One Of the most interesting types on
the American track is the professional
money lender. Money lending is abb
solutely forbidden, and so the entire
transaction must be conducted sub
rosa, but If person who is on goes
broke and he has some article Of jew
elry of value with him 1t Is easy for
him to realize money on 1t.
The lender is an irreproachably
dressed person who sits on the grand
stand with the rest of the crowd and is
known in his true colors only to the
habitues of the track. A man who
wants some capital makes an unobtru-
sive sign to him and twirls a ring he
may be wearing at the time. Shortly
afterward both will proceed to a res
taurant, where, for the benefit of on
lockers, they will greet each other as
ordinary acquaintance. The exchange
is then made over the drink they order;
the loan broker has the ring and the
bettor his capital. If the latter cashes
In on the next race he will return, the
money and the agreed upon premium
and will receive back his ring.-From
