; j;A DEAD XilLrg 7a.:iJen ia Tea, MTnste SxgleTke Career o itmtt Kiley Covering a Dance Honto HoorWith Blood His Own Pistol Thrust Down ". - , His Throat. . ' :sn Francisco Call, An Kaste rn journal recently piiblLbhetl an account of the shooting of eight Texans by Matt Rilry in Kansas ome years ago. The article concluded with the statement that . ÜiIey, Mme years after the tragedy described, wa attacked with paralysis and died in the F-astern States. The statement ia true as far aLi it deribes the paralysis, but in all other particulars is erroneous. Kiley did not die in the Kast, but on the contrary, i3 alive and a rrklont of San Francisco, where he has lived the greatest portion of the time since Lis celebrated adventures in Kansas caused a sensation throughout the Southwest. , The manner in which the eight Texans were killed (littered considerably from that described by the Kastern writer. Matt Hi ley, r Matt Foster the latter being hi right nanie wavat the date of the occurrence referred to, one of the most . .NOTED AND PESJ'ERATE t)f the professional fighters and gamblers of the West, lie was about thirty 0ar3 old, and in physique the counterfort of the redoubtable" John I, of lJoston. His whole life has been passed in scenes .f roiif-h adventure. "When a boy he entered the civil war on the Confederate side, living a native of Arkansas, and finally graduated as a fullHedged bushwhacker. At the burning of Lawrence, Kas., he obtained a considerable hare of booty, and jrrowin;; tired of fighting for his rarty, concluded to do something for Limsclf. At that time the sp;rse jKjpulation and peculiar conditions of life in Kansas offered prat inducements to a desperate man, and Uiiey made the great State his sojonrnimr place. He tilled several positions was SherilTof Kllsworthand was Deputy Marshal at Newton at the time of the sensational adventure with the Texans. McClusky, the Marshal of the town, was Ililey's partner. Kiley had formed Me luky's acquaintance at Laramie, where he met him in coinlany with some of the most desperate characters that ever infested the West. Subse- ; fluently Mc(1uky and Kiley met on the .Atchison and Topeka Koad, and they befame, partners in the preservation of the . ,1-eat.e, and the proprietors of a hurdy-gurdy and gambling house at Newton. On the day f McClnsky's death Kiley had been out hunting a hörse-lhief, and got back in the afternoon. While ptandlng outride tlie lance house talking to some one he noticed that the place wa doing a lively business. There were eight women . dancing on the floor and as many more cddling drinks, and the cowboy element was numerous and uproarious. Mct'lusky was sitting on a hair with his back to the wall looking at the proceedings, when of a sudden a party of Texan? who had planned to "kill hin sprang forward from the crowd anl began to shoot at him. McClusky had killed one of their men some time ago, rut was wholly unsuspicious of an attack, and he was riddled with bullets before he could draw his pistol. The desperate character f the man asrted itself in the death agony, and his last movement was to cock hi" pjstol and joint it at his assailants, lie had not strength to press the trigger, however, and fell on his face, dead. ms mit.I'F.r was sot i.oxi; vx.wkxoei. At the first report of the Texan' pistols Jtiley started for the dance-house. His iuick eye took in the tragic situation of his partner at a glance, and in an instant he had seized the nearest Texan by the neck, and, holding him up before him as a living target, opened a fnsjhvlc on the assassins. When the tiring u-d there were nine men lying on the floor dead and wounded. When Kiley loosened the grap of his herculean arm from the neck of Iiis human shield the tenth victim of the terrible encounter dropped lifeless to the boards, lie had been dead before the encounter had well begun, but if he had not succumbed to the pistols of his comrades there was a cartridge in Kiley's third pistol at his service. Kisrht of the dead and wounded men were of the party of Texans who had murdered Mct'lusky. The other two men who had been killed in the afl'ray were railroad hands and on-lookers at the tragedy. Jt spoke volumes for the closeness f the shooting that only two bullets had llown so wide of the intended mark as to bring down innocent victims in the crowded dance hall. Kiley remained in Newton three lays alter the sensational "affray, and then found it exjedicnt to leave