.RACETRACK PLUNGERS.
JERE DUNN SAYS THEY ARE BORN AND NOT
MADE.
They Are the Most Daring BsttOrs on the Turf To-

A race track plunger, like poet or
gambler, is born and not made. Inc
gaming instinct must be inherent in the
man who would tempt fate, as well as
certain mental and physical qualities.
His mental makeup should be of that
alert, keen, perceptive order which VIII
enable him to see points OF vantage In
any kind of game he may be engaged
in and to Immediately turn them TO ac-
count. The man who permits his Judg-
ment to be biased or influenced oy his
own fears or By the opinions OF others
will never make successful plunger.
The first requisite Of a plunger Is
nerve. He must have what sportsmen
term heart" as well as head. He must
be able TO stand big loss as well as a
handsome winning with the same phil

of the encounter.

Indeed Mike Dwyer has in 10 years
won and lost-principal won-S2, OOO,-
600 on the race track. On his favorite
horses aione-Luke Blackburn, HiEdoo
and Hanover-he cleared something like
$500, 900. They were the best horses
the DIVER stable 9ever produced and
seldom lost race. Each or them won
great events, like the Brooklyn handi-
cap, Suburban and Metropolitan stakes,
with scarcely an effort.
Probably the most unique and daring
bet Mike Dwyer ever made was when
he placed $500 against $4,000 on his
famous mare, Miss Woodford, when she
raced that equally famous thorough
bred, George Kenney. some years ago,
Kepney won after bruising race, and
DIVER took his loss with as much sang
froid as if 1t were 81 he had placed on
the result. Only about fortnight ago
Dwyer lost a wager OF $4,000 which
he had ventured against $4,000 on
single race. Not a whit dismayed by
this catastrophe, he Immediately put
up another $50, 900 against $4,000 upon
another race aud won. Fortune was
kind to him in the other events, and he
''won OUT" as the boys put it, on the
day.
johnny Campbell, owner OF Diablo,
the Brooklyn handicap winner, cleared
Sl1O, OO6 by the gallant performance OF
his game little horse on that eventful
day In MAY when Diablo burst through
geld of the best horses in the country
and carried off the SIS, 600 purse. Camp
bell had backed his horse in the winter
books and obtained as high as so and
100 TO one against him.
Gerge w. Smith, or Pttsburg Phil, as
he is popularity known, is lad OF but
o. years aud the youngest better at the
race track. He is also one OF the mer-
REST and most successful. he never
hesitates a moment TO put up $4,000,
500. 900 or $50, 900, or even more, If he
thinks he has "a good thing" He
cleared sos, 600 on Terrifer, when the
fine animal gave Lowlander a fine race
for first money in the Suburban handi-
cap recently. Terrfier sold low in the
pools, and Phil was enabled to get as
high as 10 to l against him for place.
Phil's greatest coup, however, was
made at sheepshead Bay three years
ago. He had two horses, named King
Csdmus and Merry Monarch, entered
in the two principal events of the day.
The bookmakers thought so poorly Of
Phirs 'nags" that they offered odds OF
80, 40 and so to against them. Phil
eagerly snapped up all such offers, and
nearly ruined dozen bookmakers In
all he pocketed $4,000 on that event
full day.
Had not Pierre Lorillard, the mill
ionare tobacconist met with the
hardest kind of hard luck he
would not only have captured the
Brooklyn handicap, but in all likeli-
hood would have Melted the largest
amount that any sportsman has ever

boars come in and jump over hurdles like
pet dogs, A horse on iull gallop was rode
around the ring many times by lion,
which would jump from horses back to
large pedestal under which the horse ran
and would wait for the horse to come
around again and then spring on his back
and ride around again as gallant as a cir
Gus rider could do.

reluctantly, mounts large ball and rolls

two hounds with front feet on chariot and
hind feet on floor, act as footmen, while
the procession goes around the ring. A
large pyramid is formed of fifteen or
more animals. This wonderful training is
done by kindness. There are times when
tiger or lion will growl little and bristle
up and you hardly know whether they
will act or devour some one. But the
trainer gives them a piece of meat or
lump Of sugar, and thus, like a naughty
child at the table, they are coaxed into
