 For an answer the cowboys whipped out biz revolvers-the Colts blue steel brand, 4S caliber-and replied:
 Here they areT
 rThey're good" said Becker quickly, with deprecatory wave of his hand. and he passed on through the car. The cowboys chucked their 'irons' back Into their holsters and settled back comfortably, thinking that the train was theirs
 Becker walked on back Co hls little wardrobe at the front end Of the next car and. unlocking It, took out a sawed or double barreled shotgun loaded with slugs He cooked both hammers-for il was before the ham, merless automatic days-and, getting the gun properly placed iu front of him, he marched hack Into the car where the cowboys were.
 He stepped briskly in front of them and showed the bis gun into their faces, holding it at such an angle that a shot would have swept or the heads of both.
 Then he said again. gently, Your tickets, please"
 The hands of the cowboys twitched convulsively toward their pockets. and Becker interjected, Give me those tickets, please, that have handles and shove lem at me with the handles to- ward me-toward me, understandr' be added. bearing down hard with the on me"