for parts unknown. He subsequently ligured in several desjerate affairs on the line of the Union Pacific Kailroad and through Colorado, Utah. New Mexico and Nevada. Orders had been iued on the Union Pacific Railroad to allow no monte gamblers to ride on the trains, and in obedience to this command Captain Payue, of the Omaha depot iolice, tried to eject Kiley and his partner Sullivan while traveling from Council lilufli to Omaha. He rut oil' fcullivan, but Kiley refused to leave the train, and in the struggle which ensued the Captain was knocked senele-s by a blow from the deierado's pistol. After this the trains of the Union Pacilic were uncomfortable for Jliley, and he moved his headquarters from Council Klufis. His partner, Sullivan, iike almost every partner he ever had, met a tragic death, another gambler, named I caval, shooting him in t!gOAfter 4irting with Sullivan Kiley formed a partnership with the notorious Jack Wiggins, and opened a large saloon in Salt Lake City. On the owning night a Mormon known as lutr h John, who figured as a destroying angel, entered the sakon and intimated to Wiggins that no (ienlile would be allowed to run Mich an establishment in the city. Some hot words following, THE PEST KOYISi AN:M. CF.IZEI A BOTTI.K fcr.d hurled it through the large mirror behind the bar, shivering the glass into fragments. Wjggins bad bis pistol out almost before the destroying angel swung the little, ar.d the crash of gla-s was drowned in the report of a shot that sent lutch John to eternity. I or the inauspicious incident of the opening night Wiggins was arrested and frcntentu-d to death. With that lofty consideration which distinguished Mormon justice, Wiggins was given the choice of death by hanging or .-hooting. He chose the roie, although exhorted by his rough friends to select the bullet as the most expedient and respectable agent of extinction. When reasoned with by Kiley, he stated that he preferred to be hanged, "for," said he, "I've seen many a rood man shot and I want to see one hanged. A few days before the day of execution Kih y managed to secure an oportnnity for Wiirgins to break jail, and which that worthy impro ed with alacrity. The fugitive was concealed for eight days in the cellar under the Walker House. Kiley had sold bis saloon and rx-nt all his money to secure the cscaie of Wiggins. He had hired a notorious character by the name of Bid Hean to take the fugitive to Kvanson, Wyo. T., on horseback, as from that point lie could get Kast in safety. On the night when Kean was to have taken Wiggins away the latter asked Kiley to give him Iiis pistol, as he had only two of his own, and lie wanted another for Kean, whom he ex (er ted to lieht for him if necessary. Kiley refused at first, ts the pistol was an old friend, but finally yielded to Wiggins' iimortunities and handed him the weapon. The moment Wiggins got the pistol he became almost insane with passion, and, t-eizing Kiley, thrust the muzzle of the ocked revolver down the latter throat till it nearly choked him. Jiefore Wiggins could carry out his threat to ri.OW THE HEAD OFF IMS PRTXER 1'can, and others interfered and Kiley made

hisrscape. He at once went to his loggings and, getting another pistol, rushed back to the cellar, but Wiggins hal set put on his journey, and tragedy was averted. It subsequently transpired that Wiggin wa jealous of Kiley, whom Le suspected of paying attentions to his enamornta while he was hiding from the officers of the law in the cellar. -After escaping from. Utah Wiggins could not rest. He soon made his whereabouts known by several daring escapades, and was finally arrested and taken back to Salt Lake.- lie again escaped, and some years after he was shot in a row in New Mexico. Riley moved to Nevada from Salt T.ake City, and figured m that section as a monte gambler and a hard case generally. He finally descended on San Francisco, änd in conjunction with Charles Merion, better known as Boston Charley, a noted swell nobsman, now serving a torm in the Kastern Penitentiary, opened the first bunko shop in San Francisco. The establishment was located at the corner of Sansome and Pine streets, and did a thriving business, the capital being furnished by some business man of the city. While in this avocation, Kiley, alias Foster, fell desjverately in love with a sixteen-year old girl of Hebrew descent, and finally married her, despite the opiosition of her parents, when she was