40254he exclaimed gaily,"how is the old''bus''to- night?
40254they demanded, both in the same breath,"who sent that telegram, do you know?"
30969A wire, did you say, Josh?
30969And if they follow suit, then what?
30969And that means you think we should be getting a move on too?
30969And then?
30969And what did Joffre do then?
30969But not to go as far as Boulogne, eh, Rod?
30969But that''d be going a whole lot, just to satisfy your curiosity, would n''t it?
30969But we all heard the groans, did n''t we?
30969But what did Josh do to the car, Rod?
30969But what object could he have in view?
30969But what possessed you three adventurous boys to wish to come once more to the scene of battle and carnage? 30969 But what was the paper you read, Rod?"
30969But why all this row over just one contemptible little ford?
30969By the way,Hanky Panky continued,"what was the lieutenant telling you all the time he kept on talking, Rod?"
30969Can they ever do it?
30969Did n''t I tell you so?
30969Do we get into our saddles again now, Rod?
30969Do you mean Andre?
30969Do you mean with regard to the regiment we''re on the track of?
30969Had n''t we ought to go faster, Rod?
30969He''s eating his words, Hanky, do n''t you see?
30969How about you, Hanky?
30969I did n''t hear anything,said Hanky Panky, looking worried all the same;"what did it sound like, Josh?"
30969I did n''t say anything like that, did I?
30969I wonder whatever became of the people who lived here?
30969I''d like you to tell us just how you know that?
30969I''ve noticed you talking with a number of men besides our surgeon friend, Rod; have you picked up any sort of information that''d be of use to us?
30969Is he dead, then?
30969It''s a French field hospital, is n''t it, Rod?
30969Josh, can you hear me?
30969Look at him leaning low over his handlebars, will you?
30969Looks like we might be between two fires,said Josh, frowning savagely;"what can we do about it, Rod?"
30969Looky there, will you, Rod?
30969Meaning you''ve struck a clue about the regiment to which Andre belongs-- is that what it is?
30969Nothing serious, I hope, Josh?
30969Now what, Rod?
30969On the tires, do you mean, Josh?
30969Pardon me, Colonel, but may I ask why we have been waylaid and taken in charge?
30969Rod here says you must have jammed his self- starter so it would n''t work when he tried it; how about that, Josh?
30969Rod, what do you reckon that madman means to try and do?
30969See how the men take their caps off, will you?
30969Shall we let them come up, and have it out?
30969Then you are an American, too?
30969Then you expect to leave Oscar here, do you, Rod?
30969Then you really do n''t believe they did poison it, Rod?
30969Then you think they must be the Germans come after us, do you, Rob?
30969Was it Jules, do you reckon?
30969Was that_ all_ you saw or heard, Josh?
30969Well, tell me how he expects to get rid of the same?
30969What are they saying, Rod?
30969What are they waiting for, do you think, Rod?
30969What are they yelling about, Rod?
30969What are we going to do next, Rod?
30969What d''ye think of it, Rod?
30969What did you do, then?
30969What do you say, Josh?
30969What do you want to communicate?
30969What is the news from the front?
30969What makes you ask that, Josh?
30969What then?
30969What''s happened next, Rod?
30969What''s that?
30969What''s the matter now?
30969What''s the use?
30969What''s this I see ahead there, boys? 30969 When do you expect to start for the front?"
30969Why do n''t you give them a shot, Rod?
30969Why, ca n''t you see what it means to both sides to control a crossing where the artillery can get over without building a bridge?
30969Will they give up trying to cross over now?
30969Would that be safe?
30969Yes, what is it, Josh?
30969Yes; has her landlord threatened to turn her out unless she can pay the rent, and ought we put up our spare cash to help settle the bill?
30969You are English, then?
30969You do n''t believe for a single minute, do you, Rod, that he really saw anybody trying to send signals to the enemy? 30969 You mean the one with the dog team, and the tall, brass- mounted milk cans, do n''t you, Hanky Panky?"
30969A thousand men might be sacrificed in this endeavor, but what of that?
30969And the men in the river, what of them?
30969Are you both game to try for it?"
30969But Rod, do we have to stay right here, and do our looking?"
30969But how could it be done?
30969But if they do try to smash their way in we''re going to fight; hear that?"
30969But we must be near Calais, do n''t you think, Rod?"
30969Can you lead us to the place where the man is hiding, and is it possible to get close to him without his knowing about our being there?"
30969Could the pretended Swiss- American be in truth a German spy, bent on taking them prisoner for some mysterious reason or other?
30969Do you think you can move your machine along and attend to him at the same time, Rod?"
30969How about that same, Rob; you ought to know what they look like?"
30969How long could they hold the aggressors in check?
30969However did you manage to do it?"
30969I spoke too soon, did n''t I?"
30969I wonder what it all means; can you give a guess, Rod?"
30969It is hardly a fit place for lads of your age, I should think?"
30969It was all a set- up game, was n''t it?"
30969Listen to how the guns keep up that whoop, will you?
30969Listen to that, will you; is n''t it just fierce the way he keeps going on, though?"
30969Now, what do you think of that?"
30969Quite a difference between that name and Oscar William Tell, eh?
30969Rod, ca n''t we push right along?"
30969Rod, do n''t you think we might push on a little nearer the firing line?"
30969Rod, we''re going to watch a fight in the sky, do n''t you see?
30969Rod, you have a dip, since Hanky feels nervous about it, wo n''t you?"
30969Say, Rod, you can speak French right well; what''s to hinder our finding out what the matter is?
30969Understand?"
30969Was this just what those cool, calculating German gunners were waiting for?
30969What could there be wrong with this water?"
30969What if it were all a part of a deep- laid scheme calculated to delay them, for some dark purpose or other?
30969What then?
30969What''ll we do now, Rod?"
30969Where is your camp, may I ask, fellows?"
30969Where were they to secure anything to eat in the midst of all this turmoil and confusion?
30969Why not make him a hostage for the good behavior of his associates?
30969Would one of the men come out unexpectedly, and catch him busy with the car?
30969Would the man they believed to be the plotting Jules stop, and with his assistant rush into the house to look for the missing boy?
30969called out Hanky Panky;"and the other-- why, see how queer that machine is acting, will you?
30969cried Josh, able to grasp the amazing fact, even if much that the general had said was as Greek to him;"now what do you think of that, Hanky Panky?"
30969did you hear that?"
30969ejaculated the impulsive Josh immediately,"that would mean trouble with a big T, would n''t it, Rod?"
30969he besought the leader;"I know you''re only holding in on account of me, but forget that, wo n''t you?"
30969he managed to cry indignantly as he broke away from the other''s detaining clutch;"what do you take me for anyway?
