TURNER TURNED A JACK.
Senior Senator Plays 8evon-Up With
Frank Grave For 92, 600,
Senator George Turner and hi former
law partner, , Prank Graves, wer th
parti to a stiff gam of s even-up not
long ago; th stake being ftSOO for
ingl game of sevea points.' The result
of th gam waa to determine settlement
between the two of their relations as law
partner. It appear that during the
many year which Senator Turner and
Mr, Graves war associated in Hh prac
tice of law they never took th troubl
to atrlk a trial balaao as to tb Arm's
buatness, . ' ,k- i
It was a caa of when either-one of
th Arm 1 needed -money -he-went out and
eolloted a f-from .Mm client ' (and
they had many), and. ftaquantly It waa
the case that through neglect the ollo-
tioa wa not repojted to. their bookkeep
er. -The result was that when, th .firm
dissolved partnership and tt wa sought
to arrive at a settlement it was 'found
that Ue' books wobld aot balanc by
about ,Mo,- -;Wyf "- '
Neither member of th firm was pre
pared to ay. he had the leng end of tha
sack, and at the suggestion of Senator
Turner it was decided that they play a
gam of seven-up, seven points, to deter
mine who should pay the other the $2,600.
The game proceeded to the point where
each had six point, and It waa Turner's
deal. He turned a spade for trumps.
Graves picked vp his hand and' found th
Ion deuce ot spade in bis hand. As
Turner picked up his hand and scanned
it over he ohuokled audibly. Graves was
up against it, and for ull three minute
h sat glaring At hi opponent, trying to
read lit his tac what his band contained,
and whether he should stand on tb
deuce or run th card for another trump.
Finally, throwing hia card fac down
ward s, he exclahned: ' '
'From tha aria' of your you mut
have a cinch. Run tha cards " ;
The Senator did so and turned up - a
Jeck, putting -him out' H. then exposed
his first six cards, and.-much to Graves'
dlegust, -they- did tiot contain a -single
