sault, in which she was indirectly re-
sponsible, she started home one night,
in company with Yates. Foley, who
had been watching them "set out along
Galena street and beyond Montana,
crossed down behind Thompson's lum-
Der yard and lay in wait for them be-
hind a wagon" The couple was appar-
emily walking in the street. AS they
crossed the west line OF Montana and
Mercury. Foley opened fire. He shot
the woman through the body, the vio-
linist through the cheek. He then shot
himself twice. The second bullet he
fired through his brain by thrusting
the muzzle of the pistol into his mouth
Foley died about 80 feet west of Mon
tana street, bathed in his own blood.
Foley, the killer and suicide, it de-
Veloped, was in mortal dread of his
wife, Mollie Foley, who lived in Dur
coming to Butte. Before he met the
Flick woman he had sent Mollie $75
and an invitation to come. The Flick
infatuation, which was instantaneous
in its Development caused him to write
her not to come. But she had already
sold her belongings and was on her
way, stopping over at Las Vegas to
visit her daughter by former mar
riage.
ON Foley'S body was found a variety
theater program, on the margin of
which he had described: 'Horrid crime.
Heart broken man. Goodbye Molly
Folly, Durango, Colo
People who knew Foley testified at
the inquest that he had been a bad
man" in Colorado, but that on his
widest rampage his wife could tame
and disarm him. "He feared that she
would kill him." they said
Foley was laid to rest in Butte. His
wife wired that she wished it. His fu-
neral sermon was preached by the Rev.
J. R. Russell. The Flick woman, who
was under the care of DR.. Whitford,
after life-and-death struggle of some
weeks, recovered.
Let us forget his bad deeds and let
those who knew of any goodness or
kindness in him remember his vir-
tues" was the charitable epitaph which
he Butte press offered as he was bur-
ed. The tragedy occurred Nov. 8, 1855.

Murder SUICIDE
CORNER IN BUTTE
GROJJND SOAKED WITH BLOOD
OF SUICIDE, WOULD-BE MUIR
DERER AND VICTIM
Crime Committed at Corner of Mon
tana and Mercury Street Was One
of Mining City's Early-Day Major
Tragedies.

The ground, at Montana and
Mercury streets, Butte, is soaked
with the blood of suicide, and
would-be murderer, and that Oh
his victim, blood beaten into the
ground and mellowed by the SHOWS
and rains of 81 years.
The suicide and would-be killer was
John Foley, former marsha! OF Dur
ango. Colo. His victims were Mrs. Alice
Flick. a waitress in the Toledo beer
hall, and an Italian violinist, named
Yates, who was employed at the To-
ledo. The crime was one OF Butte
early-day major tragedies. 1t was given
two and one-half columns OF space
in a four-page newspaper. The account
included a diagram OF the scene OF
the crime, probably the f!rst arrow
tana newspaper. Foley, both before and
after the killing, claimed much space
in news accounts.
The man Foley was employed as
doorkeeper at the ComIque. He had
been made a special policeman by Mar
shall Stoner, who was later compelled
to revoke the appointment on account
of his quarrelsonle and brutal pehaV-
ior" Next he appeared With a oepuCy
sheriffs badge on his vest, but Sheru1
Sullivan denied that he was ever ap-
Foley's first appearance in the news
occurred at the Toledo, where ne as
saulted an elderly man named McDon-
aid. breaking his cheek bone with a
blow of a revolver. Chief Of Police Dave
Miekeljohn was called. Foley, in the
box. or wineroom, threatened to Kill
anyone who attempted to enter. The
chief of police-they had chief of po-
lice as well as a city marshall in 1885
was no sissy. He broke in the box door
Foley attempted to shoot, but Nickel
john saved himself by grasping the re-
volver in such a manner that the ham
mer fell not on the cartridge, but on
the fleshy part of Miekeljohn's hand,
between the thumb and the forefinger.
The man was soon at liberty. He was
insanely jealous of Mrs. Flick, who
lived in a little house in the middle of
the block between Montana and Idaho
streets, south side of the street. Mrs.
Flick, who was the mother Of two half
grown children, and who had hus-
band at Glendale, had apparently con-
ceived a liking for the violinist, Yates
and wished to be rid of Foley, with
whom she had been intimate.

A MULES
ms 7 'IlEICT'
BY "MON TANA LOU" GRILL


~ ITTING in the Headquarters sa-
loon in Musselshell in the spring
~ Of 1883, group Of s cowmsn N11,,sn and
tell the following remarkable
story of old Kit, mule. 1t was joy-
ial crowd, inclined to question the ver-
acity of the details, but the yarn was
spun in such characteristic range and
valley flavor that all present listened
through without making any Interrupt
ton.
The incident in which old Kit was
involved took place one cold stormy
night during the winter of 1885-l806
when Andy took charge of the 3V out
| fit. Kit, 79 mule, ran with the 3V
! horses. Immediately Andy noticed that
the mule had become attached to two
! of the horses more than to the others.
He watched the circumstances with
more than usual interest, which has
bearing on what follows.
About six weeks later before the
spring roundup started, two of the 3V
horses Strayed from the herd. The ami
mails happened to be the pair to which
Kit had become attached. When the
roundup started the 3V outfit took all
the remaining horses along, but left
old Kit shut in the stable. Before he
joined the roundup crew Andy left Or
ders with the person stopping at the
ranch to let Kit out into the PASTURE
about noon of that day.
Shortly after the roundup work had
started and contact was made with
some of the reps" in the territory,
Andy was informed that one of the
two stray horses was on the Grow In
dian reservation. Detaching himself
from the roundup crew he went after
the horse and found him on Clark's
Fork at the foot of the mountains, and
old Kit, the mule, was with him.
Inquiry developed the fact, which
was verified by several persons who
had seen old Kit on her travels, that
she swan the Musselshell-the 3V
ranch being on the north side Of that
stream-and moved on south until she
struck the Yellowstone above Clark's
Fork, when she crossed that river and
moved on down stream until she
reached Clark's Fork, which she also
crossed, travelling upstream until she
met her old pasture partner of the 3V
ranch at the foot of the mountains.
Old Kit was also seen to pass through
other 3V horse which had strayed from
the ranch stopped on the south side
of the Yellowstone, below the mouth
of Clark's Fork.
Some of the men who heard the
story considered the actions of Old Kit
as being a remarkable case Of the eXer-
else of animal instinct. 1t was Andy's
theory, however, that old Kit struck
out to find her old range where she
was raised and ran across the 3V horse
accidentally, and recognizing an old
friend who had become more than an
acquaintance, stopped with him.