30969me?"
30969my stars, do we have to run smack into that hospital business, when often the sight of blood gives me the creeps, and makes my knees wobble?"
30969said Josh,"and listen to the fellows send back an answering cheer, will you?
30969see that, would you?"
30969see what''s going to happen now, will you, fellows?"
30969shouted Josh, eagerly, pointing as he spoke;"look at the French batteries wheeling into position, would you?
30969what was that?"
30969what''re we going to do about it, Rod, tell me?
30969what''s the use of all that, Rod?"
30969what''s up, Josh?"
46257Am I in a trance? 46257 Are you hurt?"
46257Aw, what''s the use of chewin''the rag with a lot o''kids, anyhow?
46257Belong to you, eh? 46257 Ca n''t ye guess what onnery limb put this up on me?"
46257Can you blame him for that?
46257Chance?
46257Did he have a horse with him, besides the burro?
46257Did you an''Chub do the trick? 46257 Did you do_ that_, Matt?"
46257Did you ever hear of the Spanish Causeway?
46257Do n''t you think so, Matt? 46257 Do n''t you understand what''s been done?
46257Do you remember what Bisbee said to Jacks while they were coming along the pack- trail? 46257 Do you think that''s-- that''s Hawley?"
46257Ever ride a bike, Welcome?
46257First off, Del,said Matt,"have you got any gasoline?
46257Have you any idea who could have done it?
46257Have you heard anythin''from dad, Del?
46257Hawley been roughin''things up with ye? 46257 He did n''t say anything about having a letter for you?"
46257How about another spurt, Chub? 46257 How am I goin''to keep that wooden pin on the pedal?"
46257How could I give it to you,scowled Hawley,"when it was layin''on the bridge?"
46257How did the letter get here? 46257 How did you happen to get in a fix like this, Welcome?"
46257How do you know what I''m doing here?
46257How?
46257How?
46257I guess we could take time to eat a little something ourselves before we go on to the''strike,''eh, Matt?
46257I wonder if Del is still gadding about looking for the fellow who smashed the wireless instrument?
46257I wonder if there has been any foul play here? 46257 I wonder what Dirk Hawley is doing over in this direction?
46257I wonder what that fellow thinks of himself?
46257Is Sam French back yet?
46257Is n''t there something my father can do for you?
46257Is there a hole there?
46257Is there a mine around here called the Santa Maria?
46257It''s what they call stealing your own thunder, ai n''t it, when a swift bunch of toughs act like that?
46257Jacks and Hawley?
46257Kin you ride one o''them new- fangled bicycles, Perry?
46257Mebby the thieves went the other way?
46257Night''s work?
46257Nothing has happened to Mark, has there, Matt?
46257Perry leads me by half an hour?
46257Perry?
46257Remember how to start?
46257Sam, is that you?
46257Say, I would have been up in the air, would n''t I, if you had n''t been along? 46257 Shall we do it, Fred?"
46257That gives Hawley an interest in whatever Jacks finds, do n''t it?
46257The McReadys got a fight on?
46257The recorder closes his office in Phoenix at six o''clock?
46257Think I''m an ijut?
46257Think it was Jacks?
46257Thought ye said ye could run it?
46257True to your friends always, eh?
46257Tryin''ter kill me, was ye?
46257Was Welcome thinking of doing that?
46257Was a location notice filed here just now for Jacks and Hawley?
46257Was she hurt?
46257We''re able ter pay all we''ll have ter,grinned Jacks,"but jest now you''re follerin''my orders,_ sabe_?
46257What are you driving us into that hole in the rocks for?
46257What are you going to do?
46257What business had Hawley with a letter of Mark''s?
46257What d''ye mean by scorchin''like that?
46257What d''ye mean, ye red- headed whelp, by tamperin''with my location notice? 46257 What d''ye think of that, sis?"
46257What d''ye think of that?
46257What d''you mean?
46257What did he say to you while I was sailing after Welcome?
46257What do you figure out from the letter, Matt?
46257What makes ye limp?
46257What time''ll he be passing Black Bayou?
46257What''m I goin''to do?
46257What''s great? 46257 What''s he yellin''about?"
46257What''s his name, Clip?
46257What''s that I''m hearin''?
46257What''s that, Clip?
46257What''s the good of stopping at the Bluebell? 46257 What''s the matter with the machine?
46257What''s the matter with ye?
46257What''s the matter with you?
46257What''s the matter, Welcome?
46257What''s the matter?
46257What''s the use? 46257 What''s to pay now?"
46257What''s up, Matt?
46257What''s up?
46257What''s wrong?
46257Where did you see Perry?
46257Where were you when we were going through the mine?
46257Where you goin'', Matt?
46257Where''d they go?
46257Where''s Lucretia Borgia, gal?
46257Where''s Mark? 46257 Where''s the sheriff?"
46257Where''s your father, Chub?
46257Who did it?
46257Who told you?
46257Who''s that?
46257Why could n''t the two of us get the better of Bisbee? 46257 Why did n''t you give it to me, then?"
46257Why did you leave town?
46257Why do n''t you come back to school, Matt?
46257Why on earth is he in such a deuce of a hurry?
46257Why,cried Chub,"I thought you were going to point the_ Comet_ for Denver?"
46257Why?
46257Ye''re McReady''s son, aire ye?
46257Yes, but do n''t you understand? 46257 You mean to go?"
46257You''re sure it will be at Black Bayou?
46257Your father only had one burro?
46257_ Seen_ anything of him?
46257Ai n''t I now, honest Injun?"
46257And then, again, where''s Dace Perry?
46257Are we all ready?"
46257Besides, he was working for Chub and Susie, and what good was a fellow who would n''t risk his neck for his friends?
46257But how was it that such a letter happened to be in the possession of Hawley, the gambler?
46257But it''s a queer tangle, is n''t it, Matt?"
46257But see here, why did n''t we pass Perry on the road?
46257But what did Hawley come over here for, this morning?"
46257But what has the freight- wagon got to do with the machines?"
46257But where in Sam Hill are Bisbee and Jacks?
46257But why had Matt taken the horse?
46257Could the_ Comet_ reel off a score of miles while Perry was doing the eight or ten that lay between him and the recorder''s office?
46257Did n''t he come with you?"
46257Did n''t we leave our machines here, Matt?"
46257Did ye beat out them villains, Jacks an''Hawley?
46257Ever feel like you was a brass band, Matt, an''had to toot?
46257Had he smashed it when the horse jerked him out of the saddle?
46257Has a wagon been along here since we got to the Bluebell?"
46257Have you a horse here that can do fourteen miles in an hour over Florida sand and in this storm?
