33210How far do you expect to go to- day?"
33210How is that for high?"
33210How much is a man worth, eh?
33210How was Jim to get off that rock?
33210How were your father and mother?"
33210I asked,"ladders?"
33210I asked,"where we have cover?"
33210I asked,"where''s Captain?"
33210I exclaimed in alarm,"do n''t you think that the captain and Tom will locate us soon and get us out of this?"
33210I exclaimed, skeptically,"what would anybody do with houses up on a place like that and who would live in them?"
33210I whispered,"what''s that over by that rock?"
33210Let me keep it?"
33210See?"
33210Then he turned towards me, throwing one hand up, exclaiming:"How, how, Jo Darlington?"
33210Then where would we be?
33210What are you waiting for?
33210What did you do with him?"
33210What is it?"
33210What makes you think it is going to rain?"
33210What was the use?
33210What was the use?
33210Where do you suppose he got it?"
33210Where is she?"
33210Where''s my rifle?"
33210Who would reach it first?
33210Why did n''t we think of it before?"
33210Why had I not thought of that before?
33210Why, do n''t you know that those buck Indians will cover seventy- five miles in a day and over mountains too?
33210Would n''t it puzzle these scientific fellars if they should find a living representation of Tommy in the wall of the mesa?
33210You know they are the original Americans?"
33210asked Jim,"to get back to the plateau?"
33210said Jim,"you are not afraid of the old lady stealing you, are you?"
33210wo n''t they burn?"
21841A bottle, Ted?
21841A messenger, Ted?
21841A trail, you say?
21841All right; where will you take up your stand, Frank?
21841And I can just imagine how Eugene''s little eyes will sparkle when he hears about that valuable paper; eh, dad?
21841And after reaching such a conclusion as that, how comes it you persisted in trying to carry out your original intention?
21841And both horses are there?
21841And how far does this thing run-- is it fifty miles in length?
21841And in all these times I suppose you''ve never known anybody to be around here?
21841And in the morning?
21841And leave him loose here, with the horses close by?
21841And now, please, tell us what it''s all about; wo n''t you; and what this gentleman has to do with it; also the bottle Ted said you were handling?
21841And what did he tell you, Frank?
21841And what then?
21841And will you start after him right away, Frank?
21841And yet none of the rough riders have even thought to search that rocky pile for her den, you say?
21841And you found her home? 21841 And you still want to go on horseback; when you might reach the railroad, and take a train, easily enough?"
21841And you think it may have been our friend, Havasupai?
21841Any signs of the lame yearling, Frank?
21841Are you Sheriff Stanwix?
21841Are you gentlemen from Prescott?
21841Back again, Pete; and did you see anything of that seven head?
21841But Frank, if the Moqui carried that note of yours to Uncle Felix, he would be on his guard, and absolutely refuse to sign away the papers?
21841But I do n''t see Abajo anywhere about the piazza of the hotel; do you?
21841But did n''t it strike you, dad,ventured Frank,"that his excuse for being under that window was silly?"
21841But did you notice the clever way Charley Moi avoided the deluge?
21841But do you really think Abajo was listening?
21841But do you think we ever can find the hermit of Echo Cave?
21841But how d''ye suppose this greasy old Indian ever got the document?
21841But in that case, Frank, how under the sun could the old fellows ever get up to their dens, which you said must be near the top of a high cliff?
21841But it wo n''t make a bit of difference in our plans, dad; will it?
21841But just stop and think how easy Abajo, sharp rascal that he is, rose to my little bait?
21841But some time between dark and morning these three rascals went in here, and surprised the hermit of Echo Cave-- is that it, Frank?
21841But what about camping here?
21841But what can we do with this fellow, Frank?
21841But what has happened, Ted?
21841But what if we miss, and the beast attacks us?
21841But what was he prowling around the camp for?
21841But what''s Hank going to do?
21841But when do we start?
21841But where did the big one go to; has she escaped after all?
21841But where did you meet him?
21841But you did n''t see any goat, Frank, did you?
21841But you do n''t want to tell John Henry that we saw him making a bargain with Spanish Joe, I take it?
21841But you promise to return my papers to me after I have complied with your outrageous demands?
21841But, Frank, however could the old Moqui get up there to see Uncle Felix?
21841Can we trust him?
21841D''ye suppose he made some sort of signal, and the hermit lowered a long rope with a noose at the end, which would draw him up? 21841 Did n''t I hear something about his being a relative to that Spanish Joe who gave us so much trouble a little while back, on Thunder Mountain?"
21841Do n''t you wish you knew?
21841Do you mean the man who signed his name here, Professor Oswald?
21841Do you think you can track him, Frank?
21841Easy now, Buckskin; what''s making you act this way? 21841 Find''em Frank?"
21841Footprints, and were they made by the old professor, do you think?
21841Getting to be a habit, is n''t it, Frank?
21841Have you any idea where it came from?
21841He got the precious paper, all right, eh?
21841Hear that, Mr. Stanwix; he says we''re going to get off easy, and you might as well wish us good day right now?
21841Here, can you tell us where my horse kicked you?
21841How about it?
21841How about that, Charley; is this the place where you hang out?
21841How about that, Hand?
21841How about that, Hank?
21841How about that, Havasupai; were n''t you thinking of stealing a horse, when that animal just keeled you over so neatly?
21841How did he get out of here?
21841How do? 21841 How many times have you come up this far, Charley Moi?"
21841How under the sun d''ye suppose that old professor could ever get up and down? 21841 I reckon they will have a heap to say about it; and Abajo, after this, wo n''t take us for easy marks, will he?"
21841I suppose it''s us to hit the saddle again now?
21841I suppose we take our guns along with us when we''re going the rounds of the sights?
21841I suppose you know the writing well enough to feel sure this came from your noted uncle, sir?
21841I wonder how much he heard?
21841Is he doing stunts; or does he want us?
21841Is it about that scheming cousin of your father''s-- what did you say his name was-- Eugene Warringford?
21841Is there no other way out?
21841Just when did this happen, Charley Moi?
21841Listen to Buckskin snorting; what d''ye suppose ails him?
21841Makes a fellow feel mighty small; does n''t it?
21841Me? 21841 Meaning about that business of listening under the window?"
21841Meaning his craze to be the fortunate man of science to unravel the mystery that has always hung over the homes of those cliff dwellers?
21841Meaning if this Eugene Warringford keeps his hands off; and nothing else turns up to balk us?
21841Now I wonder what''ll be the next thing on the programme? 21841 Now, what d''ye think of that?"
21841Of the seven head of cattle that have disappeared, you mean, Frank?
21841Old Hank Coombs, perhaps, Frank?
21841Perhaps we''d better douse the glim, then?
21841Perhaps you have n''t had any supper, and would n''t mind taking pot luck with us?
21841Pete Rawlings, the fellow who went with Abajo to round up the missing cattle?
21841Remember the way Old Hank showed us how to toll antelope for a shot, when you ca n''t find cover to get near enough?
21841Right now?
21841Say, do you really believe he knew we were in here?
21841Say, do you think they are up there yet?
21841Say, does n''t that beat everything you ever heard of, Bob?
21841Say, whatever does all this mystery mean, Frank?
21841Say, you do n''t mean to tell me you think Eugene would go that far?
21841Shall we climb up that straggly path along the face of the wall, and see what the old things look like?
21841So Ted managed to round you up in great style; did he? 21841 So you think I''d consent to stay out here tamely, while you two were having a regular circus in there?"
21841So, that''s the way the wind blows, hey?
21841So, that''s the way the wind sets, is it?
21841That looks as if he must be somewhere on the Colorado River, do n''t it?
21841That sounds good to me,Bob remarked;"but how will you do it?"
21841That you saw a Moqui last night, and after we had come to halt right here?
21841That''s all right, Frank; I''ll attend to it,declared Bob;"but why under the sun do you suppose now, that sly old Moqui dodged out like that?"
21841That''s what I want to do; but how can I make sure?
21841Then if we are fortunate enough to find Uncle Felix before that time has expired, what shall we do, sir?
21841Then it is n''t the half- breed?
21841Then the paper interested you, dad, it seems?
21841Then they must have been hiding some place near here, and saw the Moqui pass in?
21841Then we go up, and put a spoke in their wheel, do we?
21841Then we have n''t yet got to the place where the Chinese buyer meets his employer with the eatables?
21841Then what will we do about him?
21841Then when you saw our little fire, you thought we were the kind of steers you wanted to round up?
21841Then you do n''t blame old Uncle Felix for staying, do you?
21841Then you think she did it, do you?
21841There''s somebody talking to our guide right now; and say, Bob, do n''t you recognize the fellow?
21841There''s something wrong, Frank; tell me what it is?
21841Think it''s genuine, Frank?
21841Think we can make Flagstaff by to- morrow night?
21841Think we''ll make it, Frank?
21841This belong to you, Havasupai?
21841This water feels fine after that long, dusty and tiresome ride, eh?
21841Want me?
21841Was he a small man with a bald head, no hair on top, and wearing glasses over his eyes, big, staring glasses?
21841Well, shall we head for that elevation, and see what we can find?
21841Well, what can we do then?
21841Well, what do you think about this?
21841Well, what of that, Frank?
21841Well, who knows what may happen?
