DENVER MARKETS,

A good inquiry prevailed for choice
to fancy steers and quotations on such
stock ranged from 1915 to 80. Due to
an oversupply demand for yearling
crossed the scales from $7.25 to $3.50.
The female trade was also very light.
Best straight cows are quoted up to
$6.75 and fairly attractive kinds sell
from $6.25 to $3.50. Most sales ranged
from 36 to $6.40.
Stock cattle have been moving very
slowly on the market for more than

CHAPTER vll-continued.

A sound Of boots moving on boards
was his only answer. Polly coughed
nervously.
"Now this is what I'm going to
Offer" went on Mackenzie. "NO one
can make me raise the price one cent.
I'll give you men twenty-five dollars
apiece: you sign over to me your
squatter rights: then take your wom-
en- and kids and CO."
There was not word In answer to
this. Only Wee Jerry felt Daddy Hop
kins clasp him tighter.
Realizing that the stony silence that
met his offer was practically a re-
fuaai, Mackenzie got to his feet.
"You can take 1t, Or-or so to HI
for all care" he exclaimed.
He turned toward the door; and
then Pollyop got back her breath. and
while the sQuatter men watched sui

"Scoot out" she repeated. IAN, don't

Mackenzie lifted his riding whip
threateningly, and every man with
growl started forward; but as the
whip fell back to his side. they sank
down again.
Then 1t was that he shifted the whip
to his left hand and took from his
pocket shining pistol; and although
Polly whitened, she held her ground.
"And you, you impudent huzzy,"
snapped Mackenzie, "what have you
got to do with it7 What are you, any

In spite of the deadly thing held in
the white, strong fingers, Polly's head
went up bit.

The pistol came up with click. and

struck Pollyop two stinging blows with

into the open, and, holding high the