46257He almost fell off his boulder when he saw the blurred form of Bisbee lean forward, and heard him call:"What ye doin''in thar, you two?"
46257He would n''t walk all the way to town, would he, and leave the burro and his camp- truck here?"
46257How d''ye start''er, I ask ye?
46257How d''ye stop''er?
46257How in Sam Hill did Hawley happen to have this?"
46257How were the two of them, on foot, ever going to catch up with the motor- cycles?
46257How''re you goin''to get out of here?"
46257If he had got down, where was he?
46257If they were n''t coming here, where_ were_ they goin''?
46257If ye told him where to go to find Chub, Jim, why did n''t he go?"
46257Is that your father''s pack- burro?"
46257Is there a boy who has not longed to possess one of these swift little machines that scud about the roads everywhere throughout the United States?
46257Is there a boy, therefore, who will not be intensely interested in the adventures of"Motor Matt,"as he is familiarly called by his comrades?
46257King?"
46257Look at that''blow- out,''will you, Matt?"
46257Maybe he''s down in the mine?"
46257Page 24, changed?
46257Page 6, changed?
46257Same old grouch, or is it something new?"
46257Seen anything of Perry?"
46257Tell me right out, Matt, hev ye saved the claim?"
46257That''s it, hey?
46257Think we could overhaul''em on foot?
46257Tryin''ter jump this here claim, hey?
46257Was he expecting to drop in here?"
46257What business have you got taking them off?"
46257What d''you suppose he''s sent Dace Perry out here for?"
46257What did you leave''em for?"
46257What do you care for the McReadys, anyhow?
46257What have they done with him?"
46257What knob d''ye pull?"
46257What sort of a game do you calculate he was tryin''to play?"
46257What was the matter with him?"
46257What ye hangin''fire fer, Matt?
46257What you going to do there?"
46257What''s buzzin''around in your nut, anyway, Matt?"
46257What''s everybody talkin''about?
46257What''s goin''on, anyhow?
46257What''s he developed such a sudden an''overwhelmin''interest in dad for?
46257What''s our next play, Matt?
46257What''s that ye got in yer hand?
46257What''s the good, anyhow?
46257What''s the use?
46257What''s this about a fight, gal?"
46257Where did it come from?"
46257Where''d you come from, anyway?"
46257Where''s Chub?
46257Where''s Perk?
46257Where''s Perry?
46257Which crank d''ye turn to make''er start?"
46257Why did n''t ye watch, hey?
46257Why did n''t you tell him how to stop, Penny?"
46257Why do n''t you shoot?"
46257Why not do a mile a minute?
46257Why should Dace Perry try to take the motor- cycles away from you?
46257Why, what''s the matter?"
46257Wonder if Dace Perry did this, too?"
46257Would that make any difference?"
46257You heard what the freighter said about Perry?"
46257You know how to get to the old pack- trail?"
46257exclaimed Chub, staring toward the bridge,"that''s Dirk Hawley, the gambler, comin''this way?"
46257he howled;"how long''ve I got to keep this thing up?"
46257she exclaimed;"what''s the matter?"
46075Ai n''t my money as good as anybody else''s?
46075All ready?
46075Are we pards? 46075 But did you hear the report of a revolver?"
46075By and by? 46075 Ca n''t you take the ropes off my hands while I eat?"
46075Can you get a pistol and stuff it in your pocket when you come to the try- out this afternoon, Clip?
46075Come back ter earth, have ye? 46075 Come on, Chub, what''s struck you in a heap?"
46075D''you think that?
46075Did n''t I trust you, too? 46075 Did n''t we, fellers?"
46075Did you come out here, all the way from Phoenix, on foot, to help me?
46075Do n''t ye know, son,said he,"it ai n''t the dangerousness of a thing that counts so much as the popperler impression about its_ bein''_ dangerous?
46075Do n''t you know the prize that goes to the winner in this event when we meet Prescott is as good as two hundred and fifty dollars? 46075 Had a fine snooze, did n''t ye?
46075Have n''t you noticed Gontze lately? 46075 Have you any enemy lawless enough to take that way of doing you up?"
46075Have you any wish to lay before the white travelers who venture into your domains?
46075He was only second choice, and what''s he working so hard for when he knows you''re going to hold down the Phoenix end against O''Day?
46075Horse?
46075How d''ye feel, Dace?
46075How did you come?
46075How did you find out where I had been taken, Clip?
46075How does she run?
46075How far away is the Bluebell?
46075How many have you told that to?
46075How would you like to own her?
46075How''re you coming, Clip?
46075How''s the wireless working, Susie?
46075I reckon you know how to ride one of the things, eh? 46075 I wonder if they''re killed?"
46075I wonder what''s up with the beggar? 46075 I''ve lost my nerve, have I, Dace Perry?"
46075Is he killed? 46075 Is it tame?"
46075Is that what you''re going to do next-- invent a flying- machine?
46075Is that wireless apparatus working?
46075Is there a doctor here?
46075Laboratory, eh? 46075 Like the looks of her?"
46075May I?
46075Me?
46075No? 46075 Not a candidate?"
46075Notice the twin cylinders? 46075 Now what are you trying to string me about Denver for?"
46075Own her?
46075Protà © gà © of yours, major?
46075Ready?
46075Said I not that the weeds grow almost visibly, O Strongarm?
46075Say, Matt, do you think I can send you through to Phoenix by wireless?
46075So that is where my lord lives, is it?
46075Somebody died and left you a million?
46075Sugar, what in tunket can the blackleg want with you?
46075Surprised, eh?
46075That you, King?
46075That''s how you stack up, is it?
46075Then you do n''t really need me, major?
46075We are sent for a purpose, are we?
46075Well, what of it?
46075Well,went on Perry,"have you got a gun, or can you get one?"
46075What about that?
46075What are you called, O child of the Seleke?
46075What are you talking about, McReady? 46075 What did Perry hope to gain by having Clip shoot a bullet into my tire?"
46075What do you know about him, major?
46075What do you mean by butting in here like that?
46075What do you mean by''rubbing the lamp''?
46075What do you say to that, major?
46075What do you want me to do with it?
46075What else do you call it?
46075What have you heard?
46075What of it?
46075What sort of an ax have you got to grind, anyhow?
46075What time is it now, Clip?
46075What time is it?
46075What would you do?
46075What you think of that, eh? 46075 What''s Chub trying to invent now?"
46075What''s my shooting got to do with it?
46075What''s that coming this way? 46075 What''s the good of talk?
46075What''s the matter with Phoenix as a place to stay? 46075 What''s the matter with him, Matt?"
46075What''s the matter with you?
46075What''s the matter with you?