21841Well,observed Bob, with a gleam in his eye,"now that we''ve found a way to get up to Echo Cave, have we the nerve to start in?"
21841What ails you, Bob?
21841What are we going to do for a guide when we let him go?
21841What became of that old Moqui Indian?
21841What d''ye think, Frank,he exclaimed, presently;"do n''t you remember promising to share our venison at breakfast with the Moqui?"
21841What did you say?
21841What did you see?
21841What do you think of that slippery customer, Abajo?
21841What does he mean, Frank?
21841What have you done with that old Moqui who came up here ahead of us?
21841What have you found, Frank?
21841What is it, Bob?
21841What is that?
21841What makes you think so?
21841What seems to be the matter with him, Frank?
21841What then?
21841What we want to know is, how you came to get so close to the heels of my horse as to be kicked? 21841 What''s that you say, Frank?"
21841What''s that you say?
21841What''s that? 21841 What''s the row?"
21841What''s this here yer lookin''at? 21841 What''s wrong, Ted?"
21841When the sun is going down in the west, far beyond the horizon, do n''t you see that it can only shine along the very upper part of the cliffs? 21841 When would you want us to make a start?"
21841Where did you get it?
21841Where did you leave Abajo?
21841Where from, and what''s your names?
21841Where under the sun did you run across that fine game? 21841 Who are you talking about, the Moqui?"
21841Who d''ye think it can be; and would a bear or a mountain lion pick up our tracks this way?
21841Who is there at the window?
21841Who was that, Pete?
21841Why do n''t you answer me, Moqui?
21841Why high up? 21841 Why not send us, dad?"
21841Why not to- day, Hank?
21841Why not?
21841Why not?
21841Why yes, to be sure I do; but what of that, Bob?
21841Why, how is that, father?
21841Will we be able to see the game with such a poor light?
21841Will you let me see the note, please?
21841Yes, unless the sly old beast has a back door to her home; how about that, Hank?
21841You can tell from the beat of their horses''hoofs-- is that it?
21841You did?
21841You do n''t suppose now, Frank, that we''ll be bothered to- night?
21841You know we found out before now that he''s got the greatest pair of ears ever for hearing things? 21841 You mean they would n''t be so bold about coming forward?"
21841You mean with the red handkerchief waved over the top of a bush?
21841You seem to be tickled about something, Bob; has that paper any connection with it?
21841After all the hard work which he and Bob had put in to save that precious document for Janice, was it to be lost?
21841And may I inquire concerning the result of your labors in that line?"
21841And now, with night setting in, how far do you think we''ve covered since the start this morning?"
21841And what else did you happen to decide after this wonderful fit of thinking, may I ask, sir?"
21841And you say his name is there, signed to that paper found in the sealed bottle?
21841Another dead calf?
21841Are you on, Bob?"
21841Besides, did n''t you see all those queer little indentations that looked as though they might have been pools away back years ago?"
21841But Frank, how about making the old range call?"
21841But Frank, however in the wide world do you suppose he found out the way to get up there?"
21841But do you know what he means by whooping birds?"
21841But look here, Frank, you do n''t imagine that thing was done on purpose, do you?"
21841But what does it all mean, do you suppose, Frank?"
21841But where does that ragged crevice start from down here, do you think?"
21841CHAPTER II RIDDING THE RANGE OF A PEST"Well, what do you think now, Frank?"
21841CHAPTER VII STANDING BY THE LAW"What had we ought to do?"
21841CHAPTER X THE COPPER COLORED MESSENGER"Do you really mean it, Bob?"
21841CHAPTER XI AT THE GRAND CANYON"Do you mean it?"
21841CHAPTER XII HOW THE LITTLE TRAP WORKED"What do you think of it?"
21841CHAPTER XIII GOING DOWN THE CANYON TRAIL"Was I right?"
21841Ca n''t you imagine that yellow face of the half- breed turning more like saffron then ever when he learns that we played him for a softy?"
21841Charley Moi, what are you doing in the big canyon, tell me?"
21841Could he have wounded himself in any way when he fired his repeating rifle?
21841Could it be possible that they were destined to run across those desperate characters sooner or later?
21841Did they happen to know of any such magnet?
21841Did you ever hear of such luck?
21841Did you sight her, and get a shot?"
21841Do you hear, Professor?"
21841Do you know what that is?"
21841Do you think any bargain has been struck between them?"
21841Do you understand that?"
21841Get that, Bob?"
21841Go easy with me; ca n''t you?"
21841Got it now?
21841Had Bob been unlucky enough to run across one of those aggressive little prairie rattlesnakes after all?
21841Has he a shining top when he takes his hat off; and does he bend over, as if he might be hunting for diamonds all the time?"
21841Have you put him away in some place, the entrance to which is hidden from our eyes?"
21841He turned to the Chinaman, and continued:"Did you happen to notice, Charley, whether this party you are working for is a bald- headed man?
21841How Ah Sin?
21841How about this, Professor?"
21841How did you do it, Bob?"
21841How do you feel about it, Bob?"
21841How?"
21841How?"
21841However do you think he did it, Frank?"
21841I do n''t get on to any reason for your saying that?"
21841Is my father dead?"
21841Is there anything in the world that you value above that document which you know by this time has suddenly increased in value many times over?"
21841It could n''t be replaced, Professor, I imagine?
21841Let me go?
21841Perhaps that may be Eugene''s stopping place; eh, Frank?"
21841Ready, son?"
21841Remember how fortunate it was he turned up when he did, at the time we wanted to follow that plague of the cattle ranges, the wolf, Sallie?
21841Sabe, Flank, Blob?"
21841Sabe?"
21841See here, Charley Moi, could you show me just where you saw this Moqui last?"
21841Shall we call it a go, Frank?"
21841Speak up; where is it?"
21841That will make three against us; wo n''t it, Frank?"
21841The only question now is, how can we get in touch with the hermit of Echo Cave?"
21841The sun is said to be red when its setting; that''s plain enough; is n''t it, Bob?"
21841The yearling was red, you said, Frank?
21841Then he''s still alive?"
21841Then you believe he must have found the presence of those windows looking out of the cliff just like we did; by using a powerful glass?
21841This makes a round half dozen head your father has lost in the last month, does n''t it?"
21841Too far for him to have a rope ladder; and even if he had, how could he reach the place at first?
21841Understand that?"
21841Understand?"
21841Was that a human voice?
21841What do you see, Bob?"
21841What for?"
21841What if it should prove to be a grizzly bear?
21841Where do you suppose we found it, dad, but in the big bunch of rocks that lies about ten miles to the west?"
21841Where have you been to- day?"
21841Why could n''t it have come about when we were on deck?
21841You know how it was when Peg Grant threw his hat in the ring, and tried to find out what made those queer sounds in the heart of Thunder Mountain?"
21841You never heard of such a place, did you, Mr. Hinchman; and you''ve lived on the lower river many years?"
21841You see it now, do n''t you?"
21841You understand all that I am saying, do n''t you?"
21841a messenger from town, was it?"
21841after all we did for him, took him in, and forgave his sins, even to offering to mend any broken ribs, if he''d had any, through that horse kick?
21841did you get on to that, Frank?"
21841did you make out anything with the glasses, Frank?"
21841do you really mean it?"
21841do you then consent to open your mouth, and tell what I want to know?"
21841he added turning to the wondering Celestial,"go back to our camp, and bring our guns right away, both of them, see?"
21841that''s going some, eh, Bob?"
21841then he means that we''re to go into the cave, and get our game-- is that it, Frank?"
21841they do things on a big scale around here; do n''t they?
21841three, you said, Frank; and that would mean Eugene, Spanish Joe, and Abajo, would n''t it?"
21841torture, perhaps?"
21841you saw him enter the hidden stairway, then, and that was how you learned the way to reach these cliff dwellings?"
12997A heavy one?
12997A soft place?
12997Afraid?
12997Ai n''t all tenderfeet, eh?
12997And breakfast?
12997And do you live down there alone?
12997And do--- do we see them?
12997And he did n''t take a chunk out of me to carry away with him?
12997And starve? 12997 Angry with you?"
12997Another trip, eh?
12997Any Indians down there?
12997Any chance of a row?
12997Are n''t we going into the Canyon to stay?
12997Are they bad?
12997Are they ugly?
12997Are you boys hungry?
12997Are you going down, Professor?
12997Brave?
12997But how can you blame me, with the company I keep?
12997But how comes it that this level stretch of fertile land is found in this rugged, rocky canyon, Nance?
12997But we''re going to go after some of them, are n''t we?
12997But where is the Canyon?
12997But why should he want to turn the lion loose?
12997But you''re well, so what''s the odds?
12997But,protested Tad,"is there no way to get it?"
12997By what?
12997Ca n''t?
12997Can no one do anything?
12997Can--- can he get here?
12997Chased by goats?
12997Come in the house, wo n''t you? 12997 Come, who is going to tie those claws together, Stacy?"
12997Could n''t he let down ropes and get us out?
12997Could n''t we have a lion hunt while we are out here?
12997Dead?
12997Deer?
12997Did I?
12997Did n''t think we came over to help you chop wood, did you?
12997Did you ever have a sore lip, Ned?
12997Did you hear anything in the night, Nance?
12997Do I? 12997 Do n''t I?
12997Do n''t blame him for what?
12997Do n''t do that Do n''t you know I have n''t any skin on my body?
