Tho bill, as Introduced by Mr. Gray provides for tho creation of a board of trustoes for tho fund named and that stops bo taken looking to tho establishment of such an institu tion either at Salem or Portland nnd tho purposo of tho proposed amend ment is to socuro the money for tho Portland lnstlutlon, which, it is con tended, is tho only Institution In tho stato that can bo conBtruod to bo of that character.

POOL SELLING DECISION But Hard to Tell What the Court Has Decided Holding charter or city of Port land does not purport to confer ex cluslvo Jurisdiction to provont gam bling houses, and as u crlmo of gain ing was recognized at common law. circuit court had no Jurisdiction in enso at bar, judgmont of. A. L. Frn zcr In caso or Stato vs. William M. Ayros, bottor known as tho pool sell ing enso. Was ufllrmcd by tho bu promo court today. vDofenso coutendod that pool soil ing was not Included within tho cat egory of crimes sot forth In tho spe cial gambling law of tho state, and that prosecution could not stand un dor that Btntuto, nnd the court. In nu opinion by .TiiHtlco Mooro, holds that any gamo of chanco In which n dovlco Is usod Is gambling; that pool soiling, as set out in tho Indictment, was a dovlco, and that tho kcoplng of n placo for tho salo of pools on horses by, which monoy or proportv is stakod on tho result of a nice is tho maintaining of a gambling housu, but concludes with tho holding that from tho maunor of Its use a pool ticket cannot bo classed ob d gam bling devlco, nnd that tho Belling of pools doos not como within tho act. Inasmuch, however, ns tho con tending partlos havo treated tho crlmo as having boon committed within tho limits of tho city of Port land, tho remedies betwoen tho stato and city Is construed as concurrent and tho conviction will stand. Under this decision selling pool tickets Is not gambling undor tlrj Btato law, Jienco selling pools at tho stato fair cannot bo stopped.
