The accused was convicted of operating a lottery, known as the "number game." The evidence set out in the petition for certiorari, together with the documentary evidence submitted in the answer of the trial judge, authorized the verdict. There were no special assignments of error in the petition for certiorari; and the overruling of the certiorari was not error.

Judgment affirmed. MacIntyre and Gardner, JJ., concur.