12997Do n''t you know what that is?
12997Do n''t you know you''re monkeying with fire? 12997 Do they have ghosts in this canyon?"
12997Do they not sit down with us?
12997Do they work the land?
12997Do we start as soon as we have finished here?
12997Do we take the pack train with us?
12997Do what?
12997Do you know how to handle a pinto, boy?
12997Do you swim?
12997Do you?
12997Do? 12997 Does Mr. Perkins think we had better take our ponies with us?"
12997Does n''t he speak English?
12997Eh? 12997 Find any footprints?"
12997For goodness''sake, what is that?
12997For the love of goodness, what''s the matter, Stacy? 12997 Get him there?
12997Give Ned a chance, ca n''t you, Chunky?
12997Got what?
12997Got what?
12997Has any one ever accomplished it?
12997Has either of you any suggestions to offer?
12997Have n''t you fellows anything to do?
12997Have you engaged them?
12997Have you gone raving mad on the subject of lions?
12997Have you seen any signs of them?
12997He could get right over on our own trail, could he not?
12997He could n''t very well appear in polite society in that rig, could he, Tad?
12997He means,''have we come from the place of the roaring sound?''
12997He''s old enough to-----"To--- what?
12997Hey, Mr. Nance, did you move the cat?
12997How about it, Tad?
12997How about it, Walt?
12997How about it?
12997How about our ponies?
12997How about the pack train?
12997How are we going to sleep?
12997How can he ever make that dizzy climb in his condition?
12997How can you edit it when you did n''t see the affair?
12997How could he? 12997 How did this trail ever get such a name?"
12997How do ye propose to get across that stretch of water there to reach the other side of the horseshoe?
12997How do you feel this fine morning?
12997How do you feel?
12997How do you get down?
12997How do you know a one- legged Indian has been here?
12997How do you know?
12997How do you mean?
12997How do you mean?
12997How far are we from the surface?
12997How far away are they?
12997How far down are you?
12997How long ago?
12997How long have we got to stay cooped up in this half cave?
12997How many persons are there in your tribe, chief?
12997I can do that, but what''s at the bottom?
12997I can thrash the fellow who says I have?
12997I woke up-----"What again?
12997I wonder what he''s after this time?
12997I wonder where the rope and wire are?
12997I--- I guess I did make a fool of myself, did n''t I, Professor?
12997I? 12997 Including the squaws, two hundred and fifty?"
12997Is he drowned?
12997Is he hurt?
12997Is he settled?
12997Is it a land or a rock slide?
12997Is it a--- a man?
12997Is it permitted to hunt them?
12997Is it safe, Nance?
12997Is it safe?
12997Is n''t it time Tad were getting back?
12997Is n''t that fine? 12997 Is n''t there gold down here?"
12997Is that the Wild Man of the Canyon?
12997Is the water deep in there?
12997Is there any danger of the river overflowing on us?
12997Is there any last request that you want me to make to relatives or friends, Tad?
12997Is this as far as we go?
12997Is this place haunted? 12997 Is--- is he all right?"
12997Is--- is it going to rain?
12997Is--- is my rifle lost?
12997It does brace a fellow up to have that--- that--- what do you call it?
12997It does n''t look as if we were going to have any luck, does it, Tad?
12997Job? 12997 Kind and sound, is n''t he?"
12997Li--- li--- lion meat?
12997Lions?
12997Magi back- a- tai- a?
12997May I ask why not?
12997Mr. Nance, if a man were below the horseshoe down the Canyon there, he would be able to make his way over to the Bright Angel Trail, would he not?
12997Mrs. Butler,began Ned, clearing his throat,"we--- we thank you; from the bottom of our hearts we thank you--- don''t we, Stacy?"
12997Ned, will you fetch my saddle and bridle? 12997 Now will you be good, Tad Butler?"
12997Of the Colorado?
12997Oh, I forgot the cookies, did n''t I?
12997Oh, it is, eh?
12997Oh, it''s there, is it?
12997Oh, it''s you?
12997Perhaps you would like to try it yourself?
12997Pity it did n''t fall out the other way and souse a few guides, eh?
12997Rain?
12997Real food?
12997Rope?
12997Safe?
12997Say, what is this meat?
12997Sea--- scalp me?
12997See anything?
12997See the Indians? 12997 Sha n''t I rope him for you?"
12997Shall I take a shot?
12997Shall we give him a big thrashing, or make him run the gauntlet?
12997Smell something, eh?
12997Speaking of checks,said Ned Rector after an interval of silence,"did you bring along that snaffle bit, Tad?"
12997Spirits? 12997 Stick your finger in his mouth and see?"
12997Sure you did n''t throw it over in the bushes down the other side?
12997Surely you do not suspect the man Chow?
12997Swim it? 12997 That means you''ve something ahead--- another trip?"
12997The Grand Canyon of the Colorado?
12997The Grand Canyon of the Colorado?
12997The lion''s bloodstained garments?
12997The one we were going to put on Stacy Brown to hold him in check?
12997The question is what are you going to do with him, now that you have him?
12997The question is, did you fetch down anything to eat?
12997The question is, what''ll we take with us?
12997The question is,said the Professor,"is there nothing that we can do to attract the attention of others?"
12997Then Professor Zepplin is to accompany us?
12997Then that is the explanation of the cause of those up- waves?
12997Then what are we going to do?
12997Then what did you do?
12997Then what shall we do?
12997Then you do n''t mean to tell me that some person or persons liberated him?
12997Up? 12997 Wal?"
12997Warning of what?
12997Was I bluffing? 12997 Was that another of them?"
12997We are prisoners here? 12997 We''d better take the redskin back to camp, had n''t we?"
12997Well, Professor, what do you say?
12997Well, did you find a trail?
12997Well, fellows, is this just a friendly call or have you really something in mind?
12997Well, he made it, did n''t he?
12997Well, how about it?
12997Well, how does it feel to be roasted?
12997Well, what about it, Tad?
12997Well, what about it?
12997Well, what do you think of it?
12997Well, what do you want to know?
12997Well, what''ll I do, if you know so much about it?
12997Well, why have n''t you?
12997Well?
12997Were you bluffing all the time?
12997Wh- what do you want me to do?
12997What about it, gentlemen?
12997What about some light?
12997What about them? 12997 What about yourself?
12997What became of the spook? 12997 What caused their death?"
12997What d''ye say if we call you Whiskers?
12997What did Chunky have for supper?
12997What did happen?
12997What did n''t he have?
12997What did you see?
12997What did you think you heard?
12997What do lions eat?
12997What do you know about it? 12997 What do you take me for, an animal trainer?"
12997What do you think about waiting until daylight for the climb?
12997What do you think of it, Professor?
12997What do you think of that for riding?
12997What for?
12997What happened to you?
12997What happened?
12997What happens to the Navajo?
12997What has happened to him?
12997What have you got, ropes?
12997What is a butte--- how did they happen to be called that?
12997What is going on up there?
12997What is it, Professor?
12997What is it, Professor?
12997What is it? 12997 What is it?
12997What is it?
12997What is it?
12997What is it?
12997What is the matter with the dogs?
12997What is the meaning of this, young man?
12997What is your plan?
12997What kind of a ghost?
12997What made him do that?
12997What shall we do with him now?
12997What shall we do with this redskin?
12997What snaffle bit?
12997What was it?
12997What will get you? 12997 What would you expect to find in a volcano?"
12997What''s happened?
12997What''s off?
12997What''s that you said about spirit meals?
12997What''s that, Indians?
12997What''s that?
12997What''s that?
12997What''s the trouble?
12997What''s your plan, Butler?
12997What, my lion got away?
12997What, snow in June?
12997What, spend another night in this hole?
12997What, with my beloved Canyon to keep me company? 12997 What--- sunrise?"
12997What--- what is it?
12997What?
12997What?
12997What?
12997Whe--- where''s the civilized society? 12997 When shall it be?"
12997When you could n''t have laughed at the funniest story you ever heard?
12997When?
12997Where are the ponies?
12997Where are we?
12997Where are you going to get ropes? 12997 Where away this time, Ned?"
12997Where did I leave off?
12997Where did you drop it?
12997Where did you leave it?
12997Where do we meet the Professor?
12997Where do we wash?
12997Where is Bright Angel Canyon?
12997Where is it? 12997 Where is the Canyon?"
12997Where is the Canyon?
12997Where''d you learn to ride like that?
12997Where''s Stacy?
12997Where''s that rifle?
12997Where, Chunky? 12997 Where?"
12997Where?
12997Where?
12997Which way do we go?
12997Which way?
12997Who is going up first?
12997Who put up this job on me?
12997Who said anything about goats?
12997Who shot him?
12997Who, what, how, where, when?
12997Who?
12997Whose turn is it to get breakfast?
12997Why did n''t you shoot him?
12997Why did you let Brown rope the pinto, then?
12997Why do n''t you live down here, then?
12997Why do n''t you stay in Bright Angel for a while and study ghosts?
12997Why not? 12997 Why not?"
12997Why, what''s the matter?
12997Why, where are we going?
12997Why, you poor little tenderfoot, do n''t you know how that one track got there?
12997Why--- why not?
12997Why?
12997Why?
12997Will he bite?
12997Will it hold?
12997Will not that be a strange experience?
