30394	How can human beings live like this, Dave?
30394	How did you like your trip outside las''night?
30394	How far is it from here?
30394	How far is that from here?
30394	How in the world did that fellow get here, and what is he doing?
30394	How is our little boy, Shadow, to- day?
30394	How is your father getting along, Ben?
30394	How long ago since he was in the bank?
30394	How many have you in the camp here?
30394	How much will you pay us if we keep still until you have finished?
30394	How soon will you be ready?
30394	How would you fellows like to go and see it?
30394	How''d you like to go outside, Roger, just as you are, and have a snowball fight?
30394	I do n''t quite understand?
30394	I do n''t suppose any of the other girls or the doctor touched them?
30394	I do n''t suppose his clerk is around?
30394	I do n''t suppose there are any blizzard pictures among those miniatures, Ben?
30394	I suppose they are paintings of celebrated individuals-- kings, queens, and like that?
30394	I suppose your mother feels dreadfully about it?
30394	I wonder if the girls are up yet?
30394	I wonder what will happen next?
30394	I wonder where he went and if it would do any good to look any further for him?
30394	I wonder who it can be?
30394	If it''s Porton what in the world tempted him to follow you to this place?
30394	If you pass the examination, what will you do next?
30394	In Texas? 30394 Is Bixter much of a place?"
30394	Is it your civil engineering report?
30394	Is n''t it just glorious weather?
30394	Is n''t it queer that he does n''t want to follow in the footsteps of his father and take up politics?
30394	Is n''t it queer? 30394 Is n''t she growing tall, Dave?"
30394	Is n''t that fine?
30394	Is n''t this the limit?
30394	Is that Lawson, the ranchman?
30394	Is this you, Dave Porter?
30394	Is your father actually suffering for the want of some cash?
30394	It ca n''t be their intention to blow up the bridge?
30394	Look like you?
30394	May I ask where you come from?
30394	Miniatures, eh?
30394	My trip outside?
30394	Now that the others are downstairs do n''t you think we had better have something to eat?
30394	Now will you behave yourself and come with me, or do you want some more?
30394	Of course you tried to follow?
30394	Oh, Dave, do you think the grays will behave themselves to- day?
30394	Oh, well, what of that? 30394 Perry Watson, eh?"
30394	Pick up stories?
30394	Quite an adventure, is n''t it?
30394	Say, Dave, how would you like to be back at Oak Hall?
30394	Say, Paul, what do you say if we go into the woods later on and lay low for that feller? 30394 See here, have you anybody staying here who looks like me?"
30394	Shadow, which way did he go?
30394	So that is the way you are going to try to swindle me out of my money, is it, Dave Porter?
30394	Strange? 30394 Swindle?"
30394	That was our expectation,replied Dave, who had followed his sister;"but it looks pretty fierce outside, does n''t it?"
30394	That''s all right enough for us boys,put in Roger,"but how about the girls?"
30394	That''s the railroad station up this way, is n''t it?
30394	The son of a United States senator, eh? 30394 Then I suppose you do n''t want to settle that bill?"
30394	Then they have n''t any word at all about Ward Porton?
30394	Then what in the world does the estate consist of?
30394	Then you do n''t think we''re going to get back to Crumville to- day?
30394	Turn back?
30394	Ward Porton''s father, eh? 30394 Was he smoking a cigarette?"
30394	Was n''t father going to let Mr. Wadsworth see them?
30394	Was the fellow alone?
30394	Was this Ward Porton alone?
30394	Well, Dave, no more bad news I hope?
30394	Well, Wash, what are the prospects for getting away this morning?
30394	Well, as we are going out sleighing this afternoon, why do n''t you drive to Coburntown and drop into his shop and explain matters?
30394	Well, did you catch Porton?
30394	Well, how did you make out?
30394	Well, what does it consist of?
30394	Well, what of that, Dave?
30394	Well, where in the world did this Mr. Enos get money enough to buy such things?
30394	Were n''t you in the shop when I let Porter have some of those goods?
30394	Were they seen at all?
30394	What are you going to do about this letter?
30394	What are you going to do if Wecks says you really had the shoes?
30394	What are you talking about? 30394 What brought you?
30394	What did Mr. Wadsworth do?
30394	What did you do then?
30394	What do you make of that?
30394	What do you mean, Wash? 30394 What do you mean?"
30394	What do you say if we take a swim this evening?
30394	What do you say, Dave-- shall we go?
30394	What do you see?
30394	What do you think about our trying to get back to Crumville?
30394	What do you think it is, Wash, a blizzard?
30394	What do you think? 30394 What do you want, Dave?"
30394	What for, Dave?
30394	What has become of Nat Poole?
30394	What in the world are you doing in there?
30394	What in the world does Mr. Dickley mean by writing to me in this fashion?
30394	What is it, Dave?
30394	What is it?
30394	What is taking you to New York?
30394	What is that for?
30394	What is that sound?
30394	What of him?
30394	What shall we do?
30394	What was that?
30394	What would be the use? 30394 What''s the difference when we''re alone?"
30394	What''s the matter, Dave?
30394	What''s the name of that fellow?
30394	What''s the trouble?
30394	What''s the use? 30394 What''s true, Mother?"
30394	What?
30394	What?
30394	When did you meet the other fellow, and where? 30394 When do you expect them to arrive?"
30394	When do you have to start?
30394	When does that examination of yours come off, Dave?
30394	When was it purchased? 30394 When was this?"
30394	Where do you mean-- in the bank?
30394	Where do you suppose they are going?
30394	Where in the world did you come from?
30394	Where was that?
30394	Where was the place?
30394	Where?
30394	Which road are you going to take-- through Hacklebury or around Conover''s Hill?
30394	Who are they?
30394	Who are you?
30394	Who is going to drive-- you?
30394	Who is it?
30394	Whom is it from?
30394	Why do n''t you take it up? 30394 Why in the world did they want to blow up the bridge?"
30394	Why should you get out?
30394	Why, it was you, was n''t it?
30394	Why, who could be guilty?
30394	Will you come and join me?
30394	With you, of course?
30394	Would n''t we have the dandy time snowballing each other, and snowballing old Horsehair?
30394	Would you like to go with me? 30394 Would your father consider it if it did come in?"
30394	You did n''t expect to meet me out here, did you?
30394	You do n''t mean it?
30394	You do n''t suppose it''s one of those Mexican raiders, do you?
30394	You have n''t any idea where he went?
30394	You have n''t been to our house?
30394	You mean and cut Ward Porton out of the deal?
30394	You remember my telling you about that fellow who looks like me-- the fellow named Dave Porter?
30394	You''re going to write to me regularly, are n''t you?
30394	You''ve been acting in a fine way, have n''t you, Porton?
30394	Am I blind or is it really Dave Porter?"
30394	And I suppose Roger has that same old eagle eye of his on your sister Laura?"
30394	And do n''t you remember what Ward told his father-- that he had left the miniature cases hidden on the other side?
30394	And do you know who it is?
30394	And then as another handshake followed he continued:"What are you going down to New York City for?
30394	And then he added quickly:"Do you remember-- was he smoking?"
30394	And then, as the farmer looked at him in increasing wonder, he added:"Did a young man who looks very much like me go past here to- day?"
30394	And what is more, do you know who I think is guilty?"
30394	And you know what sometimes happens to a fellow when he gets older?"
30394	Are you sure you left the coat and cap on this rack?"
30394	Are you sure?"
30394	Back again, are you?"
30394	Basswood?"
30394	Besides, did n''t you give me your name as Dave Porter, and ask me if I did n''t remember you?"
30394	Besides, if it was n''t Porton, why would he run away?"
30394	CHAPTER IX SOMETHING ABOUT MINIATURES"Miniatures?"
30394	CHAPTER VII FACE TO FACE"If you catch Porton, Dave, what will you do-- turn him over to the authorities?"
30394	CHAPTER XII TIM CRAPSEY''S PLOT"Who are you talking to, Port?"
30394	CHAPTER XVI HOW THE MINIATURES DISAPPEARED"The miniatures are gone?"
30394	CHAPTER XXII IN TEXAS AT LAST"So you are going to join our engineering department, eh?"
30394	Ca n''t he, Dave?"
30394	Could you beat it?"
30394	Did n''t the fellow who got those things from you look somewhat different from me?"
30394	Did n''t we meet him in Clayton?
30394	Did n''t you come in here and get a fedora hat, some shirts and collars and neckties, and a pair of fur- lined gloves, and a lot of underwear?
30394	Do you ketch the idee?"
30394	Do you suppose they have been stolen?"
30394	How about it, Uncle-- am I right?"
30394	How about yourself?"
30394	How are they going to tell him from you?"
30394	How did he manage to get on my trail so quickly?"
30394	How did it happen?"
30394	How do you think you like it?"
30394	How ever did he get here?"
30394	Humph, what good are they?"
30394	I suppose you can ride?"
30394	I was caught with the goods, was n''t I?"
30394	I''ll help you,"returned Dave, quickly 256 DAVE PORTER AND HIS DOUBLE CHAPTER I OFF FOR A SLEIGH- RIDE"What is the matter, Dave?
30394	If he went past here perhaps you can tell me where he has gone?"
30394	Just the same, why should he give me such a hard look?
30394	Now what do you think of that, Hibbins?"
30394	Of course, you have n''t had any breakfast?
30394	Porter and Morr, I believe-- but which is which?"
30394	Ramsdell?"
30394	Renwick?"
30394	See here, Porter, what sort of tom- foolery is this?"
30394	Then I think you already know what I am going to do?"
30394	Then like a flash another thought came into his mind-- was Ward Porton connected in any way with this affair?
30394	To pick up some new stories?"
30394	Watson?"
30394	Watson?"
30394	What are you fellows up to?"
30394	What do you think about it?"
30394	What do you think of that?
30394	What ever would a person do with them?"
30394	What have I done?"
30394	What have you to say for yourself?"
30394	What if you should have trouble with some of those awful Mexican bandits?"
30394	What is that?"
30394	What is the matter-- can''t you find them?"
30394	What is yours?"
30394	What''s going on here?"
30394	What''s the matter here?"
30394	Where did you go?"
30394	Where is he?"
30394	Who is that?"
30394	Why did n''t you stop when I called to you before?"
30394	Will you kindly let me know why you do not settle up as promised?
30394	Wo n''t it be fine?"
30394	Wot is he-- your twin brother?"
30394	You do n''t mean it?
30394	You do n''t want to face that wind, do you?
30394	You would n''t call him horrid, would you, when he looks so very much like Dave?"
30394	are you going to do all those wonderful things?"
30394	are you going to start right away?"
30394	are you sure he has those pictures?"
30394	are you sure?"
30394	but it''s some cold, is n''t it?"
30394	but this is the worst yet, is n''t it?"
30394	could it be that awful Ward Porton?"
30394	did n''t you suspect it might be a trick?"
30394	do you call those revolutionists?"
30394	do you mean it?"
30394	do you suppose he is armed?"
30394	do you think they have run away?"
30394	getting up already?"
30394	has he got those miniatures?"
30394	how''ll I know that feller if I do find him?"
30394	is that you?"
30394	not even cigarettes?"
30394	then you will really have to go away down there?"
30394	were you sure it was that Ward Porton?"
30394	what are you going to do if you do n''t pass?"
30394	what can that mean?"
30394	what do you suppose I did?"
30394	what do you suppose we had better do?"
30394	what would you do with a hundred thousand dollars''worth of soft soap?"
30394	what''s the matter now?"
30394	what''s this?"
30394	who''s that up there?"
12734	A train?
12734	And were you the only man who had the drop on us?
12734	And what is that mistake, sir, if you please?
12734	Anyone hit? 12734 Anyone you want us to catch?
12734	Anything more to say to me?
12734	Are any of the others going?
12734	Are the cross- hairs, as you see them through the telescope, just on the mark?
12734	Are there many like Mr. Peter Bad in these hills nowadays?
12734	Are you homeward bound--- when you go?
12734	Are you, indeed?
12734	Assassins coming to wipe out the camp?
12734	Black, do you draw any comfort from feeling that you''re boss of such an outfit? 12734 Blaze, wo n''t you take us inside and put us in our high chairs?"
12734	Boston or Binghamton?
12734	But who can the villains be?
12734	But who_ is_ going to boss the camp?
12734	But why should he do it purposely?
12734	By the way, Mr. Rutter-----"Well?
12734	Ca n''t you two tenderfeet mind your own business?
12734	Can Your Road Save Its Charter Now?
12734	Can that pond be easily forded?
12734	Can you run a level well?
12734	Can you tell us now, Mr. Blaisdell, what we''re to do today?
12734	Cheap baggage, are we?
12734	Come over here and read it, sir?
12734	Come through a hot fire?
12734	Country surveyors, these gentlemen, I suppose?
12734	Cub engineers, eh, tenderfoot?
12734	Cub, you heard what Black said?
12734	Did Mr. Newnham tell you that you could promise that?
12734	Did Mr. Rutter leave any orders for me?
12734	Did Pete show these young men his fighting front?
12734	Did you aim at him?
12734	Did you call me here for any such fool talk as that?
12734	Did you ever hear of ways of cutting out a telegraph wire and then attaching one of the cut ends to a box relay?
12734	Did you have to go very far for it?
12734	Did you hear from him or of him in any way?
12734	Did you see Bad Pete today?
12734	Do we have to walk all the way back to camp?
12734	Do you all know Black by sight?
12734	Do you belong with the telegraph construction crowd?
12734	Do you blame people for loving the Rocky Mountains? 12734 Do you call murder romantic?"
12734	Do you expect me, young men, to detail an experienced engineer to move about with you as instructor until you learn enough to be of use to us?
12734	Do you happen to know the hiding- place of the camp?
12734	Do you know how long I''ve been looking for this sort o''thing, pardner?
12734	Do you know the name of the operator at Brewster''s?
12734	Do you mean to tell me,broke in Rutter,"that Bad Pete, when he turned his revolver loose on you, was shooting nothing but blanks?"
12734	Do you see that bald knob of rock ahead, to your left; about a quarter of a mile away?
12734	Do you see what he has done to my revolvers"How did Reade come to have it?
12734	Do you think I''m fool enough to ditch the train? 12734 Do you want to have the trigger of that pistol pulled?"
12734	Do you want us to show him to you?
12734	Do you?
12734	Doctor,began Tom,"will you give me your word of honor that Mr. Thurston is in his right mind?"
12734	DoctoredField Notes?
12734	Does he?
12734	Does it mean that the state would then turn around and sell this road to the W.C.& A. at a good profit?
12734	Down this way to see your first train go through? 12734 Drilled me through the head--- with what?"
12734	Eat this grass, too?
12734	Eh?
12734	Eh?
12734	Following your own advice?
12734	From what technical school do you come?
12734	From whom can you get orders?
12734	Gentlemen, what is your pleasure?
12734	Going to shoot, is he?
12734	Harry, could anything be tougher? 12734 Has Fulsbee any suspicions?"
12734	Have a cigar?
12734	Have you the courage to try?
12734	Hazelton, do You carry a pocket glass?
12734	He is, oh?
12734	Hello, Black--- is that you?
12734	Here, what''s the trouble?
12734	How are our sick men?
12734	How are you going to do it?
12734	How are you on drawing, Reade?
12734	How are you, Peter?
12734	How do you do, sir?
12734	How do you like it?
12734	How does it seem to know that you have only to beckon and that men must follow?
12734	How far is that?
12734	How long before that train will be here?
12734	How long before you expect to have the line up with the camp?
12734	How long will it take them to get well?
12734	How many men has Bad Pete killed?
12734	How soon shall I go to work, sir?
12734	How would Black, by turning in some wrong backsights and foresights, expect to delay the building of the road, even if he wanted to do it?
12734	How''s Reade?
12734	How?
12734	How?
12734	How?
12734	Howdy, pardners?
12734	However, can you tell us the way to the camp?
12734	I beg your pardon, sir,galled Tom,"but can you tell us-----""Who are ye looking at?"
12734	I have predicted, all along, that we''d have the road through in time, have n''t I?
12734	I wonder if the cub suspects the game I''m playing here? 12734 I''ll get bounced out of mess on account of two pasty- faced tenderfeet like those boys, will I?"
12734	I? 12734 Idling, as usual, Reade?"
12734	If he does?
12734	If that fellow''s a westerner, driver,Tom persisted,"have you any idea how many days he has been west?"
12734	Is Mr. Newnham likely to make much of a shake- up?
12734	Is Reade really so valuable, then?
12734	Is any one of our fellows hit?
12734	Is anything wrong?
12734	Is assassination in the plans of the people behind''Gene Black''s treachery? 12734 Is either one of them fit to talk with the president?"
12734	Is he really bad?
12734	Is he?
12734	Is that the way the meals are brought out every day?
12734	Is that the way you take your exercise?
12734	Is that what you mean by hustling?
12734	Is that why you have n''t a rifle yourself?
12734	Is the doctor staying with Reynolds?
12734	Is your own work all done?
12734	It looks lazy,yawned Tom,"but what can I do?
12734	It''s our railroad, is n''t it? 12734 Journey?"
12734	Let me see, Reade,continued Mr. Thurston, turning once more to Tom,"what is your salary?"
12734	Let you go--- before the road is running?
12734	Lonely, Reade?
12734	Master?
12734	May I ask, sir, if you verified any of the sights on Nineteen?
12734	May I go along, sir, to serve as the other rodman?
12734	May I make a suggestion, sir?
12734	May we come in?
12734	Mr. Fulsbee, do you accept the offer of six thousand as chief detective for the road,"Does a man accept an invitation to eat when he''s hungry?
12734	Mr. Rutter,asked Tom, approaching the temporary chief, soon after the evening meal,"what do you want Hazelton and myself to do this evening?"
12734	Much obliged, are you?
12734	My turn?
12734	Never had any training in that line?
12734	New men in the chain gang?
12734	Not do any more work, What do you mean, Reade? 12734 Not do us any good?"
12734	Not going to stay behind and sit in an easy chair this morning, Reade?
12734	Nothing in particular? 12734 Now tell me, Reade, whether you want the post I have offered you?"
12734	Now, what shall we do?
12734	On my cot?
12734	Orders?
12734	Out for the air, Reade?
12734	Pete?
12734	Poison?
12734	Prove it?
12734	Rattler?
12734	Reade and Hazelton, you''ve had the pleasure of meeting Pete, I believe?
12734	Reade, do n''t you really believe that the stress is over--- that we shall triumph tonight?
12734	Reade, have you noted any signs of my mind failing lately?
12734	Reade, is this true?
12734	Reade, why should there be such scoundrels in the world?
12734	Reade,came in another whisper,"can you--- have you the courage to take the post of acting chief?"
12734	Reade,he demanded,"Did that thing strike you?"
12734	Reade?
12734	Really bad?
12734	Rich men''s sons, coming out to learn the ways of the Rookies?
12734	Rutter, do you feel equal to running this field corps until either Blaisdell or I can take charge again?
12734	Say, are you two tenderfeet trying to git fresh with me?
12734	Say, was n''t Old Dut Jones, of the Central Grammar, rough on boys who used putty- blowers in the schoolroom?
12734	See here, Harry, in the field we tried to do the work of a man and a half each, did n''t we? 12734 See the nail head in the top of the stake?"