46075What''s the use of a try- out if the fellow that makes good do n''t hold down his end at the big meet?
46075What''s the use of jockeying around like that?
46075What''s this, what''s this?
46075What''s your candid opinion, King?
46075Where am I?
46075Where did you come from, Clipperton?
46075Where on earth did you get that, Jack?
46075Where you going, Tuohy?
46075Where''d you get this?
46075Where''s Nutmegs? 46075 Where''s that rope?"
46075Who brought me here?
46075Who races for Prescott?
46075Who sent you that letter? 46075 Why did Hawley drop that man off at the bridge?"
46075Why did n''t you bring the whole gang, Perry?
46075Why is our presence desired in the kraal of your chief?
46075Why not?
46075Why not?
46075Why not?
46075Will you drink the toast, Clip?
46075Will you ride it home or shall we send it?
46075Will you take them, pards?
46075You did n''t?
46075You fellows were coming toward the lower end of the grand stand when the accident happened,said he;"did you see any one there?"
46075You seem to be a pretty good fellow,said Matt eagerly,"and why is it you can help Hawley in this cool villainy of his?
46075You''re swaggering around with a chip on your shoulder all the time, ai n''t you?
46075You''re taking this tenderfoot''s word against mine?
46075You''ve found out about Perry?
46075_ Now_ what have you got to say?
46075_ Now_ will Prescott High be good?
46075''Course ye would n''t have a feller go back on his word, would ye?"
46075Ai n''t that right?
46075Ai n''t that scandalous?
46075Ai n''t there any way you can get around it, Matt, without tramping rough- shod on that principle of yours?"
46075Ai n''t ye pleased?"
46075And what good''s a runner or a bicycle- racer without a head?
46075Anythin''else ye''re pinin''ter know?"
46075Are you going to strip?"
46075Are you listening to my spiel, pal?"
46075But how are you going to?
46075But how was he to escape?
46075But what good did it do?
46075But what good is it going to do?
46075But what was his reason?
46075But what''s Matt King?
46075But you do n''t want to let anything happen; see?"
46075Ca n''t you see what it means to have a real Injun in war- paint, like Clip, camped on your trail?
46075Can I ride in this race even if I should n''t be able to meet the fellow from Prescott when the big event is pulled off?"
46075Can you dig up a wheel for me?"
46075Could he do it?
46075Did any of the rest of you see him?"
46075Did you see him as we started down the stretch?"
46075Eh, boys?"
46075How are the wheels?"
46075How are you going to get even with him?"
46075How badly is he hurt?
46075How''s everything at the park?"
46075How''s that?
46075How''s the fire?"
46075I reckon you do n''t think much of Matt King, eh?"
46075I wonder where Welcome gets it?"
46075I''ve got an eye for a likely youngster, and if you want a friend to push you, for a part of the stakes you can pull down, why not try me out?
46075Is he in the laboratory joint, too?"
46075Is there a boy who has not longed to possess one of these swift little machines that scud about the roads everywhere throughout the United States?
46075Is there a boy, therefore, who will not be intensely interested in the adventures of"Motor Matt,"as he is familiarly called by his comrades?
46075Jack, what on earth are we to do with this chap?
46075King and Nutmegs are chums, see?
46075Look at the_ form_ of him, will you?
46075Nobody knows what a rip- roarin''ole fury I am when I cut loose, or----""What''s on your mind, Welcome?"
46075Now, King, if you and I hook up, it''s a professional I''m going to make you; see?
46075Please tie my handkerchief around it, will you?"
46075Remember that rabbit''s foot, mounted on a silver band, he always carries as a luck- bringer?"
46075Rise to that?
46075Savvy?
46075See that dust?
46075Some uncle in India?"
46075Sure your arm''s all right?"
46075That man at the bridge spells trouble with a big T. What''s Hawley butting into this game for, anyway?"
46075That was a hull lot o''style, now, was n''t it?
46075To- morrow night, about this time, I guess you''ll be shooting along on the_ Comet_, eh?"
46075Understand?
46075Was that letter of Tom Clipperton''s merely a lure?
46075Was this because Perry associated with blacklegs, and particularly with Dirk Hawley?
46075Whar be ye?
46075What caused the smash?"
46075What d''ye think o''that?"
46075What did he do that for?"
46075What do you s''pose they want with a gun, Tubbits?"
46075What do you say?"
46075What do you say?"
46075What do you think of her name, eh?"
46075What do_ you_ think about it, my lad?"
46075What say?"
46075What was it you brought back?"
46075What was that I heard just before your bicycle ducked across in front of Perry''s?"
46075What''s Hawley got to do with this, anyhow?"
46075What''s on your mind, anyhow?
46075What''s the use of holding any sort of a grouch at this joyous time?
46075When will that be?"
46075Where did you say my pal Chub was?"
46075Where''s Chub, Susie?"
46075Where''s the reformed road- agent?
46075Where''s yer eyes, anyway?
46075Who are you?"
46075Who was it started Paddy Lee, the fastest hundred- an''-twenty- yard man that ever come down the cinder- path?
46075Who''d do a dastardly thing like that?
46075Who''d want to take a shot at Matt King?
46075Will you be over this evening?
46075Will you ride home with me, Jack?"
46075Will you take them?"
46075You did n''t run over anything, did you, Matt?"
46075You do n''t mean this, do you?"
46075You tell him, Matt, wo n''t you?"
46075You''ve kept quiet so far, have n''t you, Chub?"
46075cried Delray,"have you gone dippy, Matt?"
46075cried Matt;"I?"
46075gasped Chub;"you''re not going to show up that pair and make''em take their medicine?"
47087A fair shake, do you think, or is somebody trying to string you?
47087Age?
47087All ready?
47087And he would n''t?
47087And if you see the place you''ll believe his story?
47087And they did n''t bring Clip in till early this morning?
47087And you will swear that all of Dangerfield''s money was in gold double eagles, and that there was just ten thousand dollars of it?
47087Anyhow, you''re going to write to Leavenworth?
47087Are you positive of that, Matt?
47087But Clip was_ disguised_, Matt,said Chub, more than willing to be convinced;"how do you account for that?"
47087But put me wise to this: How did they know we were intending to go to Prescott on our motor- cycles?
47087But where from, you young ass?
47087Ca n''t you write him, tell what has happened, and ask him for a statement?
47087Could we do anything if we went on the stand?
47087Could you go there?
47087D''ye reckon I did n''t know that?
47087Did I do it?
47087Did he tell you in the note about seeing us, and waiting for us to come back, Clip?
47087Did n''t Clip say anything?
47087Did n''t you ever get rattled, Matt?
