Den man Thompson,s Loss.

"Denman Thompson has lost 500, 900
at faro during the summer"
This was the big topic among the
theatrical gossips, and it kept them busy.
They talked about it under their breath
in quiet corners, and it was as good as a
luncheon to many of them. The story
started with the gamblers who frequent
the corridors of the hotels on upper
Broadway, and it was not long before it
got into more respectable society. 1t
was to the effect that Thompson had
male $120, 900 last season at the Academy
of Music. When the season closed he
had q round hundred thousand in the
Band of the Metropolis.
Instead of going to his place at Swan
sea he remained in town, and to make
up for the excitement of the theater, he
took to that of the green cloth. He got
in with the syndicate of gamblers who
run the establishment at No. 818 Broad
way, and at various times since the let
of May parted with all his money. This
place is known as the Central Club, and
is frequented by some of the most sub
stantjal men in town. It is luxuriously
fitted up hell, and games of all kinds arf
kept on there without let or hindrance
from the authorities. Thompson's skill
at cards is we'll known among the theat
rical people as we'll as gamblers, and he
is one OF the best judges Of winning
horses that 60 to the races. He did no
drop his money all at once, it was said
He frequently pocketed large sums @