12734	See the time?
12734	See those transits?
12734	Seriously, Tom, do n''t you believe that you''d better take one of the revolvers that I bought and wear it on a belt?
12734	Shall I drop him, Black?
12734	Shall I pull the trigger, Black?
12734	Shall we step over there and announce ourselves?
12734	Sick?
12734	So that''s your trick? 12734 So you cut the wire, oh, and attached box relays?"
12734	That burro outfit in sight?
12734	That you, Pete?
12734	That,grinned Reade,"was when he started in to reload?
12734	The cub? 12734 The young man will be all right, squaw?"
12734	Then I suppose you have no objections if I sit in here a while?
12734	Then do you mind telling us just how we should approach the chief engineer?
12734	Then who''ll call us?
12734	Then why does n''t Blaisdell look out that no such treacherous work is done by any member of the engineer corps?
12734	Then why,he asked,"did you come here?
12734	Then you believe that is the word, do you?
12734	Then you must really be working for the road that wants to steal the charter away--- the W.C.& A.?
12734	Then you think Bad Pete is a coward, young man?
12734	Then you''re going to stay boss for the present?
12734	This grand, massive scenery makes a human being feel small, does n''t it?
12734	This--- er--- Bad Pete is n''t an--- er--- that is, a road agent, is he?
12734	Thurston did n''t seem extremely cordial, did he?
12734	Trouble?
12734	Twenty dollars?
12734	Want any?
12734	Want it?
12734	Was that the trick you played on me?
12734	We''ve got to have it, have n''t we?
12734	Well, Rutter, I take it you are running the camp from now on?
12734	Well, are there many like Peter Bad in these mountains?
12734	Well, why should he be cordial?
12734	What are you going to do with the State University students?
12734	What are you talking about?
12734	What are you?
12734	What became of the reptile that did the trick?
12734	What can I do for you, sir?
12734	What can you do?
12734	What d''ye want of the camp?
12734	What did you do with those you had last night?
12734	What do you know about this, Harry?
12734	What do you mean by shooting at a flag of truce?
12734	What do you mean?
12734	What do you mean?
12734	What do you mean?
12734	What do you want of the camp?
12734	What do you want, pardner?
12734	What does he know about us? 12734 What does he think the W.C.& A. will try to do?"
12734	What does this mean?
12734	What happened?
12734	What have you been doing? 12734 What have you to say to this, cub?"
12734	What nonsense are you talking, Reade? 12734 What of it?"
12734	What time do we turn out in the morning?
12734	What were you going to say?
12734	What''s going to stop me?
12734	What''s that noise?
12734	What''s the first thing you''re going to do?
12734	What''s the matter with it?
12734	What''s the matter with the company?
12734	What''s the matter?
12734	What''s the row, chief?
12734	What''s the use?
12734	What''s up, Tom?
12734	What''s your hurry, Peter?
12734	What? 12734 Whatter yer names?"
12734	When will Mr. Thurston be back?
12734	When?
12734	Where are the revolvers?
12734	Where are you?
12734	Where be you, pardner?
12734	Where did that party ahead come from, driver?
12734	Where do you want your kit boxes placed? 12734 Where is the wagon?"
12734	Where''s Blaisdell, then?
12734	Where''s Tom?
12734	Where''s the boss?
12734	Where''s the boy?
12734	Where''s the chief engineer?
12734	Where''s the chief?
12734	Which leg was it? 12734 Who do you suppose is holding the white cloth?"
12734	Who else would have any interest in blocking us?
12734	Who gives the main orders?
12734	Who is he?
12734	Who is that party?
12734	Who is, then?
12734	Who''s doing that work? 12734 Why am I discharged?"
12734	Why are you uncertain about me?
12734	Why do I need a rifle?
12734	Why do n''t you go on with it?
12734	Why do they call him''Bad''?
12734	Why, not?
12734	Why, what do you mean?
12734	Will you give us our orders on drawing before you go, sir?
12734	Will you please tell us where Mr. Thurston is?
12734	With all the political pull our crowd has behind it do you suppose we fear a little thing like that?
12734	With all the work there is ahead of us, sir?
12734	Without a clock to ring an alarm?
12734	Wo n''t be out of work, eh?
12734	Wo n''t you oblige us by going at once, Pete?
12734	Would that statement go in court, or before a legislature?
12734	Would we need that much?
12734	Yes--- sir?
12734	Yes; but how did I come to do it?
12734	Yes; is Mr. Reade here?
12734	Yes?
12734	Yet why?
12734	You baby--- papoose?
12734	You believe, then, that she can pull Reade through?
12734	You ca n''t spare me from the day''s work?
12734	You can get an extension of time, ca n''t you?
12734	You do n''t for a moment suppose we''d trust you with original work until we had tried you out, do you? 12734 You fully believe that he knew just what he was doing?"
12734	You guessed it--- and yet the camp has been left undefended? 12734 You idiot--- what are you doing?"
12734	You know more I do?
12734	You know something about rattlesnake bites, I believe?
12734	You know what to do----eh? 12734 You mean the party ahead at the bend of the trail?"
12734	You never smoked? 12734 You remember the unfordable pond that came in one of my courses yesterday?"
12734	You think I make death medicine?
12734	You think me heap fool?
12734	You try out a lot of men here, do n''t you?
12734	You''re going back to the construction camp?
12734	You''re going back to the construction force?
12734	You''re going to say, I suppose, that the man is just some freak escaped from the pages of a dime novel?
12734	You''ve already been over this work that we''ve been doing?
12734	You''ve been away?
12734	You''ve ordered all the men in?
12734	_ All_?
12734	_ Do_ I want any?
12734	& L. through within charter time?"
12734	& L.''s field camp of engineers?"
12734	A forty- man boss is quite a little figure in politics, is n''t he, sheriff?"
12734	After lecturing me the way you did, you are not going to get cold feet, are you?"
12734	Am I discharged from this corps?"
12734	Are you going to pay me now?"
12734	Are you sure that you know all you owlet to know about leveling?"
12734	Are you visiting the camp?"
12734	Assistant chief engineer?"
12734	Black?"
12734	Blaisdell?"
12734	Blaisdell?"
12734	But have you got the money?"
12734	But why should you care?
12734	CHAPTER IX"DOCTORED"FIELD NOTES?
12734	CHAPTER XXII"CAN YOUR ROAD SAVE ITS CHARTER NOW?"
12734	Ca n''t we do what we please with our own road?"
12734	Ca n''t you get rid of him?"
12734	Ca n''t you see that, Reade?"
12734	Can he be the enemy''s spy within our lines--- sent to prevent our finishing the road on time?"
12734	Can you guess what it is?"
12734	Can you place me in immediate wire communication with professor in charge of party?
12734	Can your road save its charter_ now_?"
12734	Did you notice what snapping black eyes the man has?
12734	Do you imagine Mr. Newnham will care about a little thing such as I''ve promised the men?
12734	Do you know, Reade, I''ve taken a big liking to you?"
12734	Do you see dust near there?"
12734	Do you see the problem?"
12734	Do you see what that means?"
12734	Do you think you can fire me--- and get away with it?"
12734	Drawing?"
12734	Eighteen dollars, is n''t it?"
12734	For the last time, are you going to answer my question?"
12734	Got the line?
12734	Had n''t Mr. Fulsbee better get his force together as soon as possible?
12734	Harry, do you think that Black could possibly be serving with this outfit as the paid tool of the rival road, the W.C.& A.?
12734	Have n''t you something hotter?"
12734	He glanced at Tom''s drawing with some contempt, then inquired:"Drawing, boy?"
12734	He has a code of signatures for train orders--- a different signature to be used for messages at each station?"
12734	How are you, Reade?"
12734	How soon will it be safe to start?"
12734	I wonder if anyone here knows where ice can be had?
12734	I wonder what effect she expects an Indian song to have on snake poison?"
12734	I wonder why Mr. Thurston never hit upon the idea of adding such a force?"
12734	If a fellow is n''t afraid of anything, then why does he have to carry firearms to protect himself?"
12734	In the meantime what was the squaw doing with Tom?
12734	Mr. Reade, have you seen anything through the glasses that looks interesting?"
12734	NOW, will your through train reach Lineville tonight?
12734	Newnham?"
12734	Now, do you believe you will get your train through tonight?"
12734	Or is putting me under the sod merely an addition that Black has made for his own pleasure?"
12734	Reade, what are you doing?"
12734	Savvy that?
12734	Savvy?"
12734	That little scratch?"
12734	That, in fact, you seem wholly indolent in the matter?"
12734	Then Black turned again to the operator, saying:"Ask the other box relay man if anything has happened near him?"
12734	Then, realizing that he was about to say too much, he went on:"What did you find wrong with my sights on Nineteen?"
12734	Understand?
12734	We''ll blow out the roadbed here, and then where are you?"
12734	We''re fools, are we?"
12734	We''re trying to break in here and make a living, but how does he know that we''re not a pair of merely cheerful idiots?"
12734	Were they to stand and throw rocks at an enemy armed with rifles?
12734	Were you struck?"
12734	What are you going to do with him?"
12734	What have you to say, Hazelton?"
12734	What made you think that you could break in as engineers?"
12734	What''s the hind- leg of his name?"
12734	Whatcher want here, pardner?"
12734	Where are the revolvers, Reader?
12734	Where is the ice to go?"
12734	Where shall we find it in these mountains in midsummer?"
12734	Where''s your operating tent?"
12734	Where''s your through train?
12734	Why should he?
12734	Will everyone of you pledge himself on his honor to drop all feeling that might interfere?
12734	Will you all stand loyally by Reade, take his orders and help boost him and all the rest of us through to victory in this big game?"
12734	Will you bring them here with all speed and let us try them out?
12734	Ye know where Bandy''s Gulch is?"
12734	Yet does n''t it seem too''fresh''in a cub like myself to take such a post?"
12734	You have n''t taken any steps to protect the company''s rights and property at this point?"
12734	You realize at last--- eh?---that you''ve lost your train and your charter--- your railroad?"
12734	You see?"
12734	You''re another Peter Bad, are you?"
12734	sneered Black"We''re people whom you can beat with your cheap little tricks about a different signature for each station on the line, are we?
14369	A baby? 14369 A general, or only a colonel?"
14369	All going right, Corbett?
14369	Am I to infer, Prenter, that you are going to follow your occasional tactics and try to laugh me out of my decision as president of the company?
14369	Am mah eardrum done gone busted? 14369 Am''yo''gwine beliebe dat yo''kain''t wish no kind oh a trick ober on me?"
14369	An army officer?
14369	And Greg?
14369	And he refuses?
14369	And try to find the bombs?
14369	And you never called me?
14369	And you''ll have the money?
14369	And you''ll throw them down harder than before?
14369	And you, Mr. Prescott--- may I depend upon you, also, to preserve silence?
14369	Another explosion?
14369	Any beard?
14369	Any decent cigars here?
14369	Are all the others up?
14369	Are there any visitors in camp to- night who should n''t be here?
14369	Are you going to have the water dragged?
14369	Are you going to jump your bail, and leave me to pay the bond?
14369	Are you going to run for assistance now, Tom?
14369	Are you going to stand for it, men?
14369	Are you going to try to keep me out of all the excitement and fun?
14369	Are you going to wait for daylight? 14369 Are you hurt?"
14369	Are you trying to signal us, Sambo?
14369	At what hour shall I call you?
14369	Be careful, wo n''t you, sir?
14369	Black or white?
14369	Break yo''bail?
14369	But do you know Evarts?
14369	But eef he do?
14369	But how could I know that the night would be pitch dark?
14369	But what have you to do with one?
14369	But where on earth did Nicolas learn that trick?
14369	But why should he want to please Evarts in such a matter?
14369	But you suspect it, do n''t you?
14369	But you, Senor?
14369	But, Senor, suppose thees scoundrel free himself?
14369	Ca n''t you guess?
14369	Color of his clothes?
14369	Conlon, are you pushing the engines for all it''s worth?
14369	Corbett, you have the handcuffs I gave you the other night, have n''t you?
14369	Could you pick him out of a crowd of negroes?
14369	Dem gamblers an''bootleggers ain''done got bail yet, has they, sah?
14369	Den de w''ite gemman who done fu''nish yo''bond will be feelin''bad, wo n''t he?
14369	Den yo''wo n''t call me Tar Baby no mo?
14369	Did Evarts pay you fellows a salary, or commission?
14369	Did n''t I come forward promptly on your bail?
14369	Did you ever see more wicked neglect of important duty? 14369 Did you hear that, man?"
14369	Did you notice, sir, that I turned the light right up at the sky, first- off?
14369	Did you really find out anything?
14369	Did you think that I could feel any other way about it?
14369	Do n''t you make out the motor boat''s lights yet?
14369	Do you call me a prisoner, too?
14369	Do you feel that you''ll keep within the appropriation by making enemies who deliberately blow up our masonry?
14369	Do you mean to ask whether I was scared by the cowardly, unsigned letter that I received this evening?
14369	Do you mean to say that you are going to go on with your fool way of doing things?
14369	Do you mean to say that you would n''t use the knowledge?
14369	Do you see what caught my eye?
14369	Do you share Mr. Prenter''s infatuation for those two young men?
14369	Do you think you ever saw him before?
14369	Do you want them for fighting, sir?
14369	Do you want to take charge of these?
14369	Does the hundred dollars come out of the company treasury, Reade, or from your own pocket?
14369	Eh?
14369	Eh?
14369	Eh?
14369	Evarts, why on earth did you send for me?
14369	Evarts? 14369 Even though at least eight thousand dollars in damage was done last night?"
14369	Give in?
14369	Going to board her on the quarter?
14369	Going to employ spotters on the camp?
14369	Harry,Tom broke in,"just what did that negro look like?"
14369	Has Mr. Bascomb put in an appearance here?
14369	Have you a pair of pliers in your tool box that''ll cut small wires?
14369	Have you any ideas whatever on the subject of Hazelton''s disappearance?
14369	Have you any notion of giving in to that extent?
14369	Have you any telegraph blanks here?
14369	Have you paper, pen and ink here?
14369	Hazelton--- killed?
14369	He furnished a five thousand surety?
14369	He is n''t going to interfere with any amusements that are properly carried on--- eh, Reade?
14369	He''d have hailed us, then, in passing, would n''t he?
14369	Hear what?
14369	Here, what are you trying to do?
14369	How about the contract, sir, between your company and Reade& Hazelton? 14369 How can I look at them?"
14369	How could that Mexican wallop a giant?
14369	How did it happen, sir?
14369	How did the enemy come to catch you napping, Corbett?
14369	How did you know I was here?
14369	How did you like West Point?
14369	How does it seem to be an army officer?
14369	How long are we to keep our hands up?
14369	How long can you stay with us?
14369	How many hours does it take you to get awake when you''re called in the middle of the night?
14369	How much?
14369	How much?
14369	How on earth do you think you could defend a contract against a wealthy company like ours? 14369 However, old fellow, we''re not going to fight, are we?
14369	Humph, Evarts, a lot of good you can do us here, ca n''t you?
14369	Hurt? 14369 I wonder if he is going to get cranky?"
14369	I wonder if that boat can be in the service of those who are annoying us?
14369	I--- I''ll wait here, Mr. Renshaw, will you keep me company?
14369	I?
14369	Insult you? 14369 Is Mr. Bascomb here?"
14369	Is he, too, one of the conspirators? 14369 Is he?"
14369	Is it against any law for an outsider to come into camp?
14369	Is it any of your particular business?
14369	Is n''t my meaning clear enough?
14369	Is that proposition number two, sir?
14369	Is that revolting row all over?
14369	Is that you, Evarts?
14369	Is there a warrant out against him?
14369	Is this blackmail never to cease?
14369	It''s about time to turn in, is n''t it?
14369	It''s not to go back and fight, single- handed, is it?
14369	Just what are you doing here?
14369	Kain''t yo''?
14369	Keep your eyes open, wo n''t you? 14369 Let this crowd of scoundrels shoot up the jail guards, and do they think the citizens would ever allow the gang to operate in camp?
14369	Man, do n''t you think I have a nose?
14369	Man, have n''t you come to your senses yet?
14369	Maybe yo''d like de job ob tendin''to Boss Reade yo''so''f?
14369	Meaning that the larger crowd may be a sort of vice trust, operating in many fields at the same time?
14369	Men,he demanded,"are you going to be free, or are you going to allow yourselves to be treated like a lot of slaves by this boy?"
14369	Mr. Bascomb,Tom called,"did you tell Evarts that he might visit this camp?"
14369	Mr. Corbett, did none of your men patrolling on the wall report any signs of strangers?
14369	Mr. Reade, how are you going to protect the works to- night?
14369	My cowardice has made a dreadful mess of things in a lot of ways, has n''t it?
14369	Nebber heard ob it befo'', eh, boss?
14369	Now, Reade, does n''t that amount of wanton, revengeful mischief teach you the folly of trying to regulate camp life outside of working hours?
14369	Now, do you think it''s going to be well to interfere so much with the movements of the men?
14369	Now, see here, my man, if I did n''t want you why on earth would I call you out in the middle of the night?
14369	Now, what fool or rogue could have signed that fellow''s bail bond?
14369	Now, what is the nature and extent of the mutiny?
14369	Now, what is up?
14369	Now, what''s all this row that you wired us about?
14369	Now, what''s the programme?
14369	Oh, it''s you, is it, Prenter?
14369	Oh, it''s you, is it?
14369	Oh, then you''d rather wait and be forced out?
14369	Or have I been listening to human signals? 14369 Peters, we have plenty of really good men among our laborers, have n''t we?"
14369	Prenter,suggested the president of the company,"what do you say if you and I prowl in some other direction?
14369	Pulling my work to pieces, are you, Tom?
14369	Reade, are n''t you going to take us down to the water front and show us the extent of the damage?
14369	Reade, how long would it take you to get an electric light service going?
14369	Reade,he finally blurted out,"how long were you hiding there before Evarts found you there?"
14369	Real birds?
14369	Rest?
14369	Say, where''s Greg?
14369	Scars?
14369	See here, just what is your errand in this camp?
14369	See him anywhere now, chum?
14369	See them--- the two upper ones?
14369	Senor Hazelton, where is he?
14369	Shall I land you there, sir?
14369	Sleep? 14369 So this is the way our newly- found enemies will fight us?"
14369	So this is you, Nicolas?
14369	So you''ve openly joined the enemy, Evarts?
14369	So, Nicolas, you rascal, you have n''t gone to bed?
14369	So?
14369	So?
14369	Start?
14369	Such as what, sir?
14369	Suppose we run into the bombs, and they prove to be contact exploders, too?
14369	Tell me who''s at the wheel?
14369	That convicts me of cowardice, does n''t it, in not having come to your aid at the moment of attack? 14369 That negro simply burst his bonds--- and now where is he?
