Keep Children off the Streets
During our lmsto to criticise the

manner in which they fail to 00 oper

"I don't boo how on earth you enn

packed liko sardines, now."
Clalro gnvo her skirts a littlo shako
to fill in overy last available inch of
spaco on tho hack neat of tho coach.
"Oh, nonsense," laughed Lowis.
"Hero, Miss IUckard, Just swing up
hcsldo mo. There's room for you be
tween Hon and inc."
Old Hen nuido room for her gra
ciously, and picked up his reins, whip
in ono hand, waiting tho starter's
signal In front of tho Mountain Vluw
Hotel. "Owen was to sit thcro, Lew
is," complained Clalro anxiously.
"Owen wants to rldo Insldo," re
piled Lewis quietly. "Everybody
ready? Wo'ro off!"
"Do you know her Miss IUckard?"
asked tho girl next to Clalro.
"1 know she's perfectly Imp'oBslhlc,"
returned Clalro. "Wonder what Owen
thinks? Sho's been dropping poor old
Lewis over tho edgo of emotional
chasms for days, and It serves her
rlRht. They're Just as good as on
gaged, and she's been absolutely hyp
notized hy Wnyno Ivcsson."
Insldo tho coach Owen Arnold sat
with Ivcsson. For Ilvo weeks ho had
been a guest nt tho hotel, u slender,
scholarly looking youngster wbo upont
most of his thno reading on tho broad
porches or riding tho mountain paths.
"It Is wonderful to linvo you nil to
myself," Ivcsson said as tho coach
swung down Into tho first gully.
"You cnll this alone?" laughed
Gwen tcaslngly. wondering who tho
girl was up on tho box.
"Who Is sho?" asked Ivcsson, al
most as If ho had caught her thought.
Sho was not a guest at the hotel, and
seemed moro liko a mountain type.
"Lowis knows hor Odd, Isn't it?"
"Lewis has lived up hcio for thrco
years," sho answered, resentfully.
"Ever heard this trip was danger
ous?" piped up nn old gentleman.
"Used to ho ten years ago. Almost
Euro to find a bandit."
"Really?" Gwen leaned forward
eagerly.
"I haven't carried a gun In years,"
wont on tho old gentleman cheerfully,
"hut I've got one along today. That

to the Cuddyhoo outfit to pay off tho

that good were here today. Fair to
good natives sold at $11 to $12, light

About 75 cars of pulp fed steers were

tho middle of last week.
STOCKEIiS and FEEDERS
Prices broke around 50 cents the
first of last week, and the accumula
tion of the first few days was worked
off pretty close on that basis, a few
sales after Wednesday a shnde strong

temporary, and so it proved to be,
Bines luuay uruiuiu u mncr man me

medium weights $1(5.05, UrIUs $15.85,
bulk of sules $15.00, to $1(5.05. Big
advance in wheat and provisions since
Friday furnished part of the stimula
tion in the hog market today, together
with the natural bullish outlook on
futures. Keeeip ts fell below esti
mates at most points, and nothing
moro than light supplies are consider
ed possible balance of this month.
Farm nctivity will not hold receipts
down ns mucli as when prices were ono
hal fwhnt they arc now, although tho
Bunremc importance of raisimr a larire

allies along, lmvo you?"
Wayno laughed ami took out his
wntch and purso.
"Shall wo take nn inventory to help
along tho Jjlghwayman when wo
meet him?'' ho asked. "Let us glvo
everything to Miss Crandall, and no
ono would over ho bravo enough to
hold her up.""
Up on tho box, Lowis and Ills two
companions watched tho gulch ns It
dipped and widened, narrowed up
again nnd plunged ahead, a gash In
tho heart ot tho mountain. When tho
coach swung down into tho Devil's
Kottlo, It seemed to rock alarmingly,
ind stopped with a Jerk that sent the
norses almost on their haunches.
Insldo tho coach, tho pcoplo started
lo rlso, but found themselves neatly
covered hy a revolver hold by Wayno
Ivcsson. Ills face, usually rather palo,
ivna Hushed and his eyes wero keen.
"Stay whero you nro, all of you," ho
:ommanded. "Miss Crandall, may I
'.rouble you for tho handbag, pleaso?"
Everything of vaiuo had been ohllg
ngly slipped Into G wen's brown seal
aandhag, and sho hesitated, hor eyes
Hashing Into his. Outside, nn older
nnn on horseback stood with leveled
lllo hy tho coach.
"HnndB up, all of you," ho called.
'Como on, kid. It's all right."
And Wnyno slipped down from tho
roach, but stopped, for tho old gen
tleman hold a revolver at his head.
"Got you this trip," ho said pleas
antly. "Sit still, ladles. All right,
Lewis!"
Lowis suddenly felt tho touch of
Itcel in his hand. Old Ben had some
how crumpled down at tho bandit's
first warning shot, but tho girl was In
his place, holding the reins. At tho
rolco from tho rear of tho coach, tho
man on horseback wheeled his horse
ind stnrtod on a headlong gallop down
tho gulch road, but Lowis Hied after
him, bringing tho horse to his knees,
ind ho lay motionless with his rider
under him.
It had all happened so suddenly that
tho girls and women had watched tho
Bccno in sllont horror. Clalro was
first to noto tho surprising chaugo In
tho girl on tho box. Hor hat was off.
Sho waB short-haired and boyish, and
was on tho ground laughing and talk
ing while Wayno was bound hand and
foot.
Gwen waited, white faced and trou
bled. Finally Lewis came to hor sldo
and sho laid hor hand Impulsively on
his coat sleeve such a littlo motion,
but it betrayed to him all ot her
thoughts. Ho laid ono huud ovor it
closely.
"Woll, glrllo, I'm sorry you ran Into
this. Wo'vo boon expecting It for
months. Wo carao prepared. Thoro
wcro two of tho shorlff's men with
mo, Bakor on tho Insldo, as tho old

me, drossed as tho girl. Wero you
