THE GODDESS OF CHANCE.
Gambling is Playing Any Game oi
Chance for Stakes.

1t is surprising and astonishing how
the laws of this commonwealth are
openly violated at county fairs and on
the streets of some boroughs in this
section of the state by men who pay
stipulated price for the privilege OF
''neecing" the people with a gambling
device of some kind.
Lawyer A. ]. Truitt, of Punxsutawney,
in two column article in the Punxsu-
tawney Ne,cS last week, quotes from the
laws of Pennsylvania, and decision OF
the Supreme Court of this State, on
what constitutes gambling schemes.
= Lawyer Truitt says:
Gambling is playing any game OF
chance for stakes. Betting is the lay
ing of wager on any event. Public
gambling, because of its debauching in
nuences, is crime at common law and
punishable as nuisance. Gambling in
all its forms is criminal under the laws
of the state of Pennsylvania. The
gambler, the person permitting it or
owning or leasing the premises in which
it is carried on as we'll as the person
who solicits others to go to gambling
places, are serverally criminaland liable
to punishment under our laws.
"Our lawmakers have gone to great
pains to protect the innocent from the
seductive influences of the goddess of
chance. And many of our criminal
statues impose a penalty OF fine
or Imprisonment. Therefore all
violators certainly take desperate
chances. 1t will also be seen that
our laws cover every conceivable
gambling device heretofore or which
may be hereafter invented" Wheels-oi
fortune, paddle wheels, slot machines
and all other wheels, boards, boxes, OF
other gaming instruments where cards
dice or numbers are used and for which
money or merchandise Or any Other
thingo Of value is played all make the
r.. owner, operator, tenant or solicitor
liable to the laws penalties. Not long
since judge in one of our neighboring
counties went on the grounds of an as
sociation where gambling machines
were in use and with his axe chopped
them to pieces. Many of the most sue
cessful fairs in our state will not permit
them on their grounds. The Indiana
fair is good example near home
When gambling is permitted not only
do good citizens sometimes get led as
tray but often women and children are
seen crowded around the wheel unable tC
resist the temptation to beat the ignor'
ant and innocent gambler out of his
money, Wherefore it behooyes all
good people to abstain from this evil
and not to encourage it by their pres
ence or example. And further it would
seem to be the duty of all good either
whenever and wherever he sees public
gambling to Immediately find an officer
and have him arrest the violator anG
confscate the gambling device. AnG
lastly no good citizen can afford to vio
late or break any of the laws of oui
commonwealth even if there is money
in IT,

The OIL Excitement.

Another oil we'll was struck In III cath
Township last Saturday. The well was
brought In and on the first day it made
forty barrels, but got back to twenty
barrels. On Monday it again produced
forty barrels but experts think it will
not be any larger than twenty barrel
we'll. Another well is expected to
reach the sand In day or two. Quite
number of wells are being drilled.
There is no doubt that there will be
more producing wells in the new field.
Every foot of land within reasonable
distance of the field has been leased and
prospectors are reaching out in all
directions. Whether the field will be
an extensive one remains to be seen by
furthur developments. A large por-
tion of the leases in advance of the pro-
ducing wells are being taken up by
spectators who hope to make a profit
by selling the leases to larger companies
who will operate. The northern pOr-
tion of the county has been pretty well
drilled over In search for gas territory.
Quite a number of these wells did not
produce gas in paying quantities and
they were plugged. Many of them,
were filed or partly filled up with oil
and it is quite likely that in the vicinity
where they are located new operations
will be started in the hope that the
drills will strike oil.-Brockwayville

Meeting Of Turpentine
Operators.

The East Louisiana rurpentine
Operators Association met in Cow
ington, last Saturday. and was in
session several hours, discussing
questions relative to the business
in this section. The question of
supreme interest was that OF pro.
curing skilled labor. The wages.
paid in this section are the best IN
the State, and a large part of the
labor is experienced, and yet the
members of the Association feel
that better sesults will follow the
policy of il Producing more and
better labor. The meeting was
presided over by Hon. Warren
Thomas, Assessor of st. Tammany
Parish, one of the largest pro-
ducers of this section. J. w. Gun
dali was chosen Secretary. The
Secretary was instructed to corre-
spond with absent members and
spprise them of the attitude of the
meeting and the plans proposed.
This Association produces in
year over half . million dollars
worth of naval stores, and teels
that with better labor in the woods
and skilled managers at the refin-
cries this output could be largely
increased.
