Th Jury Decided That Seven-up Wm
Purely Scientific.
. On of Mark Twain's old time sto
nes concerned the game of sevca up.
or old sledge. Some Kentucky b. )
were arrested f.r plitjinij this game
under tiie usual charse of niaylnz a
game of chuuee. .Wht-u they Were
brought before the judge their lawyer
claimed that this gume wus not a
game of chance, lut was a game of
science. The court puzzled, asked for
a suggestion, and the lawyer declared
that If a Jnry of six gamblers weil ac
quainted with the game In a scientific
way and six deacons be Impaneled
with a pack of cards their decision
ought to be determinative. So the sto
ry goes: . y ' "
"There was no disputing the fulrnesn
of the proposition. Four deacons and
the two dominies were sworn in as
the Chance Jurymen, and six Inveter
ate old seven-up professors 'were
chosen to represent the 8cience side
of the lrtsue. 1 They retired to the Jury
room.
"In nbont two hours Deacon Peters
sent into court to borrow $3 from a
friend. ' In about two hours more
Dominie MIggles sent Into court to
borrow a 'stake' from a friend. Dur
ing the next' three or four hours tUt
dominie and the other deacons sent
Into court for small loans. ;
