Jurt sa Shisely got opposite, | San Francisce. | 1t was a close, hot, sultry day in July, 1860, and the crowd of gamblers, miners and loafers, who had been sitting in front | of the Long Tom saloon on Washington | Sonora, and lying around that streot, popular resort in the cool of the shade and the afforded by the awning overhe: locust trees, which looked wilted and |dirty from the heat and dust, werc gathered around littge knot of and excited men near the main entrance. The subjoct of dispute was evidently no socret, for tho participants talked both load and glowering at each other in a threatening and firm, gosticulating wildly manner, I The central figure of the group was | wellknown gambler from the adjoining | county of Calaveras called Duff’ Hardy. | tin | men and desperato characters, who will | be readily recalled to the memory of | those who lived in the southern mines in | | the carly days. Surrounding him, and engaged in the noisy controversy, wer Bill Lewis, Cherokee Sam, Frank | Ragsdale, Bill Allen, and two or threo | others of the short-card fraternity | [ betonging to Sonora, the beautiful and | flourishing little county t of “Old Tuolumne.” ™HE OF THE TROUKLE was a race-horse owned by the Hardy boys at Mokelumne Hill, and believed by them to be faster than anything on four legs that Tuolumne could bring on the track, Some recent exploits, fresh in the memory of the Sonora sports, and which had made them come home with empty pockets, were bitterly denounced as unfair. Hardy, on the other hand, sworo his horse had won on his merits, and oftered to back him against his late anta- gonist for any amount of money. STl tell you what I'll do, Har you can take it up or back out of as you please. I'll bet one thousand dollars, and put the money up in Murphy’s hands (Murphy was the propri- etor of the *‘Long Tom"), that the gray horse can beat the black a mile on the Shaw's Flat track at any time within the next three months.” “‘See here, Frank,” the Calaveras man replied, you fellows give us a square deal I'll take the bet. “And if you don't, there'll be—— in camp, or my name ain't Duff Hardy.” And so the match was made, and the news spread over the ceuntry, far and near. The gray and black were to come together again, but this time on the sacred soil of Old Tuolumne, where nothing could be ‘‘put up,” and no ‘“‘shenanigan” allowed. OLD RACEMEN WILL RECOLLECT the excitement which spread over several states of the Union at the time of the memorable contests between Fashion ana other of the famous horses of that time. On a smaller scale, the same thing was witnessed in the southern mines over the race between the black horse of Calaveras and the gray of Shaw’s Flat. The interest was widespread, the feeling CAUSE y, and t, just intense. Hardly anything else was talked about, and nearly everybody wagered something on the race. Tuolumne backed her favorite manfully, and it was almost as much as a man’s life was worth to say anything against the gallant gray, or oven question the certain- ty of his winning. In Sonora the feelin, was redhot, and Iurgo sums were wugumfi on the result, The day of the great event saw a trem- endous gathering at Shaw’s Flat, about half-way between Sonora and Columbia. Miners knocked off work and made a holiday of it. People flocked in from Jamestown, Chinese Camp, Jacksonville, the river bars, and even Big Oak Flat, while Brown’s Flat, Springfield, Sawmill Flatand Yankee Hill sent big delegations to view the sport. The day was fine, the weather all that could be desired, and the track in good condition. At the eleventh hour, to the honor of those who had backed the gray horse so liberally, it was announced that HE HAD GONE LAME as in no condition to win, Tuolumne in despair and Calaveras triumphant. Something was wrong, and foul play hinted at. Immediately o great change could be observed in the betting. Those who had put up heavily on the gray were anxious to “hedge” by getling on the black, not only by the Calaveras pecple, but by the Tuolumnites as well, At this point, and within an hou of the race, Jim Desmondson, an old turfman from Texas, thought he smelt something rotten in the air. ~ With a knowing wink, he took some of the Sonora boys off to a clump of manzanit a bushes by the road- side, and there, out of sight of the crowd on the track, Jim told his friends that he had discovered something was wrong. Accidentally he had dropped on a little game of the Hardy crowd. They were quietly putting up their money on the gray horse!” While the Tuolumnites were offering big odds on Calave the Hardys and their imm were actually taking