In the politics of his town and county,
Thompson built his race track over a
marsh after company. Of New York
capitalists had backed out of the enter

many other things. Naturally Glouces-

acters, between whom and the law the
entente cordiale does not exist.
Thompson's political influence has
steadily increased despite the numerous
fights that have been made against him
and his methods by the people of New
Jersey. and he probably has as much in
fuence at Trenton as any man in the state.
1t is even seriously asserted that he as
pires to q seat in the United States senate
two years hence. Thompson lives in a
magnificent house on the Gloucester
river shore, and with all his faults he is
said to be very charitable man, who
never refuses aid to the truly unfortu.
nate who apply to him. He is q man of
wonderful nerve and is an imperturba-
BILE bettor. He is jolly in his manner,
and many of his most ardent henchmen
are men who have fought him bitterly
in the past.
The keepers of city poolrooms all over
the country are naturally great admir-
ers of Thompson, for he has been the
means of giving them the opportunity
to lure the seductive dollar from the
pockets Of their patrons 12 months in
the year, whereas under the old arrange

Quoted on UNANIMOUSLY unfair principles,

Bettors seldom get the odds they should

of IS to shots it would be difficult

odds of more than 500 to /, and yet %

cited to prove exactly the reverse. One
of the most successful lodges was re-
Gently worked in New York by tout"
who bled clerks and other frequenters of
the snowstorm poolrooms freely until his
trick was exposed.
His method was to stand in front Of a
down town hotel, accost those whom he
had frequently met in the city poolrooms
and confide to them that certain horse
had just won his race at Gloucester or
Guttenburg. He stated that he had sub
sidized the operator in the hotel, who was
enabled to get the reports of the races
from to 10 minutes ahead of the pool
rooms. If the victim still doubted, the
swindler would make certain motions
with his handkerchief. These would be
answered in kind by man standing at
a window inside the building.
The lamb" would rush off to one of
the many nearby poolrooms to put all
of his money on what he considered a
sure thing after having of course prom

winnings to the rascal who had so kindly
given him the Tip" Another victim
coming along would be given the name
of different horse, and so on Thus, if

no matter how the race went.
The others would generally be ashamed
to admit that they had been so credulous
and dishonorable as to attempt to bet on
race which they believed had already
been won, and would therefore keep
quiet. Thus this precious rascal pursued
his nefarious practices until one victim
less thin skinned than his predecessors
exposed him. This is but one of the
many tricks connected with winter rae