scarcely sixteen years of age. After this exploit he settled down to the comparatively quiet life of a faro dealer, in which profession he became paralyzed under remarkably strange circumstances. One night when dealing "a flyer" a gambler won eleven straight bets. Foster, for bv that name he was then known, burst into the M ildest profanity, and wound up his exhibition of anger with the wish that he might be paralyzed if the man won the next bet. The man won, and as the faro-box dropped from the nerveless hand of the dealer the players looked at him in horror, for he was stricken helpless with paralvsis of the left fide, Some time alter the broken-down desperado, no longer a stalwart specimen of humanity, but a poor cripple tottering on crutches, was committed to the Alms House by liisj wife. It seemed impossible that he could ever again return to the world, but the tremendous vitality of the man brought him back from the jaws of death, and he is again in the current of life struggling for a living, a cripple, sustained only by the hope that he may somehow regain the affections of his former wife, now separated from him by divorce and marriage.

Where Davis was Captured. Twice in the last two years, says Mr. K. I. Lumsden, in the Eastman ((a.) Journal. I have visited the spot where Mr. Davis surrendered the last title to the Confederacy, and I wish to correct some errors and give some correct information in regard to the capture, given me by reliable citizens of Irwin County, who carried me to the sot and pointed out the dirt'erent ositioni . of Mr. Havis's camp and the positions of the two bodies of Federal cavalry. I took notes at the time of my visit to the historic spot, but they are mislaid and I shall write from memory. Mr. Pavis was captured about two miles from Irwinville (not Irwinton), the county seat of Irwin County, on the road leading from Abbeville, Wilcox County, to Irwinville, and about twenty-live miles from the former place. Mr. lavisand party crossed the Ocmulgee near Abbeville, Wilcox County, about twenty-five miles below Hawkinsville, at a ferry called "Poor Kolnn's." About 100 yards above this ferry and fifty or seventy-five yards from the river is a remarkable spring, called "Poor Kebin" spring. 1 visited it when ice was on the shrubs between the spring and Abbeville, yet the water was quite warm and the young man with me went in bathing, and said he often did so in the winter. The spring is ouite large, twenty-five feet square, and there flows juitc a large stream from it. It is said to have remarkable curative qualities in skin diseases on man and beat. It is a fact known by all old citizens that a horse with scratches washed in the spring a few times is soon cured. From the ferry Mr. Havis and party came came bv Abbeville and took the road to Irwinville. The Federal cavalry got on the track of the party at the ferry f Abbeville, and there they divided, the "Michigan regiment taking one road and the Wisconsin the other. The party of cavalrymen then took the river at House Creek Koad, after going some little distance, found out that Mr. Davis had not gone that road, so they left it and came on to Irwinville. This village, although the county-seat, contained only the Court-house, jail, one store, and two dwellings. Finding at the village that Mr. Davis had not passed, they then took the road back toward Abbeville. Mr. Davis and party were unconscious of being so closely pursued, and when they came to where one of those little pineywoods branches crosses the road and makes a little iond above the road, selected that place for a camp and pitched their tents to the right of the road, on the side of the branch next to Irwinville. There, under the tall, waving pines (for there were no oaks at that place), upon the green wire-grass, which at that season covered the whole face of the country, tired and worn out, they lay down to seep. There was only one house, near Mr. Davis' camp between there and Irwinville. It was at this house the party who came around by Irwinville learned where he was camped. I do not recollect whether it was the Michigan or Wisconsin party. They approached near the camp and halted alout daybreak, or just before the party from the Irwinville side advanced. The party from the Abbeville side, who were some :;uO or 4's yards from the camp and perhaps waiting "for the attack, and mistaking their own men for Confederates, commenced tiring, which was kept up some time, until they discovered their mistake. Several men were killed and one or two horses. 