is usually well known to all the play
ers and as he passes along he makes
some sign by which the players know
what symbol or square won.
Yesterday a lottery drawing took
place near Liliha street. The symbol
"a horses head" won. The agent
then walked down Liliha street with
his head barred. To the faithful this
indicated the winning number to be a
horses head" But had the police ar
rested this man for conducting lot
terry, 1t would have been impossible to
convict him. On his person they
would have found a sheet of paper
with small squares ruled off on it.
That would be all and few men could
stand up and convince a jury it was a
lottery ticket
