The Turf was his first venture In Springfield. Ita success convine- ed him that he belonged In Spring- field. During the years that fol- lowed, he left many times to re- turn in the belief that he could "make another pile" in Springfield. During three different periods ho operated the bar at the Metropoli- tah hotel and ran a gambling house In the basement. Ho"opened the Palace saloon near the square, and the original fixtures are said to have cost bim $:8,000. ' Every tumbler in the bourg was of out glass. .


For four or .five years he pro- ajded over the guy who of the Pa- lace. Ho served such elaborate free lunches that other saloona protested they could not compete and make money. But he liked the "grand manner." and he ran the Palace to mult his own tastes until the over- head became too stift, even for Cardwell.


'GENEROUS TO CHARITY


Cardwell, his pertacre said, could take in $1000 on one day, and spend


$2000 to the next. . Ho was a great fisherman and hunter. He gave con- sideruble of his saloon and gambling earnings to charity.