'Tight here," said my informant, "a line mare was killed," and, strange to state, there is a clean place and no grass growing there after so many years. There are a irreat many pine trees with places cut out of them. where relic-hunters have cut out the balls that were lodztd in the trees during the tight. It is known as the Jell' Davis battle-ground. It is a fact that two or three largi pines under which Mr. Davis camped have Wen struck by lightnin and an; now dead. One was burned down bv one of the lires thai periodically take pfuce in the wire-grass country. The old man who lives near found, after n!l had left, a carbine or musket. He kept it hid for awhile, but the roving band of Yankee soldiers whoa few days after visited the place took it from him, änd, if I mistake not, robbed him of all the money he had, about twenty-five cents in silver. The old man and his house have loth jussed away. A small plot of ground, perhaps half an acre, devoid of wire-gras3 (for it is a fact that wire-jrress once dug or plowed tip aever grows on the land), shows where the house stood.

THE DEVIL'S OWN DRUG.

A Kedicise That Can Change a Saint Into a - - . Scoundrel Some of the Secreta of the Ilorrible Work Done by tbe Alkaloid Cocaine. H. Louis Republican . It was a bottle of a colorless water-like fluid that an add doctor held out to a Kepubcan reporter yesterday afternoon. 'With this fluid," said he, 'and with an hypodermic syringe it would hardly be too much to ay that I could change tit. Francis of Assisse into a Charles Guiteau. 1 could take the purest and best man or woman in the city of St. Louis, and, after a course of treatment reaching not over two weeks, change him or her into a beast, unworthy, base and wretched. It is the devil's own drug." "What is it?" asked the reporter, "It is cocaine, the new medicine, of which the papers have had so much to say lately. It is a good thing in its way, bui it is such an awfully bad thing at the same time that it were better it had never been discovered. This drug sent one of the very best physicians in the city of St. Louis into an insane asylum, and it was with difficulty that he was snatched back from utter madness and restored to his family and to his usefulness. Fortunately that restoration was complete, although the gentleman passed through an experience which he will never forget, and which makes him shudder now when ho speaks or writes about it." "I thought cocaine was an anesthetic.'' "It is. Here, let me put a drop of it on the end of your tongue. It woD't hurt you. It take continued treatment to bring out the psychologic phenomena." The Doctor put a little of the cocaine on the reporter's tongue. 1 1 had a peculiar odor, and a taste entirely unlike anything which the same tongue had previously experienced, while a sensation of numbness came over the part of the organ touched. Then with a needle the tongue was pricked. The steel could be feli entering, hut 'here was no pain. After a time the sensation passed away altogether. "That is its use." continued the doctor; "it is a local anesthetic, and in operations on the eye, er other places where the mucous membrane is exposed. And so far as that goes the alkaloid was a great discovery. But it has not stopped there. It exerts A MOST V1LI.MNOVS F.FFFaT on the mind, especially lowering the moral tone, and making anyone who acquires the cocaine habit simply a scoundrel. I can't sneak too bitterly of it, because I am fresh from a case where its evil cflects have been manifested at their worst." "And was cocaine alone to blame?" 'It was. The case 1 mean to bring before the medical society very shortly, as soon as it is possible to make a complete report. A young lady of eighteen, wiio has lately completed school, some time ago through trouble which it is not necessary to go into, but which should not have had any ell'ect upon her general health, became exceedingly depressed in her spirits. There was no mental alienation no insanity you understand. That was clear. After a time, finding that matters were getting worse and that there was danger of mental diseaM, I began using cocaine in tkecase. I administered it hypodermically, and the effect was magical. All the clouds cleared away and the girl was as bright and happy as she had ever been. Iudeed her good spirits were almost riotous at times. After a time this