the bets. and was “Jim said ho was confident the Calaveras sharpers had put up thousands of dollars on the gray, and couldn’t account for it. ~ They knew as well as uuylmd{ else that thn gray had gone lame, and there was no question about the black horse being in splendid condition. Under these cir- cumstances, without something was rotten, why should the other side back the gray! BILL MAVIS, “Boys,” said Ned Hunter, the wiry little lawyer of Sonora, who had been in innumerable difficultics and was up to all the tricks of the trade, ‘‘leave this matter to me for twenty minutes, and I'll find out all about it. Scatter now, but come back here at that time, and if we don't play those ‘smart Alecks’ for all they are worth, and beat them at their own game, 1'll leave the country.” Hunter, with two or three friends, at the close of thisinterview, hunted up Bill Mavis, who was to ride the black horse, and had a “‘war-talk” with him. Bill was a Shaw's Flat boy, and although young and a light weight, had already established somsthing of a reckless, da devil reputation, ook here, Bill,” said Hunter, who was his friend and had got him out of moge than one uggly scrape, *‘the Hardy boys are putfing up their money on our horse, Now, you know the Dlack can win, if this thing is on the square, and we want to know what it means, All your old friends, including f, have bet gn the Calaveras horse , to try and save themselves, and arrangement has made to the we want to know it been t if any “throw right here race, FLOT AND COUNTER-PLOT, This appeal was too strong for Mavis 8o, without loss of time or waste of words, he told them that he had agreed to hold the black horse back and let the | the ride® of the gray is whipping fu | the Hardy erowd g to e All | right,” said Hunter; ‘‘we r torms, and will stand by you to the | doath.’ | The sceno on the track is one of wild excitomont.

Something is wron The crowd | feels it, and anxiously awaits further a'(’\\']nv)n ments. | THE RACE. | 2)The black horse, after a preparatory gallop by way of exercise to warm him up, has stepped down the track to get a | taste of water and have his mouthsponged | out. Duff Hardy is at the horse's head, and looking up into the face of his rider, | with eyes that are terrible in their deadly malignity, ho hisses, vather than whispers, | S remember what you've to do. I | you come in first, accident or no accidont | 80 help me God, U'll shoot you in the | saddle. Now, go!" The word is given, and the horses are off like a flash. The black has the inside | and is in the lead. At tho half milo pole | they are running side by side, but it 1 seen that the black is being held while fous ly. Duff Hardy runs down tho track, and nervously thrusts his hand into his hip pocket. Nod Hunter and Bill Allen follow him closely, one on eachside. The horses como tearing like man down che lomestreteh, *“The gray is ahead!” and a shout goes up from the Calaveras crowd. They shoot like arrows past whoro Hardy and Huntor are_ standing: and soon, with a yell, the rider of the Dlack horso is soon t riso in his sticrups, givo one terrific cut with his whip, and cross the scoro @ winner by over two longths, ™ EFF : Such a scene of ficrce excitement has seldom been witnessed, even on a race course, Men raved and cursed and yelled, shook hands, and shook their fists in each others faces, threw their hats in the air, and trampled them under foot; hugged one another, and behaved like a mob of erazy men. Some wero wild with others furious with rage and disap- stment, Duff. Hardy ran down the . with rovolver in hand, crying “Shoot the— Over fifty pistols were out in less than a minute, and it cortainly looked as if bloody work must end the day’s sport. Mavis, tfw rider of the black, did not roturn to the judges’ stand after passing the score. He knew too much for that. His life would not have been worth a cent, but its sacrifice would have been the signal for slaughter. Fortunately for the Hardy’s, he did not come back, but went right on until he had gone almost half around again, then dismounted, jumknud the fence and disappeared in the brush. STARTLIN CARRYING OFF THE STAKES. The Hardy crowd swore that the stakes should mot be given up, and with six- shooters in hand dared any man to take the money from the track. The move- ment was of great danger, forall were terribly excited and both sides armed to teeth, Persuasion and reason were of no avail. Offers of compromise would not be listened to. The money should not be taken away! At this juncturo Ned Hunter and D. 0. McCarthy, both of Sonora, jumped into an open buggy, the bag of coin and