ANY OLD CHEFA
TICKET PROVES
HOLDER GUILTY
Time of Drawing and Name oil
Bank Not Necessary, Judge
MonSarrat'S Ruling

What Is probably the most import
ant decision in regard to gambling
ever rendered in the police court was
made this morning. when Judge James
w. Monsarrat ruled that the prosecu-
ton does not need TO show what bank
chefa ticket Is on or when the draw.
ing will take place in order to secure
conviction under the ordinance relat.
ing to having lottery tickets in posses
sion.
Judge Monsarrat stated in rendering
his decision that the possession of a
lottery ticket was priIna facie evidence
Of guilt. and that the defendent must
prove that the ticket is for a drawing
which is past, or Is on bank not in
existence, In order to secure an ac-
nuittal.
Going to Supreme Court.
Attorney w. T. Rawiins, represent
ing several chefa defendants, took ex-
ception to the ruling and declared
that he would take the cases to the
supreme court
Rawlins, in the case of George Lobo.
raised the point that the prosecution
had not shown that the ticket found
In his clients possession depended
upon a game Of chance. Testimony,
he said, had been introduced to prove
u was a chefa ticket. but IL the draw
ing had already taken place 1t was not
a lottery ticket any longer. He in;
sisted 1t was necessary for the prose
cution to show the ticket might still
draw a prize, and prove what bank II
was issued from. This point has been
fought over for months, while chefa
cases piled upon the calendar. and was
settled this morning as far as the 20
lice court Is concerned by the decision
Of Judge Mopsarrat.
Decision Of Big Importance,
O. r. Chillingworth, assistant city
attorney, and Arthur McDuffe, chief OF
detectives, both said today that bsd
Judge Monsarrat decided It must be
proved what bank a chefa ticket was
issued by before conviction could be
secured, Il would leave them utterly
helpless as far as stopping lotteries ia
concerned. Chefa tickets are nm
marked, and as there Is no possible
way Of proving where they are issued.
any other decision than the one made
today would have practically licensed
chefa playing.
Thirty cases, some Of them first
brought up as long ago as July, have
been held over from time to time nm
til decision was made ON the point
brought up by Attorney Rawlins. All
Of these were on the calendar today,
and fines of S25 and costs ware inn.
posed ina number Of the cases. j
lew were continued, and this after.
noon the court Is still taking up the
rest of the cases and in most instances
Is imposing the usual fine.

VALDEZ ? U W [ R Fl | H I |S
 ENDED

The electric light war between the two companies operating at Valdez is at an end. The stockholders of the Valdez Electric company voted at a stockholders meeting to consolidate with the Alaska Water Light & Tele- phone Company upon terms that have been agreed upon by the two com. panies. Nothing has been signed up as yet but the agreement has been made and all that ls necessary Is to draw up the necessary papers.
 The A. w.. l.. & T. Co., agrees. how. ever, to operate under the 1O-cent franchise of the Valdez Electric, which is third less than the rates in force prior to the new company entering the field. This, however, is two cents a kilowatt hour higher than the present rates of the new company.

 DIVIDEND

At recent meeting of the directors of the Alaska Steamship Co. the reeu. lar quarterly dividend of 1h per cent was declared and in addition thereto an extra special dividend was ordered. the two being payable June 30. With the quarterly dividend of Ja per cent paid in March this makes a total of s per cent paid during the first half of 1915 on capital stock of this company. amounting to $3,00O,OOO. The an- nouncement of dividend caused much favorable comment in financial cir. cles, as no better indication could be give2 to show the excellent standing and efficient management of this com pany, as well as pointing to the thor. oughly good conditions now prevailing in Alaska. The company's fleet Is now fully engaged in the traffic of the north, and conditions in that territory point to continuance of unusual traf- flc offerings. Many factors contribute to Alaska's increased traffic. Chief of the reasons is the steady and heavy southbound tonnage In copper ore, the question of southbound tonnage being of first importance to any steamship operating. The second fin importance Is the remarkable indus. trial activity in that section of which Juneau is the center. Third comes the added fishing plants in that region of which Ketchikan is the center, and, fourth, the activity of the U. s. gov ernment in constructing railroads has been followed by heavy movement of freight and passengers to Anchor age and Seward.

GERMAN WOMEN LOOKING FUR
 HUSBANDS

BERLIN, July 8.-The war has given a sudden and unprecedented im- petus to the marriage brokerage" game and advertisements for hus- bands-war invalids in many cases- were never so plentiful as at present. Many women exhibit an irrepressIble desire to get married right away and appear to be quite unconcerned about the kind of a husband they got.
 Individual women who want to get married at any cost are not the only ones however. who have taken advan- tage of the unusual situation. The more or less shady matrimonial agencies are making hay while the sun shines, and apparently stop at nothing in order to turn a question. able pfennig.
 Thus many have, in some manner, secured the names and addresses of women whose husbands have been killed at the front, and intrude upon their grief with brazen offers of sec ond husbands. The men for the most part are mere adventurers, but in a few cases are invalided soldiers, either anxious for home or beguiled into letting their names be used.

Tallahassee Democrat Pays
Tribute to Our Repre-
sentativeS.

In recent issue of the Tallahas-
see True Democrat, W. H. L. McLau-

the following tribTte to Putnam coun-
ties representatives in the Florida
legislature:
Among the many good men repre-
senting the various counties of the
State, none can boast of better men
than the good old county of Putnam.
These gentlemen are very unassum-
ing, modest and cdnservative; but
thoroughly alive to every interest of
their constituents, and of the State.
No county has sent to the capital,
men of better character, of better
Horse Sense, or, perhaps, of more
lasting influence, than these most eX-
eellent gentlemen.

" DIXIE HIGHWAY"
ROUTE UNSETTLED
Kissimmee Meeting Favors
Route via Ocala and
Leesbug.

The Putnam county delegates to the
"Dixie Highway" meeting in Kissim-
NEE last week succeeded in securing
the recommendation of the Green
Cove Springs, .Palatka, Crescent City
and DeLand route as a substitute
route. The majority at the Kissim-
NEE gathering favored the route via
Ocala, Leesburg, Orlando, Kissimmee,
Everglades and Miami. Had Volusia
and Seminole counties been represent
ed, it is likely that the meeting would
have declared for the Green Cove-Pa-
latka route.
The Putnam county delegation was
a real force at the meeting. They
made all the noise necessary and ap-
pear to have made it at about the
right time. Mr.. Rowton, who was a
member of the committee appointed
to designate route, led in the mi
nority fight for Palatka. He lost first
place there, but the chances are he
will win in the end. The highway"
will without doubt go to Jacksonville.
Once that fact is settled, the chances
are that it will steer for Miam eith-
er via st. Augustine and the east
coast, or via Green Cove Springs and
Palatka, on the west side of the St.
Johns river.
E. w. Elliott, secretary of the Pa
latka board of trade was made Sec
retary of the Kissimmee meeting. He
made the motion looking to the per-
macy of the organization there effect
ed, and which was finally established
as the Central Florida Highway Asso-
citation.
C. H. Kennerly was on his job every
minute of the time, as so also were
W. C. Norton and |. F. Babers. who
represented the Crescent City board
of trade. But the one big fight of
the meeting in the interests of the
Palatka route was put up by County
Commissioner C. E. Rowton.
