PASSING OF
"CANnELD"
Interesting Personality of the
"Biggest Gambler' in the
World"-Man Who Prr
vided Palaces and Luxur
ies for Devotees of the
Goddess of Chance Like
Others of Prominence, He
Had His Day, and It Is
Over.
New York. Soldiers and statesmen
of international fame this country has
produced in numbers; artists, invent
ors, lawyers, athletes and let it not
be overlooked! golf players have
sprung from this country into world
wide fame with gratifying frequency.
But of that class in distinction we
have produced only one gambler,
Richard -A. Canfield. He is passing.
Last week the "For Sale" sign was
nailed upon his Saratoga place, and
the owner lias announced that he las
"turned his last curd."
Bearing in mind that the Monte
Carlo .gambling establishment is con
ducted by a stock company, it is per
missible to sa3 that for the past dozen
years Richard A. Canfield has been
- the biggest gambler in the world, says
the New York Times.
It was inevitable that romance
should have mixed many of the colors
in which Canfield has been painted:
he has been pictured as a scholar of
more than ordinary intellectual abil
ity; as a judge of art who would be a
valuable aid to a Paris Salon hanging
committee; as a conversationalist of
brilliant parts; as John Oakhurst and
a Jack Hamlin, dear to readers of
Bret Harte. Well, he is not all of
these, but he is something of each.
Canfield's Early Career.
Fiction has also been busy with
Canfield in the matter of his early
career. It may be said that he njver
did for study for the church, the law,
or medicine; nor did he begin a prom
ising career ia banking. As a matter
of fact, he was a young man when, in
1S79, he opened a gambling house in
Providence. This he seems to have
conducted with much skill in escaping
publicity for half a dozen years. But
in July, 1SS5, Canfield was arrested
in .Providence and charged with being
a. common gambler. Possibly a loser
at his game experienced a change of
heart as to the wickedness of playing
for gain (and losing) and complained
to the authorities. Canfield pleaded
guilty- to -the charge. He has always
asserted that he entered the plea on
an agreement that he would be sen
tenced only to pay a fine. But he was
sentenced to, and served, six months'
imprisonment in the Cranston jail.
After that Canfield came to New
York, and within a short time the ven
turesome began to hear of a safe,
quiet place where undivided surpluses
could be invested at roulette or poker.
A suave and responsible man was in
charge; he preferred to play at a rea
sonable limit, but could be persuad
ed to raise the limit, or, if one came
panting to part with his surplus, a
private game could be arranged un
hampered by any limit whatever.
Along these agreeable lines the fame
and fortune of "Dick" Canfield grew
in Gotham.
Whistler, the famous artist, was
painting the famous gambler's por
trait; select upper Bohemian circles
in London and Paris delighted to en
tertain the modern combination of
John Oakhurst and Jack Hamlin.

LAPPS ON THE DECREASE.
And with Them the Reindeer is Grow
ing Constantly Scarcer.
The Lapps are decreasing in num
ber, says the Philadelphia Record.
The most sanguine estimate of the
numbers of the entire race in Nor
way, Sweden and Russian does not
place them above 54,000. By some
the number is palced far lower on the
strength of trustworthy data. In Nor
botten the number of Lapps is 3,000,
of whom 2,500 are nomad Lapps, and
500 families have abandoned their
wandering habits,- have built habita
tions here and there and have endeav
ored, with more or less success, to
imitate the life of the Swedish set-'
tier.
That the race must die out even
tually is certain, and its diminution
nay be very speedy, though its com
plete extinction may be still far off,
since there is no race that can pos
sibly take' its place on the reindeer

I Also: ia New York, first ia the.
clubs, tnea along Broadway, -atoms
were heard of almost fabulous sums
woa aad lost at Canfield's games.
At first there was nothing scandal
ous nothing considered so, at least
in these- stories. They were told and
re-told simply as illustrations of the
way life was lived in little old New
York. If a young man could afford to
celebrate-his twenty-first birthday by
losing 160,000 at Canfield's, why what
a very rich young man he must be,
aad how lucky Canfield!
But some oae cut the string. On
the evening of "Dec. 1, 1902, Police In
spector Brooks, aided and directed
by District Attorney Jerome, smashed
in the doors and windows, most of the
other wood and glass and some of the
stone and brick of the front of Can
field's place in search of evidence upon
which Canfield could be convicted of
being a common gambler.
The outcome was, as most readers
will recall, that 4he court said that
Banker Lcwisohn must be nice to
Mr. Jerome, and answer his questions,
and if Reginald Vanderbilt wanted
ever again to enjoy the glories of New
York, he, too, must submit to a con
versation, not all questions, with Mr.
Jerome. Then Canfield showed that he
bad the principles romance ascribes
to the gambler of the first class; he re
turned to New York, placed himself
within the focus of Mr.' Jerome's eye
glasses and said, "Stop bothering my
patrons; I'll plead guilty." And he did,"
and paid a fine of $1,000 for being a
common gambler."
Transferred to Saratoga.
That was the passing of Canfield
from New York city. But he was the
proprietor of the Saratoga club, the
greatest resort gambling place in the
country. This clubhouse is a substan
tial building of brick and stone built
in 1S69 by John Morrisey. who had
been a prize fighter, a member of con-tos-.
rnliti'-n ?-:d nt:mb!cr. The
club Morrisey conducted inherited ro
mantic traditions, i- r t had been
founded in the carl' days of Sara
toga's splendor. Even before Morrisey
trained for his first ring fights, belles
and gallants from the furtherest cor
ners of the country gathered at Sara
toga to "take the waters," to drive, to
promenade, to flirt a little and bet a
little.
Only a little time before Jerome was
moved by a great wish to inspect the
inside of the house next to Delmon
ico's. Canfield disclosed his Saratoga
plans. At that time Richard T. Wil
son. Jr., had newly taken an interest
in horse racing. To him and William
C. Whitney Canfield suggested the
revival of Saratoga in all its ancient
glory. -Nature had done more than
her share; it remained only for art.
backed by a good-natured check book
to make Saratoga a second Monte
Carlo plus Ascot Mr. Canfield is a
convincing talker, and he had eager
listeners. Other men prominent in
turf matters came into the venture; a
majority of the stock of the old Sara
toga Racing association was bought,
the old place rejuvenated and made ,
splendid under the fostering finances