14369	The discharged foreman?
14369	The officers? 14369 The two details we now need,"Reade continued,"are, first, who was the negro?
14369	Then I''m to be a prisoner?
14369	Then he was n''t one of our men in this camp at any time?
14369	Then how are you going to meet it?
14369	Then what theory can explain it?
14369	Then why did n''t you hear from him further?
14369	Then you acquit me of cowardice?
14369	Then you approve, sir, of my intention to keep him out?
14369	Then you do n''t believe me?
14369	Then you do n''t believe that Mr. Bascomb''s evil record of past years affects his honesty now?
14369	Then you do n''t need us, after all?
14369	Then you have n''t a theory?
14369	Then you were near us, Mr. Prenter, when Evarts and the negro charged us?
14369	Then you''re inclined, now, to believe that it was purely imagination?
14369	Then--- then I--- I can rely upon your silence?
14369	Then--- then--- y- y- you heard all of my talk with Evarts?
14369	There are gambling and bootlegging going on in this camp to- night, are n''t there?
14369	There are no others of their kind here, then?
14369	Tom, you remember the big black man I imagined that I saw last night?
14369	Two more of Evarts''s bootleggers, eh?
14369	Unless what?
14369	Used to be your foreman?
14369	W''at am dat, massa?
14369	W''at yo''talkin''''bout?

14369	Well, then, where is the fellow?
14369	Well, what are you howling about?
14369	Well, what are you standing there for?
14369	Well, what do you think you''re going to do with me?
14369	Well, where is he?

14369	What are you doing here?
14369	What are you doing here?
14369	What are you doing in these waters?
14369	What are you doing in this camp?
14369	What are you going to do to find Nicolas?
14369	What are you going to do?
14369	What are you up to?
14369	What could it have been?
14369	What craft is that?
14369	What did I tell you about earlier hours?
14369	What did I tell you, boys?
14369	What did you do when you came to, Nicolas?
14369	What do you mean by that?
14369	What do you mean, Reade?
14369	What do you take me for?
14369	What happened to you?
14369	What have rest and I to do with each other just now?
14369	What is it?
14369	What is that, sir?
14369	What on earth can Bascomb be doing here?
14369	What on earth can be keeping good old Tom?
14369	What part has Mr. Bascomb been playing in this mystery that he''s so afraid of having become public?
14369	What row?
14369	What shall we do first?
14369	What was all the row about?
14369	What was that, Tar?
14369	What would the negro want of Nicolas?
14369	What''s all this dispute about anyway, Bascomb?
14369	What''s his name?
14369	What''s the idea, sir?
14369	What''s the matter?
14369	What''s the plan?
14369	What''s your name?
14369	What--- me? 14369 When are you going to change your seat and stop making me feel like a very thin pancake?"
14369	When you have your mind made up about--- what?
14369	Where in the world have you been?
14369	Where is Mr. Hazelton then?
14369	Where on earth are they?
14369	Where to?
14369	Where''s Evarts?
14369	Where''s this man''s gang- master?
14369	Which especial way of being thrown out do you prefer then?
14369	Which way are you going?
14369	Who are you, and what are you doing around here?
14369	Who are you?
14369	Who dar?
14369	Who doin''dat?
14369	Who started this craft against my orders?
14369	Who''ll take charge here? 14369 Who''s there?
14369	Who''s there?
14369	Who''s there?
14369	Whose permission?
14369	Whose voice was it?
14369	Why did n''t you wire me?
14369	Why not?
14369	Why on earth should he bail out Evarts?
14369	Why should I mind?
14369	Why should he want to be watching us?
14369	Why, what are you going to do to me?
14369	Why, you did n''t doubt but that I''d turn up as surely as any other bad egg, did you?
14369	Why?
14369	Why?
14369	Will they?
14369	Will you come down to the water, and go out with me to look at the damage, sir?
14369	Will you trust me with the boat?
14369	Yes, sir, and who do you suppose went on his bond?
14369	Yes?
14369	Yet_ is_ Mr. Bascomb really fit to be trusted?
14369	You admit having chased out the gamblers, do n''t you?
14369	You did n''t know that torpedoes are used for wicked work either, eh?
14369	You did?
14369	You do n''t, eh?
14369	You have n''t had any sleep lately, have you, Dick?
14369	You look for trouble to break to- night?
14369	You want me?
14369	You''ll do it--- just like this, eh?
14369	You''re a gang- master?
14369	You''re a nice crew, are n''t you?
14369	You''re not going to try to raise the things with the boathook, are you?
14369	You''re the president of the company, are n''t you?
14369	You''ve seen the leader?
14369	You''ve solved the mystery and caught the fellow who has been dynamiting the wall?
14369	You, Senor?
14369	_ Quien vive_?
14369	''"_"Is that a declaration of war?"
14369	( who''s there?)
14369	Ah got plenty ob dat accommerdation""What magneto are you talking about?"
14369	And what are they?"
14369	Are you coming out of that boat--- or shall I come back after you?"
14369	Are you wide awake, now?"
14369	Are you working on the breakwater job?"
14369	As an army officer and an engineer what do you think of it?"
14369	Bascomb?"
14369	But are you going to do anything to protect the wall to- night, Tom?"
14369	But do you and Tom continue to find engineering the grandest career on earth?"
14369	But--- are you thoroughly awake, now?"
14369	By the way, how much will it cost to repair the damage to the retaining walls?"
14369	CHAPTER XVIII THE ARMY"ON THE JOB""You, Dick?"
14369	CHAPTER XX A SECRET IN SIGHT"Mr. Prenter,"asked Tom suddenly,"is there anything about which you wish to see me just now?"
14369	Ca n''t I get enough of that when I go aboard a Pullman again and am riding out to Colorado?
14369	Can you get one?"
14369	Comprenay?
14369	Did you imagine that you could keep on defying all the laws?
14369	Did you notice it, too, Bascomb?"
14369	Do you fellows reckon you want Mr. Reade to bump in here and shake you out?"
14369	Do you think you understand me?"
14369	Do you, Reade?"
14369	Do you?"
14369	Doan''ye''done wish dat ye''had been to camp- meeting a few times in yo''life?
14369	Doan''yo''wish ye''been honest most er de time, an''been a hahd- wo''kin'', pay- ye''-bills niggah lak some ob de rest oh us?
14369	Doan''yo''wish yo''been mo''''spectable yo''se''f?
14369	For the last time, my man, who are you and what are you doing here?"
14369	Harry described the negro who had attacked him on the retaining wall, after which Tom asked:"Have any of you men ever seen that negro?
14369	Harry, do you mind remaining out here while I run back and get the boat out?"
14369	Harry, send in our workmen, will you?"
14369	Have you any idea who he is, and where he can be found?"
14369	How much money have you in the world?
14369	How ye''feel erbout it now?
14369	Huh?"
14369	I ca n''t do anything out here to help you, can I?"
14369	I lie down?"
14369	I wonder if the fellow is going to use more than four tubes?"
14369	I wonder whether the scoundrels back of Sambo have any more novel ways for setting off their big firecrackers around our wall?"
14369	Is n''t that so, Reade?"
14369	Is peace better than war?
14369	May I therefore ask, sir, if there is any especial reason why Evarts should be allowed in this camp?"
14369	Me?
14369	Men, do you realize that there''s foul play afoot out on the retaining wall?
14369	Mr. Bascomb, why do n''t you yourself disclose this little affair in your past history to the board of directors?
14369	My man,"turning to the messenger,"are you going back to Evarts?"
14369	Now what is the second proposition, sir?"
14369	Now, do you understand?"
14369	Officer, do you demand the assistance of all present in any police duty that may come up?"
14369	Or a cold- foot?"
14369	Police?"
14369	Reade?"
14369	Reade?"
14369	Reade?"
14369	Reade?"
14369	Regular cabin cruiser, is n''t she, about forty feet long?"
14369	Savvy?
14369	Scipio, why have n''t you started that fellow away from here?"
14369	Second, who was behind the negro in this rascally work?"
14369	So Mr. Bascomb demanded your resignation?"
14369	So you''re the bootlegger who is bringing this stuff into camp to sell to the men?
14369	Speaking of mystery, could anything be stranger, or harder to explain, than what happened to poor Hazelton?"
14369	Then Nicolas came along and put the negro out of the fight, and---""Nicolas?"
14369	There are other vendors here, too, are there?"
14369	To what effect?
14369	Understand?
14369	W''at yo''done think yo''_ can_ do?"
14369	Want me to dump the pitcher of water on you?
14369	What do you suppose I did, Mr. Reade, as soon as the explosion sounded?"
14369	What do you suppose has happened?"
14369	What time do you want to be up, Tom?"
14369	What''s wanted?"
14369	When you know how the Melliston Company feels toward you, you do n''t want to be impudent enough to insist on hanging on, do you?"
14369	Where are you, and what are you doing?"
14369	Where could he run to?
14369	Where is Nicolas, for that matter?
14369	Where is he?"
14369	Why should n''t vice be?"
14369	Why, if he were killed, what became of the body?"
14369	Would n''t you like to go over through the camp with us?"
14369	Yet how could he have vanished so completely, and what possibly could have happened to his assailant or assailants?
14369	Yet tell me, how did you happen to be at hand to- night in time to save me from Mr. Sambo Ebony?"
14369	You''re finding your voice, are you, my man?"
14369	You''ve seen the breakwater work?
3612	A good broad chest, eh?
3612	A hundherd a year is twelve- pound a month, is n''t it?
3612	A hwat?
3612	A salary, is it?
3612	A theory?
3612	After all, you must have had a fancy or two yourself, eh?
3612	After staying away eighteen years he can harly expect us to be very anxious to see him, can he now?
3612	Ah then, how could you stay at a public house?
3612	Ah, hwy ca n''t you hold your tongue, Patsy, before Father Dempsey?
3612	Am I interfering with him?
3612	Am I to be towld dhis afther all me sufferins?

3612	An how do you like it?

3612	An is it the afthernoon it is already?

3612	And has Mr Doyle not come with you?
3612	And how have you been all this time?
3612	And how will you drag our acres from the ferret''s grip of Matthew Haffigan?
3612	And that your shadow might never be less?
3612	And wished you more power to your elbow?
3612	And yet what else have I to write about?
3612	Anybody been looking for me?
3612	Are n''t you ashamed to talk about such things?
3612	Are you afraid of a poor insect because I pretended it was talking to me?
3612	Are you drunk, Patsy Farrell?
3612	Are you one?
3612	Are you really mad, Mr Keegan?
3612	Are you sure he''s such a fool after all, Aunt Judy?
3612	Are you wanting to get back to England already?

3612	Arra why?
3612	Arra would you mind what the like of him would tell you?
3612	Arra, hwat am I to call you?
3612	Besides, you do n''t seriously suppose that Haffigan can humbug me, do you?
3612	But did you ever say anything that would justify her in waiting for you?
3612	But do n''t you want to see your country again after 18 years absence?
3612	But how soon?
3612	But hwat man in his senses ever wanted to give land to Patsy Farrll an dhe like o him?
3612	But really and truly now, were n''t the people rather disappointing?
3612	But sure Larry''s as good as English: are n''t you, Larry?
3612	But this is such a horrible doubt to put into my mind-- to-- to-- For Heaven''s sake, Miss Reilly, am I really drunk?
3612	But was n''t it only because you knew more Latn than Father Dempsey that he was jealous of you?
3612	But what about your present member?
3612	But what sane man can deny that an Englishman''s first duty is his duty to Ireland?
3612	But what''s the use of talking to you?
3612	By the way, had n''t I better see about a room at the hotel?
3612	By the way, have you a photograph of her?
3612	Ca n''t you tell the difference between your priest and any ole madman in a black coat?
3612	Can you deny these qualities and habits in yourself, sir?
3612	Can you start tonight-- from Paddington?

3612	I mean how old were you when she came?
3612	I should think the girls must have seemed rather coarse and dowdy after the foreign princesses and people?
3612	I suppose now you''ve come out to make yourself miserable by admyerin the sunset?

3612	Is it a dangerous part you''re going to, sir?
3612	Is it making love to me you are?
3612	Is it still Larry the bould Fenian?
3612	Is it to throw meself at your head the minute the word is out o your mouth?
3612	Is that all you have to say to me, Larry?
3612	Is that the truth?
3612	Is that you, Larry?
3612	Is that your religion, to be afraid of a little deeshy grasshopper?
3612	Is that yourself, Mat Haffigan?
3612	It''s all right and comfortable and happy now, is n''t it?
3612	MATTHEW[ glowering disdainfully at Hodson, and sitting down on Cornelius''s chair as an act of social self- assertion] N are you the valley?

3612	Oh, Larry, how could you ask him such a thing?
3612	Oh, by the way, did I tell you that we''re engaged?
3612	Oh, d''ye think I''ll die before the year''s out, Fadher?
3612	Oh, how do I know?
3612	Oh, what''s the use of talking to such a man?
3612	On this holy ground, as you call it, eh?
3612	Once more, Tom, will you listen to me?
3612	Only a whimsical Irishman, eh?
3612	Or was I sober enough to be bound to repeat it now that I am undoubtedly sober?
3612	Patsy: what did I tell you about callin me Father Keegan an your reverence?
3612	Perhaps so: what is it?
3612	Quite sure?
3612	Rather a failure, this first meeting after eighteen years, eh?
3612	Revolver, sir?
3612	Savin Fadher Dempsey''s presence, eh?
3612	Shall I fetch him, sir?
3612	Shall I go for her?
3612	Shall we go down to the road and meet the car?
3612	Shall we sit down?
3612	She would n''t like it, would she?
3612	Should I be expected to carry a revolver, sir?
3612	Since when?
3612	Stop laughing: do you hear?
3612	Suppose it was a divil, what call have you to fear it?
3612	That helps you to face out the misery and the poverty and the torment, does n''t it?
3612	That''s what you call a fortune in Rosscullen, is it?
3612	That''s where I come in: eh?
3612	The point is, was I drunk enough not to be morally responsible for my proposal?
3612	The valley?
3612	Then hwat did you mane be talkin about givin him lan?
3612	Then why did n''t you if you''re an honorable man?
3612	Then you are not the first martyr of your family, Mr Haffigan?
3612	Three cheers for ould Ireland, is it?
3612	Tired?
3612	Tom: why do you select my most tragic moments for your most irresistible strokes of humor?
3612	Toujours Ballyhooly, eh?
3612	Was I fit for the responsibility or was I not?
3612	Was Patsy Farrll ever ill used as I was ill used?
3612	Was he industrious?
3612	Was that all you used to be thinking about?
3612	Was that it, Tom?
3612	We all have to stretch it a bit in politics: hwat''s the use o pretendin we do n''t?
3612	Well, Tim, will you come with me and help to break the ice between me and your warmhearted, impulsive countrymen?
3612	Well, what is there to say?
3612	Well, what shall we do?
3612	Well, what was I to do?
3612	Well, why could n''t you say so at once?
3612	Well, why not?
3612	Well-- er-- er-- well, to put it plainly, was I drunk?
3612	Well?
3612	Well?
3612	Were yever thinkin o goin into parliament at all, Larry?
3612	Were you at all hard hit?
3612	Were you spyin on me?
3612	Were you thinking of your money, Nora?
3612	What I say is, why not start a Garden City in Ireland?
3612	What am I to say to him?
3612	What are you doing here?
3612	What are you laughing at?
3612	What call have you to look down on Patsy Farrell?
3612	What call have you to look down on me?
3612	What d''ye mean by Hm!?
3612	What did Father Dempsey tell you about it?
3612	What did he ever suffer, I''d like to know?
3612	What did n''t?
3612	What did you think?
3612	What difference does that make?
3612	What do you expect me to do?
3612	What do you mean?
3612	What do you say?
3612	What do you want?
3612	What does it all come to?
3612	What good was it to them?
3612	What has Larry to do with it?
3612	What horse can go forty mile an hour?
3612	What is he to say to me?
3612	What is it like in your dreams?
3612	What is it?
3612	What is it?
3612	What is it?
3612	What is the use of giving land to such men?
3612	What is there behind it?
3612	What is there to laugh at?
3612	What might rethrenchment mane now?
3612	What more do we want to make us merry?
3612	What need you do?
3612	What of?
3612	What ought I to do?
3612	What sort of thing ded you mean, sir?
3612	What story have you heard about that?
3612	What the jeuce does Nora want to go to the Roun Tower for?
3612	What use do you suppose all this drivel is to men with serious practical business in hand?
3612	What was he doing here?
3612	What were you doin there, Patsy, listnin?
3612	What wickedness have you done to bring that curse on you?
3612	What would he be doing with a theory?
3612	What would you say if I proposed a visit to YOUR father?
3612	What''s that got to do with our English national character?
3612	What''s that you say?
3612	What''s that?
3612	What''s the good of the man that''s starved out of a farm murdering the man that''s starved into it?
3612	What''s the matter?
3612	What''s the matter?
3612	What''s to grieve them?
3612	What''s wrong with you today, Larry?
3612	What?
3612	Where else can I go?
3612	Where is Mr Haffigan?
3612	Where the devil did you pick up that seedy swindler?
3612	Where''s Mr Doyle?
3612	Where''s your father?
3612	Where''s your manners to go skyrocketin like that out o the box in the middle o your confession[ he threatens it with his stick]?
3612	Which of us has any right to reproach the other?
3612	Which would you say this counthry was: hell or purgatory?
3612	Who are you?
3612	Who are you?
3612	Who can blame him, Miss Doyle?
3612	Who can blame him?
3612	Who did he mean be that?
3612	Who''s there?
3612	Whose bruddher?
3612	Why are you so bitter?
3612	Why are you so down on every Irishman you meet, especially if he''s a bit shabby?
3612	Why ca n''t you say a simple thing simply, Larry, without all that Irish exaggeration and talky- talky?
3612	Why could n''t he throw the pig out into the road?
3612	Why could n''t they pay as well as Billy Byrne that took it after them?
3612	Why did n''t Mr Broadbent stop the car when the pig was gone?
3612	Why did n''t he wait?
3612	Why did n''t you give it up?
3612	Why did you stay here?
3612	Why do you talk to me in that unfeeling nonsensical way?
3612	Why not?
3612	Why not?
3612	Why not?
3612	Why should I be glad?
3612	Why should he come?
3612	Why should n''t it satisfy me?
3612	Why would you be such a fool as to let him take the seat in parliament from you?
3612	Why?
3612	Why?
3612	Will Doolan help you to get a license for your hotel?
3612	Will I come to Madagascar or Cochin China wid you?
3612	Will you always be duped by Acts of Parliament that change nothing but the necktie of the man that picks your pocket?
