The case of the state of Idaho
against Jesse r. Sears, proprietor of
the Turf Exchange in the city, was ar
gued before Judge Dunn this fore
noon. The charge against Sears is
the keeping and maintaining of
gaming house, and the information
is preferred under the common law.
When the case was called the defense
waived the right to a jury, and when
the state sought to introduce evil
dence in the case, H. P. knight, the
defendants attorney demurred to the
information on the ground that 1t did
not state facts suficient to constitute
a public ofFense, and on this point the
case was submitted to Judge Dunn
for decision.
UNIQUE Law Point Involved.
While the state has a law covering
the subject Of gambling in general II
has no statute covering the subject
OF conducting q turf exchange, and II
was by reason of the absence Of such
a law that Prosecuting Attorney
Potts had the defendant indicted un-
der the common law. There Is a state
statute providing that wherever a
criminal offense is not covered by a
state Law that the common law with
relation to It shall be In force. and
the prosecuting attorney contended
that in view Of the fact that the Of
tense was not covered by q state Law
that Il was therefore subject to the
common law and punishable under IL.
Attorney knight. on the other
hand, cOntended that the legislature
had passed q law covering the sub
ject OF gambling and gaming and en-

which reads:

ract, 1 think that that's what's been the
matter with me, mostly, I've been too good
and too kind, too easy. Esmy certainly
slipped a cog there, but let's pass on and
see what she says in No. 4:
Born under the seven satellites Of
Saturn, you are indeed in luck
Let us hope so. l am not up much in
astronomy, but I am willing to believe that
there's luck in being born under the seven
satellites Of Saturn. l should think there

in the form set forth In the glpsy queens

now hear what she says in No. T.

you marry and your wedding will be the
happiest in your family
Err, 'm-mm. Esmy Is a little off
again there, where she says when you
marry because, really, 1 was married
quite some time ago, but she's quite right
again about the happiness Of my married
life.
And then in No. s she tells me:
Beware Of the woman with dark hair
that writes TO YOU
"An right, Esmeralda, I'll look out for
that, too. And then in No. 3 the gipsy
queen tells me, finally:
