Old John West, or Utloa John, as he was better known in the early days of Texas, Is in the city and will re. side here In the future, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat. West is SO years old, and one of the oldest cow boys In Texas, having spent the past sixty-three years of his life on the plains of that state and New Mexico. West, In his day, was one of the most widely-known all-around sportmg men in the west, and delights in relating the story of "how he lost his Hfe." "I guess," the old man muttered, "that I'm the only man living that ever lost his life, but I did It, and I'll tell you how It was. It was ahout 30 years ago, and all the big sporting men of the west were emigrating toward Butte City. A crowd of us cowboys left northwest Texas one day to go to Butte for a 'little, gambling spree,' When we gat up to Butte and were all Battled down, we got In with all the gamblers, and In less time than It takes to tell about It, we iwere numbered among the toughest set of men in the community. Btt3 was all aglow one Saturday night. The mines had Just iptald off, and every gambling house in the town was filled with miners who came In to try their luck. I played unusually lucky that day, and toward nlghit I bad something like 816,000 won. Now that was a ipratty large sum, but in those days it wasn't counted very much, 'specially when everythirg was so high. Well, I was feeling In pretty good spirits, and when & crowd of cowpoys from Colorado came up and asked me If I wanted to get In a game of poker, I told them I oMn't care if I did. I got Into the game, and for a while, things were coming my way. Thorn boys had money, and said they'd play HMl h 4 went broke.' We played and kept a playing. It was arreed that every man who won a game was to pay for the drinks. In those days everybody drank whisky, land ft nat. u rally came about that we all got drunk before morning. Well, when I started I dtdnt have but 816,000, but by 4 o'clock next morning it was trait. lng on near 30,000. Then I lost my trail and began to lose. By E o'clock my pile was down to 816.000 again. We were all drunk and making a good deal or noise, and every table in the house closed down and came over to see us play. It was poker. Hand af ter, hand came tough, and every one came tougher. You might know how tough they were when a pair of Jacks took a Jackpot of 81000. It was getting nearly daylight, and when I got down to $4-,000, I picked up my Ave cards, and what do you think! were under them? Four kings. Tea. I sir, four kings. WouldnH I bet on thatr; You can just bet X would There jrere Bvs of us In the game,." The.ante Was 15, and It took 86 mors to soaks U good. It was my tims to Stay, and I stayed. Ths next feller stayed, and so did everybody. A fetler ' named Green said he didn't have much ot a hand, but he thought he'd keep our company. "How many cards do you want?' said the dealer. " 'I'D take one,' I said. "The next feller said one, and every body said one but Green. He took two. "Then the time came for betting. was an unlimited gme. - It was my say, and I bet 8500. The next telle saw my 8500 and raised it 8500 better, The next feller saw him, and so did the rest, till it got to Green, when he raised it 82,000. We all saw that, and the third man saw it 8500 better again, Then Green came up with anothet 82,000 better, and everybody dropped out but me and him. I borrowed 85000 from a feller who saw my hand, and raised the pot that much. "Then things were getting exciting around that table. It was the biggest pat ever seen In Butte since Tom Bowen lost his ranch. Nobody said a word, and the people standing around the table were nearly dumbfounded " 'I'll see 'that 85,000,' said Green, 'and I'll go you my horse better.' "I'll see your horse,' I said, 'and I'll go you three better.' Green only had two more horses, so he saw me them, borrowed 8300, put 82,000 against my other horse, and went me the other 1109 better. "I didn't have no more money, so I bet the very clothes on my back, and Green raised tt his hat. Somebody yelled out, 'all bets on the table,' and we stripped naked, the barkeeper clos ed the door, and down went our bets on the table. I saw Green's hat and then raised him my saddle. He saw this, threw the other 8100 on the table, and yelled out, 'cover It with some thing, I don't care what.' "This was getting too exalting, and I commenced to study. Glancing to the left I saw the corner of a discard, ed card, and it was an ace. Then thought I had a dead sure thing and commenced borrowing again. So did Green. I had every earthly possession up When Green raised me 820. " 'I'll bet my life against that 8200, said, and Green thiew the 8200 in the pot. "Then It oame to a show-down. Green threw down four aces. " 'Hold on,' I said, that don't go, Green.' " The h it den't,' he said, and then he threw his hands down on the money. I picked up a dagger from where I had laid It on the floor, and down It Shot through Green's hands. It nailed them fast, and he couldn't move. " 'What's this?' said Green. " 'Robbed,' I yelled. 'You worked in cards on me.' ' 'It's a He,' Green said. Things sorter quieted down, and when I examined the deck I found too true that another ace had been worked in. " "Taln't my fault,' said Green. ' didn't put ft In.' "And sure he didn't. For we search ed him and every other man In the house, and found three more aces in a feller's pocket who went broke early in the game and fell asleep. "Then I saw thlalt Green was straight and I pulled the dagger out of his hand and apologized. "We all took drinks with Green, and after finding that he was 850,000 ahead of the game, I went to the hotel across the street stark naked, and went to bed. It was nearly noon when I struck the bed, and I tell you I was pretty sleepy. "Well, about 11 o'clock that night I hadn't got up yet somebody came and rapped on my door. " 'Who's there?' I asked. " 'It's Graen,' came Ithe answer. " 'What do you want?' I inquired. " 'I want you.' I got up and went ito ithe door ani there found Green. " 'Well,' said Green, 'come on.' " 'Come on where?" " 'Anywhere,' he siald, 'don't you be long to me?' "And then I commenced ithlnging about betting my We on that poker game. There was a big crowd of cowboys with Green, and I knew that If I re fused to let Green take me they would kill me on ithe spot. I thought about tho matt it and thought I had as well lot Green take my life as anyone else. I dressed myself in a iblanket and went with the mob. There was plenty of rope In the crowd, too, young fellow. "They took me to a mountain about five miles from townr and Green came up and talked to m. " 'Your Hfe belongs to one, don't Is?' said Green. ' " 'Yes,' I said, " iwhat klb you want with lit?' " 'Why,' said Green, 'I want to take It? Surely It's mine; I won It.' " 'Yes,' I said, take it.- "Then they put a rope around my neck, threw one end over a limb of a tree, and were in the act of pulling it, when I yeUed 'Stop.' " 'Whbft's up?" said Green. " 'Why,' I said; 'it my life Is yours you can take it, but this crowd can't; it don't belong to them.' " TV-ell. then,' said Green, 'I'll take It.' ' . 'Then he took hold ot the rope and began pulling. I could feel the cords In my neck stretching, and I knew well that my tlmeHnad eome. "He hoisted me way up in the air, and then yelled from the bottom: 'You can get a pretty good view of the town from there, cant you T I didn't an swer didn't have .time to ehe rope broke and I fell o the ground, lighting on my feet. "Green got little sympathetic then. and, coming up to me, said What good's your life, anyway? " 'It's durn little to you.' I said, 'but It s a whole lot to ns. - -" 'Wetl,-thfh. cT Green, you keep ': :""f- 'I CiS JO .ft-.--: ARE THE BEST CIGARETTE SMOKERS who care to pay a little more thin the cost of ordinary trade cigarettes will 6nd the PET CIGARETTES SUPERIOR TO ALL OTHERS Made from the highest cost Gold Leaf -grown in Virginia, and are ABSOLUTELY D'IRE it; buit, young man, don't never pin a man's hands down to a table before you know what you are diolng.'