3612	Will you take it or leave it?
3612	Wo n''t you come down to Doolan''s and have a dhrop o brandy to take the shock off?
3612	Wo n''t you stay to tea?
3612	Wot else?
3612	Wots wrong with you, old chap?
3612	Would he len me five hunderd, d''ye think?
3612	Would it?
3612	Would n''t I?
3612	Would you have done such a thing?
3612	Yes of course I do: why should I tell you lies about it?
3612	Yes sir?
3612	Yes, sir?
3612	Yes, yes, yes?
3612	Yes: why not?
3612	Yes?
3612	You DO remember the places, then?
3612	You HWAT???
3612	You HWAT???
3612	You HWAT???
3612	You agree with me, Mr Keegan, do n''t you?
3612	You answer the letters?
3612	You are satisfied?
3612	You are sure you are not allowing your enthusiasm for our principles to get the better of your judgment?
3612	You do n''t feel nervous about it, I suppose?
3612	You do n''t suppose I believe it, do you?
3612	You do n''t suppose I believe you, do you?
3612	You feel at home in the world, then?
3612	You feel better now, do n''t you?
3612	You find that contact with English ideas is stimulating, eh?
3612	You have some distance to go, Mr Haffigan: will you allow me to drive you home?
3612	You know the English plan, Mr Haffigan, do n''t you?
3612	You mean that it''s an act of treachery to Larry?
3612	You schoopid ass, what d''ye mean?
3612	You understand me?
3612	You wo n''t mind me axin, will ye?
3612	You''re glad of that?
3612	You''re goin to Ireland, then, out o sympithy: is it?
3612	You''re not going to cry, are you?
3612	You''ve come to me quicker than he has, have n''t you?
3612	You''ve nothin against that, have you?
3612	[ Before moving his plate] Have you done?
3612	[ Beginning to reflect] But look here: when were you drunk?
3612	[ Fluctuating] You really think so?
3612	[ Frightened a little] Who''s that?
3612	[ Genteelly] An what do you think of Ireland, Mr Broadbent?
3612	[ Going closer to her, anxiously and tenderly] You have n''t got neuralgia, have you?
3612	[ He sits down at the writing table opposite Larry, and adds, casually, but with an anxious glance at his partner] You''re coming with me, of course?
3612	[ Pleasantly, to the subject of this description] Are we, Mat?
3612	[ Shouting] Hallo, Patsy Farrell, where are you?
3612	[ Snarling angrily at Cornelius] Am I to be compared to Patsy Farrll, that does n''t harly know his right hand from his left?
3612	[ To Broadbent] Why d''ye put up with his foolishness, Mr Broadbent?
3612	[ To Keegan] What''s the true version of the story of that black man you confessed on his deathbed?
3612	[ Whispering] Do n''t you want to stay an vote against him?
3612	[ pointing with his stick to the sunset] that''s the gate o glory, is n''t it?
3612	and hwat have you been dreaming of?
3612	d''ye see?
3612	did you now?
3612	do you think he''s had n axidnt?
3612	eh?
3612	how is that possible?
3612	is it Jews you want to make of us?
3612	is it the sofa you''re afraid of?
3612	is this English sentiment so much more efficient than our Irish sentiment, after all?
3612	it''s all right: do you think I''d let you do it if it was n''t?
3612	not less than forty- two inches-- no: do n''t fuss: never mind the conventions: we''re two friends, are n''t we?
3612	that I appear drunk to you, Miss Reilly?
3612	that you do n''t care for me?
3612	the man that told the story of Haffigan''s pig Barney Doran''s way or Broadbent''s way?
3612	then?
3612	they''ve transferred the honor to you, have they?
3612	to see your people, to be in the old home again?
3612	what do you mean?
3612	what does it matter where an old and broken man spends his last days, or whether he has a million at the bank or only the workhouse dole?
3612	where are you jumpin to?
3612	where''s me pig?
3612	which would you rather give it to?
3612	why did n''t you tell me that before?
3612	you ask my advice about Miss Reilly?
12777	A pipe?
12777	A rattlesnake?
12777	Am I to take that stuff and dump it down the ravine?
12777	And for what are we fighting?
12777	And how could we find a rattler--_here_? 12777 And plenty of papers to go with it?"
12777	And then they gave you the tobacco for cigarettes, did they?
12777	And what will you be doing?
12777	And where are our tents and the other stuff?
12777	And you did n''t believe them?
12777	And you told them-----?
12777	And you''re leaving the coast clear for that purpose?
12777	And you''re with us, Ferrers?
12777	Any color today?
12777	Any real excitement going on?
12777	Anything up?
12777	Are the tents gone?
12777	Are you a baby?
12777	Are you a doctor?
12777	Are you afraid of snakes, Alf?
12777	Are you at the bottom of the shaft, sir?
12777	Are you going down now, sir?
12777	Are you going to get away from here?
12777	Are you going to leave our camp?
12777	Are you going to let the scoundrel start?
12777	Are you going to pack the charge?
12777	Are you leaving anything to eat?
12777	Are you miners--- or machinists?
12777	Are you still hearing the snakes? 12777 Are you?"
12777	Armed?
12777	At your age? 12777 But do n''t you hear the rattlesnake?"
12777	But do you feel differently, Tom?
12777	But how did that mine come to be there?
12777	But how did you come to be on hand, Leon?
12777	But how did you guess, Tom?
12777	But if some one should?
12777	But let me ask you men,continued Tom, facing the quartette,"do you claim that you ever made legal entry of your asserted title here?"
12777	But suppose Dolph Gage and his crew come over here, and you''re not armed?
12777	But the work? 12777 But what are you going to do when the men who have a grudge against you pack guns?"
12777	But who got behind you and scared you in that fashion?
12777	But why did you follow me?
12777	But you did n''t"What if some one comes now?
12777	But, just the same, you have n''t my faith in the mine, have you?
12777	By the way, sir,suggested Tom,"you are not going to use all of your men today?"
12777	Ca n''t we arbitrate?
12777	Ca n''t you use some of my muscle in helping you to loot our camp?
12777	Can you make a noise by grinding your molars together--- your grinding teeth? 12777 Cigarettes?
12777	Could n''t you get hold of an engineer at Dugout?
12777	Daylight? 12777 Did n''t I state that Dolph Gage shot him?"
12777	Did n''t it occur to you to wonder where Mr. Hazelton was?
12777	Did n''t that fellow kill my brother in a brawl?
12777	Did n''t you hear that?
12777	Did ye--- did ye kill''em for us, Dolph?
12777	Did you ever hear of''square gamblers''?
12777	Did you hear my advice?
12777	Did you really get a button?
12777	Did you see us?
12777	Did you think I was going to run into danger?
12777	Did you think, Jim, that we had never earned any money?
12777	Did you, Harry?
12777	Did you, Leon?
12777	Did--- I get--- lost?
12777	Do I get the makings?
12777	Do n''t happen to want a cigarette, either, do you?
12777	Do n''t you s''pose I know rattlers when I hear''em?
12777	Do you believe yourself to be so valuable that any one will want to steal you?
12777	Do you expect me to believe any such fairy tales as that?
12777	Do you know Jim? 12777 Do you know him?"
12777	Do you miss anything?
12777	Do you often see a finer lump than this?
12777	Do you really want to work for Dunlop?
12777	Do you steal food, too?
12777	Do you tell me, on your sacred honor,proposed Alf,"that you have n''t heard a single rattler this afternoon?"
12777	Do you think he''s going to die, Jim?
12777	Do you think it a good plan to take up the invitation of these gentlemen, Timmins?
12777	Do you think you look as healthy as I do?
12777	Do you want me to tell you, sir?
12777	Does it really sound like the click of a rattler?
12777	Does it? 12777 Does the vein run with the top of the ridge?"
12777	Doing anything?
12777	Drew, do you think you look as healthy as I do?
12777	Dynamite?
12777	Eh?
12777	Eh?
12777	Encourage us?
12777	Fair fight?
12777	Father, why ca n''t you come out of this wild country? 12777 Ferrers, do you know what ails this boy?"
12777	Fifty dollars?
12777	Fine, is n''t it?
12777	Fine, is n''t it?
12777	For nothing, boss?
12777	For that reason, are n''t we doubly wasting our time here?
12777	For what reason?
12777	For what?
12777	From the camp?
12777	Getting anything out of those ore- tests of yesterday''s dump?
12777	Going after the guns, now?
12777	Going prospecting?
12777	Going to get back?
12777	Good pulse, eh?
12777	Got a sliver in your hand?
12777	Got any shooting irons about you?
12777	Got the makings?
12777	Got what?
12777	Harry, what''s our office address? 12777 Has he asked for me?"
12777	Has it been prospected, sir?
12777	Has n''t he pot- shotted at me? 12777 Have I?"
12777	Have we?
12777	Have you any such paper to show us?
12777	Have you been inspecting the dump as the stuff came up?
12777	Have you looked at the sky?
12777	Hear that snake?
12777	Heard a new one?
12777	Heard o''Bald Knob?
12777	Hiding here--- with the officers looking for you?
12777	Him? 12777 How about that?"
12777	How did that happen?
12777	How did they come to be here?
12777	How do you do the trick, anyway?
12777	How do you know we have n''t?
12777	How do you know?
12777	How much do you figure there is in the dump?
12777	How much is it worth, boss?
12777	How much ore did you take it from?
12777	How much tobacco have you?
12777	How much will you young men want?
12777	How soon do you begin operations?
12777	How?
12777	Hunter,Tom asked,"are you good for going down a hundred feet or so on a knotted rope?"
12777	I s''pose you''re going to take some of the boys over with us, in case Gage tries to put up any shooting bluff?
12777	I see it does?
12777	I wonder if Ferrers can get back tonight?
12777	I wonder, Tom, if we''d better get out and hustle for Jobs?
12777	I''d get some lumber together, and make a pair of skis,suggested Jim, the next day,"but what is the use?
12777	I? 12777 I?
12777	If we left a paying mine, Jim, what would we want?
12777	If you go out to look for him, you''re not going armed, are you?
12777	In what line?
12777	Is Dolph Gage hunting it?
12777	Is Mr. Ferrers going to Dugout City?
12777	Is he?
12777	Is it as bad as that?
12777	Is it going to be cold enough to put a crust on the snow?
12777	Is it magic, Jim?
12777	Is that Pringle''s own signature?
12777	Is that the way you fight, you young cub?
12777	Is that your partner''s name?
12777	Is the pain severe, Harry?
12777	Is there that much money on the Indian Smoke?
12777	It does look rather poor, does n''t it, Harry?
12777	It was in the mine, sir, was n''t it?
12777	It''ll make his fever worse, wo n''t it?
12777	It''s none of my business, as I very well know, but may I inquire what all this trouble is about?
12777	Jim,called Tom, as he ran toward their mining party,"have you any idea what''s wrong with the Gage crowd?"
12777	Just so you can find a store where you can buy cigarettes?
12777	Just that,nodded the cook,"we had trouble, once, and you came out on top, did n''t you?"
12777	Just what are you up to? 12777 Just what kind of excitement?"
12777	Lad, do n''t you know that I''ve been all over this country with old- time prospectors? 12777 Lead at twelve cents a pound?
12777	Leon,Tom demanded,"what have you been doing to that poor little shrimp of a helper?"
12777	Lost your money in your claim, have n''t you?
12777	May I ask, Tom, what you''re up to, anyway?
12777	May I stay here?
12777	Mining engineers?
12777	Mining what?
12777	Mining?
12777	Mr. Hazelton in here?
12777	Mr. Reade, shall we try to pick up a trail and follow it?
12777	Notice how still the air is? 12777 Now I can go, ca n''t I?"
12777	Now, Harry, is that all you know about me?
12777	Now, are you going to stand aside?
12777	Now, then, Gage, do you claim that this strip has been claimed by one, Pringle?
12777	Now, what do you want us to do?
12777	Now, what''s the matter with you?
12777	Oh, what''s the use?
12777	On the capital that we have left?
12777	On the other hand, you have n''t engaged us, either"Wo n''t you keep the matter open until our return?
12777	Or does our vein run in scattered pockets?
12777	Outfit the camp liberally?
12777	Read?
12777	Say, do n''t you carry the makings?
12777	Say, how many years you been smoking, Jim Ferrers?
12777	Say, what was that big explosion?
12777	Say, wo n''t you take me with you?
12777	Smoke, is it? 12777 So Jim Ferrers is over in your camp, is he?"
12777	So that the law would say that Gage fired in self- defense, eh?
12777	So you think that, when men see you smoking cigarettes, they immediately imagine you to be one of them? 12777 So you think you can come here and take it from us, do you?"
12777	So you were hanging about, ready to back up the kid?
12777	So you''ve got the''makings,''have you?
12777	So, my bright little hero, you sold us out for a toy bale of cigarettes, did you?
12777	Some trick about that rattling?
12777	Tell you something straight?
12777	That seems like a foolish risk, does n''t it?
12777	That wo n''t last us long, will it?
12777	The fighting risk?
12777	The street corner where you''re to find the money, eh, Jim?
12777	The wires?
12777	Their bill would be a claim against our mine would n''t it?
12777	Then can you stay a few days?
12777	Then had n''t we better get out of it early, and go to work for some one who pays wages?
12777	Then the killing came about through the bad practice of carrying a revolver?
12777	Then there''s no reason, Jim, under mining customs, why we should n''t ride over there and stake out that claim?
12777	Then this is where you are?
12777	Then what did you come up for?
12777	Then why are we fooling around here? 12777 Then why does n''t he get better?"
12777	Then you have n''t engaged any engineer?
12777	Then you were at their camp?
12777	Then you wo n''t be sociable?
12777	Then you''ll come over to our camp, right away?
12777	Then you''re not coming over to our place?
12777	Then--- what?
12777	There are no more men to your crowd?
12777	There, did n''t you hear it?
12777	They are?
12777	They do n''t, eh?
12777	They were guessing the size of Ferrers''s army, were they?
12777	Those little chances go with being involved in a Nevada mining dispute, do n''t they?
12777	Those men over there?
12777	Tim, do you know anything about temperatures and drugs?
12777	Tim, have you ever had any practice in looking after sick people?
12777	Tim, what does this treachery mean?
12777	Tim, what shall I do next?
12777	Today''s send- up, then?
12777	Tom, how are we going to spend the money when we get it?
12777	Tom, who''s going to take the first trick of watch tonight?
12777	Tom, you everlasting joker, what happened?
12777	Too late? 12777 Want me?"
12777	Want the team yet?
12777	Wanter know?
12777	Was that all right, Tim?
12777	Was your brother killed?
12777	We ran up against one of that brood in Arizona, eh, Harry?
12777	Well, I-----"What did the men want to know about?
12777	Well, are n''t you three working for your living, too?
12777	Well, from one of four men, then? 12777 Well, sir?"
12777	Well, we shall have Dolph Gage and his crowd to guard against, wo n''t we?
12777	Well, what could be a safer place than right where we''re wanted?
12777	Well?
12777	What am I going to do, then?
12777	What are you going to call it?
12777	What are you going to do with the cartridges, though?
12777	What are you going to do with these guns, then?
12777	What are you going to do, Tom?
12777	What are you running so fast for, Harry?
12777	What are you talking about?
12777	What brings you in this section again?
12777	What did you do to please the four men?
12777	What did you tell them, then?
12777	What do we really want with fortunes?
12777	What do we want such a thing as that for?
12777	What do you mean?
12777	What do you say, Hazelton?
12777	What do you smoke then?
12777	What do you think about it?
12777	What do you think about it?
12777	What do you think of the sky?
12777	What do you want to do that for?
12777	What do you want?
12777	What for? 12777 What for?"
12777	What for?
12777	What has a baby to do with a''new one''?
12777	What has been the trouble, doc?
12777	What is it?
12777	What kinds?
12777	What on earth are you talking about?
12777	What on earth is he doing, anyway?
12777	What on earth is the matter, mosquito?
12777	What shall we call the claim?
12777	What was it?
12777	What was the racket?
12777	What''ll the feller pay me in?
12777	What''s the game here, Tom?
12777	What''s the matter, boss?
12777	What''s the matter, youngster?
12777	What''s the matter?
12777	What''s the need of waiting?
12777	What''s the use of a strong young fellow like him dying?
12777	What''s this?
12777	What''s to be done?
12777	What''s your idea of an optimist, anyway?
12777	What? 12777 What?"
12777	What?
12777	What?
12777	When?
12777	Where are the rest of your men?
12777	Where are we going to get any?
12777	Where are you going to find any?
12777	Where are you going to set the stuff off?
12777	Where are you going, Tim?
12777	Where be you, Dolph?
12777	Where can we begin to look?
12777	Where did you get it?
12777	Where did you leave the little fellow, Jim?
12777	Where does it hurt you most, chum?
12777	Where is Pringle?
12777	Where is the stuff now?
12777	Where is your camp?
12777	Where on earth can Harry be?
12777	Where''s Harry?
12777	Who are you, anyway?
12777	Who are you?
12777	Who is he, and how did he become bald?
12777	Who''s going to prowl?
12777	Who''s having Fourth of July around here?
12777	Who''s that coming?
12777	Who''s the very smart man that''s looking after your friend?
12777	Whose boss?
12777	Why are you trying to sneak away before your work is finished?
12777	Why did n''t the law take up Gage''s case when your brother was killed?
12777	Why did n''t you call me before, Tom?
12777	Why did you ever take up smoking?
12777	Why did you fire on those men without provocation?
12777	Why do n''t you go up, with my message, Hunter?
12777	Why do n''t you look the stuff over?
12777	Why not?
12777	Why not?
12777	Why on earth are you leaving the camp at that fellow''s mercy?
12777	Why on earth did n''t you tell me that before?
12777	Why should we blow ourselves up? 12777 Why will you be so foolish--- so nervous?
12777	Why, Reade?
12777	Why, how does that happen?
12777	Why?
12777	Why?
12777	Why?
12777	Will you call me in an hour, if I lie down?
12777	Will you look after the wood, Harry?
12777	Will you people try to keep an eye over the claim while I''m gone?
12777	Wo n''t need to work much longer?
12777	Would fanning the crucibles with my hat do any good?
12777	Would seventy- five dollars a month for each of you be satisfactory?
12777	Yes; but-----"Are you so little of an engineer that you do n''t know a_ mine_ when you see one, Harry?
12777	Yes?
12777	Yes?
12777	You advise me to forget that he shot at me?
12777	You are?
12777	You began poisoning yourself at the age of thirteen, and you''ve lived a whole year? 12777 You do n''t believe Gage will try to attack us on the way?"