12997Will we get any chance to shoot deer?
12997Will you go down to- day, or will you wait?
12997Will you please tell us where we may find him, pardner?
12997Work?
12997Would n''t that be great, fellows?
12997Yes, but--- but how are we going to get the fellow there?
12997Yes, what d''ye think? 12997 You are used to it, eh?"
12997You have no--- no idea what has become of it--- no theory?
12997You know he has lived among savages lately, and-----"Yes, ma''am, Ned and I have been constant companions for--- how long has it been, boys?
12997You know how a switchback railroad works? 12997 You little idiot, why did you draw any of the stuff in?"
12997You mean it?
12997You start--- when?
12997You want something to eat?
12997A king--- this mountain lion of ours?
12997A shadow, you understand?
12997And by the way, got any apple pie?
12997And what do you think?"
12997Any of you boys ever hear of spirit soup?"
12997Any wild animals down here, Dad?"
12997Are my friends down there hungry?"
12997Are n''t there any vines of which I could make a ladder?"
12997Are you much knocked out?"
12997Be good enough to explain how this trouble arose?"
12997But how had the beast gotten away?
12997But we got him, did n''t we?
12997But what good would that do us?"
12997But what plans has Mr. Perkins made?"
12997Butler?"
12997By the way, where is your gun?"
12997CHAPTER IV A NIGHT IN THE CRATER"What, climb that mountain?"
12997CHAPTER V TAD LENDS HELPING HAND"What is it?
12997CHAPTER VIII THE CITY IN THE SKIES"What has happened now?"
12997CHAPTER XIX THE FAT BOY DOES A GHOST DANCE"A one- legged Indian?"
12997Ca n''t you understand plain English?
12997Can you conceive of such a scene?
12997Could nothing impress Chunky?
12997Did he fly up?"
12997Did you know you knocked over the Medicine Man?"
12997Do n''t I know how to rope anything that ambles on four legs?
12997Do n''t you envy me my fine swim, boys?"
12997Do n''t you see?"
12997Do n''t you think it takes nerve for a fellow to start in to jump off a rock a mile high?
12997Do you forget where you are?
12997Does n''t he know enough to come in out of the wet?"
12997Escape is for the present wholly cut off-----""Ca n''t we climb up a trail lower down?"
12997Ever hear of spirit soup?"
12997Going back into the Canyon?"
12997Has Mr. Perkins decided when we are to start?"
12997Has this fellow ever been ridden?"
12997Have much of a tussle with him?"
12997Have n''t I been riding the toughest critters on the ranges of the Rockies for years and years?
12997Have n''t I got enough to worry me already without being chased by ghosts?
12997Have you anything to eat?"
12997Have you got a streak of yellow in you?"
12997Have you heard the strange voices of Dad''s friend?"
12997He had barrels of the stuff, and-----""How is the chuck made?"
12997He looks as if he might be a Senator, or-----""Any of you boys know where we can find Jim Nance?"
12997He''s going-----""Look here, Chunky, are you telling this or am I?"
12997How about it, Dad?"
12997How could he have untied the wire from the tree?
12997How do you feel, boys?"
12997How is Jennie, Tom?"
12997How many did you fellows get?"
12997How many have you with you?"
12997How''s the weather?"
12997However, we''re pretty safe down here, unless-----""Unless what?"
12997I reckon you are figgering on gitting started to- day?"
12997If you have n''t any nerve, why-----""Nerve?
12997Impossible?"
12997In the second, how could any one slip in here at the right moment and get away with your rifle?"
12997Is n''t that a simple proposition?"
12997Is n''t that it, Dad?"
12997Is that it, Nance?"
12997Is that the hotel, El Tovar Hotel?
12997Mind would n''t be any use to me after I was dead, would it?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nance?"
12997Nerve?"
12997Now does n''t that beat all?"
12997Oh, wo n''t somebody hold me?"
12997Professor, do n''t you think you ought to give Stacy some medicine?"
12997Remember what a tender plant I was when we went out in the Rockies that time?"
12997So long as the chief was not angry, why should he be?
12997That''s your style, is it?"
12997The Canyon is his home---""You mean you live here?"
12997The--- the mountain blew up and-----""Well, are you fellows going to leave me down here all the rest of the night?"
12997Think I want to stay here all night?"
12997Think a fellow would need to bluff when a big chump like you fell in on him?
12997Understand?"
12997Was this another mystery of the Bright Angel Gulch?
12997We just saw him up a tree--- that is, I saw him, and-----""Where were you?"
12997We ought to be able to pick up whatever else we need after we get out there------""I guess that''s all, fellows, is n''t it?"
12997We shall no doubt need some good tough boots for mountain climbing-----""Do we have to climb mountains?"
12997What ails you?
12997What could a mere man hope to do against that demon?"
12997What could it mean?
12997What did he say the name was, Walt?"
12997What did you see?"
12997What do you think of it?"
12997What is it?"
12997What is it?"
12997What is it?"
12997What shall we call you for short?"
12997What spirits?"
12997What''s happened?"
12997What''s the matter with you?
12997What''s wrong with you fellows?"
12997Where are you?
12997Where''s the left?
12997Who is there here to steal it, in the first place?
12997Who would n''t have been?
12997Why not?"
12997Why wo n''t we?"
12997Why''d you make a dead weight of yourself?"
12997Why?"
12997Wo n''t old Dad be surprised when we trail into camp with this big game?"
12997Yes?
12997You are n''t angry with me, are you, Chunky?"
12997You are not afraid of a mountain, are you?"
12997You see those things that look like ditches?"
12997You''d better practise up on those favorite exclamations of yours---""What are they?"
12997Your case demanded instant treatment---""Say, what was that meat we had for dinner, Tad?"
16889A hundred dollars a month for your expenses,said the President, making a memorandum in his notebook,"and what is your time worth?"
16889A little hotter than ever, eh, Abbott? 16889 A rotter, am I?"
16889Abbott, will you telephone Señor Juan Cadiz and ask him to meet me at my house at ten thirty to- night? 16889 After telling us to keep to the right, what did you try to do yourself?
16889After you have finished this work for the President, then what, Diana?
16889Again? 16889 Agnew,"he said,"can you and Jonas manage to let the Ida down, with both Milton and me aboard?"
16889Ai n''t he a grand looking man?
16889Ai n''t that just the usual luck? 16889 Ai n''t they a handsome pair, Na- che?"
16889Ai n''t you going to eat your eggs?
16889All very well, of course,agreed the President,"but what of the big game back of it all-- what''s the means of fighting that?"
16889Am I as bad as that?
16889And after that?
16889And do n''t you appreciate the difference between a home meal like this and one you pick up in Minetta Lane?
16889And how about that deal of ours, Smith?
16889And how many times do you suppose you''ve told me you were willing to change it, Jonas?
16889And if you do interfere,persisted the President,"you realize fully that it will be a nasty fight?"
16889And may I ask what that is?
16889And may I ask, Mr. President, why you asked this gentleman to interfere with my prerogatives?
16889And now, Mr. President, what can I do for you?
16889And now,he said,"I dare not go back to camp without at least discharging my gun, do you?"
16889And shown and explained by her?
16889And what are you? 16889 And what happens, if the star falls?"
16889And when did Mr. Milton break his leg?
16889And who is to be the judge in the matter?
16889And who was Luigi?
16889And why do you consider yourself competent to deal with these problems?
16889And you know now how to end this miserable affair?
16889Any hunting?
16889Any one else there you want to tell me about before the procession begins?
16889Anybody hurt?
16889Anything any of us can do for your comfort, Diana?
16889Anything better there than there was last night?
16889Are any of''em drinking?
16889Are n''t you going to wait to learn what the doctor says about Milton?
16889Are n''t you too tired?
16889Are there snakes round here?
16889Are you all set, Ag and Jonas?
16889Are you cold, Diana? 16889 Are you comin''round to- night, Liz?"
16889Are you game to take to the boats, Jonas?
16889Are you glad you took the trip down the river, Judge?
16889Are you happy, dear?
16889Are you ready, Harden?
16889Are you ready, Matey?
16889Are you still traveling in circles?
16889Are you sure of that?
16889Are you sure you''re right, boss?
16889Are you willing to risk having the story told with the idea of disproving it, afterward? 16889 Aw, what difference does it make?"
16889Begin to cry, as Curly said? 16889 Boss, how would you feel about going to bed?
16889Boss,he said,"do n''t you ever think you ought to marry?"
16889Brown, was Fowler in on the trouble?
16889Business ai n''t been good, eh?
16889But Brown said his lawyers--"Brown''s lawyers? 16889 But do you think I''m a woman hater?"
16889But gee willikums, Judge, what''re we going to do without you?
16889But how come you to think this was rest, boss? 16889 But if she was my mother, how can I help being rotten?"
16889But what would they live on?
16889But why? 16889 But why?"
16889But wo n''t Abbott wire you?
16889Ca n''t I be with you this evening, Frank?
16889Ca n''t love but one boat at a time, eh, Jonas?
16889Ca n''t you stall''em off a little while?
16889Can that kid go all the way to the river?
16889Can you row?
16889Can you stand rotten hard luck without belly- aching?
16889Can you swim, Judge?
16889Can you tell me where I can buy some food?
16889Can you think of any method of persuading him that I am not a political rival, that I merely want to go to the Senate, when I have finished here?