wore off and the old melancholy returned. I again gave cocaine with good results, and this treatment continued for some time. I was very cautious, and as I was exceedingly interested in the case 1 watched it closely, boon I had reason for the gravest apprehension. I gave up the cocaine altogether. The girl became morose and intensely selfish. At times her language was simply frightful. Her habits became bad and the closest watch became necessary to prevent some scandalous escapade which she daily threatened. I called in another doctor, and guided by his experience, we made a most thorough search of the girl's room. Concealed in one of the mattresses of the bed was A I.AKi'K VIAL OK COCAINE and the implements for taking it hypoderruically. She had acquired the habit insensibly, and nad secured a large amount of the drug, which she administered herself. It is difficult to make you understand the change from the bright, affectionate, generous girl she had been to the moral wreck she had become. Without evil associates, with no opportunity to go wrong, she had become, through cocaine abne, a castaway." "And the result?" "I hope for the best. She has been entirely secluded. She can get no more of the drug, although she craves it as bitterly as an onium-eater demands his poison." "Might this not be an isolated case?" "No. The experience of every doctor who has given cocaine comes to the same end, that the drug surely and quickly saps the moral nature of the patient. I have read all that I could get about it, and I have questioned all who knew anything about it; you know it i a new alkaloid with very little literature, and I believe that cocaine attacks that part of the brain where the conscience and the moral sense reside. That is a rough and unscientific way .of putting it. but it will convey my meaning. When cocaine has been given for any length of time the character breaks down. That is inevitably the result. The drug seems to be A PIEVIT tONXKCTINCJ-I.IXK between mind and matter. I can't put it to you any more strongly than 1 have done, that with a bottle of cocaine and an hypodermic syringe you could change the very best man you know into a creature lit only for the gutter." "I thought that Dr. Kauduy'had discovered the drug had wonderful ciU-cts in cases of in.-anity." "It has, Cocaine is valuable. But if 3011 will read what Dr. liauduy writes in the last number of the St. Louis Medical Kecord 3011 will discover that there is nothing too strong for him to sav in reprebation of the abuse of this drug, lie describes it3 effect asa base enslavement of the mind. He describes the phenomena as tending to selfishness and morbid criminality. Indeed, he advises that in cases where it is necessary to administer cocaine the patient should never be iermitted to find out what has beta given, for he describes the cocaine habit as one easy to form, awful in effect, and difficult to cure." "What is the cocaine made from?" "It is the alkaloid of the coca leaves, which are found in South America. I believe the botanic name of the plant is Krythroxylon Coca. The best leaves are found in I'eru and Bolivia, growing on the slopes of the Andes. Its effects have long been known to the Indians and the travelers of the Andes. Chewing a handful of the leaves entirely takes away all feeling f hunger and fatigue, no matter how long one may have been without food. You must not confound the coca leaves with the cocoanut. The crythroxylon coca, also called vpadu by the Inians. is a relation of the passion Mower rather than of the palm. It is queer, however, that in early times the cocoanut was fabled to be in a measure as potent a drug as the cocaine is. You see no land was known w here the cocoanut grew, and all that Europe knew of them was an occasional nut picked up at sea in the currents about the Maldive Islands. They were thought to be sea fruit. Tbe Kmperor Kudolph offered 2,oou llorins forone, without being able to buy it, so highly was its reputed medicinal qualities esteemed and so rare was the pecimens. It wofild be a good thing if cocoanuts was as

scarce. It has already done more harm right here in St. Louis than will ever be undone."

St. Ixhis, October 10. A Chattanooga special to the Tost-Despatch says: "Avery sensational murder occurred a few miles from Somersville, Ala., yesterday. Two gentlemen, named Wesley llopjur and James Kdmondson, had a fierce quarrel about the division of a piece of property.