12777	You do n''t suppose it''s pneumonia?
12777	You got even by placing me under a great obligation?
12777	You got it from four men?
12777	You have n''t any doubts about getting the gold, have you?
12777	You have n''t found the claim yet, then?
12777	You have?
12777	You have?
12777	You heard what I said, did n''t you?
12777	You know where to find the corner of Palace Avenue and Mission Street?
12777	You must know something about ore and croppings, and the like, Jim? 12777 You said that before; but what''s up?"
12777	You said you''d pay me five dollars a month and find me in everything, did n''t you?
12777	You saw for yourself, did n''t you?
12777	You''ll call me in an hour?
12777	You''re an honest man, are n''t you, Jim?
12777	You''re feeling better, now, are n''t you?
12777	You''re going to stop him?
12777	You''re not going to bounce me, are you?
12777	You''re not threatening me with your pistol, are you?
12777	You''re obeying him by leaving the claim, are n''t you?
12777	Your wha- a- at?
12777	And did n''t he do it again this afternoon?"
12777	And say, will he hand me the lead out of an automatic gun?"
12777	As soon as Tom found a chance he asked Dr. Scott:"Will a little excitement of the happiest kind hurt Hazelton any?"
12777	But how about the assays for gold and silver?
12777	But say, how did that assay read?"
12777	But the enemy?"
12777	But, as I understand the affair, if your brother had n''t been carrying a pistol he would n''t have been killed?"
12777	But--- why, where is the child?"
12777	By the way, Jim, where is Alf?"
12777	CHAPTER VIII JIM FERRERS, PARTNER"You mean it, do you?"
12777	Can you pick up at least six real miners at Dugout City?"
12777	Conclusion CHAPTER I ALF AND HIS"MAKINGS OF MANHOOD""Say, got the makings?"
12777	Do I make myself plain?"
12777	Do n''t you know that?"
12777	Do n''t you see?"
12777	Do n''t you want to get into the real--- the big performances of our profession?"
12777	Do n''t you want to spell me a bit out there, Tom?
12777	Do you begin to see, Jim Ferrers, where you come in?
12777	Do you forget that he carries a rifle?"
12777	Do you know a man anywhere who''d use us more honestly than you would?"
12777	Do you know what really ails him?
12777	Do you think I''ve waited, Reade, all these years to find a partner like you, and then allow him to go off in a blizzard that would sure finish him?"
12777	Do you understand?"
12777	Dunlop?"
12777	Dunlop?"
12777	Find it all reg''lar, too, do n''t you?"
12777	Fool with Gage?"
12777	Harry, do n''t you long to do some of the big things that are done by engineers?
12777	Have you?"
12777	Hazelton?"
12777	How did it figger?"
12777	How do you do the trick?"
12777	How long have you been smoking, Drew?"
12777	How much money have we now, Tom?"
12777	How old do you take us to be?"
12777	I guess I''d better write down some of these instructions, had n''t I?"
12777	I suppose you would be willing to let this matter remain open for a few days?"
12777	I wonder what the trouble can be?"
12777	If you do n''t want us to cheer, then what shall we do?"
12777	In other words, why do you destroy your five senses with cigarettes in this fashion?"
12777	Is he out in this storm?"
12777	Is that all, Mr. Reade?
12777	Is the money that you may make out here worth all the risk?"
12777	It was Dolph Gage, or one of his rascals, was n''t it?"
12777	It was Reade''s turn to ask:"Why?"
12777	Jim, do you know anything about the use of the medicines in this chest?"
12777	Jim, this snow- crust will bear the weight of a pony, wo n''t it?"
12777	Jim, you''ve prospected a bit, have n''t you?"
12777	Manly?"
12777	Mr. Dunlop--- I believe that is your name, sir?"
12777	Now, what do you say?"
12777	Now, where did they take our tents and the other stuff?"
12777	Now, you must have noticed that most of the outcropping rock around here is of a very refractory kind?"
12777	Oh, why did n''t I hear about Walsh earlier?"
12777	Reade demanded in pretended surprise,"with nearly all the ground in Nevada at your disposal?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Rest?
12777	Say, friend, how did that assay come out?"
12777	See here--- Reade''s your name, is n''t it?"
12777	Shall we hustle after our property?"
12777	That''s it, it?"
12777	There are laws in this state, are n''t there?"
12777	Though the men worked an hour overtime they did not succeed in sending up any more ore."Just one pocket?"
12777	To stand guard?"
12777	Tom glanced at his chum, then answered, slowly:"I''m sorry, Mr. Dunlop, sorry indeed, if-----""What are you trying to say?"
12777	Too cold out there?"
12777	Understand?"
12777	Want another pellet?"
12777	We''ll-----""Neighbors?"
12777	What are we going to do with it--- if we get it?"
12777	What are you talking about, Reade?
12777	What could you do to save me if I lost my hold and fell?"
12777	What did you do for the four men?"
12777	What do you say, Jim?"
12777	What do you want anyway?"
12777	What''ll they do to me now, I wonder?"
12777	What''s in there?"
12777	What''s the matter?
12777	Where are our assistant engineers--- where our draftsmen?
12777	Where are our foremen that we could summon to great undertakings?
12777	Where did you get it?"
12777	Where do you expect to wind up with your''makings''and your cigarettes?"
12777	Where is the costly equipment that we would need as a firm of really great engineers?
12777	Where''s your claim?"
12777	Why ca n''t I sleep on the other cot in this tent?"
12777	Why did the men chase you out of their shack?"
12777	Why not?"
12777	Why?"
12777	Will you have breakfast with us, sir?"
12777	Will you kindly introduce your friends?"
12777	Wo n''t it give you more satisfaction to feel that you''ve put Gage day for his bread and water?
12777	Yes, it would be like you to put me into danger and to leave yourself out of it, would n''t it?"
12777	Yet have you men any idea a how little chance we may have of striking that vein?
12777	You know the map of Dugout, do n''t you?"
12777	You will probably motor back to Dugout tomorrow morning, wo n''t you?"
12777	You''ve got to stop it after this; do you understand?"
12777	_ You_ ask me to do it, sir?
12778	A caravan?
12778	A letter?
12778	A map of your possessions only, Don Luis?
12778	A romance? 12778 A week?
12778	A year ago Alf Drew would have felt at home in this cigarette- puffing, sallow- faced lot, would n''t be?
12778	A_ medico_?
12778	Abandoned?
12778	Ah, so you are afraid?
12778	Am I not commanded to keep with you everywhere, and serve you in all things?
12778	Am I not paying you?
12778	Am I still the servant of the American gentlemen, Don Luis?
12778	And how long would we be held_ incommunicado_?
12778	And is your mine a profitable one?
12778	And now what can I do for you,_ caballeros_?
12778	And perhaps Don Luis may be behind the rascal, urging him on and offering to protect him from the law? 12778 And run into Gato?"
12778	And then-- what?
12778	And then?
12778	And this estate was part of the mine property?
12778	And what can he be doing in this out of the way part of the world?
12778	And what if I had so intended?
12778	And what is to become of me,_ caballeros_?
12778	And where''s Nicolas, all this time?
12778	And who are you?
12778	And why not,_ caballeros_?
12778	And you are sure you can find the scoundrel?
12778	And you have the courage to try to hand a note to Gato?
12778	And you will sign the new report-- when?
12778	And your friend, who does not appear here in person, is Senor Hazelton? 12778 And, if the engineers were dishonest the capitalists would lose their money, would n''t they?"
12778	And, if you ca n''t arrange it--?
12778	Any one calling me?
12778	Anything in that lot that''s all ready to be eaten without fussy preparation, Nicolas?
12778	Are not his excellency, the governor, and I, the best of friends? 12778 Are these your men?"
12778	Are they just walking about, aimlessly? 12778 Are they, in the end, going to trick me, Carlos?"
12778	Are we going to the mine this morning, Don Luis?
12778	Are we to kill the Americanos from ambush?
12778	Are you gentlemen, then, mine owners as well as mine experts?
12778	Are you going to stay, Tom, and have any further talk with this thief?
12778	Are you going to take us to see the other mines?
12778	Breaking a contract?
12778	Business?
12778	But Don Luis will be angry, in any case, if you injure his engineers, wo n''t he?
12778	But did you see his other men at any time in the night?
12778	But does n''t the governor of Bonista ever hear of the disappearances?
12778	But even suppose that these Gringos have absurdly fanciful ideas of honor? 12778 But have you gone as much as a whole week drilling and blasting through blank rock?"
12778	But how?
12778	But what about saving the victim of the intended swindle?
12778	But what are you doing here?
12778	But what''s the matter?
12778	But why do you put so much enthusiasm into the report, Don Luis, when the mine is not for sale and is not to be run as a stock company property?
12778	But why not?
12778	But why should Don Luis want to salt his own mine?
12778	But will that be suitable to go to breakfast in?
12778	But you believe that you will be ready to meet my views?
12778	But you do not yet know?
12778	Butter,_ caballero_? 12778 By comparison it would make the mines in the United States look poor, would it not?"
12778	Ca n''t you guess?
12778	Can Gato shoot any better than he fights?
12778	Can I serve you further, now,_ caballeros_inquired Nicolas, with great respect,"or shall I bring you the remainder of your breakfast?"
12778	Can Nicolas have fallen into any harm?
12778	Can it be that the people in Bonista do their work at night?
12778	Can you beat it?
12778	Could I?
12778	Did Don Luis send you after us, Nicolas?
12778	Did I not suggest that these Gringos would not be easily controlled?
12778	Did any one at the house send you?
12778	Did you not see some of the problems before you, while we were going through the mine?
12778	Did you notice how much rich ore there was in each tunnel to- day? 12778 Displeased?
12778	Do n''t capitalists usually invest large sums on a favorable report from engineers?
12778	Do n''t you really know, Reade, what the limits of the property are?
12778	Do the other mines pay as well as_ El Sombrero_?
12778	Do you agree with your associate, Hazelton?
12778	Do you call this last work well done?
12778	Do you call yourself a brave man, to fight an unarmed foe like this?
12778	Do you care to go, Senor Tomaso?
12778	Do you figure out anything concerning him?
12778	Do you hear the Gringo, my good Carlos?
12778	Do you imagine that Montez will ever allow us to get face to face with the man who''s to be fleeced?
12778	Do you intend starting now, senor?
12778	Do you know how to use this, senor?
12778	Do you mean to tell me,demanded Tom, astonished,"that you could go openly and safely to Gato?"
12778	Do you not understand? 12778 Do you really wish to send Gato a letter?"
12778	Do you think you could stand life with us, in the United States?
12778	Do you want us to keep our hands up forever?
12778	Do you wish anything,_ caballero_?
12778	Do you wish speed, excellency?
12778	Does Don Luis intend to have us arrested, after all, and sent to prison to be held_ incommunicado_, and so make sure of keeping us out of the way?
12778	Does Don Luis own this side of Mexico, or this wing of the Mexican Army?
12778	Does it take much of your time, may I ask?
12778	Does what take much of my time?
12778	Don Luis, it will be enough if we give you our answer by the morning of day after to- morrow? 12778 Don Luis?"
12778	Eggs?
12778	Eh?
12778	Eh?
12778	Excellency, we shall hope to have some eggs by to- morrow,"Harry, you idiot, why did n''t you ask for mince pie and doughnuts, too?
12778	For me? 12778 For what is the use of being strong if I could not tramp after more wood to- morrow?"
12778	From that what would you infer?
12778	Gato will not attempt to give us any orders, of course?
12778	Gato, just what do you mean by your remark?
12778	Go away and leave you here?
12778	Going afield, sir?
12778	Greaser?
12778	Harry, is n''t it just as great an ambition to be an honest engineer as it is to be a highly capable one?
12778	Harry, will you keep behind our guest of the evening and spur him on if he shows signs of lagging?
12778	Has Don Luis come down yet?
12778	Has Don Luis gone to the mine?
12778	Has he gotten wind of the fact that we have a stranger here? 12778 Have you any further questions that you wish to ask me at present?"
12778	Have you any record of the number of times that you have encountered the blank rock, and the number of feet in thickness of the wall in each case?
12778	Have you sold your mine?
12778	Have you too little courage to answer me?
12778	Have you writing materials?
12778	He will, oh?
12778	He''s stringing Don Luis, of course, but to what end?
12778	Here at your table?
12778	Here, so close to where the troops might pick us up?
12778	How about a steak, Tom?
12778	How can I know so soon, senor?
12778	How could he be dangerous when you had his weapon?
12778	How could that be?
12778	How could the American minister learn what was going on in this country? 12778 How dare you, senor?"
12778	How do you feel, now?
12778	How does it seem to be a rascal, Tom?
12778	How far did we go, Tom?
12778	How is one to get back the money that he has put into a gold mine?
12778	How long have these streaks of blank rock been?
12778	How long?
12778	How many better mines than_ El Sombrero_ have you seen?
12778	How often has it happened?
12778	How on earth did you get here?
12778	How runs the ore this morning?
12778	How should I know?
12778	How so?
12778	How? 12778 How?"
12778	How?
12778	How?
12778	I signaled you, Don Luis, to inquire if Ellsworth and myself might go on your drive with you?
12778	I wonder how many people Nicolas is serving this morning?
12778	I wonder if there is any treachery in this?
12778	Impossible? 12778 In the state of Bonista especially?"
12778	In trouble? 12778 In what direction is the smelter?"
12778	Is Don Luis Montez of your number?
12778	Is Dr. Tisco around?
12778	Is he always as late as this?
12778	Is it all that a careful investor would want?
12778	Is it ready?
12778	Is it suspicious for a foreigner to be walking about in Mexico?
12778	Is that the truth?
12778	Is the stranger back in your tent, Nicolas?
12778	Is there no place where you can buy food for us?
12778	Is this ore as good as you usually find in this vein?
12778	Is this what you call a run of poor luck?
12778	Is your answer ready?
12778	It seems strange, does n''t it,asked Harry,"that such a fine girl can possibly be Don Luis''s daughter?"
12778	It wo n''t get your relative into any trouble, will it, Nicolas?
12778	It would be hard to, would n''t it?
12778	It_ is_ a fine mine, is n''t it, Senor Tomaso?
12778	Kill a poor_ peon_?
12778	Let right triumph, after we''re buried,continued Harry,"and what good would it do us?"
12778	May I ask if_ El Padre_ is one of your properties, Don Luis?
12778	Meaning our sick man?
12778	Mexico is not often at war, is she?
12778	Mr. Haynes,Tom asked, anxiously, one day,"would you have done the same as we did, had you been in our place?"
12778	My turn for what, senor?
12778	Nevertheless, to please me, will you put this report into your own English?
12778	Nicolas, can you spare wood enough to start a little campfire?
12778	Nicolas,asked Tom, with sudden inspiration,"is there any store hereabouts?
12778	No; we simply ca n''t and wo n''t remain here unless-- well, unless--"What are you trying to say, senor?
12778	No; why should I want it when I own_ El Sombrero_?
12778	No?
12778	Not connected?
12778	Nothing else?
12778	Now, what part is the girl to play here?
12778	Now, what?
12778	Now, who said anything about that?
12778	Now, why on earth did you talk to Don Luis in that fashion?
12778	Now, will you set the shovelers at work moving this stuff back a little way? 12778 Odd, is n''t it, Tom?"
12778	Of what?
12778	Oh, Gato? 12778 Oh, how should I know?
12778	Oh, really the manager of the mine, then?
12778	Oh, you will eh?
12778	Oh? 12778 Perhaps the senor will explain?"
12778	Put off breakfast until to- morrow?
12778	Refuse?
12778	See here, you Nicolas,remarked Tom, protestingly,"why on earth did n''t you stay put?
12778	Senor, are you making fun of me?
12778	Senor,he asked,"you would not betray me?"
12778	Senor-- Haynes?
12778	Sergeant, may I send a telegram from here?
12778	Sha n''t we all go down?
12778	Sir,demanded Mr. Haynes, bluntly,"is the mine a valuable one, or is it a swindle?"
12778	So Don Luis has brought you here to show whether you are any good?
12778	Suspicion of what?
12778	That sometimes happens in_ El Sombrero_,Don Luis replied, smoothly,"How often has it happened?"
12778	That-- that-- game?
12778	The land of golden eggs?
12778	The limits?
12778	Then of what does the breakfast here usually consist?
12778	Then possibly you have overlooked building any dungeons under the house? 12778 Then what are you doing here, if you bring us no news?"
12778	Then what are you talking about?
12778	Then what do you think of the Gringo pair, my good Carlos?
12778	Then who is_ he_?
12778	Then why are we waiting here?
12778	Then why do you two not sleep for a while?
12778	Then why the soldier?
12778	Then you believe that Gato plans something diabolical, just because I walloped him in a fair fight-- or in a fight where the odds were against me?
12778	Then you believe that_ El Sombrero_ will not turn out much more profitable ore?
12778	Then you know Don Luis?
12778	Then you were delighted with the mine?
12778	Then_ El Sombrero_ Mine is worthless?
12778	These are your American visitors?
12778	This game-- interests you?
12778	This will be enough for one meal,_ caballeros_?
12778	Tom Reade, are you going crazy?
12778	Tom, what do you say? 12778 Walking?"
12778	Well,_ caballeros_, does it need much discussion to enable you to accept my kindness?
12778	What ails the stuff?
12778	What ails this lot of ore?
12778	What ails you? 12778 What are you going to do now?"
12778	What could he want of us that is crooked?
12778	What did I say to you, Don Luis?
12778	What did I say?
12778	What did you think of the young lady, Tom?
12778	What do you make of it?
12778	What do you mean, Sergeant?
12778	What do you mean?
12778	What do you really think of this mine, Reade?
12778	What do you think?
12778	What does Don Luis, then, usually order?
12778	What does he eat after that?
12778	What does he want us for, then? 12778 What does this mean, Reade?"
12778	What have you been doing?
12778	What if he does?
12778	What is he doing around here?
12778	What is it that you have to say?
12778	What is it?
12778	What is this, Senor Reade?
12778	What on earth are the Gringos doing?
12778	What on earth is Tom driving at?
12778	What on earth will Don Luis think of us?
12778	What shall we wear, Tom?
12778	What will be the outcome of this adventure, under the law?
12778	What''s the game, anyway?
12778	What''s the use of the trunks, anyway?
12778	What''s up?
12778	When do you expect your purchasers?
12778	When will you be ready to turn the money over, gentlemen?
12778	Where is Senor Reade?
12778	Where is the next best mine around here?
12778	Where is_ El Padre_( the Priest) located?
12778	Where''s the butter, Nicolas?
12778	Where?
12778	Who are you, senor?
12778	Who can say?
12778	Who can say?
12778	Who on earth can he be?
12778	Who, then?
12778	Who?
12778	Why did you tell him not to mind the butter?
12778	Why do n''t you tell your bandit friends that you are angry because of the trouncing I gave you before a lot of men? 12778 Why have they stopped me?"
12778	Why not ask them here, Senor Tomaso?
12778	Why not?
12778	Why should I concern myself with the business that belongs to an hidalgo like Don Luis?
12778	Why should I? 12778 Why should he bring ore from another mine to_ El Sombrero_?"
12778	Why should you need to escape, if you are honest men, engaged in honest business?
12778	Why was it necessary to your safety, senor, since you had the fellow''s rifle and his ammunition? 12778 Why was it necessary?"