16889Can you?
16889Coming over to- night?
16889Could you go to Mexico for me, in entire secrecy?
16889Curly, are you too tired to continue our last night''s talk?
16889Curly,he said,"is that stuff you have on Fowler and Brown, political, financial, or a matter of personal morals?"
16889Diana, do n''t you feel tired?
16889Diana, do you realize that you made no comment whatever on what I told you yesterday? 16889 Diana, have you seen your friend, the psychologist yet?"
16889Diana, how far are we from the nearest doctor?
16889Diana, what chance would I have of finding my father when you consider what my mother was? 16889 Diana,"said Enoch huskily,"you are going on with your work, as earnestly as ever, are you not?"
16889Diana,said Enoch, under cover of the conversation at the table,"before we start to- morrow, will you give me half an hour alone with you?"
16889Did Brown ever have decency toward a man''s seclusion?
16889Did Curly give you the facts?
16889Did Frank tell you about our talk down here?
16889Did I ever not sit up for you?
16889Did any one ever give you any hints about your father?
16889Did n''t Na- che give you that Navaho charm, Jonas?
16889Did n''t you do your best to undermine me with the President? 16889 Did the Indian Commissioner find work for Miss Allen?"
16889Did you attend the ceremony Na- che sent word to you about?
16889Did you beg Brown to spare me?
16889Did you ever talk to Indians?
16889Did you fellows find any pay gravel, coming down?
16889Did you folks go to sleep when I did?
16889Did you gather that Field''s story had anything to do with the present trouble with Mexico?
16889Did you get a good look at her, Jonas?
16889Did you really?
16889Did you take any other pictures during that period?
16889Discourages you?
16889Do I have to go down the Canyon?
16889Do n''t I know every place you go, boss? 16889 Do n''t I know the mind of my Diana?
16889Do n''t he shake any worse than this?
16889Do n''t you need another man?
16889Do n''t you think you went far enough with that matter before?
16889Do n''t you think, if it''s bad enough to make you cry, that it''s time you told a friend about it, Enoch?
16889Do you know him?
16889Do you know?
16889Do you like me, Enoch?
16889Do you like your mule, Enoch? 16889 Do you love me, Diana?"
16889Do you mean to tell me that a man of Mr. Huntingdon''s reputation and ability, still stoops to that sort of thing?
16889Do you realize,he said, quietly,"that in all the years of my memory no woman has caressed me so?
16889Do you recall that a number of newspapers took occasion then to sneer at government attempts to usurp State and commercial functions?
16889Do you recall the man Armstrong who was here six months ago with ideas on the functions of the Bureau of Education? 16889 Do you remember him?"
16889Do you remember that your mule slipped on the home trail and that I saved your life?
16889Do you suppose he''s had an accident?
16889Do you think I''m a woman hater, Miss Allen?
16889Do you think it will work, Diana?
16889Do you think that Na- che would mind our making free with her name?
16889Do you think that he had anything to do with the publishing of that canard about you, Huntingdon?
16889Do you think you can clear the matter up?
16889Do you think you can handle me the way you have the others? 16889 Do you think you could maybe sleep now, boss?"
16889Do you?
16889Do your needs stop with the Johnstown Lunch?
16889Does it make you sore to have me ask you questions?
16889Does it?
16889Does that suit you, Jonas?
16889Enoch, among the men you know, what is the opinion of a squealer?
16889Enoch, are you a friend of mine?
16889Enoch, shall you let that screed go unchallenged?
16889Enoch, what was there left to say when I could touch your hair and forehead so? 16889 Enoch, why are you breaking down now?"
16889Enoch, will you let me see the diary?
16889Enoch,there was a note of protest in Diana''s voice,"you are n''t going to make love to me on this trip, are you?"
16889Everybody ready to turn in?
16889Foley, let me come round and see him before you send him over the road, will you?
16889For the love of heaven, Diana, where did you folks meet?
16889For the love of heaven, Frank, what have you done to the boy?
16889Forr,said Milton,"do n''t you want to try your luck at some fish for supper?
16889Frank,said Nucky, when breakfast was over,"do you care if I talk to you some more about-- you know-- you know what you said last night?
16889From now on, where?
16889Had a look at it?
16889Hard, you were going to show Curly a placer claim around here, were n''t you?
16889Has he spoken of his mother to you since?
16889Has it ever occurred to you that Brown often picks up Fowler''s policies and quietly pushes them?
16889Has our friendship grown less since we camped at the placer mine?
16889Have Forr and Hard turned up?
16889Have I got to see her?
16889Have you a sound, fair, policy for Idaho water power, that will help Bill Jones in the same proportion that it helps you?
16889Have you a theory about it?
16889Have you folks any objection to our stopping here to make repairs?
16889Have you had enough desert to last you the rest of your life?
16889Have you had your supper yet, boss?
16889Have you told any one the er-- tale?
16889Have you told the President so?
16889He''s an engineer?
16889Hell? 16889 Home, Enoch?
16889Honest, Na- che?
16889Honest?
16889How about a fire?
16889How about the Ida?
16889How about the reporter who''s said to be on my trail?
16889How about the rest of you? 16889 How about this tale of Brown''s?"
16889How are you, Enoch?
16889How are you, Milton?
16889How are you, Nucky?
16889How can I talk if I do n''t turn round? 16889 How come Mr. Harden to think he could find him?"
16889How come it everybody ai n''t down here doing it right now?
16889How come that colored trash to be setting in the parlors of the government, boss?
16889How come you do n''t try to get a little rest, boss?
16889How come you think I''d soil my shadow letting that viper trail it, boss? 16889 How come you to be so hot, boss?"
16889How come you to be so tired to- night, boss?
16889How come you to think she loves him?
16889How could I? 16889 How did you come to do it?"
16889How do you do, Miss Allen?
16889How do you know I have n''t seen them, Jonas?
16889How do you know that?
16889How do you know what''s in your boss''s mind?
16889How do you know?
16889How does the work go?
16889How far is it to the river? 16889 How high do you think that peak is, Milton?"
16889How is he, Jonas?
16889How is it the country at large does n''t know of Fowler''s association with Brown?
16889How long have you and the Judge known each other, Diana?
16889How long will you be out?
16889How many miles have we made by this venture, Milton?
16889How many more have we, Diana?
16889How many''s there now?
16889How much do you love me, dear?
16889How much quarreling did you do?
16889How old were you when she died?
16889How shall we go about it, sir? 16889 How was that?"
16889How''d she go?
16889How''d you ever happen to come out here?
16889How, Enoch?
16889How? 16889 How?"
16889Huntingdon, why are they after Cheney?
16889I ca n''t help folks talking to me, can I?
16889I dined at the Indian Commissioner''s last night and whom do you think I took out? 16889 I dunno, ma''am,"answered Nucky,"Do you enjoy your supper?"
16889I fainted, did n''t I?
16889I suppose the two leading Indian ethnologists are Arkwind and Sherman, of the Smithsonian, are they not, Miss Allen?
16889I wonder how many times,said Milton,"I''ve told you chaps to load the grub half and half between the boats?
16889I wonder if Hard has found Forr, yet?
16889I wonder what uplifter he''s got after me now?
16889If we tie the rope to this pointed rock, I think we can lower ourselves, do n''t you?
16889In the meantime,interrupted Enoch, gruffly,"how about my trip down the Canyon?"
16889Is Abbott gone?
16889Is he a bronco?
16889Is he giving you a decent salary?
16889Is he sick or hurt?
16889Is it a good charm or a hoo- doo?
16889Is it?
16889Is n''t Miss Allen working nearer than eighty miles from here?
16889Is that so?
16889Is that so?
16889Is there anything Dad or I can do to facilitate your start, Enoch?
16889Is there more than one sort?
16889Is there some aspect of my work that interests you?
16889It''s pretty cold for sitting still so long, is n''t Jonas?
16889John an old friend of yours?
16889Jonas, do you know where Miss Diana is stopping?
16889Jonas, get out the grub supply, will you?
16889Jonas, old man, how long have I been eating this fodder for lunch?
16889Jonas, what have your friends to say about your trip?
16889Jonas, what''s the use? 16889 Jonas, you''ll stay and give us a feed, wo n''t you?"
16889Joy? 16889 Judge, are you any good with a gun?"
16889Judge, could n''t you complete the trip with us?
16889Judge, do you think you''ll feel up to starting to- morrow afternoon? 16889 Judge, you wrangle firewood while Mack and I just give this placer idea a ten minutes''trial, will you?"
16889Judge,asked Curly,"how about you and me having our conflab right after dinner?"
16889Judge?
16889Just Smith?
16889Just how much trouble are you going to make about the seal misunderstanding?
16889Just why,Enoch sipped his cup of tea calmly,"did you choose this occasion to tell me of your resentment?"
16889Kin any one do it?
16889Leaving? 16889 Lit out?
16889Look here, Abbott,said Enoch,"if it''s bad, I''ve got to fight it, have n''t I?"
16889Look here, Foley, has n''t he any friends at all?
16889Look here, just how much of a row are you fellows going to make about those mines in the Alaskan border country? 16889 Lucy, how am I to go on, year after year like this, with only my dream of you?
16889MacDougal Street and the dice, I suppose, eh? 16889 Made by this young lady?"