47087Did you hear a noise on the left of the road? 47087 Do n''t a fellow ever do a little head- work except when things go crossways?"
47087Do n''t it strike you as mighty odd you should dig up just the amount of money that was taken from Fresnay, and all of the same kind? 47087 Do they?"
47087Do you solemnly swear,he asked as he wrote,"that this is the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"
47087For heaven''s sake, Clip, do n''t you understand what this means to you? 47087 Free kentry, ai n''t it?"
47087Goin''to put the clutch on the cylinders, Matt,he added,"an''advance the spark a couple o''feet?
47087Good all the way?
47087Has some one turned up to claim that red roadster?
47087Have you captured Pete?
47087Have you the note?
47087He told you where to go?
47087Heard anything from Phoenix?
47087How could Hogan and Leffingwell tell the man was Pete, if it was dark?
47087How do you know all that?
47087How far away is it?
47087How long?
47087How much bail will be required to get Clip out?
47087How much money have you got to spend on this, King?
47087How''s Number Twelve?
47087How''s everything?
47087How? 47087 How?"
47087Huh?
47087I say, Crieff,said Bottlebury,"do you think they''ll come again?"
47087I suppose so,replied Bottlebury;"but what in the name of goodness made you?
47087I''ll tell you, Clip,said he finally,"you meet your uncle to- night, but do it carefully-- understand?
47087I''m not badly hurt, am I? 47087 If you can find Clipperton you''ll ask him to come and see me?"
47087If your bag was a good one, why would a change be made to that other one?
47087Is it the same bag?
47087Is it the same gold?
47087Killed?
47087Make um swear? 47087 Mebbyso somebody see um Pima Pete,"he demurred,"mebbyso ketch um?"
47087Not to Chub?
47087Occupation?
47087Place of residence?
47087Ready?
47087Sounds like a pipe- dream, though, do n''t it, that Dangerfield buried just ten thousand in double eagles-- same as what Fresnay got from the bank?
47087Take a chance, ca n''t you?
47087That may be honest money, but how do we know? 47087 Then what do they want to keep us away from Prescott for?"
47087Then why do n''t he do it?
47087Unless what?
47087Wanted_ you_ to help dig it up?
47087Was I talking in my sleep?
47087Was I?
47087We''ve_ got_ to cut loose from here now, have n''t we?
47087Well,went on the sheriff,"have you any idea who Dangerfield''s next of kin is?"
47087What about the fellow at Maricopa?
47087What can we do for a fellow who wo n''t help himself?
47087What could we do if we were n''t here?
47087What did Torrel and his pardner want to hang around Prescott for?
47087What do you think Dangerfield will say?
47087What do you think about it?
47087What do you think, Matt?
47087What else has happened, Chub?
47087What expenses?
47087What good would that do? 47087 What have you and Chub got to work on?"
47087What makes you think that, Chub?
47087What on earth has he come out like that for?
47087What was in that note Pima Pete gave you?
47087What were they chasin''you for?
47087What''s the matter with me?
47087What''s the matter? 47087 What''s the use, Matt?
47087What''s this?
47087What''s up with it?
47087What''s up?
47087What''s wrong, Clip?
47087What''s your real name, Pete?
47087Where are those other two men?
47087Where are you stopping?
47087Where did Dangerfield get all that money?
47087Where did Dangerfield get that money?
47087Where did you get that gold, then?
47087Where do those cattle belong?
47087Where''ll you get''em from?
47087Where''s the note?
47087Who are you expecting to see, anyhow?
47087Who brought me in?
47087Who''ll pay for the lawyer?
47087Why did n''t they skip when they had a chance?
47087Why did n''t you send word to us sooner?
47087Why did they let Pima Pete get away?
47087Why did you disguise yourself when you went out to meet Pima Pete?
47087Why did you do that?
47087Why did you grab Leffingwell''s revolver and keep him from shooting the half- breed when he was running away?
47087Why not?
47087Why should n''t he?
47087Why should n''t there have been? 47087 Why?"
47087Would Pima Pete''s sworn statement help any?
47087Ye do n''t hold any grouch ag''inst me, do you, Matt?
47087Ye do n''t mean ter say,cried Fresnay,"that it''s Motor Matt himself that made this devil- wagon cut that hole in the air?"
47087You got all this from Welcome?
47087You know Clipperton''s in trouble, do n''t you?
47087You remember what Dangerfield said when he was captured? 47087 You remember what Josh Fresnay, that cowboy, told us,"went on Chub,"while we had him on the car racin''away from those stampeding steers?
47087You savvy um, hey?
47087You say Clip''s in jail?
47087Your name?
47087And what credence was a half- breed entitled to, anyway, even when under oath?
47087And what had Pima Pete to do with it?"
47087Any telegram from Short?"
47087Anything gone crossways?"
47087Are you prepared to furnish bail and get Clipperton out for a few days?
47087Are you willing to try what Dangerfield wants done?"
47087Burke?"
47087Burke?"
47087But how me swear, huh?"
47087But what have we got to go on?
47087But, assuming that you did dig it up, who put the gold in the ground?
47087Ca n''t you send some one to take our affidavits?"
47087Could Clip explain matters satisfactorily by keeping his relationship with Pete in the background?
47087Could Matt, engulfed as he was in that haze of smoke, see the wagon?
47087D''you hear?"
47087Did he hurt the wagon any, Joe?"
47087Did the deputies tell Welcome how Pima Pete managed to escape?"
47087Did ye see it, Nick?"
47087Do n''t it knock you slabsided?
47087Do you know anything about the old Hopewell tunnel, Chub?"
47087Do you know the road?"
47087Goin''to show it to McKibben?"
47087How do you size''em up?"
47087How long will you be in Prescott?"
47087How was he going to play square with the sheriff and at the same time be loyal to Clipperton?
47087How we save um Clip?
47087How we save um?
47087I would n''t mind having that seat of yours myself; eh, Clip?"
47087I''d look nice facin''your father and your sister and tellin''them you''d dropped off my engine and been ground up under the drivers, would n''t I?"
47087Is that it?"
47087Is that what you make of it, Matt?"
47087Is there a boy who has not longed to possess one of these swift little machines that scud about the roads everywhere throughout the United States?
47087Is there a boy, therefore, who will not be intensely interested in the adventures of"Motor Matt,"as he is familiarly called by his comrades?
47087It''s just the same, only it''s different; see?"
47087Know where Tom Clipperton is?"
47087Listen to that, will you?"
47087McKibben?"
47087McKibben?"
47087McKibben?"
47087McKibben?"
47087McKibben?"
47087Page 3, removed unnecessary quote before"But the command...."Page 6, changed"Howdy, Matt?"