12778	Why, Lieutenant, do you feel that we should have turned a deadly enemy loose?
12778	Why, it is n''t a felony to try to get out of Mexico, is it?
12778	Why, your news refers to nothing more than a wreck on your Arizona railway system, does n''t it?
12778	Why? 12778 Why?"
12778	Why?
12778	Will it be showing sufficient courtesy to our host? 12778 Will the senor pardon me for saying,"ventured the telegrapher,"that this message reads much as though yourself and a friend are trying to escape?"
12778	Will the_ caballeros_ have some more chocolate?
12778	Will you be good enough to explain?
12778	Will you be good enough to have one of your servants take my horse?
12778	Will you be seated,_ caballeros_?
12778	Will you furnish us with transportation from here?
12778	Will you help to hide me here, and then go away and be silent?
12778	Wo n''t you come outside,suggested Tom,"and tell me the object of your call this evening?
12778	Worse?
12778	Would I?
12778	Yes-- but what''s the use?
12778	Yes?
12778	Yet I wonder if our young engineer does not half suspect that Don Luis has no man at the other end of the wire?
12778	Yet what are we doing here?
12778	You agree with that statement, do you, Hazelton?
12778	You are Senor Reade, are you not?
12778	You are confident of that, Reade?
12778	You are the expert here at the mine?
12778	You are the surgeon at the mine?
12778	You did not know this before?
12778	You didn''t-- you did n''t knife the scoundrel?
12778	You do n''t have much occupation at that game, do you, senor?
12778	You have seen my new engineers, Carlos?
12778	You mean to Don Luis?
12778	You will come with us, Carlos?
12778	You will oblige me by coming back to the house, wo n''t you, Don Luis?
12778	You will smoke, gentlemen?
12778	You will take one last ride with me, will you not? 12778 You will want the big ledger for facts?"
12778	You wish me to leave you alone, now?
12778	You wish to linger?
12778	You, too, have been walking then, Senor Hazelton?
12778	You-- go to Gato?
12778	You?
12778	You?
12778	You?
12778	_ Caballeros_,he inquired, suddenly,"what did you think of_ El Sombrero_?"
12778	_ Quien sabe_?
12778	Am I not paying you?"
12778	Am I right, Harry?"
12778	And did you notice, too, that when blasts were made with us looking on, no ore worthy of the name was dug loose?
12778	And now, Senores Reade and Hazelton, shall we resume our interrupted ride in the car?"
12778	And suppose the daughter should be at table?"
12778	And what, in the end, is to be the fate of poor little Nicolas?
12778	Any place where food can be purchased?"
12778	Are they such fools as to refuse me when they find that I hold their lives in the palm of my hand?"
12778	Besides, what show would a stranger have in the courts in this part of Mexico?
12778	But what will be the use-- provided they help you to get the American money into your hands?
12778	But why do you ask all this, Senor Tomaso?"
12778	But you remember the day well enough, Harry?"
12778	But you, Senor Tomaso, would you not like to step inside and lie down for a while?"
12778	But, in the meantime, now that we are friends and really partners-- will you not come over and share the comforts of my poor home while we wait?"
12778	By"blank rock"Tom meant rock that did not contain a promising or paying amount of metal in the ore."What it means?"
12778	CHAPTER VII DON LUIS''S ENGINEERING PROBLEM"Gato?"
12778	CHAPTER X THE SPIRIT OF A TRUE ENGINEER"Do you know, Don Luis,"drawled Tom,"that you have one fine quality?"
12778	CHAPTER XVIII CRAFT-- OR SURRENDER?
12778	Can it be that you mean it?"
12778	Can we promise you more?"
12778	Could it be that this hard, cruel man had the right to address her in endearing terms?
12778	Craft-- Or Surrender?
12778	Did they not realize that the nearest railway train was seventy miles away?
12778	Do not all men hereabouts obey my orders?
12778	Do you comprehend?"
12778	Do you see the point that I am raising?"
12778	Do you think you can defy me-- that here, on my own estates, you can slap me in the face and ride away with laughter?"
12778	Do you want to go with me?"
12778	Does Don Luis know all about the man?
12778	Does n''t that look as though he wanted to sell?
12778	Hardly worthy of the name of tamping, is it?"
12778	Harry, do you remember the day that Nicolas was gone so long that you were uneasy about him?
12778	Harry, we''re pining for the good old U.S., are n''t we?"
12778	Has it escaped you, Don Luis, that some of these obstinate, mule- headed Gringos are guilty of an especial form of ingratitude which they term honor?"
12778	Have we been defrauded in any way?"
12778	He is ill, then?"
12778	He, of a proud hidalgo family, a vile assassin, in thought at least?"
12778	How do I know that you are not breaking a contract?"
12778	How do I know that you have any right to leave Mexico?
12778	How long would it have taken Gato to find his men and bring them down upon us-- three or four guns against one?"
12778	How many weapons have they, and of what kind?"
12778	If you do not feel like accepting my opinion of you, then will you meet me and explain your conduct as one real man talks with another?
12778	In the meantime, since we can not live here, what do you expect us to do?"
12778	Is Gato on the warpath for us?"
12778	Is he a knave, or only a harmless braggart?
12778	Is he a man against whom one should be seriously on his guard?
12778	Is he playing on my nerves at this moment?"
12778	Is there a revolution, then, in the state of Bonista?"
12778	Let me see; at what value do you hold it?"
12778	May I ask you what this means?"
12778	My Gringo wild- cat is much tamer, is n''t he?"
12778	Now, are you not satisfied that I have dealt fairly with you?"
12778	Now, honestly, is n''t all that ambition enough to hold us for a few weeks?"
12778	Now-- are you listening?"
12778	Only he?"
12778	Shall we bring him here and look after him?"
12778	Shall we start along?"
12778	So he exclaimed, aloud:"Fifty thousand dollars a year, Don Luis?
12778	So this fellow is in irons?"
12778	So?
12778	Suppose,_ caballeros_, that we move into the office?"
12778	Surely, you do n''t intend to shoulder these trunks to the railway station-- seventy miles away?"
12778	The Gringos refuse me-- betray me?
12778	Then inquired,"What are we going to do now?"
12778	Then your master eats in his own room?"
12778	There is one within twenty miles, is there not?"
12778	Therefore, will you not be so good as to sign the report?"
12778	They have sampled your power,""Yet why do you object, Carlos, to having the Gringo pair put out of the way?"
12778	Think you any judge would dare sign a process against me, and send_ peon_ officers of the law to interfere with me?
12778	This is yours, is it not?"
12778	Tom repeated what he had written, then asking:"Do you think, Nicolas, that it will be safe for you to take this to Pedro Gato?"
12778	Tom, do you believe that you could possibly have been deceived as to the valued of this mining property?"
12778	Was he not?"
12778	We know how to arrange that, eh, my staunch Carlos?"
12778	What I meant to say was not''war lord,''but-- but--""Over lord?"
12778	What do you say, Harry?
12778	What do you say, my boy?"
12778	What do you think about that, Nicolas?"
12778	What does it matter, to a man who owns_ El Sombrero_?"
12778	What will Don Luis think of us?
12778	When do you want to go after him?"
12778	When shall we go to the mine?"
12778	Where are you taking us?"
12778	Where can he be?"
12778	Who can escape the net that I am able to spread in these mountains?
12778	Who can guess?"
12778	Who goes there?)
12778	Why not?
12778	Why not?"
12778	Why?"
12778	Will you do me the favor of accepting this as a remembrance?
12778	Will you give me your word to remain here until I return?"
12778	Will you kindly tell the foreman so, Don Luis?"
12778	Will you trust me to serve you, senor?"
12778	Will_ el gobernador_ ask any awkward questions if two Gringos should stroll through these mountains and never be heard from again?
12778	Wo n''t Don Luis merely have us assassinated in the end, if we go on proving stubborn?"
12778	Would he give heed to rumors against me, brought by evil- tongued men?
12778	Would our fate ever reach the outside world?"
12778	You have been traveling for some time?"
12778	You?
33306	''We''?
33306	A closed door? 33306 A night guard?"
33306	Also, you were wearing it that other night, when you heaved a stone down on my office roof?
33306	Am I not your friend, too?
33306	And the Carson business: you were mixed up in that, too?
33306	And the distance to Jack''s Cabin?
33306	And the electric signal service system in the upper canyon is a part of the defence for the mine?
33306	And the family is Southern-- from what section?
33306	And you analysed it?
33306	And you have never sought for an explanation?--beyond the one which would stamp him as the vilest, the most inhuman of criminals?
33306	And you know who did it?
33306	And you say that Mr. Pelham knows this?
33306	And you say that the hoodoo has n''t got around to using high explosives yet, eh? 33306 And you think one of the stone- cutters went down from the camp to give Hoskins a jolt?"
33306	And you were wearing that rain- coat when you did it?
33306	Anybody I know?
33306	Anybody been over to- day?
33306	Are they frequent in the head basin of the Boiling Water?
33306	Are you still determined not to let me efface it for you?
33306	Are you sure of that, Aunt June?
33306	Are you? 33306 Around the office, you say?"
33306	At what time in that day?
33306	Beckwith with his game- bag?
33306	Been bearding the lion in his den, have you?
33306	Blood?
33306	Bromley? 33306 But first let me ask you, Bromley: What sort of a rifle marksman was Sanderson?"
33306	But to- day?
33306	But why should two, or a dozen of them, fire on us in the dark? 33306 Ca n''t the old fellow be conciliated in some way?"
33306	Ca n''t you see what would happen-- what is likely to happen if Mr. Wingfield sees fit to make literary material out of all these mysteries?
33306	Carload o''hosses?
33306	Cloud- bursts?
33306	Could n''t he swim?
33306	Did I not? 33306 Did he come here horseback?"
33306	Did n''t I tell you he is going to be_ my_ guest?
33306	Did n''t I? 33306 Did n''t you know it?"
33306	Did you kill Macpherson?--as well as Braithwaite and Sanderson?
33306	Did you or Mr. Bromley notice what bend o''the river that curve is at?
33306	Did you see them do it?
33306	Do n''t like the looks of it, do you?
33306	Do n''t need a chief, do you?
33306	Do n''t we always say that when the trouble is personal?
33306	Do you blame me, Loudon?
33306	Do you dare to repeat those stories to me?
33306	Do you expect me to tell you about it here and now?--with Mr. Wingfield sitting just three seats back of me, on the right?
33306	Do you happen to know where she is now?
33306	Do you know what you have done? 33306 Do you never change your plans suddenly, Mr. Ballard?
33306	Do you think I''m going to lie down and let these cattle- punchers ride rough- shod over me and the company I represent? 33306 Do you want to know how much I trust you?
33306	Elsa, dearest, can you look me in the eyes and tell me that you do not love_ me_?
33306	Father, are you asleep?
33306	For me? 33306 For purely commercial reasons, of course?
33306	Getting on your nerves, Jerry?
33306	Gold?
33306	Good load to- night, John?
33306	Had n''t you heard it? 33306 Has any one told you that Mr. Wingfield is making the studies for a new play?"
33306	Has nobody ever seen the inside of this Golconda of a mine?
33306	Have you?
33306	He was willing?
33306	Horse- play, is it?
33306	How about the cow- puncher-- Grigsby-- who brought my horse over and got my bag?
33306	How about your friend?
33306	How are you coming on with the work, Loudon?
33306	How are you getting on?
33306	How can the genial, kindly, magnanimous man we know, or think we know, be such a fiend incarnate?
33306	How can you question it?
33306	How could she be runnin''any way but forrards?
33306	How could there be?
33306	How could you know it? 33306 How could you reason your way around to that?"
33306	How did they manage to move the sick man?
33306	How do you know?
33306	How does he get the water up there to make all that greenery?
33306	How else would I get there?
33306	How is the bullet- gouge by this time?
33306	How long does it take you to really get acquainted with people?
33306	How long had your train been broken in two before the two sections came in collision?
33306	How long have you known this?
33306	How many men do you suppose Carson can muster for this cattle round- up?
33306	How much have you got of this?
33306	How?
33306	How?
33306	I suppose I do n''t need to ask if you can ride a range pony?
33306	I''m not vindictive: why should I be?
33306	I? 33306 If you did n''t break in two, what did happen?"
33306	If you were called in as an expert, what would you make of that?
33306	In the courts, you mean?
33306	Is Mr. Bromley to marry your widow? 33306 Is Mr. Bromley your boss?"
33306	Is he badly hurt?
33306	Is he truly Jack Forsyth''s successor?
33306	Is it always going to be''some time''? 33306 Is it going to bump those fellows off of our trail?"
33306	Is it loaded?
33306	Is that all?
33306	Is there anybody in your camp who knows the trail?
33306	Is your name Manuel?
33306	It was up to me, was n''t it, Colonel Craigmiles?
33306	It''s pretty bad, is n''t it?
33306	Let me have a look at it, will you?
33306	Looking for trouble with Manuel, you would say?
33306	Loudon, has it ever occurred to you that the colonel''s mine play is a very large- sized trump card? 33306 Loudon, what manner of man is this Colonel Craigmiles?"
33306	Meaning that I have found the man who is responsible for all these desperate and deadly doings? 33306 Meaning that I might let you go and dress for dinner?
33306	Meaning that this cow- boy cattle- thief tangle in the lower valley has made you_ persona non grata_ at Castle''Cadia? 33306 Meaning the broken formations?"
33306	More accidents?
33306	No? 33306 No?
33306	Not mention it?--to Bromley? 33306 Now, then, I want to know where you got that sample, Breckenridge?"
33306	Of what?
33306	Oh, I say, Loudon; has that canyon path been dug out again?--where the slide was?
33306	Oh; so there_ was_ a quarrel? 33306 On general principles?"
33306	Others?
33306	Out of Castle''Cadia? 33306 Perhaps you have met Miss-- er-- the daughter who comes and goes?"
33306	Really?
33306	Say, Mr. Ballard; what do you do when a horse bucks under you?
33306	Say; how many of you did it take to run this here little bluff on us?
33306	So it was you who hit Bromley on the head and knocked him into the canyon?
33306	Somebody''s private hotel?
33306	Strike work, you mean?
33306	Summing it all up, what is your conclusion, Wingfield? 33306 That is a very natural question; but does n''t it strike you, Mr. Ballard, that this is hardly the time or place to go into it?"
33306	That was Braithwaite''s notion, I suppose?
33306	That was almost tragic, was n''t it?
33306	That you, Loudon?
33306	The danger is immediate, then?
33306	The motive?
33306	The what?
33306	Then Billy Sanderson took it-- you remember Billy, in my year? 33306 Then Pelham and his people were interlopers?"
33306	Then you did n''t mean what you were saying?
33306	Then you doubtless know who is responsible for all the terrible happenings; the-- the_ crimes_?
33306	Then you entirely disregard the little type- written note?
33306	There is no connection between the two-- in your mind?
33306	There was no one hurt? 33306 There were witnesses, you say?
33306	There''s hope f''r the little man, Misther Ballard?
33306	They have left you alone?
33306	Think so? 33306 This is Mr. Ballard, I believe?"
33306	To get ahead of us, you mean?
33306	To- night?
33306	To-- to Wingfield?
33306	Very well.... Jerry, what we are talking about now is strictly between gentlemen: do you understand?
33306	Want me to come with it?
33306	Was that all?
33306	Was that before or after the opening of your father''s mine over yonder?
33306	Watch the dam?
33306	Well, what do you think now, Breckenridge?
33306	Well?
33306	Well?
33306	Well?
33306	Well?
33306	Were you near enough to identify the man if-- if you should see him again?
33306	What am I to look for?
33306	What are you going to do about it, Mr. Wingfield? 33306 What are you two young people plotting about over there?"
33306	What are your means of communication with the towns in the Gunnison valley?
33306	What do you believe?
33306	What do you know about it, Gardiner? 33306 What do you know about such things?"
33306	What do you know about the colonel''s house- hold, Loudon?
33306	What do you make of it, Loudon?--what does it mean?
33306	What do you suppose Mr. Pelham will say when he hears that you have really made love to the cow- punching princess?
33306	What does Hoskins say? 33306 What has happened?"
33306	What have you been doing all these months that you have n''t dug it out for yourselves?
33306	What is finer than true friendship?
33306	What is it, Bourke?
33306	What is it, Bourke?
33306	What is it, child? 33306 What is it, old boy?"
33306	What is it? 33306 What is the Mexican doing here?"
33306	What shall I do with it?
33306	What station was that we just passed?
33306	What was it?
33306	What was that?
33306	What was the story?
33306	What will you do?
33306	What would you do, O wise virgin of the market- place?
33306	What you did n''t do to Carson and his gang was good and plenty, was n''t it, Breckenridge?
33306	What''s that?
33306	What''s wanted?
33306	What''s your notion, Loudon?
33306	What? 33306 Where is he?"
33306	Where? 33306 Whereabouts does this here back trail end up-- for us easy- marks, Cap''n Ballard?"
33306	Whereabouts is your quarry?
33306	Which is another way of saying that we have bored you until you are sleepy?
33306	Which means that you''re not going to stay here and drive the stone and concrete gangs yourself?
33306	Which way did the Mexican go?
33306	Which way was she running when you jumped, John?--forward or backward?
33306	Who is this Manuel?
33306	Who is your father?
33306	Who was the third?
33306	Whose guest is he? 33306 Why are you waiting?
33306	Why do n''t you take a start and grow some?
33306	Why not?
33306	Why should n''t I tell you all of it?
33306	Why should n''t the colonel want to be present at his own funeral? 33306 Why?"
33306	Will you do now what I begged you to do at first?--throw up this cursed job and go away?
33306	Will you help me tie it up?
33306	Will you so regard us?
33306	Will youh shot- up arm sanction a day''s travel, Mistuh Ballard?
33306	Wo n''t I?
33306	Wonder if I c''d knock a two- bagger with that hat o''his''n without mussin''his hair?
33306	Would a hungry little dog eat his supper, Mr. Ballard? 33306 Yes; how_ do_ you know?"
33306	Yet you have often thought of Braithwaite''s drowning, when you have been rounding that particular curve? 33306 You are come to take poor Mr. Macpherson''s place?"
33306	You are nearly through?
33306	You are not going to keep Mr. Bromley at the camp, are you? 33306 You are not leaving?"
33306	You are trying to give it to me, are n''t you?
33306	You are waiting to see me?
33306	You brought Miss Craigmiles here? 33306 You did keep it?"
33306	You found my note last evening-- when you were returning with Sheriff Beckwith?
33306	You give- a the h- order in this valley, señor?
33306	You have heard?
33306	You have n''t seen young Carson in the last hour or so, have you, Patsy?
33306	You still believe there is no hope of a compromise?
33306	You stumbled?
33306	You think your father will win his law- suit and so break the market?
33306	You wo n''t tell me that you are in love with Wingfield?
33306	You''ll be ready to quit for the day when we get in, wo n''t you?
33306	You''ll come up and see me?
33306	You''ll go?
33306	You''re forgetting Miss Elsa''s fishing party to the upper canyon, are n''t you? 33306 You''ve been in the country house, then?"
