He is one of the few that the people who work for a living in- stead of working others ever find out about. New York {s crowded with young cut-ups from the West and South who have money that their papas have scooped up, and the way they pass out the cush is enough to make an ordinary spendthrift ery. “It's a strange thing, but when you take a kid and pass a fortune down to him he generally gets the gambling fever.

The mark who is left to follow his own inclinations lands up with an attack of vacancy in the attic and ends. his days in a foolish-house. “It would seem that a young man with a million dollars to spend would want to go and buy something with it, but the gilly who comes to New York to dissipate his fortune don’t buy anything but drinks. He throws it away in gambling. The more he has the better chance he has of losing it,. because the gamblers of this town, once they get their hooks into easy mazuma, stick closer than a coat of paint. They don’t wait for a sucker to'come around and shed either. They go out after him, and any time they don't get him—well, any time they don't! “When some man of distinction blows Into New York from some other State or some other country the newspapers put the people wise.

Davy Johnson got the confidence of the Bitters Boy and every other gambler in New York who goes after big game was sick with envy. “There are more ways of taking money away from a pilgrim in New York than by skinning it out of him with a faro layout or a roulette wheel. In the summer there are jobs put through on the race-track, there are poker parties on yachts and in summer hotels, and there are the inevitable alleged breeders who bob up serenely and suggest to the mark that he start a breeding farm.
