DETECTIVE HUME’S LETTER Some Amusing Quotations From Bart's Taunting Deggerel. RESULT OF A DINNER- BET Cable in in the Two gentlemen wer seated at a the cafe of one of the large hote northwest last night, enjoying a cham- pagne supper, which one patd for with good grace, the result of a bet mad2 as to the au.hen ity of an article recently apperring in The Star, which had to do with the ex- plolis of one of the greatest Jone highway- men, a Californian, who was both a writer of doggerel verse and a robber of stage coaches. ‘The winner of the bet related the cireum- stances in this manner: “The article in The Star.” said he, “was sed by myself and friend at dinner ai pone night, h> holding that it was an apoc- ryphacal creation of the imagination of the writer, and I taking the other end. The story described the capture of a highw man called Black Bart, the Po8. His p/ was accentuated by the tmprobability of « racter like a footpad (it was told by a footpad) who, in th? article, referred to the siated practice of some writers permitting such subjects to have full swing when their imaginations were in prime elastle co! tion, being In possession of all of the facts. Proof for the Warden. “I readily took the bet, for, though I did not tell my friend, I had a very faint recot- lection of having personaliy heard of this fellow many years ago, while on the Pacific coast. Since he would not be convinced, 1 wrote to the warden of San Quintin state prison on San Francisco bay, for verification of the man’s incarceration. In due time I re- ceived a letter from Warden A. G. Agutre, inclosing Black Bart's description, taken from the records of the prison, He had been sentenced in 1883, from ‘Calaveras county, to serve six years for robbery. “At the same time I wrote to J. B. Hume, chief detective of the Wells-Fargo Express Company, who ran Black Bart to the ground. Mr. Hume’s letter proved most in- teresting, being replete with amusing and exciting episodes in thz robber’s career, and recounting some of the highwayman’s rough poet Here {s a specimen of the latter's Byronic genius, exactly as it was written by Bart on a piece of the comparty’s waybill and placed in the emptyexpress box of a stage which he had robbed, single- handed, in broad daylight, in Plumas county ** ‘here I lay me down to sleep it the coming morrew snecess perhaps defeat rlasting sorrow, “Wve Inbored long ang bard for bread for honor and riches Bunt on my corns too long you've tred Jet what come VL try it on My condition can’t bo worse and if there 1# money tn that box “Tis money in my purse, ‘BLACK BART “Phe Pos." Extent of His Hold-Ups. “When Bart was finally arrésted, he ac- knowledged having held up no less than twenty-eight stage coaches, single handed, in the northern countics in California. How many more he robbed, which he would not acknowledge, will never be known, but it 1s believed to equal this number. His nerve and daring was remarkable, and be- ing a man of great endurance, a thorough mountaineer and a walker of unusual pow- ers, he was unequaled in making quick transits over the rough country and moun- tains, thus eluding capture for nearly eight He evidently was {n the business of ; what there was in ft, and been a great schemer. It, no afforded him keen delight, poet and wag that he was, to pore as a gentleman In San Franet: Hying on the gold captured from the Fargo express boxes, while the detectives were hunting him every- where else during all this time. : “Ww. in that city he made but few friends, and these were people of respecta- bility. He was very A tidy in his dress, respectable in appearance and ex- tremely proper and polite in behavior, and, stra ax it may appear, chaste in language, eschewing profantt He was never known to gamble, beyond buying pools on horse races and speculating in mining stocks on the 'Friseo mining ex- change. “Bart made a great deal of monoy out of his robberies. One of his largest hauls was taken In a hold-up near Nevada City, in which he secured a gold. bar Valued’ at $2,200. Within 4 forinight he robbed a stage In an adjoining county of about $1,000 in gold coin. The bar weighed I%7 ounces. He always conselentiously rifled the mall bags, and, no doubt, secured thousands of dollars from the registered letters. Some- times the company’s treasure box had but lttle in it, and again it would be well filled with coin or gold bars or gold dust, and Bart would return to San Francisco to live like a gentleman, until hix money was gone. In all, his plunder fs belleved to have amounted to a considerable fortune, and, since he lived so quietly, it is a mystery how he disposed of it. His Remarkable Nerve. “Bart's wonderful nerve im attacking all alone stage coaches driven, as a rule, by rough, hardy men quick with their guns and always ready to shoot, well knowing that they were on the lookout for him, 18 well illustrated in the.manner in which he made one of his last robberies. At the muzzle of his rifle he compelled the stage driver to unhitch his horre@. Bart, with a seldge hammer, was breaking open the iron treasure box under the seat. By chance @ hunter oame upon the ecene near where the driver was standing with the horses. The driver took the hunter'r rifie and opened fire upon Bart just as he had completed the job and was about to escape to the brush’ with the contents of the box, some $5,000 in goid amalgam. The attack wae fo sud- den and disconcerting that he fied, leaving in his haste a pair of opera glasses which he used in descrying the approach of stages from a distance, and a handker- chief, upon the corner of which was a laundry mark, ‘F. X. ©. 7.’ It was this mark, as related in The Star, which sub- sequently led to hig @etection and arrest. “Bart's real name was C. E. Bolton, and he was a native of New York state. At the breaking out of the civil war he lived at Decatur, Tl., and he enliated tn the 116th Ulinols Volunteers, serving for three yeara and attaining the rank of *ergeant. His rison life was a model. He was secluded In his habits and avoided being seen by visitore as much as possible. He did not consider himself an ordinary convict, and in this conceit he wnéi inly correct, avoiding all intercoursé his fellow prigoners, His one chum in piison was also a highwayman, and the latter was also a murderer. No crime other than that of rob- bery was ever charged against Bart. after his release from San Quintin he committed, it is believed, several other stage robberies, but finally disappears and is thought to have died shortly afterward.” As the winner of the-bet completed his story of Bart's exploits he thoughtfully or- dered another bottle of champagne—for the other gentleman to pay for.