47087See?
47087Shall we tote scrap inter Prescott, Nick?"
47087Slow down a leetle, ca n''t ye?
47087Suppose I get that one- cylinder machine of Clip''s and we make the trip to Prescott on our motor- cycles?"
47087Suppose one of us had been in front of that window when the mail- wagon came through?"
47087Suppose they''re working a dodge on us?"
47087That there was something he wanted you to do?"
47087That''s going_ some_, eh?"
47087This was after the robbery----""But how did Torrel and his pal know about the pay- roll money?"
47087Tough luck, eh?
47087Understand?"
47087Was it a clue that pointed to something worth while in Clip''s case?
47087Was that the time he spoke about having buried that money and asked you to help dig it up?"
47087We''ll meet him at the road that runs along the railroad- track----""But what good''ll that do?"
47087What did they mean?
47087What if Jack Moody, Matt suddenly asked himself, had made up some of his lost time?
47087What if the train was already whipping along the rails on its way out of Prescott?
47087What time were Clip and Pima Pete met up with by the deputies?"
47087What was you whisperin''to Clip about?"
47087What we do, huh?"
47087What were you digging for?"
47087What''s that thing off to the side o''the road?
47087When will you be ready to start for Prescott?"
47087When''ll you be around again, Matt?"
47087Where you been, Matt?"
47087Who d''you s''pose did a thing like that?"
47087Why did n''t Dangerfield tell the sheriff and let_ him_ dig it up?"
47087Would Clip still allow his pride to stand between himself and freedom?
47087Would they keep him from taking the letter?
47087You do n''t know anything about that, do you, McReady?"
47087You think um Pete better go Phoenix, give himself up?"
47087You''ve heard about the robbery of Josh Fresnay, and about my chum, Tom Clipperton, being held for it?"
47087asked McKibben;"and why did he hide it like that?"
53533''I wonder is he dead?'' 53533 ''Will I fire at it?''
53533''You know your orders, do n''t you?'' 53533 About what time was the car stolen?"
53533Ai n''t dat a mos''''sprisin''purceedin''? 53533 Ai n''t dat scan''lous?"
53533And you are a prisoner?
53533And you lost it while I was chasing you?
53533Are those motor cycles the ones that belong to Martin, that were stolen from us and that we bled a hundred and fifty apiece for?
53533Blue car? 53533 But how do you know Tsan Ti is on that train?"
53533But what can Grattan do? 53533 Ca n''t you be a man?
53533Can you drive a motor car, Matt?
53533Did Grattan and Bunce capture the other car?
53533Did n''t Grattan search him?
53533Did n''t I tell you? 53533 Did n''t you hear what was said when the motor boys passed us?"
53533Do n''t I look the part?
53533Do you know positively that Grattan and Pardo are following the car?
53533Do you think Tige can watch two prisoners?
53533Does dat''ar thing b''long tuh yo'', boss?
53533Generous and agreeable friend,spoke up Tsan Ti,"did you succeed in capturing Sam Wing?"
53533Grattan and Pardo?
53533Has he been up tuh somefin''dat he had n''t ort?
53533Has he told you about the ruby, Tsan Ti?
53533Has n''t he got the ruby?
53533Have you a knife, illustrious youth?
53533Hocused it?
53533How are we going to get to Gardenville?
53533How can you tell the difference?
53533How did that happen? 53533 How did you happen to find me?"
53533How far down the road am I to go, pard?
53533How much of a start has the Chinaman got?
53533How was it lost?
53533How you savvy?
53533How, in the name o''Davy Jones,he cried, his gaze returning to Matt,"do you happen to be cruisin''in these waters?"
53533How?
53533I''m ready,was the prompt response,"but will we go?"
53533If Grattan and Pardo are really following you,said Matt,"why could n''t you go back down the road, stop the car, and pretend you had a breakdown?"
53533If we take the_ Iris_----?
53533If what?
53533Is n''t the theft of the ruby enough to send you to jail?
53533Is that the New York man''s automobile, Joe?
53533Is that the idol''s eye, Matt?
53533Is this what ye call treatin''a feller white? 53533 Jee- whillikins, mister,"said he,"what''s that slant- eyed heathen been up to, hey?
53533Looks purty meachin'', do n''t he?
53533Lost it?
53533Lost, eh?
53533Lost?
53533Matter- of- fact youth,remarked the mandarin earnestly,"do you not realize how strange events happen swiftly in the wake of the Eye of Buddha?
53533Matter?
53533Maybe,suggested McGlory,"I''d better head the car t''other way?
53533Not safe?
53533Oh, friend of my friend,wheezed Tsan Ti, passing his gaze to McGlory,"was it you who shouted?"
53533Oh, that''s what your chum did, eh?
53533Remember Monte Cristo like that, pard?
53533Say, pard,he added, turning to Matt,"do you know a spark- plug from the carburetor?"
53533Shocked?
53533Somebody want us to run an air ship or go to sea in a submarine?
53533Something else on your mind?
53533Square?
53533Suppose you and Gridly get into the tonneau,suggested Matt,"and leave Boggs, and me, and the dog to hide in the bushes at the edge of the marsh?
53533That''s possible, of course; but the chances for success, though slight, are worth waiting and working for, do n''t you think? 53533 Then may I request of you the Eye of Buddha?"
53533This is your work, is it, Motor Matt?
53533Want to take the breath all out of me?
53533Was n''t Tsan Ti on the train?
53533Was one of the thieves supposed to be a sailor with a green patch over one eye?
53533Well?
53533What are the facts, Martin?
53533What are you doing out here in the woods?
53533What are you thinking of, McGlory?
53533What can I do for you, Neb?
53533What chance is there of our receiving a letter from the mandarin? 53533 What cheering thoughts can I possibly have?"
53533What did the other thief look like?
53533What did you find, Neb?
53533What did you jump onto me for like this? 53533 What difference does that make, Joe?"
53533What good will that do?
53533What is he roped for?
53533What is it?
53533What is the fault with my plan, generous sir?
53533What luck, Zeke?
53533What shall we do with Sam Wing?
53533What sort of a trap?
53533What sort of clue is taking us to Gardenville?
53533What yew goin''to do, friend?
53533What you yellin''for? 53533 What''re you doin''here?
53533What''s that place ahead there?
53533What''s that you say, Bib? 53533 What''s the matter with you, Grattan?"
53533What''s the matter, Joe?
53533What''s the matter?
53533What''s the matter?
53533What''s the number?
53533What''s the use of chasing the chink?
53533What''s to be done with the two Chinamen?
53533What''s to pay?
53533What''ve I done that ye can send me to the brig for? 53533 Where and how was the ruby lost?"
