IN GAMBLING SCHOOL
DALMATION FINED “I don't know whether his ignorance of English is as great as his ignorance of dice,” said Mr. W. R. McKean, S.M.. in the Police Court this morning, “but the onus is on him to prove why he was there.”
It was evident that Louis Urlich, a Dalmatian, did not prove to the court’s satisfaction that he went to Batchelor’s gymnasium in Chatfield Chambers last Saturday night a short time after the detectives had taken possession, for a lawful purpose. He was charged with being found in a common gaming house and fined £1 with 10s costs. “There would have been no costs if he had appeared on Monday,” the magistrate observed.