16889May I detain you, a moment, Mr. President? 16889 May I go with you?"
16889Me find you? 16889 Me?
16889Me? 16889 Might be rather serious, might it not, on a trip such as yours?"
16889Miss Allen, will you lunch with me?
16889Miss Allen,he said abruptly,"you saw the article in the Brown papers?"
16889Miss Diana,he said solemnly,"will you give me one of your long hairs?"
16889Mr. Abbott, will you ask the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to come in? 16889 Mr. Cheney,"asked Enoch, when Milton had gone,"do you think you could find out whether or not that fellow Ames has returned from Arizona?"
16889Mr. Curly,said Jonas,"will you let me see that nugget?"
16889Mr. Fowler, why did you break with me?
16889Mr. Milton, have you got anything I can mend the tarpaulins with that go over the decks?
16889Mr. President, ca n''t you make Mr. Huntingdon tell about his vacation?
16889Mr. President, why should n''t Fowler go to the White House? 16889 Mr. Seaton, have you been using bribery?"
16889My Lordy, boss, what''s happened? 16889 My time?
16889No? 16889 No?
16889No?
16889Not my mother?
16889Not the Washington Monument?
16889Now, just what did you do to kill time in the desert, Huntingdon?
16889Now, look here, Enoch, ca n''t I help you out of this scrape?
16889Now, my dear Mr. Secretary, what may we give you?
16889Now,inquired Enoch,"is that tact or superstition?"
16889Oh, and what''s the layer next to it?
16889On a bet?
16889One gets your purpose very clearly, when one recalls your Death and the Navajo, for instance, eh, Huntingdon?
16889Or must n''t I inquire?
16889Or than Field tying a stone to Mamie''s tail to keep her from braying to- night?
16889Orders, eh, Enoch?
16889Please, Judge, are you very cross with me for breaking in on you? 16889 Say, Ag, would you want our boat renamed the Na- che?"
16889Say, Mr. Milton, you know what I was thinking? 16889 Say, Mr. Seaton, ca n''t we stay one more day and you take the trip with us?"
16889Scared as ever, Jonas?
16889Shall I go ahead on the lines indicated?
16889Shall I help you with''em? 16889 Shall I unpack for you?"
16889Shall we try the descent now, Milton?
16889Shall you come to Washington this winter, Diana?
16889Shall you reveal your identity before you leave them?
16889So he was a gambler, was he?
16889So he''s a crook, is he? 16889 So you found your bad charge, old man, did n''t you?"
16889So you would swallow an insult and smile?
16889Some leader, I am, eh?
16889Some one left you some money?
16889Sounds rotten, huh?
16889Starlight and you and Na- che''s little song,murmured Enoch;"I am hard to satisfy, am I not?"
16889Suppose that he openly ties to Brown, Huntingdon?
16889Sweetheart,he whispered,"what have I done?"
16889That is all very well, Miss Allen, but what if you die, before you have finished? 16889 That you, Jonas?
16889That you, Miss Allen? 16889 The what?"
16889Then why ask foolish questions?
16889Then why make foolish comments?
16889Then will you agree not to go back until you have talked to me again?
16889Then,said Enoch,"will you take Jonas along as cook, Mack?"
16889There is no great hurry, is there? 16889 There is nothing personal between you?"
16889Tired? 16889 To see Injun villages?"
16889Try what?
16889Understand what?
16889Was I to go to tea at Madame Foret''s this afternoon, Abbott?
16889Was it really harder, Abbott, or was it this frightful weather?
16889Was it so much harder than the work you are doing?
16889Was she my mother?
16889Was that any queerer sight than Just Smith chasing Pablo this morning?
16889We are friends, Fowler, are we not?
16889Well, Enoch, old man, are you glad to go?
16889Well, Enoch?
16889Well, Judge, is your little vacation giving you the rest you wanted?
16889Well, Mr. Cheney, have you made your discovery?
16889Well, and where does your princely salary permit you to live?
16889Well, boys, shall we move?
16889Well, can you beat that?
16889Well, does to- morrow see us at the Ferry?
16889Well, gentlemen, what can I do for you?
16889Well, how come you to think I could n''t take''em, woman? 16889 Well, then, without an expedition?"
16889Were these experienced oil men?
16889What are we all going to do now, with just one boat?
16889What are you trying to do, ruin my reputation with Just Smith here? 16889 What attitude does Mr. Fowler take in this?"
16889What becomes of the work?
16889What came of it?
16889What changed your luck, Jonas?
16889What did she look like? 16889 What did you say to him when he told you that?"
16889What did you think of it?
16889What difference does that make? 16889 What do I do next?"
16889What do you fellows think?
16889What do you hear from Fowler?
16889What do you think of Havisham as presidential material?
16889What do you want it for, Jonas?
16889What do you want to divulge your cold- heartedness for? 16889 What do you want?"
16889What does Watkins call your job?
16889What else?
16889What fool ever sent you folks out?
16889What gave you the idea to begin with?
16889What happens if one does n''t leave when requested?
16889What in time are you trying to do on the river, anyhow?
16889What is it, Abbott?
16889What is it, Jonas?
16889What kind of camp is this?
16889What kind of grub?
16889What kind of people did you know in Germany?
16889What luck with the Ida?
16889What luck, Judge?
16889What name, for instance?
16889What of it? 16889 What on earth possesses you to do it?
16889What on earth--?
16889What part of the government do you work for?
16889What solitary trip was Wee- tah undertaking?
16889What sort of timber are you developing among your field men, Cheney?
16889What the deuce happened?
16889What was the luck to- day, boys?
16889What was the queerest thing you''ve ever seen in the desert, Mack?
16889What was the rip this time?
16889What went wrong, bud? 16889 What would you do with it, if you had it, Curly?"
16889What would you have done if I had n''t come along and taken pity on you? 16889 What would you say, Miss Allen, if I tell you that I had to force this fellow into going to see your wonderful pictures?"
16889What you want?
16889What''re you doing, you clumsy dub foot?
16889What''s Field sore about?
16889What''s happened, Abbott?
16889What''s happened, Jonas?
16889What''s happened, boss?
16889What''s he doin''off his beat?
16889What''s the cause of it?
16889What''s the difficulty?
16889What''s the effect of that draught?
16889What''s the excitement, Frank?
16889What''s the idea?
16889What''s the matter with you? 16889 What''s the matter with your knee, boss?"
16889What''s the nearest help by way of land?
16889What''s the story, Curly?
16889What''s the trouble, Fowler?
16889What''s troubling you, woman?
16889What''s up, Jonas?
16889What''s your program, Diana?
16889What''s yours?
16889When could you begin, you two?
16889When did she return to Washington?
16889When you want''em?
16889Where are they?
16889Where are you going, Jonas?
16889Where did you come from?
16889Where do I go to- night, Jonas?
16889Where does that trail lead?
16889Where on earth did you come from? 16889 Where the devil did you find that?"
16889Where you come from?
16889Where you going?
16889Where''d that mattress come from?
16889Where''d you get it?
16889Where''s Forrester?
16889Where''s that Na- che?
16889Who has taught you?
16889Who is after him?
16889Who is wanted? 16889 Who said draw- poker?"
16889Who were your folks, Enoch?
16889Who''d be surprising me, Jonas? 16889 Who''d repaint the name?"
16889Whom do you want to see in New York, Enoch?
16889Whose quail are these, I''d like to know?
16889Why did n''t you go where there was some real sport?
16889Why did you dream of a wild trip down the Colorado as the realization of your greatest desire?
16889Why do n''t you look out for your own kids and let me alone?
16889Why do n''t you people have him taken away from the Italian and a proper guardian appointed?
16889Why do n''t you use''em?
16889Why indeed?
16889Why is the President in such a hurry to see me, Abbott?
16889Why not include the mental training? 16889 Why not the truth?"
16889Why should I forget it?
16889Why should you think that?
16889Why stay down here, like lost dogs, when there''s a first class hotel back up there?
16889Why the Indian Bureau?
16889Why, are you two old friends?
16889Why, how''d she happen to wire you, Jonas?
16889Why, of course?
16889Why?
16889Why?
16889Why?
16889Why?
16889Why?
16889Why?
16889Will the snow make Bright Angel too difficult for you, Frank?
16889Will you agree, Brown, to an absolute break with Fowler and no come backs?
16889Will you come to me as soon as you have finished, to- morrow, Enoch?
16889Will you dictate a few moments on your report to the President on the Pension controversy?
16889Will you go with me to take another look at it?
16889Will you let me work my passage as far as Bright Angel?
16889With good luck, and no Survey work, how many days are we from the Ferry?
16889Would n''t it be better to keep Milton right here and one of us go for the doctor?
16889Would n''t you know she''d take it that way? 16889 Would you be interested in looking at some photographs of Indian life?"
16889Would you? 16889 Yes, I know, but is that the only reason?"
16889Yes? 16889 Yes?"
16889Yet you told Lucy them, did n''t you?
16889You are agreed that it shall be war between us, then?
16889You are n''t going to give it up now, are you, Mack?
16889You are sure as to your facts about this bandit leader?
16889You came to see me for that, sir?
16889You feel sick from the saddle, eh, Jonas?
16889You got ta da rent money, Nucky?
16889You have n''t gone crazy, have you, Judge?