53533Where did you and Grattan come from, Bunce, that you were placed so handily for entrapping McGlory and the mandarin?
53533Where did you find Joe and Martin? 53533 Where did you have it?"
53533Where does the clue lead?
53533Where have you been since you took the ruby?
53533Where is it?
53533Where is the chink?
53533Where was the car you and Bunce stole from the Catskill garage?
53533Where were you,went on the cowboy,"when you hailed the man in the white car?"
53533Where''s Tsan Ti and the ruby?
53533Where''s the pocket, Bunce?
53533Who can tell of that? 53533 Who was the_ hombre_, Grattan?"
53533Who''s it from?
53533Whut''s dat he''s er- sayin''tuh me?
53533Why did n''t he send the thief over the road?
53533Why did n''t you take his knife away from him? 53533 Why is n''t it safe?"
53533Why not turn him loose, an''then follow him?
53533Why not?
53533Why not?
53533Why not?
53533Why not?
53533Would n''t this rattle your spurs, Matt?
53533Wrong in the upper story, ai n''t he?
53533You are sure there were no more than two of the thieves?
53533You chasin''dat''ar Chinymum, boss?
53533You found that red jewel at the edge of the bridge, you say, Neb?
53533You had the ruby when you were at the spring?
53533You know how to manage a motor cycle?
53533You think Grattan has gone to Gardenville to intercept Tsan Ti?
53533You took it from the mandarin, did n''t you?
53533You''re the man who was on duty when the automobile was stolen?
53533You''re to get five hundred dollars for recovering the car?
53533_ Can_ he?
53533_ Now_ what? 53533 Ai n''t dat fine? 53533 And why were you chasing him?
53533Any one around?
53533Are Motor Matt and Pard McGlory mixed up in that''we''?"
53533Are you going down the river with me, pard, or have I got to go alone?"
53533Are you going?"
53533But just answer me this: What''s the good of escaping?
53533But what sort of a trap is it?"
53533But which way am I to go?"
53533By golly, whaffur kind ob way is dat tuh treat an ole moke lak me?"
53533Ca n''t a heathen like you let a Christian sleep?
53533Can you take me to this''pocket,''as you call it?"
53533Did n''t you ever stop to think, Martin, that, off and on, the motor boys might have troubles of their own?"
53533Did you see a blue car?"
53533Do n''t you know Matt, that whenever you dream about a person with red hair, trouble''s on the pike and you''ve got up your little red flag?"
53533Do you know him, Motor Matt?"
53533Do you want to take the mandarin with you in the roadster, Matt?"
53533Face the music, ca n''t you?
53533Have you any notion which way that car ought to go?"
53533Have you hid the lantern, Bunce?"
53533How could he, a miserable bazaar man, fight the demons?
53533How in blazes did old Tsan Ti get the thing back to us?
53533How much do you think that ruby''s worth?"
53533How_ could_ he have returned it when, as Matt and McGlory believed, he was at that very moment hurrying to get out of the country and escape the law?
53533Huh?"
53533I think it would work, pard, but who''s to hide in the tonneau?
53533If you''re so plumb certain he wo n''t write, why not promise?"
53533Is not my present distress sufficient, without any of your unwelcome attentions?
53533Is that fat chink the one that come from Chiny to get holt of the idol''s eye?"
53533Is the matter clear, esteemed friend?"
53533Is we squar''now, boss?"
53533Look there, will yew?"
53533Martin?"
53533Maybe you''ve heard of Motor Matt?"
53533Nervy, but it wo n''t wash.""Where''d the car fall into your hands if you ai n''t the ones that stole it?"
53533Ready for New York in the morning, Joe?"
53533Say,_ did n''t_ I?
53533Some remarkable now, ai n''t it?"
53533Tell me, my lad, are you and Motor Matt looking for Tsan Ti?"
53533The Confederate seemed to read me through, for he said:"''Well, Yank, have you got enough water?''
53533The question now was, did a similar waterway exist at the northern end?
53533Think we''re far enough?"
53533What I want to know is, where have you and the mandarin come from?
53533What d''ye say, mate?
53533What good is it going to do you?"
53533What happened to you after Sam Wing stole the ruby?"
53533What have you been doing since we went two different ways from the spring?"
53533What if his ancestors were regarding him, looking out of the vastness of the life to come with stern disapproval?
53533What is dat thing, anyhow?
53533What more can you do to make me miserable?"
53533What sort of a car was it that was stolen?"
53533What were Sam Wing''s forefathers thinking of this act of vile treachery?
53533What''s happened to them?"
53533What''s hit him now?"
53533What''s the fat Chinaman doin''?"
53533What''s the trouble with it?"
53533What''s the word?"
53533Where are they now?
53533Where are we bound for, gentlemen?"
53533Where are you, pard?"
53533Where did you pick up the mandarin, Grattan?"
53533Where''s Matt?"
53533Where''s your nerve, Pardo?"
53533Which is the mandarin that got robbed of the ruby?"
53533Who was Sam Wing that he should defy these ten thousand demons of misfortune?
53533Whoever thought this could happen?
53533Why did Tsan Ti get off the train at Gardenville when he was going to Buffalo?
53533Why not crank up the automobile''s engine and rush down the ravine?
53533Why should Grattan have returned the box to Matt?
53533Will it insult you if I offer, of my goodness of heart, five hundred dollars?"
53533Will you answer a civil question, my lad?"
53533Will you go along?"
53533You know these hills?"
53533You takee money, lettee Sam Wing go?"
53533You''re the boy to look out for Number One, eh?
53533You, for one, of course, but who else?"
53533asked Matt,"the one that was stolen from Martin''s garage last night?''
53533chuckled McGlory,"what sort of a day''s work would you call this, pard?
53533he shouted at last,"is this a dream, or the real thing?
47071''Do you know there is a thousand dollars offered for his head in New Orleans?'' 47071 A relative of Pima Pete?"
47071Am I dreamin'',''r w''at? 47071 Am I dreaming?
47071An automobile?
47071An''you''ve come a hundred miles in five hours on_ that_ thing?
47071And she ca n''t get well?
47071Any place on the trail where I can get gasoline?
47071Are you hurt, Clip?
47071Are you trying to move your feet?
47071Bascomb?
47071Black Ben? 47071 But where''d he pick up this Bascomb?"
47071But who''s that ruffian, Clip?
47071Ca n''t you say good- by, pard, and wish me luck?
47071Can you ride a wheel?
47071Can you show me, Mr. McKibben,he asked,"how I''ll have to go to reach Potter''s Gap?"
47071Can you tell me where I''ll find Sheriff Burke, of Prescott?
