"PiTTsBURG PHIL"

g OMETHING LIKE FIFTEEN years
~ ago young man who was cutting
cOTks i'm a Pittsburg factory for about
$50 a week walked into a pool room and
bet 81 on horse race at odds of so 10 l.
Unfortunately for him, the horse on
which he wagered won. The young man
cut no more corks. He died in North
Carolina Wednesday at the age of 40
years. The life he led had killed him
at an age when most men. if they have
taken any sort of care of themselves.
are just beginning TO know what the
joy of living is.
The name of this young man was
George Smith. He was better known
as "Pittsburg Phil, the PIunger." Smith
would wager thousands of dollars on a
single race. During his few years on
the turf he won and lost several for
tunes. His money came to him without
effort He spent it as freely as it came.
Smith died possessed of some thousands
Of dollars, but for a year he had not
had the least capacity for enjoying life.
1t has been said that he was as emo
tionless as an Indian. This is not true
He was as full of emotions as the aver
age man, but he repressed them with
all the effort of an iron will A man
who stood close to Smith during a race
on which Smith had wagered thou
sands, described him as "a hundred and
forty pounds Of ice" Men all around
who had wagered anywhere from 81 10
$1,000, whooped like crazy people as the
horses tore around the track Smith
had more at stake than any of them
but he never moved a muscle. a stran-
ger would have thought that the out
come meant nothing TO him whatever.
Smiths horse lost, ia this instance by
few inches. He manifested no trace
of disappointment, just as he would
