taking Madeline and Florence with
them, and upon the return to stop at
Alfred's ranch. They started in the
COOL, gray dawn, and after three hours
rldlng, as the sun began to get bright,
they entered mesquite grove, sur
rounding corrals and barns, and a
number of low, squat buildings and a
huge, rambling structure all built of
adobe and mostly crumbling to ruin.
only one green spot relieved the bald
red of grounds and walls; and this evil

had given both value and fame to Don

Stillwell.

grOwled Alfred.
No one was in sight; but Madeline
heard loud voices coming from the
house. Stillwell dismounted at the
porch and stalked In at the door, AL
fred leaped off his horse, helped Flor

them rest and wait on the porch, he
followed StillwelI.

Stewart run things"
Then a crowd of men tramped pell-

dark-browed and somber, was in the
lead. Nels hung close to him, and
Madeline's quick glance saw that Nels
had undergone indescribable change.
The grinning, brilliant-eyed Don Car

sharp-featured man wearing a silver
shield. This, no doubt, was Pat Have.
In the background behind Stillwell and
Alfred stood Nick Steele, head and
shoulders over number of vaqueros
and cowboys.
Miss Hammond, I'm sorry you
came" said Stewart, bluntly. "We're
in a middle here. I've insisted that
you and Flo be kept close to US. I'll
explain later. If you can't stop your

With that he turned to the men be-

He bowed low with elaborate and

to be catching up on their orders and
were. in a better position to make
prompt delivery. The number of or

and as these insure inactivity for
some time to como, no disposition to
reduce prices was shown and the mar
ket' tone is distinctly steady. Pig
iron was a little more active In some
directions but generally demand was
not urgent and prices in some cases
were reduced 50 cents per ton.
In copper there has been no I'M
