TO INDICT PROGRESSIVE EUCHRE
PLAYERS.

Judge A. w. Fife instructed the grand
Jury at Thomasyille, Ga, to indict the
progressive euchre players of the town
who played for prizes. He gave the jury
the following charge:
II am aware that progressive euchre
playing is very popular in society circles,
and is played in the houses of some of
the most prominent citizens, and by some
of the most estimable ladies of your ac-
oua1ntance; but that does not excuse it.
The law specifies that whenever playing
cards is INDUCED in for consideration
whether it be money or prizes of intrinsic
value, the same is gambling, illegal, and
punishable with as little mercy as that
extended to the most hardened crimi-
nails l am aware that it is asking a
good deal of you gentlemen, to take this
matter, under consideration, but you must
do so in order to faithfully discharge your
oaths as jurors"
