THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, - MONDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1890. 5 L Wonderful Hardihood and Serve Dis played by Uube Burrows, tlie Kolorions Desperado. BE SHOWED M FEAR FOR DEATH. Though Covered With Revolvers, Iho Keck less Man Invited His Would lie Assassins to Drink HOW HE CALLED DOWN A HOBDEKEE. The Life cf a Hsa is Daogtr Saved by lis IsterfcRste of the Train Eolber. IF110M A STAFF COBEESrOMJKXT.3 Xr.w Youk, October 12. "Kube Bur rows, the train robber who was killed in Alabama the other day," said a well-known Xew York contractor, "worked for me some ten years ago at Silver City, Ark. The place was then a mere mining camp and it held a little the worst crowd of men I ever saw on top of earth. Uube was only a fair specimen. "As is usually the case in such remote places, peopled by such fellows, there was practically no law save what is carried in every man's belt or boot-leg. The deadly "Winchester was always within easy reach, day or night. Xo man stirred out, after night especially, unless he was a walking arsenal. Shootings, stabbings and episodes of that nature were of constant occurrence. Assassinations similar to those of Clayton and the more recent attempt upon Brecken ridge, were common, though, owing to the insignificance of the principals, very little would be heard of such events. DIED -WITH THEIE BOOTS OX. "I don't believe there was a man of that gang that worked for me but had been shot or stabbed himself or had shot or stabbed somebody else. "Wc had a graveyard out there in the hills and I believe three-fourths of its permanent residents bad died with their boots on. Of course, things have changed since then and Silver City is now quite a respectable place. "This Itube Burrows drove a team. He was a great rawboned, strapping fellow, with a cold blue eye and a nerve like iron. His last adventure in breaking jail showed the sort of a man he was lor nerve. I don't believe that fellow cared any more for death than you would care for missing your dinner hour. Two men as tough as he was, who had long nourished a grudge against Cube and were waiting an opportunity to get even with him without danger to themselves, one night suddenly poked a brace of 44's plump into his lace. " Rube was leaning against the bar and reflecting on the uncertainties of playinc faro by systems. There was a game in full blast at the back and Rube had just been cleaned out. This pair of ruffians caught him just that way. itonn's COOLSESS. "Well, Bube never moved a muscle never so mucb as an eyelid. Those fellows thought he would go for his gun and Rube was devilish quick on a trigger but he didn't. If he had tried that he would have been riddled. The unexpected always hap pens. So it did then. Rube looked them straight in the eyes, and the pistols might have been so many cucumbers so lar as he was concerned. Then he laughed con temptuously and told the barkeeper to set up three drinks. I "I never saw such nerve! His presence of mind was wonderrul! Jfobody under-stood better when to fight and when not to fight than Rube Burrows. It was instinctive. He realized in a second that men who do not shoot at once will probably not shoot at all unless compelled to do so. "What was the result? Why, Eube afterward shot both of them, killing one. The other fellow skipped out. "57es, we used to have high old times ont there then. The boys always treated me pretty well. I got shot only lour times. After one of these scraps and while my right arm was still in a sling, I walked into a saloon and up against a hard crowd. One of this gang, a man named Selter, had as sassinated a man in cold blood. A PLTCKY DETECTIVE. "The victim was an old man and was in his front yard unarmed at the time, while his slayer was in hiding, and irom his am bush put two loads of blugs through him with a double-barreled shotgun. That place -was no place to serve a warrant, you'd bet ter believe, but a Hot Springs detective named Larry Hazen, a relative of Phil Armour's, came out there at the instigation o' the members of the old man's family to hunt up the murderer. I was driving from Hot Springs back to the mines (about 30 miles), and picked up Hazen. 1 told him he would go to certaiu death, but he was a nlueky fellow and insisted on his dangerous jiroject. I cave him the protection of mv house at Silver City my house was a reg ular JorJ. 'Now, I knew pretty well if the gang got vrcud of the fact that this detective had ever been my accidental companion, let alone a Member of my household, they'd probably shoot my head off and permit me to explain afterward. But I was firmly convinced that nobody knew anything about the man, and ihougut if they did find it out after ward it would be w hen he had gone. He had asMireJ me that he merely came to hunt up evidence of the murder and would leave the arrest to other authority. FACING DEATH. "Well, when I sauntered into that saloon and saw the looks thrown my way I real ized at once that I was a suspected man. Salter himself, the murderer, Uood right there face to face with me. To say I was a trifle flustered is putting the thing mildly. My heart stopped beating for a few seconds, and when I observed peculiar movement ol Salter's rieht arm I expected it to stop beating forever, lor he had a clever trick of a knife up the sleeve. "I knew that knife was there when he moved over along the bar toward me just as well as if I had seen it. In fact. I saw it in juy imagination gleaming througn the coat. I Knew that man would no more hesitate to shove that blade between my ribs than he would to kick a dog. But almost any man put in a corner will face death unflinching ly. He wouldn't hunt up danger would probably run if he had a chance but being In tor it and no escape he will usually de velop nerve enough to face the music That is the way I felt. I asked Salter to have a drink and invited the others to join me. " ;l don't drink,' he replied, gruffly. "This was considered sufficient provocation out mere to tin a man, you know. But in stead of resentiug his refusal in that way, I retorted in the familiar rough language cus tomary amonc that sort ot men: BCEKOtVS AS A rUACEMAKEB. " '-h, j,o to I Take some whisky, vou bloody liar put out that black bottle here!' " M say I don't drinkl' he repeated. " 'Be careful of my arm ' "Rube Burrows stepped up. He had two big pistols strapped to him. It was a cold day, but he had no coat on and his grav flannel shirt was thrown open at the neck displaying his hairy breast He was lully half a head taller than me, and looked down even on Salter, who was a powerfully built man. And usualy he was cool of manner almost frigid. I was very nearly frigid my self, you can bet. To tackle this murderer with my one arm in a sling was quite enough. Rubo Burrows was equal to a dozen ordinary men when it came to blood. It was at once apparent, however, that Sal ter was uncertain whether Rube was going to stand by him or stand by me, or whether he had it in for both of ns. I wasn't clear on that point myself, but being in a desper- COO AS A CUCUMBER ate hole, anyhow, one or a dozen more of this sort could make very little difference. It was not an open question long, however, for Rube nodded to me and said, senten tiously: " 1 drink ALL HAXDS DEIKK. "You see, this wouldn't have much sig nificance here. But as the refusal of Salter meant war, this voluntary offer meant just the opposite. The warm blood besran again to chase up and down my spinal column. " "Right you are,' said I. 'Another glass so does Salter,' I added, suddenly turn ing upon him. 'You drink ?' "He sullenly poured out about four fingers of the stuff, and we put down tho liquor unanimously. You sec he was afraid of Rube. That ended that part of it I lound the next day that a messenger had come in ahead of me from Hot Springs and told Salter that I was piloting an officer to Silver Cityto arrest him for murder, and that Salter had sworn to kill me on sight. To make the thing still more interesting my big boy had been posted, and at the very moment when Rube interfered stood at the window with a Winchester covering the body of Salter. He had been watching the latter's movements all day. But for Rube Burrows, however, I dare say I should have been a dead man. "What became of Salter ? Oh, he's alive yet, I guess. Though Rube had a row with him and shot him lull of holes. He went down in a faro bank the first fire, and wriggled all ovr the floor on his hands and knees, Rube emptying every chamber of his revolver into him and yelling at him to lie still and be finished. But Salter got over it. The daughter ot the man he murdered offered 55,000 to anv man who would kill him. He finally lit out for the South." CHAKLES T. JIuekat.

