Judgment warranted.
Within two weeks the dare-devil
gambler had won $40,000 from the fol
lowers of the race track. The money
fairly poured Into his "book." The rest
of the "bookies" predicted that he would
go broke, but "The Black Demon" laugh
ed at their warnlnga and posted bigger
odds.
Jlioa for a Tim.
At orte time Elsfelder had $45,000 in
$20 gold pieces, and then the clsls came.
Dame Fortune withdrew her smiling
face and the "Demon" commenced to
lose. He was still the dare-devil gamD
hr. He still posted his large odds and
tR tnonev commenced to pour outside
as fast as It had entered. Several men,
whom he had in his employ commenced
to be dishonest, and in one afternoon he
lost $20,000 by the hardest Kina or iuck

won by a nose each. Kisreider tooK
very bet h could get that the favorites
would lose, and as they were backed
baavllv.. the three "noses' reduced his
capital $20,000. "
When Elsfelder went to ied tpat nignt
he slept as soundly as If he had not
lost a fortune. He figured that on the
morrow he would win all of his losings
back and more besides.
But the morrow proved different, for
In less than three days Elsfelder found
himself In a strange city with but sev
eral silver dollars out of the comfort
able fortune he at one time had In his
grasp.
Back to Portland.
"The Black Demon" was not discour
aged. He bought a ticket to Portland
and shortly after his arrival. here was
again playing faro at the Portland Club.
He borrowed $20 from a friend and In
less than an hour had $800 in checks
before him. He was still the reckless
player as before. His California expe
rience had not affected his nerve In the
least. When he arose from the faro
table he was $900 ahead, but he could
not quit. With the money In' his pocket,
ge got as far as the door, but he could
not go out. He had the fever.
"I might Just as well make It a thou
sand." he said, as he bought several
stacks.
Broke Again,
In less than an hour the young
plunger was broke. He did not have one
cent left -
Since that time Elsfelder has made
several big winnings. Several times he
has had as high as seven or eight hun
dred dollars in checks before him. but