16889You heard what he said to me?
16889You like Jonas, do n''t you, Na- che?
16889You like a cup of coffee? 16889 You mean for the country, do you not, sir?"
16889You mean for the country, do you not?
16889You mean to say you pick up gold like that, down here?
16889You mean,Diana spoke quickly,"that I ought to have stayed with my father?"
16889You saw last night''s papers?
16889You saw who his side pardner was, did n''t you?
16889You sell me a horse?
16889You''ll really try to look out for Mr. Seaton, wo n''t you, Enoch?
16889You''ll stick around for a little while, wo n''t you, Diana?
16889You''re a Pueblo Indian?
16889You''re a regular tough, eh, Enoch? 16889 You''re not hinting that I ought to reimburse you, are you?"
168891.--Congress again, eh, Lucy?
16889A ten o''clock start will be early enough, wo n''t it?
16889Abbott, will you show the President out?"
16889Abbott?"
16889After a moment, she said,"Then you are going to shoot Brown?"
16889After the introduction had been made, Enoch said:"Watkins, do you know anything about Indians?"
16889Ai n''t you got any heart?"
16889Am I not right, Agnew and Jonas?"
16889And Curly laughed at me and asked me what mercy Fowler had shown his brother?
16889And Jonas said,''Boss, how come you to do a stunt like this?
16889And did you know that Seaton thinks you were kidnapped?"
16889And now tell me, Diana, just what are your plans?"
16889And what are your plans?"
16889And yet you were a very successful Commissioner, were you not?"
16889And-- and, Mr. Seaton, would you sit with me till I get to sleep?"
16889Any other accident?"
16889Anything good in sight?"
16889Are n''t they a fine lot of fellows?
16889Are n''t you ashamed?"
16889Are n''t you off your beat?"
16889Are n''t you proud of me?
16889Are you a little bit glad, Diana?"
16889Are you cold?
16889Are you going to stay with us a little while?"
16889Are you going to try it?"
16889Are you having a good holiday?"
16889Are you positive that these men do n''t know you?"
16889Are you tired?"
16889Are you washed up?"
16889At last, as the pudding was being served, she exclaimed:"What in the world are you watching for, Enoch?
16889Been down Bright Angel yet?"
16889Boss, do you remember the night he took me out to see that desert charm?"
16889Boss, what you trying to do?"
16889But Enoch silenced the others by saying with great earnestness:"Milton, you know I''m right, do n''t you?"
16889But why should Germany do so?"
16889But, excepting on cabinet days, why meet at all?"
16889By that time, I ought to know something about Enoch, eh?"
16889By the eternal, Senator, ca n''t you fellows leave one department clear of the spoils system?
16889By the way, have you seen Jonas?"
16889By the way, what did you think of Miss Allen yesterday?"
16889By the way, will you sell me those boots of yours?
16889By what principles do you think a man ought to be guided?
16889CHAPTER XI THE PERFECT ADVENTURE"Who cares whether or not my hands are clean?
16889Can you come about three, if that suits Abbott''s schedule?"
16889Can you remember?"
16889Cheney?"
16889Cheney?"
16889Cheney?"
16889Could you come to me here?
16889Could you leave next week for a speaking trip?"
16889Curly?"
16889Diana, can you play poker?"
16889Did Field speak of the child?"
16889Did Frank ever do any mining?
16889Did any one ever climb up the side of the Canyon, say like one yonder where it looked like different colored stair steps going up?
16889Did any one ever find gold in the canyon?
16889Did any one ever swim across the river?
16889Did he want to go to reform school?"
16889Did n''t I tell you Injun charms was strong?
16889Did n''t the story of Lucy seem wonderful to you?"
16889Did n''t you tell me that was my job, years ago?
16889Did you eat the rest raw?"
16889Did you ever ride, before?"
16889Did you find any pieces of the Na- che?"
16889Did you know that your friend Cadiz is the greatest living authority on Aztec worship and a hectic fan for bullfighting as a national sport?
16889Did you see me jerk her round?"
16889Did you see the pictures, Huntingdon?"
16889Do I look a tenderfoot?
16889Do many kids take it?"
16889Do n''t I see her kiss that little picture she has of him in her locket every night when she says her prayers?"
16889Do n''t we go, too, boss?"
16889Do n''t you like these little love pats?''
16889Do we have any steeper trails than the ones we''ve been on, already?
16889Do you dislike me so much as that?
16889Do you expect us to rob you, or what?"
16889Do you find much game round here?"
16889Do you know that I can make serious legal trouble for you for your part in libelling me and the Department?"
16889Do you know what I thought to- night after I left the British Ambassador?
16889Do you know what I''d do if I was taken suddenly rich?
16889Do you like little girls?"
16889Do you like men?"
16889Do you like the boy, Frank?"
16889Do you like the work, Milton?"
16889Do you recall drinking water the other men did n''t?"
16889Do you remember?"
16889Do you see what I''m driving at?"
16889Do you think Brown''s lawyers will fight for you now?"
16889Do you think that the underlying purpose of life is dog eat dog, every man for himself, by whatever method?
16889Do you think you can clear the matter up for him?"
16889Do you want to go to reform school?"
16889Does God?
16889Does he ever play?"
16889Does n''t she, Frank?"
16889Eh?"
16889Else why disease and grief in the world?
16889Enoch and the Indian shook hands gravely, and Diana said,"Ca n''t you take supper with us, Wee- tah?"
16889Enoch greeted him cordially, and after a few generalities said,"Mr. Cheney, what bomb are they preparing to explode now?"
16889Enoch laughed, then said seriously:"What''s the idea, Mr. Cheney?
16889Enoch went up the steps with Diana, however, and asked her tensely:"Will you lunch with me to- morrow, Miss Allen, that I may explain myself?"
16889Enoch, did you ever try to trace your father?"
16889Enoch, have you never talked your case over with a psychologist?"
16889Enoch, what started you in politics?"
16889Ever on a college crew, Judge?"
16889For a moment no one spoke, then Na- che, her round brown face wrinkled with amusement, said,"Almost no Na- che, no Diana, no Judge, eh?"
16889Fourteen to thirty- six, is n''t it?"
16889God is mercilessly just, is He not?
16889God, Diana, do you think we are machines to be driven at will?"
16889Going down to- morrow with Miss Planer?"
16889Going some, for Minetta Lane, eh?
16889Harden?"
16889Have I delivered the goods, or not?"
16889Have n''t died, have you?
16889Have you a general route planned?"
16889Have you a theory?"
16889Have you been sleeping well?
16889Have you?"
16889He paused, eying Nucky''s boyish face closely, then he asked,"Did you love your mother?"
16889He was thinking of the expression that would appear on Curly''s face if he learned into whose hands he was putting his dynamite?
16889He whispered again,"Diana, what have I done?"
16889Hello, Jonas, what can I do for you?"
16889How about Brown?"
16889How about it, Milton?"
16889How about it, Milton?"
16889How about you, Jonas?"
16889How am I to do my work like a man, with only half a man''s life to live?
16889How come everybody thinks she''s so beautiful, boss?"
16889How come he do n''t do''em hisself?"
16889How come you ai n''t been, Boss?"
16889How come you stayed so late?"
16889How come you suppose I do n''t know women, huh?
16889How come you think I ca n''t tell this story?
16889How come you think I like to see a smart man like you living on baby food?"
16889How come you think I''d forget?"
16889How come you think you got iron insides?"
16889How come you think you kin talk to him when even I do n''t dast to?"
16889How come you to think I could do anything to surprise you?"
16889How come you to think you can sass a Washington man, huh, a government man, huh?
16889How come you to try to insult the boss''and my house, Mr. Milton?
16889How did Jonas find you?"
16889How did they know it when they found it?
16889How else could he have been led in all the wide desert to find this man who held Brown''s future in his hands?
16889How long did it take you to make that collection of photographs?"
16889How long do you suppose such a trip would take?"
16889How long have you been out?"
16889How long would it take you to complete the entire collection you have in mind?"
16889How many of us are there who''ve not committed sins that we never forgive ourselves?"
16889How much did that tender- foot weigh that rode him?"
16889How much does it cost?
16889How much you pay for grub?"
16889How old is the boy?"
16889How would that do?"
16889How would you like an appointment as a special investigator?"
16889How''s Milton?
16889How''s your Dad?"
16889Huntingdon?"
16889Huntingdon?"
16889Huntingdon?"
16889Huntingdon?"
16889Huntingdon?"
16889I guess he''d know, would n''t he?"
16889I say, why not let me kill him?
16889I wonder if you know that he has been dead for twenty years and that his devoted wife survived him only by a year?
16889If one of the men arrested at that time had broken down, you''d all have despised him, I suppose?"
16889If they discovered what Miss Allen did for us all at the Ferry, how she led me back to El Tovar, what would they do with it?"
16889If you have the time, sir, will you permit me to go over the whole miserable story?"
16889Is human nature normally and habitually corrupt when it comes to governing a city?
16889Is n''t your system of scandal mongering built on the idea that mud once slung always leaves a stain in the public mind?
16889Is that dawn breaking yonder?"
16889Is that the best you two can do on shoes?
16889Is there any one in the waiting- room?"
16889Is this your first trip east?"
16889Is to- day a fair sample of every day, you fellows?"
16889Is your championing them worth the risk to Miss Allen?"