Poisoned by Scrofula Is the sad story of many lives made miserable through no fault of their own. Scrofula is more especially than any other a hereditary disease, ana for this simple reason: Arising from im pure and insufficient blood, the disease locates itself in the lymphatics, which are composed of white tissues; thero is a period of festal life when the whole body consists of white tissues, and therefore the unborn child is especially susceptible to this dreadful disease. Bnt there is A Remedy for Scrofula, whether hereditary or acqulicd. It is Hood's Sarsaparilla, which by its powerful effect upon the blood, expels every trace of tbo disease and gives to the vital fluid the quality and color of health. Abscess on the Neclc. "My daughter had an abscess on her neck for five or six years, being all the time under care of physicians without any perceptible re lief. Hood's Sarsaparilla was then recom mended to me for her, and ithas entirelycured her." S. Thompson, Hazolwood. "Pittsburg, V-L. Hood's Sarsaparilla Soldbyalldrnggists. JUslxforM.

Nkw York, October 12. Henry Clews' Fi nancial Circular says: The points of greatest weakness have shown mora power of resistance than was expected, and altogether the way In which tho market has met the pressure of rcal izings upon large blocks of stocks implies a re servo of resource which has materially helped to sustain confidence. There are sound reasons why this should be' the case. For while, In the nature ot its causes, the present situation very much resembles that which culminated in the Treat break down at the middle of 18S4, yet within lato years there has been nothing ap proaching the extent of general speculative de rangement that had existed previous to 'Si nor has tho recent over-construction of railroad gone to anything like the excesses of mileage or of over capitalization that prevailed in the former period. Durinc lato years, the general trade of the country has been condnctcd In a conservative spirit, and for much of the newly built road there has been a certain measure of legitimate need in the unprecednntedly rapid development of onr material resources. Prop erly speaking, therefore, the excesses for which we are now paying the penalty have been tne excesses of vigor and not of weakness. For this reason we aro In a position to meet the current reaction with a compactness of re source that e have never before possesed un der similar situations; and the process of read justment may therefore be expected to proceed with correspondingly more smoothness and ex emption from disaster. Moreover, the reaction has set in at a period of comparative quiet in speculation at the Stock Exchange ana has be gun not witb an inflated but a moderate range of prices for stock". Also, It is to be consid ered that the position of the bank reserves per uiltsa hope that no stringsney in tho money market may seriously aggravate the difficulties In the stock market. The large decline in prices during the week has been stimulated by a heavy break in Americans at London, which showed that no recuperative influence tias to bo hoped tor from that quarter. On Friday, however which was settling day on the London Ex changethere was an entire ausence of trouble which rumors hail foreshadowed, and prices showed a disposition to follow New York on a range sufficiently above our quotations to pre vent any unloading on this market.

EXTRA AND ine of such sizes the show. in all We honestly believe that the man of extra size, or odd proportions, stands a better show of being fitted in a stock like ours than in most custom tailoring establishments. And for this reason: The merchant tailor, after he once cuts out a garment for you, is bound in some way to make that par ticular garment fit you. He partially makes the garment up into what he calls a "try on," and on this foundation he goes to work padding here and paring there to attempt a fit In our case, in a difficult shape, we start, not with one founda tion, buc a dozen. We try on coat after coat until we get one that proves very near a fit, and in this we make the alter ations necessary FREE OF CHARGE. Don't be afraid because you're not symmetrically built that we can't fit you. You select the suit our Artistic Tailor does the rest.
