Originally the notorious Wild West watering hole known as the "White Elephant Saloon". Long-Hair Jim Courtwright who had been both Federal and City Marshall here was shot and killed by Gambler - King Luke Short, February 8, 1887 at the doorway to Miss Ella Blackwell's Shooting Gallery just north of the White Elephant Saloon. Some said Short was faster than the usually quick-draw Courtwright. Police reported a jammed cylinder on Courtwright's pistol.