33306	You''ve seen something?
33306	You-- you do n''t believe it? 33306 Your deductions, Professor?"
33306	_ You said that to Dosia?_There was something like suppressed horror in the low- spoken query.
33306	*****"Are you quite sure it was n''t all a frightful dream?"
33306	All strangers, so far?"
33306	All the same, if it is not her father she is trying to shield, who, in the name of all that is good, can it be?
33306	All this is very wearisome to you, is n''t it?"
33306	Am I making it cleah to you, Mistuh Ballard?"
33306	Am I making it sufficiently plain?"
33306	Am I right?"
33306	Am I safe in assuming so much?"
33306	Am I still cleah?"
33306	Am I still in time to be in at the death?"
33306	And I have?"
33306	And did it have any connection with that phrase in President Pelham''s wire:"We need a fighting man"?
33306	And how about that arm?
33306	And may I call it my discovery?"
33306	And the shots?"
33306	And then to Blacklock:"Are you in it, too, Jerry?"
33306	And then to his hostess:"Are you willing, Miss Craigmiles?"
33306	And then, with a note of constraint in her voice that was quite new to him:"You are not obliged to go back to Elbow Canyon to- night, are you?
33306	And you are Colonel Craigmiles?"
33306	And, as the company''s chief engineer, you could doubtless get in on the''ground floor''that Mr. Pelham is always talking about, could n''t you?"
33306	And, by the way, that reminds me: neither of you two youngsters is responsible for the foundations of that dam; is n''t that the fact?"
33306	Are n''t you delighted to see us?
33306	Are the orders other for me?"
33306	Are there any of youh ditch camps at present in the riveh valley below heah?"
33306	Are you listening?"
33306	Are you obliged to go back to your camp to- night?"
33306	Are you picketed?"
33306	Are you sure there was no one hurt?"
33306	Ballard?"
33306	Ballard?"
33306	Ballard?"
33306	Ballard?"
33306	Ballard?"
33306	Ballard?"
33306	Ballard?--if a man might be asking?"
33306	Blacklock, here, has seen this woman; but I''d like to ask if either of you two have?"
33306	Bromley?"
33306	Bromley?"
33306	But what do you know about it?--if I may venture to ask?"
33306	But what was the mystery hinted at in Lassley''s telegram?
33306	But would the contractor''s men consent to fight the colonel''s battle?
33306	But you''ll be lenient with us, wo n''t you?
33306	By the way, have there been any more visitations since I went out on the line last Tuesday?"
33306	By the way, this is the room, is n''t it?
33306	By the way, what was the matter with him while we were eating breakfast?
33306	Can you do it?"
33306	Could there be anything more than coincidence in these fatalities?"
33306	D''ye see?"
33306	Did n''t I hear Mr. Pelham say that the watchword-- your watchword-- was to be''drive,''for every man, minute, and dollar there was in it?"
33306	Did n''t Mr. Lassley telegraph you not to go to Arcadia?"
33306	Did n''t you find him all the things I said he was-- and then some?"
33306	Did n''t you say something about being hopeful because I was aware of the existence of an America west of the Alleghanies?"
33306	Did some one tell me it was a fever?"
33306	Did you come aboard with that party at Omaha?"
33306	Did you embroider it for her?
33306	Did you have a hand in that?"
33306	Did you hear the sick baby?"
33306	Do I bring the gun here?"
33306	Do I know any of your sight- seers, besides Mrs. Van Bryck?"
33306	Do I make myself cleah?"
33306	Do n''t you believe it?"
33306	Do n''t you find it so?"
33306	Do n''t you see?"
33306	Do we hike out now?--right away?"
33306	Do you blame him so very much?"
33306	Do you know a little sand creek in the hogback called Dry Valley?"
33306	Do you know who made the attempt?"
33306	Do you see that black streak out there on the shale, just about at the path level?
33306	Do you think Mr. Wingfield really cares anything for me?
33306	Do you-- do you know how your father died, Breckenridge?"
33306	Does n''t he ever play for you?"
33306	Does none of these things move you?"
33306	Does that clear another of the horizons for you?"
33306	Does that clear the horizon for you?"
33306	Does that patch in the ceiling cover the hole?"
33306	Had any of them been seen in the vicinity of the outpost camp?
33306	Had n''t you suspected?
33306	Had you thought of that?"
33306	Has this emotional insanity you are talking about anything to do with the old cattle king''s objection to being syndicated out of existence?"
33306	Have either of you two imagination enough to help me out?"
33306	Have you arrived at that conclusion, also?"
33306	Have you ever seen any of it before?"
33306	Have you forgotten that to- day-- a few hours ago-- another attempt was made upon your life?"
33306	Have you fully made up your mind to leave me here while you go on down to the railroad?
33306	Have you lost him?"
33306	Have you really decided that it is quite safe to trust yourself in the camp of the enemy?"
33306	Have you seen anything to make you believe that these fellows have a tip from the big house in the upper valley?"
33306	He is som''where on da camp?"
33306	How are you coming on?
33306	How could they know whether we were friends or enemies?"
33306	How did you know?
33306	How do I know?"
33306	How far is it-- six miles, or thereabouts?"
33306	How long did you say the colonel had lived in Arcadia?"
33306	How long will it take us to get in?"
33306	How many drinks did you take in those two hours?"
33306	How the dickens did you manage to hear of it?"
33306	How''s Bromley?
33306	Huccome you to get lef'', Cap''n Boss?"
33306	I assume that he has a name, like other men?"
33306	I put it to you as man to man; would you have disappointed her?"
33306	I suppose it is n''t necessary to ask who tripped you?"
33306	I wonder if I can get Bromley?"
33306	I wonder if I could see him for a few minutes, before I go back to camp?"
33306	If not, who was the murderer?--and why was the colonel''s daughter so evidently determined to shield him?
33306	In Cuba?"
33306	Is he better?"
33306	Is it Mr. Wingfield now?"
33306	Is it because I''m only one of many?
33306	Is it true that the Colorado irrigation scheme has blotted out three of its field officers?"
33306	Is n''t it pathetic?"
33306	Is n''t it so?"
33306	Is n''t this the Denver car?"
33306	Is that all?"
33306	Is that the colonel''s country house up yonder in the middle of our reservoir- that- is- to- be?"
33306	Is the arm hurting like sin?"
33306	Is there annything I can do?"
33306	Is your anxiety-- the trouble you refuse to share with me-- any lighter?"
33306	Let me see; how many is that?"
33306	Macpherson?"
33306	May I come again to Castle''Cadia?"
33306	Must you go now?
33306	My resignation goes in to- morrow morning, and I take it yours will?"
33306	Nothing serious, I hope?"
33306	Now that is settled, will you take a little walk with me?
33306	Of course, you''ll get yourself recalled to New York at once?"
33306	Oh, for pity''s sake ca n''t you think of some way to stop him?"
33306	Or are you all Mrs. Van Bryck''s guests?"
33306	Or are you to figure as the consolation prize for his widow?
33306	Or is it your attitude toward all men?"
33306	Or, rather, what is at the bottom of it?"
33306	P.?"
33306	People will be eager to buy it-- won''t they?--with the work all done, and everything in readiness to tap the stream of sudden wealth?"
33306	Say; you do n''t happen to have an extra spark- plug about your clothes, either of you, do you?
33306	Shall I have Otto bring the car and drive you around to your camp?"
33306	Shall I run him off the riservation?"
33306	She leaned over the arm of the driving- seat and searched his eyes pleadingly:"Please tell me: how much did Mr. Wingfield find out?"
33306	Silence again for a little space; and then:"There is no doubt in your mind that he has hit upon the true solution of all the little mysteries?"
33306	Suppose you ask him?"
33306	Tell me frankly, is there any good reason why I should n''t?"
33306	Tell me, Elsa, dear: is your father always fully accountable for his actions?"
33306	Tell me: was Sanderson more than casually interested in the details of Braithwaite''s drowning?
33306	That means nothing to you-- does it also mean nothing that your life was imperilled within an hour of your arrival at your camp?"
33306	That''s simply ripping good stuff-- worlds of possibilities in a thing like that, do n''t you know?
33306	The vital question, under such abnormal conditions as those presenting themselves in your canyon, is, What kind of rock was it?"
33306	Then he asked the question for which Ballard was waiting:"How did Mr. Pelham take the new grief?"
33306	Then suddenly:"What brought you here-- so late?"
33306	Then, abruptly:"Loudon, who uses the path that goes up on our side of the canyon and over into the Castle''Cadia valley?"
33306	Then, lowering his voice again:"Is the boy trustworthy?"
33306	Then, remembering Bromley''s report of the empty ranch headquarters and corrals:"You think there is danger?"
33306	Then:"Will Mr. Pelham come out to the formal and triumphal opening of the Arcadian Irrigation District?"
33306	Then:"You''re going to walk?"
33306	There was a little space for action, but what could be done?
33306	They''ll probably shoot at you, but you wo n''t mind that, with six or eight feet of granite for a breastwork, will you, Jerry?"
33306	Want to dodge''em?"
33306	Was Macpherson''s death purely accidental?--or Braithwaite''s?
33306	Was it possible that the three violent deaths were not mere coincidences, after all?
33306	We drove it all right, though, did n''t we, Colonel?
33306	What about that?"
33306	What are we going to do about that undermined hill?"
33306	What could have induced her to substitute a summer in Colorado, travelling under Mrs. Van Bryck''s wing?
33306	What do you heah?"
33306	What do you say?"
33306	What do you want me to do?"
33306	What does he know?--more than we know?"
33306	What does it mean?"
33306	What has happened?"
33306	What has upset you so?
33306	What if he had overheard the talk in the office?
33306	What is the attraction over here?--a summer- resort hotel?"
33306	What is the other half, Breckenridge?"
33306	What is the reason, the only reason, why Colonel Craigmiles should resort to all these desperate expedients?"
33306	What made you lose your head?"
33306	What was it you said to me about''two sheer accidents and a commonplace tragedy''?
33306	What was it you told me once about the high plane of men- friendships?
33306	What was the motive behind the hurled stone which had so nearly bred a tragedy on his first evening at Elbow Canyon?
33306	What was the mystery so evidently enshrouding the tragedies at Elbow Canyon?
33306	What will they do to him?"
33306	What will you do with Hoskins?"
33306	What will you do with this po''scoundrel of mine, Mistuh Ballard?"
33306	What would the most peerless Arcadia be without its shepherdess?
33306	What''s next?"
33306	When is it to be?"
33306	Where is father?"
33306	Where is he?"
33306	Where is she now?"
33306	Where is your father now?"
33306	Who ever tries to make a record of after- dinner fictions?
33306	Why did n''t you say something?"
33306	Why had Elsa Craigmiles changed her mind so suddenly about spending the summer in Europe?
33306	Why had Manuel gone out of his way to stop at the mine?
33306	Why have n''t you had him arrested and tried and condemned, like any other common murderer?"
33306	Why is it?
33306	Why should he expect it?
33306	Why should he try to kill you one minute and move heaven and earth to save your life the next?"
33306	Why should there be a''gentlemen''s agreement''to exclude your father?
33306	Why?
33306	Why?"
33306	Will you pardon me if I say that it seems to have its compensation in the law of recurrences?"
33306	Will you permit me to suggest that it was taking rather a long chance?--your bringing him down here?"
33306	Will you send Otto in the car to see if there is anything we can do?"
33306	Will you tell Mr. Pelham about the rotten tooth-- to- night, I mean?"
33306	Wingfield?"
33306	Wingfield?"
33306	Wingfield?"
33306	Wingfield?"
33306	Wingfield?"
33306	Wo n''t you be merciful and try me again?"
33306	Wo n''t you go along?"
33306	Wo n''t you please tell me the worst, Breckenridge?"
33306	Would Blacklock be one of the three?
33306	Would it pass without its tragedy?
33306	Would n''t that jar you?"
33306	Would the nerve- shattering mysteries never be cleared away?
33306	Would you call that a joke?"
33306	Yet do you know you have never once gone back of your college days in speaking of yourself?
33306	Yet he was quite unprepared for her grave and frankly reproachful question:"Why are n''t you going to Cuba?
33306	You are quite sure you were followed, you and Mr. Ballard, on the day before the dynamiting of the canal?"
33306	You are sure it was the colonel who fired at me?"
33306	You are tarred a little with the superstitious stick, yourself, are you?
33306	You do n''t care to go to the foot of the pass with one of the trains, do you?"
33306	You have been waiting some time?
33306	You say Wingfield is recovering?
33306	You took their word for these little details?"
33306	You were saying----?"
33306	You will excuse me if I go at once?
33306	You''ve had the open door, first, last, and all the time, have n''t you?"
33306	Youh-- youh name is Ballard-- Breckenridge Ballard, is n''t it?"
33306	are you hit?
33306	do you hear that, Jerry?"
33306	or did she put in the little hemstitchings for me?"
33306	said Bigelow, breaking the silence in which they had been riding for the greater part of the three hours,"what''s this we are coming to?"
33306	she asked; adding:"Some time when you are fit?"
33306	what have I done?"
33306	will he never saw it off and let us get that stone set?"
33306	with all the three- sheet- poster evidence staring you in the face?
37249	''Mirapolis''?
37249	A city?--in this reservoir bottom? 37249 Am I my brother''s keeper?"
37249	And Gomorrah?
37249	And about this Massingale affair-- you will not interfere again?
37249	And let him blackmail me? 37249 And still you wo n''t print this?"
37249	And the government?
37249	And the next minute?
37249	And the other?
37249	And the source could n''t possibly have become contaminated by the Cortwright germs?
37249	And the structure itself-- how high is it to be?
37249	And what started you off into the memory woods, particularly, to- night?
37249	And you are carrying that millstone? 37249 And you are trying to tell me that father made a hundred thousand dollars just in those few hours by buying and selling Mirapolis lots?
37249	And you have----?
37249	And you met him? 37249 And you-- you believed all this?"
37249	And your labor?
37249	Another seven?
37249	Anything else remarkable up your sleeve?
37249	Anything new?
37249	Are you never going to forget that senseless bit of twaddle?
37249	Are you sure? 37249 Are you-- are you_ plumb_ sure you can spare it?"
37249	Are you?
37249	As you were saying?
37249	Before Congress convenes, you mean?
37249	Believing that it was for the best interests of the railroad to come here?
37249	Brouillard, do you know what you are talking about?
37249	Brouillard,he grated huskily,"does this mean that you''re breaking with us, once for all?"
37249	But how?
37249	But now you think he is going to make his bluff good?
37249	But now,she queried--"now, I suppose, you have become reconciled?"
37249	But tell me, what would you do with your pot of rainbow gold-- if you should find it?
37249	But where is she now?
37249	But will you? 37249 But you did advise Mr. Ford to build the Extension?"
37249	But you have made the plans for this power plant, have n''t you?
37249	But you have the order?
37249	But your part in this horrible plot, Victor?
37249	Catching you, too, is it, Victor?
37249	Chief engineer, eh? 37249 Comparatively rich, you say?--and you washed this spoonful out of a single pan?"
37249	Curious that this particular fly should drop into your pot of ointment on your birthday, was n''t it?
37249	Did I?
37249	Did it agree with you?
37249	Did n''t I? 37249 Did n''t Smith know better than to take her down there at such a time as this?"
37249	Did you find out?
37249	Did you imagine that your workmen were any less human than other people?
37249	Did you sign those notes personally, or as president of the new company?
37249	Did you think we were going to cut the melon and hand you out a piece of the rind? 37249 Did you?--and before you had a stake in the game?
37249	Do n''t they?
37249	Do n''t you ever get beyond that?
37249	Do n''t you? 37249 Do you call_ that_ civilization?"
37249	Do you do it as other men do?--just to hear how it sounds?
37249	Do you know the reason why it was given?
37249	Do you know what I''m thinking about, Mr. Brouillard? 37249 Do you know, Brouillard, Hosford gets on my nerves, too?
37249	Do you mean to say that real farms with green things growing on them can be made out of that frightful desert we drove over yesterday afternoon?
37249	Do you really believe that? 37249 Do you think my daughter could walk it?"
37249	Do you want me to be frivolous or serious?
37249	Do you want me to say that I should have missed a great deal? 37249 Does he make that a command?"
37249	Does it date back to the handicap? 37249 Does n''t he want to make money?"
37249	Does the order cover more than the work on the dam?
37249	Does this formal notice that the waste- gates will be closed three weeks from to- morrow go as it stands?
37249	Even if it should give you another attack of the''seeing things''?
37249	Extenuating circumstances-- is that what you mean? 37249 For example?"
37249	Fuel for your power plant?--wood I take it?
37249	H''m,said the millionaire;"a cement plant, eh?
37249	Has it never occurred to you that she may be just a woman-- like other women? 37249 Has she told you so?"
37249	Have n''t you heard how the men of the desert camps kill each other for the chance to pick up a lady''s handkerchief?
37249	Have you been given to understand that this office is in any sense a tail to your Improvement Company''s kite?
37249	Have you heard the talk of the street? 37249 Have you seen Miss Massingale since noon?"
37249	He means to give you the casting vote? 37249 How about those notes in the bank?
37249	How are you, Mr. Massingale? 37249 How can any one predict that when Congress is not in session?"
37249	How can you know that?
37249	How can you tell? 37249 How did you know that I have been wanting to come up here once more before everything is changed?"
37249	How did you know?
37249	How do you know I gave him a hundred thousand dollars?
37249	How does that strike you?
37249	How is the line to- night, Sanford-- pretty clear?
37249	How straight is your tip, Harlan?
37249	How was that?
37249	How?
37249	Huh?
37249	I asked you who has been gossiping about me; not Grizzy?
37249	I knew, or thought I knew, that you were miles away, over in the Buckskin; and how could I call you?
37249	I suppose Harlan is getting ready to exploit the new sensation right?
37249	I want you to send a wire to Red Butte telling the smelter people that you will be glad to have them handle the''Little Susan''ore."And if I do?
37249	I wonder if you know how little I care?
37249	If it had succeeded? 37249 If they should happen to uncover a gold reef just now it would simplify matters immensely for Mirapolis, would n''t it?
37249	In less than a hundredth part of that time you''ll be at the top of the Reclamation- Service pay- roll-- won''t that help out?
37249	Is it a good reason?
37249	Is it business?
37249	Is it my fault that Massingale ca n''t pay his debts?
37249	Is it so? 37249 Is n''t that your notion?"
37249	Is she-- the one incomparable she-- worth it, Victor?
37249	Is that all you have to say?
37249	Is that all you have to say?
37249	Is that all?
37249	Is that the new name?
37249	It means a great deal to you, does n''t it?
37249	It''s about a hundred and twenty miles from this to El Gato, on the Grand Canyon, is n''t it, Mr. Brouillard? 37249 Let''s see,"said the newsman thoughtfully;"what is there worth taking that they did n''t take in the_ sauve qui peut_?