16889Is your knee bothering you, Judge?"
16889Jokes aside, you know my keen interest in Indian ethnology?"
16889Jonas gave Curly and Mack a withering glance, started to speak, swallowed something and said,"How come you to think you was a butcher, boss?
16889Jonas, how about grub for the Judge?"
16889Jonas, how long since I''ve had a vacation?"
16889Just where was you aiming for?"
16889Late this afternoon, at the French Ambassador''s?
16889Lucy, ca n''t city governments be clean?
16889Mack, when shall we move?"
16889Mid- morning on the third day, after several hours of silent trekking, Curly turned in his saddle:"Just, have you noticed the mirage?"
16889Milton grunted and Diana said, quickly,"What are you people going to do until Mr. Milton gets well?"
16889Milton?"
16889Milton?"
16889Milton?"
16889Miss Allen, when shall you go back to the Canyon?"
16889Miss Allen, will you not share your great good fortune with my friend and me?"
16889Mr. Huntingdon, how am I ever going to thank you?"
16889Mr. Milton, can I have the broken oar blade we kept to patch the Ida with?"
16889Mr. Milton, is there anything Na- che or I can do for you?"
16889Mr. Seaton, is that true?"
16889Mr. Secretary, ca n''t something be done to shut him off?"
16889Need any help on those dishes, Jonas, before I go to bed?"
16889Now just why do you hate us?"
16889Now will you let me make an appointment for you with the Secretary of State?
16889Now?
16889Or do you think we''re put here to make life better than we found it?
16889Or do you want to go up to the hotel?"
16889Ought I to hobble him or stake him out?"
16889Please, why did n''t you intend to come to my exhibition?"
16889President?"
16889President?"
16889President?"
16889Public service?
16889Rather a lighter day than yesterday, eh?"
16889Reeves?"
16889Rotherick?"
16889Seaton?"
16889Seaton?"
16889Secretary?"
16889Secretary?"
16889Secretary?"
16889Secretary?"
16889See that lone pine up on the rim to your right?
16889See?"
16889See?"
16889Shall I come in and speak to you, at that time?"
16889Shall I get in touch with the White House?"
16889Shall I get the horses?
16889Shall I never be able to bury Minetta Lane?"
16889Shall we go after those letters?"
16889Shall we launch the good ship Ida, fellows?"
16889Sit down, wo n''t you?"
16889Smith?"
16889So if we do n''t get on together, it''s understood you''ll turn back, eh?"
16889So neglect Mexico and Alaska for a little while, tomorrow, will you, Huntingdon?"
16889Sob stuff?"
16889Some trip, eh?"
16889Sure you are n''t hurt any?"
16889Take a hand, Judge and Hard?"
16889That''s a wonderful name of yours, do you realize it?"
16889The Senator puffed silently, then said,"Why does Brown hate you?"
16889Then Enoch said in a low voice:"Do you have trouble with Forrester and Harden?"
16889Then he said quietly:"Will you tell me where I can find Jonas, Diana?"
16889Then she said,"Are n''t you going to tell me some of the details of your trip?"
16889Then the President said,"Enoch, how are you going to handle Brown?"
16889Then with a quick, direct look, he asked,"Did your father, ever give you the details of his experience with me in the Canyon?"
16889Then, with one eyebrow raised, he grunted,"What''d you work at?"
16889There was a moment''s silence, then Enoch went on,"Shall you carry on your work with the Indians alone as you always have done?
16889There was silence for a moment, then the President went on:"What are you going to do to Brown, Huntingdon?"
16889Think seriously of a speaking tour, wo n''t you?"
16889This is n''t your camp?"
16889Understand me?"
16889Want a look at him?"
16889Want to come along, Enoch?"
16889Want to try it, Enoch?"
16889Was Nucky laying some deep scheme for mischief when they reached San Francisco?
16889Was Roland glad he made his adventure in search of the Dark Tower?"
16889Was any one ever killed when he minded what the guide told him?
16889Was there more than one article about me?"
16889Washington is difficult to endure, in the summer, is n''t it?
16889Well, I think you''d better plan-- come up here, will you, at once?
16889Well, what do you think now?"
16889Were you ever in New York, Frank?"
16889Were you looking for a cheap lunch?"
16889What about those who stay?"
16889What assurance are you going to give me that you will keep your mouth shut as to what you''ve heard this afternoon?"
16889What can I do for Arkansas, Senator?"
16889What can I say?"
16889What can all the admiring plaudits mean to me when I know that you are only a dream, only a dream?"
16889What could be a stronger reason for being for the Geological Survey than to find and show the public the resources of the public lands?
16889What do you mean, stoop?
16889What do you say to a return for lunch, Judge?"
16889What do you think I am?"
16889What do you think life is for?
16889What do you think of that?"
16889What do you think of this parlor, bedroom and bath?"
16889What do you women folks know about how a strong man like him fights Satan?
16889What explanation shall we make them?"
16889What guys camp in the Indian gardens?
16889What happens first, Abbott?"
16889What in the world was he to do with the young gambler in San Francisco, that paradise of gamblers?
16889What in thunder are you angry about?
16889What is he, Diana, a member of the Supreme Bench?"
16889What is the use?
16889What makes him so ugly?
16889What medium could one use to tell the world of that?"
16889What more useful and direct thing could I do than rid the nation of him?
16889What nerve does it take to stack the cards against a dub?
16889What school does Abbott represent?"
16889What sort of joy?"
16889What was placer mining?"
16889What would you do about it, Judge?"
16889What your name?"
16889What''re you going to do with the Canyon?"
16889What''s doin''?"
16889What''s doin''with you?"
16889What''s the matter?"
16889What''s the use?"
16889What''s the use?"
16889What''s wanted?"
16889What''s yours?"
16889When are you going to take your vacation?"
16889When do you start, John dear?"
16889Where can I reach you?"
16889Where did you go?"
16889Where had he been?
16889Where on earth did it come from?"
16889Where''s your home?"
16889Where''s your nerve?"
16889Where''ve you been?
16889Where, Jonas?"
16889Which way are you folks going?"
16889While these chaps play, will you take a walk with me?"
16889Who cares whether you play cards or not?
16889Who is waiting this morning?"
16889Who on earth but you cares what I do?
16889Who told you she was bad?"
16889Who''s going to develop the water power in our Idaho streams?"
16889Why ca n''t we climb to the top of the butte for a little while?
16889Why did n''t you want to see my pictures?"
16889Why do n''t you lie down and rest both mind and body until supper''s ready?
16889Why do n''t you take him out of the field and begin to groom him for your job, Mr. Cheney?
16889Why do n''t you try that, kid?
16889Why do you have to get sore every time I speak to you?"
16889Why in the name of all the fiends in Hades do you suppose nothing relieves me in moments of great mental stress but gambling?
16889Why not let the states manage the water and land problems?"
16889Why not save the papers till morning and try to sleep now?"
16889Why not?
16889Why not?"
16889Why ruin your own life in the effort to punish a man for something that''s better forgotten?"
16889Why should decent citizens live in fear of his dirty newsmongers?
16889Why should n''t Canada take that trouble on?"
16889Why should neighbors hate each other?
16889Why?"
16889Will you express my regrets to the Argentine delegation and make a new appointment?
16889Will you folks be home by twelve for dinner?"
16889Will you go up to the hotel and arrange for transportation out of here tonight?
16889Will you let him have a moment?"
16889Will you let me know facts as you turn them up?"
16889Will you make arrangements with Mr. Abbott for a longer conference, to- morrow?
16889Will you not dine with me to- morrow, or rather, this evening, at the Ashton, at eight o''clock?
16889Will you run through this correspondence, Mr. Huntingdon, before I call in the Idaho contingent?"
16889Will you take a ride along the rim now?
16889Wo n''t you wait a day longer, just till we''re a little more fit?"
16889Would n''t God expect me to punish evil?
16889Would you leave me in your fix, thinking you might bring help back?"
16889Yet, I am not convinced that he would not make a far more able chief executive than I?"
16889Yet, do you know, when she insisted that I turn Catholic, I would n''t do it?
16889You are n''t afraid to get up and dress, are you?"
16889You are not going away, are you?"
16889You ca n''t see Him or talk to Him, but you know He made this Canyon, do n''t you?"
16889You gambling, indecent little gutter snipe, is n''t there a clean spot in you?"
16889You know that joint on Sixth Avenue where I go and play cards once in a while?
16889You know what I mean, do n''t you?
16889You mean what would I charge somebody for doing this work?
16889You notice, do n''t you, that I talk to you of Minetta Lane only when something tremendous, either good or bad, has happened to me?
16889You realize that, do you?"
16889You remember him, Lucy?
16889You see that, do n''t you?"
16889You''re planning to stay in Washington, are you, Miss Allen?"
16889and where''s the rest of the bunch?"
16889at cards?"
16889exclaimed Diana, then as she shook hands, she added:"Where are you going so fast, Wee- tah?"
16889he exclaimed, when she came out,"are n''t you going to talk to me even?
16889sniffed Curly,"that is n''t saying anything, is it, Judge?"
16889urged the Indian woman, sadly,"Why should things be so wrong?
16889will be all out if you do that?"
16889with a look of repugnance that caused Milton to exclaim,"Got conscientious scruples against cards, Judge?"
