There was ripple of laughter
around the Capitol when the annual
report Of Major Richard Sylvester.
Washington's chief of police, was
read. Major Sylvester is required by
law to report to Congress annually
showing how efficient his force Is.
Among other things he has to make
up a set of statistics giving the num-
Der of arrests. with the race. complex
ion. occupation and offense OF each
individual arrested.
In the report are many columns de-
voted to tabulated petty crimes. In
yolying the arrest of gamblers. touts.
tramps, burglars, pickpockets. saloon
keepers, fakirs, bunko men. and all
that sort of shady humanity.
Two lines in the list, however. at
tracted the most attention. These
stated there had been an arrest "of
one Senator" and two Representa-
tives in Congress"
Everybody in the Senate and the
House wants to know who the Sena-
tor and Representatives are.

You are a foolish woman, Belle
Why not forget the past and live onl,
in the present. There is enough WORK
for patriotic daughters of the South
to do without brooding over their owr
private imaginary injuries. wish you

She was not at all cowed.
Il will never cease to be u thorn in
your side," she Kissed. venomously.
Il hope We will never meet again,
Belle" he said. as he passed from the
house.
Nor did they.
This desperate woman, who did not
hesitate to risk her life for the lost
cause, was given dangerous mission
few days later.
She was never heard of again.
No one knew what became of her.
but the last seen of her was near a
great dismal swamp which in avoid
ing the camp of the enemy, she may
have attempted to pass through. only
to get lost and miserably perish.
With all her faults, and they were
many, she at least loved her country
more than her own life, which she
freely gave as a sacrifice in the en-
deavor to assist the rapidly waning
star of the sinking Confederacy.
Knowing her vindictive nature from
past experience. Colonel John would
from time to time feel considerable I'M
easiness whenever his mind reverted
to the female spy.
When he stepped out of the house
he found the faithful sergeant by the
door.
ITO the horses, sergeant" was the
order.
These had been left not far away.
Mollie and her attendant dusky
guard would have had possibly ten
minutes start.
Still, they could probably overtake
the Granger vehicle before 1t had
traversed more than half of the road
leading to Lyndhurst.
The squire had once been proud OF
his housekeeping horses.
This was early in the war.
The needs OF the Confederate cav
airy service had caused many a levy
to be made-indeed, a drag-net had
been used to scrape in every decent
animal in the South.
So the squire's fine carriage-horses
had long since been offered on the
altar of patriotism and for the last
year or so he had been content to plod
along behind couple Of Anticipated
animals that filled his breast with
scorn.

DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards - Not.
withstanding the storm of last week.
which interfered with shipments to
some extent and cut of receipts here,
there was a big supply of cattle on the
local market. Total footed up about
| 5000 head or 1000 more than preced-
| ing week and about 1000 more than
| the same week last year. The market
| had q good tone from the start and
prices closed firm to higher. Best beef
| steers are 10c to 15c higher than
week ago, good cows 10c to zoe up and
best feeders and stockers firm to
dime higher. Common steers show
little Improvement either in demand
or price. Local packers bought readily
of the offerings in the beef line. and
there was also strong inquiry on
shipping account. Some choice steers
sold last week at $4.35, which was high
price, with others at $3.50 and most OF
the pretty good killers at $3.S5 to
$4.25. Best cows landed at $685. and
quite number of the offerings were
good enough to land at SO to 1925.
with bulk of the fair to good grades at
S2.65 to SO. Medium cows sold at $2.25
to $3.50 and Gamers all the way down
to $125 Feeder and stocker inquiry
was very good, but buyers still want
the good ones, and common steers
show little Improvement. Some very
fancy black steers from Southwestern
Colorado brought $3.50. which is high
price paid here for several weeks and
with one exception the high price OF
the season. Other steers sold at $4.15
and most of the better grades from
$3.50 to 81.
Hog prices continue to hold about
the same, tops at the close of the week
being quoted at $6.22k. as against
$500 the preceding Saturday There
was more or less huctuation from day
to day. but $6.1O to $500 would about
cover the range. Supply was very fair,
but demand continues good for all hogs
coming this way.
Sheep supply was limited last week
on account of the storms in the West.
Demand was very good and prices rule
generally firm with very fair amount
Of business done here.

Colonel John knew all his.
He was not apprehensive, therefore.
with regard to the vehicle reaching
Lyndhurst before them, with only ten
minutes start.
Once mounted, they galloped along
Peach Tree avenue heading for the
outskirts.
The border OF the city was reached.
Beyond lay the road leading to Lynd-
hurst.
All was peaceful around them, and
yet a mighty army lay sleeping in and
about Atlanta-the army destined TO
carry terror and dismay while march
ing through Georgia.
Far away on the distant hills could
be seen twinkling camp-fires OF an
other host.
Johnston and his heroes in gray
watching and waiting for chance to
pounce upon the Federals at some
time when they could be caught nap
ping.
Several times the colonel turned In
his saddle and swept his eyes over the
spectacle.
Once. when they were halted by an
outlying picket the colonel drew In
his horse. and after giving the coun-
tersign, leaned over to ask If vehicie
had gone on before them.
The soldier replied in the amrma-
tive. and his description of the outfit,
| given in a few sentences, tal.ied eH-
| actly with the squire's rig.
Satisfied that the one In whom ne
had SO great an interest must be Just
a short distance ahead, Colonel John
spurred on.
There was a long stretch OF road
between this last picket post anu
Lvndhurst, that was practically I'M
guarded. -
This was the region Colonel John
had his fears about, concerning the
safety of his wife.
Rowing bands of guerrillas could
easily pierce the outer line OF the fea'
erals. and doubtless came within reach
of the buildings his men were eneaseu
to protect, many times.
AS vet they had heard no signs OF
the vehicle ahead, but the picket mad
assured them it was not far away.
After all. this might be something
of ouixotic errand on his part, put
be saw his duty plainly before him
and wopld not shrink no matter II his
presence was not needed.
AS he galloped on he endeaVoreu
IN map out in his mind some couis
which he had better pursue on Tue
morrow. when he found himself IN Tue
presence of Mollie.
All he desired was to SET niinsei'
straight in her eyes.

