State Officials Find Orange County Casss a White Elephant on Their HandsPlaced There by ex-Gov. Hanly. DUE TO RAID Oil FRENCH LICK RESORT Gambling Paraphernalia is Confiscated Sixty-Three Separate Cases Will Have to Be Tried 756-Jurors Will Be Required, But Will Be Hard to Find in the County. TIMES' BUREAU AT THE STATU CAPITAL,. Indianapolis, Ind., June 10. On June 22 a notable series of lawsuits will be placed on trial in Orange county, a series that the state oincials find Is a white elephant on their hands. During the Hanly administration Hanly made a raid on the gambling places at French Lick and one of the results was the filing of sixtythree indictments against Thomas Dee ry and the seizure of many pieces of gambling furniture and paraphernalia. All of this apparatus has been in stor age at Paoli eve,r since, and the affidavits have all this time been hanging over Deery. They are all before a Justice of the peace. Deputy Attorney General White is going to Paoli to assist in the prosecutions under these affidavits, and he dreads the job, because it will be almost an endless one. Must Try Slxty-thre Cases. Whether Governor Hanly had It dono that way or not, each affidavit la based on the possession of Deery of one certain article. For Instance, one affidavit charges him with having In his pos session certain slot machines. Another charges a certain faro table. Another charges another certain faro table. Another charges some other article, and so on throughout the entire sixty-three. Now, before a piece of gambling apparatus may be destroyed by the officers, the person in whose possession it was found must be found guilty by a court or jury. It is pointed out that in this case there must be a separate trial on each charge. Therefore, if Deery is convicted on one affidavit, the constable may take out and destroy a certain table. If convicted on another affidavit he may destroy a certain slot machine, and so on. This will be a tedious proposition. 75(5 Jurors Are Xettleil. But the main trouble will be with obtaining juries to try the cases. It Is fully expected that Deery will demand a Jury in each case. It will bo necessary ofr the constable to go out in Orange county and rako the hills with a fine tooth comb to get a jury for one case. The entire sixty-three cases will require 750 "jurors, and it is safe to say that there will not be found 756 men in Orange county who are eligible to serve on a jury in the gambling cases. Nearly every man in the county has made up his mind one way or the other on the subject of French Dick gambling, and it is said that most of the men of Orange county are not much opposed to it. They say gambling In the valley brings monied people to the health resorts and that they leave their money there, thus benefiting the people who live in Orange county.

On and Off Chat About Fat The society reporter picked up the following gem at Madame Brewster's not twenty-four hours ago. One of her millionaire customers asked the fam ous costumcr how she kept her figure in such superb shape. "You habituallv eat and drink heartilj, and even thoughtlessly, not to say riotiously at times." she complained, "whereas I live like a hermit. Yet I can't keep slim, and apparently you can't get fat." "Guilty," replied the fashion czarina. "I admit I don't fatten up nor do I thin down, hut it is because I hve the power, my dear Mrs. (the name almost slipped out), to say to my fat 'Thus far and no further.' I don't exercise nor diet nor run any danger of wrinkles or stomach trouble either. Here Is the secret." She wrote a few words on a slip of paper and handed It to her questioner. "Get that filled at the druggist's," she concluded, "take a teaspoonful after meals and at bedtime and you will never get any fatter than you want to be. You can take off a pound a day with this recipt, if you want to." Being fat herself and fully alive to the tremendous value of these statements to fat folks everywhere, the society reported committed an unpardonable society sin; she peeped over the lady's shoulder and this Is what she saw: For Excess Fat, simplest, safest, cheapest, most helpful recipt of any: One-half ounce Marmola. i, ounce Fluid Extract Cascara APomatic, 3 ounces Peppermint AYater.
