THEIR AUTO WENT DEAD
DAWSON LOTHARIOS HAVE BAD
LUCK ON WAY TO CUTHBERT,
Compelled to Use "Shank Horses"
Several Miles Only to Find the
Festivities Had Ended.

A party of young men started out
Tuesday evening, their goal being a
swell reception at Andrew college, in
Cuthbert. Everything went smooth
ly until Pachitla creek, several miles
this side OF Cuthbert, was reached,
when the auto refused to so as it
auto in spite of the coachings of
the young men and the efforts of the
chauffeur. Time, tide and receptions
wait for no man, and the tardy SWANS
decided to try 'shanks horses" BY
this means they reached the festaI
scene, out of breath but smiling, at
1920, when to their further chagrin
they found that the dutiful chape-
rones had taken the fledglings under
their wings preparatory for flight.
At three o'clock Wednesday morn
ing four young men might have been
seen seeking their Dawson homes in
anything but pleasant frames Of
mind. When the story leaked out
local maids were unanimous in
saying glad of it," served them
right, ought to have stayed at
home, anyway"

THE DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards, Got.
26.-Receipts of cattle here last
week were heavy, nearly 2O,OOO
head arriving. The demand was
good but dull. Sharply lower east
ern markets caused some dullness
here and prices closed around a
quarter lower than the previous
week. The eastern. markets de-
clined heavily, but good demand
from country feeder buyers, as
we'll as from local dealers and pack
ers, caused an active competition
here and prevented big decline.
Today, with close to 1000 cattle
on sale, the demand WAS good and
prices strong to dime higher.
Good fat steers are selling at from
$6.75 to 81 30, good killing cows
are bringing S. 65 to Sc and fancy
kinds up to Sc 25. Bulls are in
good demand, as are also veal
calves, with prices steady to strong.
The feeder and stocker trade was
active throughout the week A
large number of feeder buyers we're
here from day to day during the
week and great many feeders
were sent to the country from this
market. Good choice steers are
selling at $6 80 to 81, and extra
choice kinds up to 81 80; fair to
good steers are bringing Sc to
So so. Feeding COWS are wanted
and selling readily at $4.75 to $3.50,
according to quality.
The hog demand is good and best
grades sold here today at 81 25 to
81 45, which is somewhat above the
best river markets. Local demand
is better than the supply.
Sheep receipts were heavy and
there is good demand Prices
are firm and the market active
from day to day. Good fat ewes
are selling at from "a 25 to SIS;
good lambs $6.5 to ~ 25. Feeder
ewes sold up to $4.25, freight paid,
and feeding lambs at $3.50, freight
paid. The inquiry here is very
strong for feeders as well as fat
lambs, and shipments are wanted.