Made Place Beautiful.
Canfield enlarged the-clubhouse, re
decorated and refurnished it; bought
adjoining land until he had a park of
11 acres, where there were paths.
bordered by thousands of plants, wind
ing about fields and forests beautified
by fountains and statues. There was
promise of all that Monte Carlo of
fered. Leading off from Canfield's
vast gambling salon was a magnifi
cent dining-room patronized by those
who won to celebrate by those who
lost for consolation. The great park
was kept up at a cost of $25,000 a
year; the clubhouse was made attract

been reckoned with. We .mean the
decrease of the herds of tame rein
deer. This has been going on in the last
quarter of a century with striking
rapidity. In one district alone in the
last twelve years, the reindeer have
diminished from an estimated 30.000
to an estimated 7,000. This decrease
is explained variously. The com
monest and most plausible explana
tion, which carries the authority of
men well qualified to judge, is that
the demand for reindeer flesh which
has been brought nearer to the Lapp
by the opening of the Bohemian rail
way, has tempted them to part with
the deer at a rate too rapid for their
production.
The herd of reindeer, which are tak
en off the high fjaell down to their
winter quarters, are now within four
or five days of Stockholm and there
is a good demand for. reindeer flesh.
It Is said that the Lapp, who is no
more able to resist a. strong drink
than any other half-civilized: man, is
piled freely with brandy, and injthat
state will part with his reindeer for

Possibly, being a gambler, he called
this something "bad luck." There
was bad luck elsewhere. Canfield had
made a fortune in Wall street as a
member of the so-called Reading pool.

been unsuccessful. The men who

Saratoga.
, , Its Glories Departed.
Canfield opened the clubhouse dining
room this season, but it was not lib
erally patronized; the people who
cared to dine there wanted the fun of
looking through the opened doors at
-the gamblers. But the only gambling
going on because of the questionings
was in a retired room on an upper
floor.
It was all outlay, little income. Can
field could well repeat his best wit
ticism: "I lose more money in Wall
street than I can make at my legit
mate business."
Canfield the gambles, was passing.
It was not in his nature to blink at
the fact. There was something op
posing him he could not fight, could
not corrupt, could not call off. Did he
know what it was? Possibly it was
not in his nature to ask questions as
to what directs fate. But one morn
ing recently there was a black and
yellow sign nailed on the Saratoga
clubhouse, the last gambling place
owned by Richard Canfield, and it
read:
"This plot of ground and all

Inches of Time.
Beware of losing or wasting inches
oi time they are the little foxes that
run away with many days. So much
can be done in them, and with them
often the very things for which we
sigh hopelessly. Fill them, every one.
Keep something handy something
that fits the interval. Remember a
famous law book was written because
a lord chancellor chose not to be idle
throughout the 15 minutes his wife
made him wait each day for dinner.
Recall, too, all the men, noble and
eminent, who have climbed to the
heights by saving inches of time. All
of us cannot hope to become likewise
eminent but we can reasonably and
easily make ourselves happy with
things wrought - in the fragmentary
moments which we might unthriftily

"GONE TO THE DEVIL."
.
London Inn Responsible for Origin of
Common Saying.
The old inns of England have been
responsible for the origin of many
common sayings. Ah instance of this
is the proverbial phrase "He has
.gone to the devil." On Fleet street,
London, near Temple Bar, was once a
tavern which was known by the strict
ly old-fashioned name, "The Devil and
Saint Dunstan." It was famous for its
good dinners and excellent wines, and
received- a large patronage from the
lawyers of Temple Bar.
It was familiarly known as "The
Devil," and when a lawyer left his
office to go there he usually left a no
tice on his door, "Gone to the Devil."
There were some who patronized the
tavern to the neglect of their business,
and the notice was so regularly exhib
ited on their doors that it finally came
to be used to characterize the man
who was losing his grip and going to
. destruction. The Sunday Magazine.

"Naturally I have since used Postum

a marked benefit where coffee has been

"I observed a curious fact about
Postum when used among mothers. It
greatly helps the flow of milk in cases
where coffee Is inclined to dry it up,
and where tea causes nervousness.
"I find trouble in getting servants to
make Postum properly. They most
always serve it before it has been
boiled long enough. It should be boiled
15 to 20 minutes after boiling begins

"It was while we were wrestling
with the pure food bill at Washing

home, written by a man-from whom I
bought a big quantity of maple sirup
each year. He urged me to fight for
the pure food bill. Now, I couldn't
help remembering, to save myv life,
that this man bought five barrels of
brown sugar at the opening of the
maple molasses season. So I wrote
him a note suggesting that advocacy

from a man who bought five barrels
of brown sugar before beginning the