CHAPTER XVIII.

Just In Time.
Sergeant Shanks dashed after his
superior officer. almost as eager for
the fray as was Colonel John himself.
for Shanks had long ago gained the
name of a fire-eater. and hence had a
reputation to sustain.
1t was no false alarm.
The road at this point was sandy,
vance, there was no sound marking
the onward progress. no pounding OF
hoofs such as would have been the
result In another quarter where the
thoroughfare had hard surface.
This proved doubly fortunate.
Not only did 1t prevent their arrival
on the scene from being telegraphed
ahead to those who were engaged. but
it gave the advancing warriors a
chance to hear what was going on.
The shouts increased.
1t was a darby who gave vent to
them, and his manner indicated ire
mendous excitement.
Faithful old Ezekial, unable to as
sist his beloved young mistress in any
other way, was making all the noise
he could, hoping to attract some one
to the rescue.
Certain it was he gave the most I'M
earthly yells that ever agonized NOR
tai tympanum. and the guerrillas
might be excused IL they either turned
and ran or set about ending his fear
full chorus with bullet.
Colonel John. bending forward In
the saddle. sought to discern the stu
alton ahead as his horse carried him
on with great bounds.
He could see lights, as though the
rascals had even had the assurance to
start fire at the side of the road and
play picket.
A dark object-that was the car
rage, and around 1t the moving forms
of the guerrillas.
Though his steed fairly flew. such
was the Impotence OF the colonel
that he kept using the spurs-no pace
could keep up with his desire.
Thus he bore down upon the scene
like a bosom of destruction. ready to
sweep anything and everything out OF
his path.
He was inspired by double motive
-chivalry and love.
Ito be continued.)
The Lamar register. [volume] (Lamar, Colo.) 1889-1952, 1906-11-28

From these reflections Colonel John
was suddenly aroused-he surely
heard a cry in the darkness beyond.
cry that sounded very like a shout
for help in female voice.
His blood seemed on fire at the
thought of his worst fears being con-
firmed, and Mollie, his wife, being at
the mercy of the rascals who, serving
under neither flag, pillaged the dis
tracted country.
"They have been attacked" were
the words he uttered, as he spurred
his horse forward.

at the thought of presenting himself
before her after what had occurred.
Why had she braved this trip to the
city, unless she was learning to love
him-unless something within her
heart refused to believe him the guilty
wretch Belle Stevens declared, until
she had seen his duplicity with her
own eyes.
This being the case. John was not
half SO indignant over the contempti-
BILE fraud that had been used to draw
him to the place as he might have
been could he discover no benefit to
his own cause in the matter.
Belle Stevens had planned we'll
the gold of Major Worden had aroused
her latent energies, If such thing
were necessary, considering how she
hated his successful rival.
She believed the game was in her
hands, and that John could never ex-
plain away the circumstances which
now clouded his name in the estima-
alton of the woman he was fast learn
ing to adore.
But Belle Stevens was yet to learn
that sometimes engineers are des-
troyed by the very power they are
supposed to bring into existence-in
other words, hoist by their own Pc
tard."
Colonel John had made up his MIND
that since he could learn nothing
more to his advantage under this roof,
he had better be moving.
His main thought was to overtake
Mollie on the road If possible, ana es-
cort her in safety to Lyndhurst.
Perhaps she might be too Indignant
TO speak to him-never mind. he could
carry out his plan, protect her on the
way, and leave explanations to more
convenient season.
Turning to his aunt he babe her
farewell.
81 will see you again If you remain
in the city, Aunt Sarah. and anything
i may be able to do for you DO not
hesitate to speak of it."
John, you humiliate me more ana
more. Then you forgive my share IN
this vile plot?" she asked. with tears
In her eyes.
Freely and fully" he replied.
As he started for the door he en-
countered the vindictive woman who
had plotted so desperately for MS
overthrow.
One glance into his face revealed &c
her the fact that he knew all.
She ground her teeth in rage.

EAGLE TO 90 WAY OF sUFFALos
Extinction Of the National Bird Seems
Close at Hand.

The season for the slaughter OF
eagles has set in. American eagles
and golden eagles particularly have
fallen victims to the insatiate desire
of men to kill. II there is any senti-
ment in this country at all 1t ought

can eagle, as this theoretically is our
nationa, bird. 1t has already become
SO rare as to be a novelty and to lead
correspondents to consume much
space in giving the details when some
hunter brings an eagle down. It is
singular that men with guns want to
destroy the very last survivor of a
disappearing species of bird or ami
NAL. One would think that the rarer
a bird or beast became the greater
care there would be to protect 1t. But
the lust for trophies will not have 1t

go on until this great bird shall be-
