only use for the pres as to print bogus lottery tickets The woman started vis lblj as this little sensation was sprung and her attorney Frank Leach who had devoted two dajs to trying to keep all mention of lotterj tickets out of the record promptly shut the witness up with vigorous objections About 6000 Little Louisiana tickets were printed every month said Homer after his fair accuser had succeeded In landing him in the County Jail Miss Burdlck took charge of them and sold them 1 think mostly In San Trancisco The printing of the tickets began in 189S and was kept up regularly every month until last June when I went East I suppose that the printing was done somewhere else after that I was to be paid 115 a month for my part of the work but did not get it and when Miss Burdlck fell

as Joe Johnson but I do not believe that was his real name I think his name Is Upson Very often Miss Burdlck and Johnson would print their own tickets but they could not run such a complicated press as Is required for the work and they had to call me in to help them hen the scheme was first broached to me I was told that the bogus tickets were for distribution on the streets of San Francisco Miss
