AND RETURN IIJE BILLS
Say £ Those Who Play for
Dish Are as Guilty of Gambling
as the Negro Who is F\ed
for Shooting Crap. \
Cprtersvilld, Ga., Jan. 15.—Judge A.
W. Fite threw a bombshell into the
ranks of the players of euchre, whist
and other games in which prizes ara
offered yesterday, when he charged
the grand jury on the crime of gamb
ling, and the practice of playing so
cial game- for prizes. The charge to
the grand jury came shortly after the
opening of Bartow superior court.
When Judge Fite had rear bed that
part of his charge that related to
gambling, a grand juror arose and
a ktd for instructions or information
in regard to the question of social
card playing for prizes and the court
replied: ‘'AH society gambling is
gam!;.ling, and to my uiiud a man
that gambles in a parlor is ju t as
guilty as the negro that shoots craps,
t said that once in Dalton in a ca e
that is now pending before the su
preme court and the newspapers had
me saying 'a man that played euchre
in a parlor was no better than a ne
gro.’ Now I did not eay that but 1
did say that anyone who [days a
same of chance for a ziuiyp, be it mon
ey or a chafing dish, is technically
as. guilty as Lha negro teat plays
aiaps. The case in Dalton that 1
mentioned lust now is still in the su
preme court, but it ought to be set
tled .for the women would hardly con
tinue to play card; for prizes if tho
supreme court should decide that it
was unlawful and if the court should
decide that it was not umawful and
then it would do nobody barm and
the case ought to be settled. I de
sire you gentlemen to look into the
question of social gambling closely.
VTou have in your power to require
anyone lu 'the town or county tio
come before you and test.,y against
anyone else, and you can pot all the
evidence you need. I hav_• brought
this matter before several grand
juries, but they have either not had
tho backbone, or the witnesses lack
ed the veracity to get it before the
coust."

A GOOD COMEDY IS COMING.
“It's All Your Fault” will be a the
Grand Next Tuesday.
When Edward R. Salter's company,
headed by Charles J. Stine and Olive
Evans in “It's All Your Fault," ap
pears at the Cratid on Wednesday,
January 23, we are to be tremendlous
ly amused at a young actor beating
the front name of Pincus, who, ac
cording to the New Yoik crit y* is
the most gifted young laugh-mt’tor
the business. Young Pincus’ last
name sounds like an explosion of gas
olino. It la one of those Russian
words in six syllables you always
skip when you see delicatessen
sign.-. The unpronounceable Pincus
Is quite as broad as he Is long and
is said to be excruciatingly funny.
Pincus Is an ox-newsboy, in fact his
stand was in Times square. New
York, right in the heart of the the
atrical district. Even as a news oy
he was a his funny little
round Jlgure right saying sell
ing mmjV a paper for him. This is
where ho was discovered and placed
on the stage.
