 Davy Johnson. as he was known from coast to coast. was taken ill several weeks ago, but his illness was not regarded as serious until within week ago.
 You talk about your plungers and betting men," said one of his friends last night. but this country has nev- CT produced another such a man.
 Johnson was probably the most ven- turesome gambler who ever operated unusual thing for him to bet up to s50,O00 on an event, and on what he was won't to call dull afternoon hlS custom was to toss a cent for stakes of s1000 a side.
 Time and again during his career as plunger he suffered reverses It was no unusual thing for him at times during the. last twenty years to awake after a bad afternoon at the races or losing sitting at cards and find himself with markers of $50, ,OOO staring him in the face
 In 1903. after particularly disas- trous period of betting, Johnson sold his Turf Association seat for s3,5OO and announced himself through with gambling, forever Incidentally, he asserted at that time that during the previous year he had lost $1, ,0O0, ,000
 At one time in his career he found himself compelled to give three notes for s50,000 each in lieu of cash for gambling debts His note holders knew that the money would be paid if. some unforeseen accident did not prevent He eventually cleared up the indebtedness and soon afterward took another fling at the horses, this time at Sheepshead Bay.
 He made a plunge play on a horse named Alcedo, belonging to Jimmy Mccormick, which was a starter in the Suburban, in which Ethelbert was the favorite. Alcedo was quoted at 10 to 1, Johnson started beeting s1,OO0 a crack at that price and quickly drove the price down to to 1. In this plunge he won s5O,0o0 Later on he won a like amount on the horse Fire Eater.