37249	May I break in with a bit of bad news?
37249	Meaning that he is too uncompromisingly honest to be one of us? 37249 Miss Massingale?
37249	My brother?
37249	No?
37249	Now for the business end of the deal-- why do n''t you sit down?
37249	Now tell me about the''Little Susan''; is the Blue- grass farm looming up comfortably on the eastern edge of things?
37249	Of course you do n''t take any stock in the rumor that the government will call a halt?
37249	Oh, yes; let me see; are they due to- day?
37249	On the dam, you mean? 37249 Ought I to know the gentleman?"
37249	Sell it? 37249 Shall I do what you would have me do, Amy?
37249	Since when?
37249	So you''re_ that_ kind of a fire- eater, are you? 37249 Still you say you do n''t want to scrap?"
37249	Supposing it was-- what''s the difference? 37249 Tell me one thing, Brouillard: what is your stake in the Massingale game?
37249	That brings on more talk-- about a thousand miles of it, does n''t it?
37249	That is your challenge, is it?
37249	That night, you mean? 37249 The Cortwright people want the road, do n''t they?"
37249	The Massingale mine, eh?
37249	The way to keep me from talking is to do it all yourself; what happened to me last night?
37249	The-- what?
37249	Then it is your opinion that if this were printed it would do the business?
37249	Then what happened?
37249	Then why are you so anxious to make old David a rich man at my expense? 37249 Then why did you do it?
37249	Then you have n''t heard? 37249 Then you will advise against the building of the Extension?"
37249	Under guard?
37249	We ca n''t stand for any more chaos than the gods have already doped out for us, can we?
37249	Well, did you succeed in placing the lady?
37249	Well, then, how about the choice between two evils? 37249 Well, what more do you want?
37249	Well, what of it?
37249	Well, why was n''t it fair?
37249	Well,said Grislow again,"what of it?
37249	Well,was the millionaire''s greeting,"you waited to be sent for, did n''t you?"
37249	Well?
37249	Well?
37249	Well?
37249	Well?
37249	Well?
37249	Well?
37249	What are the spellbinders doing, Grizzy?
37249	What are you going to do about it, Victor?
37249	What can you possibly know about the Assyrians?
37249	What can you, or any man who sets himself apart as you do, know about the troubles and besetments of ordinary people? 37249 What did I say?
37249	What did I say?
37249	What did he tell you?
37249	What do you know, Brouillard?
37249	What do you want this time?
37249	What does it mean to you-- to you, personally, and apart from the money your father might make out of it, Amy?
37249	What fact?
37249	What has all this bubble blowing got to do with the building of a temporary power dam and the setting up of a couple of cement kilns?
37249	What has given you the impression that you own me, Mr. Cortwright? 37249 What have I done to make you forget how to talk?"
37249	What is it?
37249	What is the active principle of your''sevens''--or have n''t you figured it out?
37249	What is the one thing you would n''t sell?
37249	What is your need?
37249	What is your tip?
37249	What makes you think that?
37249	What sort of a bug have you got in your cosmos this morning, Brouillard? 37249 What was the threat?"
37249	What would I do? 37249 What would you do with it?
37249	What''s come over you, lately, Victor? 37249 What''s doing, and who''s doing it?"
37249	What''s got into you? 37249 What''s that up there?"
37249	What''s the odds if you go to it and bring back the money? 37249 What?
37249	When have I ever bleated when I should have kept still?
37249	When is it? 37249 Where does the Honorable All- the- rest keep himself?"
37249	Where was it you saw them, Castner?
37249	Who is Lord Falkland?
37249	Who is your treasurer?
37249	Who said that?
37249	Why do n''t you drop in once in a while and give me the run of things?
37249	Why do you ask me?
37249	Why do you doubt it? 37249 Why do you want to know?"
37249	Why not?
37249	Why not?
37249	Why not?
37249	Why not?
37249	Why should n''t I say it? 37249 Why should n''t we take to- day, the only day we can be sure of having, and use and enjoy it while it is ours?
37249	Why should you doubt it?
37249	Why should you? 37249 Why the devil did n''t you fellows turn out?"
37249	Why''of course''?
37249	Will you come along?
37249	Will you go with me, Victor? 37249 Wo n''t you?"
37249	Yes?
37249	Yes?
37249	You are Amy-- and this is that other world you used to talk about, is n''t it?
37249	You are certain that your information did n''t originate right here in Mirapolis-- in Mr. Cortwright''s office, to locate it more exactly?
37249	You are ready to let go, are you?
37249	You are selling Mirapolis holdings short to- day, Garner?
37249	You could n''t conjure an omen out of that, could you? 37249 You did this deliberately, Victor, weighing all the consequences?
37249	You do n''t deny them?
37249	You have n''t been tumbling into the ditch with Leshington and Griffith and the rest of us and making love to the little sister, have you?
37249	You interested yourself? 37249 You mean that I have brought my cut finger to you?"
37249	You saw President Ford after I did; what did he say when he was over here?
37249	You say you saw the money in father''s hands; tell me, Victor, did you see him pay it into the bank?
37249	You say you''re goin''down to the Buckskin right away? 37249 You say your father has borrowed of the bank-- is Mr. Cortwright mixed up in the loan in any way?"
37249	You sent for me?
37249	You will marry her?
37249	You would n''t let pride-- a false pride-- stand in the way of her happiness?
37249	You''ll be up on the stagings yourself, wo n''t you?
37249	You''ll bet money h- on dat?--h- all de money you got?
37249	You''ll rob an old man first, and then call him a thief and set the sheriff on him, will you----?
37249	You''ll surely want to give me my instructions a little beforehand, wo n''t you? 37249 You''re Brillard, the government man, I take it?"
37249	You''re giving Garner a blank card to buy for your account? 37249 You''ve borrowed to meet these notes?"
37249	You''ve had it out with Cortwright?
37249	You, Victor?
37249	You? 37249 You?"
37249	You?
37249	Your business, maybe; it falls right in your line, does n''t it?
37249	Your father is n''t at home?
37249	Ze dinnare-- she was h- all right, M''sieu''Brouillard?
37249	_ He had the money?_ Where did he get it?
37249	_ He had the money?_ Where did he get it?
37249	Am I making it plain?"
37249	And he has spent ninety thousand dollars on the''Little Susan''in sixty days?
37249	And how will you get it here?"
37249	And the girl on horseback?
37249	And then, without any bush beating, the critical question was fired point- blank:"What becomes of all these fellows you are dropping?
37249	And then, without warning:"What if I should tell you that the railroad is not coming to the Niquoia, Amy?"
37249	And then:"Where is he now?
37249	And then:"You''re one of the Reclamation engineers?
37249	And your freedom-- how have you made a hundred thousand dollars in these few weeks?
37249	And yours is----?"
37249	And, besides, there''s Amy; you owe her something, do n''t you?--or do n''t you?
37249	Any truth in that?"
37249	Anybody seen him since?"
37249	Are n''t we just as far from a carbide shop as we are from the dynamo?
37249	Are you a silent partner in the''Little Susan''?"
37249	Are you all packed?"
37249	Are you asleep?"
37249	Are you catching on?"
37249	Are you going to be_ very_ busy this afternoon?"
37249	Are you going to marry the girl?"
37249	Are you going?
37249	Besides, did n''t Brouillard say I was to get an extension if I could?"
37249	Brought the cash, did you?
37249	Brouillard took another long minute at the office window before he said:"What would you do if you were in my place, Murray?"
37249	Brouillard was pointedly occupying himself at his desk, but he looked up long enough to say:"Whiskey, you mean?"
37249	Brouillard?"
37249	Brouillard?"
37249	Brouillard?"
37249	Brouillard?"
37249	But about this railroad fizzle; I do n''t relish the notion of having our little joke sprung on us before we''re ready to laugh, do you?
37249	But if you had a cut finger you would n''t go to a man in hell to get it tied up, would you?"
37249	But in this thing which you are proposing there are issues involved which----""You want time to think it over?
37249	But tell me, what are some of the things that may happen?"
37249	But what of it?"
37249	But why not, Mr. Brouillard?
37249	But you say the stock was to be released when the notes were paid-- what was to happen if they were not paid?"
37249	Buy corner lots in Niqoyastcà   djeburg?"
37249	By the way, did you know that he_ is_ Lord Falkland now?
37249	Ca n''t you contrive to get word to me, some way-- after it is all over?
37249	Can we make the road pay if we bring it here?
37249	Can you give me my present figure?...
37249	Can you read minds and hearts as you do your maps and drawings?
37249	Can you remember the words?"
37249	Cortwright?"
37249	Cortwright?"
37249	Cortwright?"
37249	Cortwright?"
37249	Cortwright?"
37249	Did n''t I say just now that the town was crazy with excitement when I left to come up here?"
37249	Did n''t we agree that that money was poisoned?
37249	Did old David Massingale get out of J. Wesley''s clutches before the lightning struck?"
37249	Digging for information, I suppose?"
37249	Do I make it clear?"
37249	Do n''t you believe it?"
37249	Do n''t you know that it is only the very vainest people who say that?"
37249	Do n''t you know that?"
37249	Do you believe in Freiborg''s theory of the multiple personality?
37249	Do you get that, Murray?"
37249	Do you know that I once had the pleasure of introducing your good father to my bankers in Chicago?
37249	Do you know what that plank- faced organizer has got up his sleeve?
37249	Do you know what the men have named you?
37249	Do you know why?
37249	Do you remember that?"
37249	Do you wonder that I have lost the knack?"
37249	Does n''t it look good to you any more?"
37249	Does n''t your brother know that it is illegal to shoot a trout stream?"
37249	Facing them as I am obliged to face them, I am telling you-- but what''s the use?
37249	Father thinks too much of making money-- a great deal too much; and you----""Well?"
37249	First rate, I hope?"
37249	Fits like the glove on a pretty girl''s arm, does n''t it?"
37249	Ford?"
37249	Ford?"
37249	Garner, cancel my order to sell, will you?
37249	Grislow?"
37249	Had I ort to?"
37249	Had he not expressly declared that the object of the desert automobile trip was mere tourist curiosity?
37249	Has Gomorrah changed it?"
37249	Has anybody found out yet who touched off the gold- mounted sky- rocket?"
37249	Have n''t you any imagination?"
37249	Have n''t you met him?
37249	Have you ever been in the Blue- grass country?"
37249	Have you ever seen any vouchers for the money spent?"
37249	Have you got time to''put us next''?"
37249	He fights his way to his ends without caring much for the consequences to others; but tell me-- haven''t you been doing the same thing?"
37249	He will build the Extension if you advise it?"
37249	Honestly, now, Harlan, what do you think about it yourself?
37249	Hosford?"
37249	How about that?"
37249	How did you settle it finally?"
37249	How far is it up to where you are going to build your dam?"
37249	How is Steve this evening?"
37249	How is Steve?"
37249	How is the boy getting along?
37249	How is young Massingale getting along?"
37249	How long would it take you to get action in the Washington matter, do you think?"
37249	How much is it going to cost us to stay in?"
37249	How much is it going to cost us?"
37249	How much money have you got?"
37249	How much more time will you need to enable you to get returns from your shipments?
37249	How will that do?"
37249	How''m I goin''to secure you for this?"
37249	How_ can_ you be sure?"
37249	I thought you told me you merely went down and took a look-- didn''t butt in?"
37249	If there were time-- but you say this is the last day?"
37249	If you were the executive committee of the Pacific Southwestern, would you, or would you not, build the Extension?
37249	Is a man a mere bit of driftwood, to be tossed about in the froth of any wave that happens to come along, as Freiborg says he is?"
37249	Is it ever justifiable to do evil that good may come?"
37249	Is it true that you''ve had orders from Washington within the past few days to cut your force on the dam one half?"
37249	Is n''t it a part of your job?"
37249	Is n''t it worth something to realize that?"
37249	Is n''t that about the size of it?"
37249	Is n''t that so?"
37249	Is n''t there a possibility, just the least little shadow of a possibility, that I do n''t deserve to be punished?"
37249	Is that Boyer-- Niquoia National?...
37249	Is that all?"
37249	Is that asking too much?"
37249	Is that explicit enough?"
37249	Is that it?"
37249	Is that the plan?"
37249	Is that true?"
37249	Is there anything we can do?"
37249	Is your father here?"
37249	Is your telephone line up here in operation?"
37249	Is your work going to start up again?
37249	It figgered out this- a- way in the talk: they said, what''s the use o''takin''the money out o''one pocket and puttin''it into the other?
37249	It is to be war between us from this on?"
37249	Lack of money?
37249	Looks like I needed a janitor to look after my upper story, do n''t it?
37249	Massingale?"
37249	Massingale?"
37249	Massingale?"
37249	Mirapolis is already a city of frenzied knaves and dupes; did you realize that you were taking the chance of turning it into a wicked pandemonium?
37249	Must I be set down as hopelessly and irreclaimably frivolous just because I have chosen to laugh when possibly another woman might have cried?"
37249	Must you carry it?"
37249	Not more than that?...
37249	Now, then, does that stand the band- wagon upon its wheels again?"
37249	Oh, Victor, is it clean money?"
37249	Or is it going off for good?"
37249	Or shall I do what is best for you?"
37249	Shall I go over to the_ Spot- Light_ office and tell Harlan what I know?"
37249	Sixty days?
37249	Sommtime ve get de railroad,_ n''est- ce pas_, M''sieu''Brouillard?
37249	Suppose I should tell you that practically all of your bosses are in with us; what then?"
37249	THE TERROR 322 ILLUSTRATIONS"What would I do?
37249	Tell me, Mr. Brouillard, have you asked her to marry you?"
37249	That would be the reasonable conclusion, would n''t it?"
37249	The materials have all been tested, I suppose?"
37249	The only question is this: Is the one only and incomparable she worth the effort?
37249	The question is: Will they be rediscovered?
37249	The''Little Susan''has begun to pan out, has it?
37249	Then Miss Amy got word to you?
37249	Then he asked a question:"When is this little hell- on- earth going to be finally extinguished, Victor?"
37249	Then he put in the word of warning:"I suppose you''ll be dabbling a little in Mirapolis options after you get this note business out of the way?
37249	Then the inevitable question:"They''re sayin''on the street that you''re lettin''out half o''your men-- that so?"
37249	Then to Brouillard:"Say, young man; you do n''t mean to tell me that your father''s son needs a guardian, do you?
37249	Then, with a determined wrenching aside of the subject:"Are you going up on Chigringo this afternoon?"
37249	Then, with a purposeful changing of the subject:"Where is Miss Massingale?
37249	Then, with business- like directness:"What will you build it of?--concrete?"
37249	Then:"What has come over you lately, Brouillard?
37249	There were ideals in the beginning; you admitted it, did n''t you?
37249	There will be a called meeting of the directors here in this room to- morrow evening at eight o''clock, and----""Who calls it?"
37249	Think I do n''t remember how you were always ranting about the dignity of a man''s work and quoting Kipling at me?
37249	Think you could manage to get Ford on the wire and encourage him a little more?"
37249	To whom?"
37249	Want to come along?"
37249	Was n''t Massingale personally involved in some way?"
37249	Were the field- notes in when you left Washington?"
37249	What about a man''s natural limitations?"
37249	What about the dam?
37249	What are you calling it?"
37249	What are your orders from the department?"
37249	What are your two evils?"
37249	What became of the one hundred thousand dollars you gave old David Massingale?"
37249	What did he do with it-- gamble it?"
37249	What do we get out of life more than the day''s dole of-- well, of whatever we care most for?
37249	What do you mean?
37249	What do you say?"
37249	What do you say?"
37249	What do you think?"
37249	What happened when you were twenty- one-- or were you too busy just then chasing the elusive engineering degree to take notice?"
37249	What has your pay- roll been?"
37249	What have you been doing all these days when I have n''t been able to keep tab on you?"
37249	What have you done with old David?"
37249	What if I had gone about town contradicting the rumor?"
37249	What if the boomers were taking an unauthorized ell for their authorized inch?
37249	What is it the Good Book says?
37249	What is it?"
37249	What is it?"
37249	What shall I tell Miss Massingale when she asks about you?"
37249	What was the quarrel about, between him and Van Bruce?"
37249	What were you doing twenty minutes ago?"
37249	What will you do?--build your dam right here and take out your canal through the canyon?
37249	What''s the matter with our money?
37249	What''s up?"
37249	What''s your grief?"
37249	What''s your price?"
37249	What?
37249	When do those notes of yours fall due?"
37249	When will you want my expert opinion on your auxiliary dam?"
37249	Where did you say I''d find your wire office?"
37249	Where is she, and what was the message?"
37249	Where is your sense of humor?"
37249	Where will you get it?
37249	Where''s the boss?"
37249	Who has been telling you all these things about me?"
37249	Who says so?
37249	Why do n''t you care?"
37249	Why is Steve proposing to give this thing away?
37249	Why is n''t he working the bar himself?"
37249	Why should he go out of his way to quarrel with it on high moral grounds?
37249	Will you come down and see us off?"
37249	Will you saw it off with me that way?--until you''ve made the turn on the ore sales?"
37249	Wo n''t you ask me to sit down?"
37249	Would he go, if he might have the post of honor behind the pilot- wheel of the new sixty- horse, seven- passenger flyer?
37249	Would it go up, or down, with a sudden resumption of work on the dam?"
37249	Would n''t that be delightful?"
37249	Would n''t that be rather awkward?"
37249	Would n''t that set your teeth on edge?"
37249	Would the department place the men and the means instantly at his disposal?
37249	Would the miracle be wrought?
37249	Would you do it?"
37249	Would you give a hundred thousand dollars for the privilege of being able to say to her:''Come, dear, let''s go and get married''?"
37249	Would you mind telling me just why?"
37249	You ai n''t allowin''to use it on her, Victor?"
37249	You believe that, Amy?
37249	You do n''t need any kindergartner of a construction man to help you solve a little problem like that, do you?"
37249	You know that long, narrow sand- bar in the river just below the mouth of the upper canyon?"
37249	You say the men clear out when they are discharged-- isn''t that about what you''d do if you were out of a job?"
37249	You want something-- is it that damned Massingale business again?
37249	You want to keep your job, do n''t you?"
37249	You wo n''t forget that, will you?"
37249	You wo n''t turn us down on this, Brouillard?"
37249	You would say that''Bimi''would be just about the last thing in the world to put anybody to sleep, would n''t you?
37249	You''d put us out of business?
37249	You''ve eaten here before; what do you pay Bongras for a reasonably good dinner?"
37249	You''ve got some sort of an engineers''mess, I take it?"
37249	You_ are_ connected with it, are n''t you?"
37249	_ Savez?_"The chauffeur was adjusting something under the upturned bonnet of the touring- car and thus hiding his grin.
37249	am I really such a transparent egoist as all that?"
37249	do n''t you see?
37249	do you know that it is after ten o''clock?"
37249	in Chicago?"
37249	she panted,"is love a thing to be cheapened like that-- to be sinned for?"
37249	that touched you, did n''t it?"
37249	what in Sam Hill do you take us for?"
37249	would n''t that give you a fit of the creepies?--this far from civilization and a dynamo?"
