Famous Gamblers Career.

The weight of evidence, or rather asser
ton, is that Garcia, the famous gambler
is indeed dead. He was a Spaniard, and
first came into fame as Il great player AT
Homburg, where he arrived with a small
capital some 5,O0O or 10000 francs. A
steady run of fortune in his favor incrcas-
cd his capital to half million and made
him the lion of that place. M. Blanc,
(whO died two years ago. enjoyc& tilt OF
this titanic sort, ami was also kcenly alive
To the advantages of a gigantic advertise
ment, hence he gave the gambler the priv.
ilege OF playing five times the limit, or
maximum, SO that on each roll of the
ball ST., 600 depends. After two month S
struggle Garcia lett Homburg in his own
carriage, drawn by four horses, with the
the whole town cheering him, and some.
thing like 2,5OO,OOO francs in his posses
sion. He went home TO Spain, built a
church, gave aims literally, and took an
oath never to gamble again. This oath he
kept for two years, living in princely fash
ion in Spain, but spending the gaming
season on the Rhine, watching tho players
with serene pleasure. One day at Baden
the duke of Morney met him and asked
asked him to play few stakes, that he
might not see something of the wonderful
system by which the great gambler had
broke the bank Garcia declined and
exclaimed that he had renOunceG play
forever, to which the duke replied with
something of a sneer, that probably he had
been prudent in doing so. Garcia nettled
at the remark, put down a note aud lost
it. and another, and lost that. The duke
laughed so tauntingly at this that Garcia
went to his hotel, stuffed his pockets with
notes and gold, and returned to the play
room. When it closed at night he had lost
nearly 800 600; in a few days the whole
$500. 600 had vanished. The CalzadO af-
fair followed when Garcia was Imprisoned
for card-sharping; this ruined him finally.
Ere the play stopped at Saxon les Bains he
hung round the place, rendering instruc-
tions to inexperienced players; afterwards
he haunted Monaco, where however, he
was refused access to he gaming Ia
bles when he had money. So he died in
poverty.