dust was thrown in at their foet, they drew their pistols, drove through the angry threatning crowd, many of whem stood with revelvers in hand, and got off to Sonora in safety. Strange to say no one was seriously hurt that day. But the affair was not permitted to stop there. Suit was entered in the district court agninst | the stake holder, McCarthy, to recover the money, or prevent him from paying it over. The trial came off at Sonora in the course of a few months before His Honor Judge B. M. Creanor of Stockton, then Judge of the Fifth Judical District. It occupied more than a week, and kept the little town in a fever of expectancy and excitement. Again the clans rallied as before, all ARMED AND READY For the fray. Bill Marvis was on hand as a witness, The Hardys and their crowd came over in fore Quiet citizens were in fear of their lives, Many antic pated a riot, with loss of life, Some feared that the town would be burned. Even in the court room angry and fierce words were exchanged, while at overy little commotion the click, click click of the deringers, coltsand *“pepp: boxes” could be heard with alarming dis- tinctness, Marvis, as may £ =L be readily imagined, was above all others the one most hated and cursed by the Calaveras people, His s in imminent danger every hour lay, and yet he did not appenr to be much worried over the prospect. In- ped, his recklessness m-n-mul to increase with the peril, and time and again he faced death in a spirit of pure bravado, Nwthing seemed to daunt nor terrify him, He proclaimed himself ready for any- thing and anybody. THE ALABAMIAN, Among_ the Calveras party was a man named Shirely, a tall, swarthy, black- eyed Alabumian. This man was a lenaer on his side. He appeared to be brave, determined and desperate. Several times during the course of the trial, Shirely and Mavis met and cursed each other fearful- ly. Pistol in hand, drawn and cocked, each poured out upon the other the vil- est words in the English language. Out- siders might have thought each cowards, Not so. The closing scene proved them dead game. On more than one occasion they walked into the middle of the street, looked into each other's eyes and dared one another to shoot. This occurred al- most in view of the court, certainly with- in full view of the court-house, and only ufow steps from the front door. Few judges could have kept cool under such circumstances, But Judge Creanor was one of the old timers. He had an iron nerve, and was not in the least disturbed by the sea of angry passions raging around him. By tacit consent both sides recog nized Mavis and Shirely us their cham pions, and apparently concluded to let them fight it out, and thus settle the dif ficulty by single combat. T HIREET DUEL, when court had ad crowd w surging through main street, Shirely met is near Cabesut's restaurant, in the lower part of the town. Walking up to him and clutching a cocked derringer in his right hand, he asked: *‘How will you fight met” Mavis quietly turned away, One journed afternoon, and the the | his fallen foe. Mavis made one step toward him, and, arking, ““That's how T11 fight you, fired his derringer within an inch of his breast. The latter staggared, but in stantly recovering himsolf, thrust his der. ringer into Mavis's face and blazed awa; The shot str the check-bone, knuct ing Mavis down and inflicting an ugly wound. Then Shirely, clasping his lefg breast tightly with one hand, drew six-shooter with the other, and Legan firing on the man at his feet. The latter, with equal alacity, had got out his re volverand fired while in a sitting posture Shirely's first shot with the revolver, stran, enough, struck Mavix's right and, shattering it, but he instantly .\||lrln~-| the weapon with both hands, d fired with great rapidity, but sure aim. Shirely, meanwhile, was holding tight to his left breast, and shooting at At this juncture, Con- stable Blake rushed in, seized Shirely, and this put an end to tho bloody encoun tor. In less than a minute he wasa dead man, The first shot had reached his heart. o THE DGEMENT, Fortunately the piece of the town, and the good of all concern od, this tragedy putan end to the bitter dispute over that memoriable race The money was awarded to the § it should have been, and the [ voras men took away with them the body of the br and dosporate Alabamian, Shortly afte woring from kis wounds, Mavis left Toulumme, and went to the now mining town Mono, where ho be eamo oue of the most noted and dreaded despera loes ever known on_that sido of most men of his stamp, he dosperate fight with the Tndians some few yours lter. | ——— A Happy Famuy.