47071Could n''t it be bought? 47071 Did I tell you that Dangerfield gave me a note, there in the notch, on our way to Phoenix, and told me to read it any time after we reached town?"
47071Did n''t Rags tell you anything about herself?
47071Did n''t you read it?
47071Did n''t you sleep in the gap?
47071Did she say anything about herself, or about her folks?
47071Did you have any trouble getting it?
47071Did you know the revolver was n''t loaded?
47071Did you send up any?
47071Different?
47071Do n''t it beat anything you ever heard of, Clip? 47071 Do n''t ye know we got sick folks in this house?
47071Do n''t you ever want an automobile? 47071 Do you know anything about this girl?"
47071Do you know those two with the horses?
47071Do you mean she ca n''t get well?
47071Do you think you can believe what Juan Morisco told you?
47071Do you want it?
47071Does the team belong to you?
47071Ever see the two men before?
47071Gaynor?
47071Going up Castle Creek Cañon?
47071Got anything to eat in your place?
47071Had I ought to take that reward- money, governor? 47071 Hain''t you ever heard tell of him?"
47071Hang it all, Matt it ca n''t be you''re goin''to- day?
47071Have you heard how Burke came out?
47071Have you lived long in Phoenix? 47071 He did and you did n''t?"
47071How can word reach the gang? 47071 How did those roughs get next to this work of yours?"
47071How do they do it, Clip?
47071How do you make that out, Clip? 47071 How do you mean?"
47071How long are we going to be hung up here, Clip?
47071How long since they passed?
47071How much farther have we got to go?
47071How much time did we lose?
47071How would you like_ that_ job?
47071How''d Dangerfield ever find out we was layin''fer him here?
47071How''d you know that, Clip?
47071How''d yous know w''at his name was?
47071How''ll they find out, sir? 47071 How''s that, Burke?"
47071How''s the girl?
47071How''s the going between the Arizona Canal and Castle Creek Cañon, Clip?
47071I reckon you''re the one Bolivar an''me''s been waitin''here fer, an''--what''s the matter with ye, anyhow?
47071I suppose you understand the way in which we trapped our bird? 47071 If any picters is published in the papers, mine goes in bigger''n yours, do n''t it?"
47071If he''s one of Burke''s men,argued Matt,"what will he do with the two roughs who have the machine, and are working for Bascomb?"
47071If he''s one of the gang,said Clip,"why is he in such a hurry to get to Phoenix?
47071Is Juan Morisco a friend of yours, Rags?
47071Is she hurt?
47071Is the governor here yet?
47071Is the little girl here?
47071It''s right up the cañon, is n''t it, until I get to the trail that leads over the right- hand wall?
47071Le''me see,the boys heard him mutter, as he bent over the book,"how does that there go?
47071Not much of a disguise, is it?
47071Ollie?
47071Ollie?
47071On the level?
47071Plenty of oil?
47071Ready, Perk?
47071Suppose nobody claims it? 47071 Sure Susie ai n''t got back yit, an''nobody else ai n''t lookin''?"
47071The old joke is a nice kind of reformed road- agent, ai n''t he? 47071 The_ niño_?"
47071Then why did he let you drive him ahead with it?
47071Then you''re the chap who covered the trail between Phoenix and Potter''s Gap yesterday afternoon?
47071There was a fight?
47071Think I was going back to Phoenix without finding out something about how you''d come out? 47071 Think you can find your way all right?"
47071To what do you allude?
47071W''at d''yous call yerself?
47071Was she as badly hurt as that?
47071Was that all you heard, Clip?
47071Well?
47071Were Dangerfield and his gang captured?
47071What are you doing here, Clip?
47071What are you trying to get through your head, anyhow?
47071What became of him?
47071What became of the little girl that figured in that runaway?
47071What became of-- of your uncle, Clip?
47071What could that chap who was loafing in the hall discover just by seeing King come in here?
47071What did the girl say?
47071What did you say your name was?
47071What do I care for bars and stone walls at a time like this? 47071 What do you mean by that?"
47071What do you think of that, McKibben?
47071What does the governor want me for?
47071What have you had to eat?
47071What in the wide world is that fellow?
47071What in thunder was Juan Morisco doin''in Phoenix?
47071What is it?
47071What kind of a car was it?
47071What place is this?
47071What place is this?
47071What sort of a contraption y''u got thar, anyways?
47071What sort of a hold have you got over him, Clip?
47071What sort of a performance do you call that, Clip?
47071What time is it, Matt?
47071What was it the governor wanted of you?
47071What was it you were going to have me do?
47071What you got in that canteen?
47071What''ll you do, Clip?
47071What''s dat?
47071What''s going on here?
47071What''s old Sawbones got to say, pard?
47071What''s on?
47071What''s that Mexican doing here?
47071What''s that got to do with it?
47071What''s that to you?
47071What''s that?
47071What''s the governor got to say?
47071What''s the matter with it?
47071What''s the matter with ye?
47071What''s the matter with you, José?
47071What''s the matter, Jenkins?
47071What''s the matter?
47071What''s the meaning of this?
47071What''s true?
47071Where are they?
47071Where did you come from?
47071Where''d ye come from, kid, an''what''s yer bloomin''hurry? 47071 Where''d you get the girl?"
47071Where''d you go so sudden, pard?
47071Where''d you leave it, Matt?
47071Where''ll I find Governor Gaynor?
47071Where''s Welcome?
47071Where''s the money to come from?
47071Who are you, my lad?
47071Who are you?
47071Who are you?
47071Who told you to get here by five o''clock?
47071Who wants me?
47071Who were those men with you, Rags?
47071Who''s her father, anyhow?
47071Why are you doing that?
47071Why should I have any trouble?
47071Why, Clip? 47071 Why, I was told to get here at five o''clock----""Ye was, hey?"
47071Will you help him?
47071You been mixin''up with that gang, Matt King?
47071You say it concerns me?
47071You sent for me, sir?
47071You slept on the rocks?
47071You thought I was running away from you, I reckon?
47071You''re feeling a whole lot better, eh?
47071You''ve got another name besides that, have n''t you?
47071And what was the girl doing with Morisco, tied to the wagon like she was?
47071And why had she been tied to the wagon?
47071Are you as handy with an automobile as you are with a motor- cycle, Matt?"
47071Are yous givin''it to me straight?"
47071Burke?"
47071But what cared we?
47071But why are you fellers showin''up here so early in the morning?"
47071Ca n''t you do better?"
47071Can I believe what I see?
47071Can you make it?"
47071Did n''t she tell you her name?"
47071Did our smoke- signals help?"
47071Does anybody know?"
47071Dry?
47071Friends o''your''n?"
47071Funny, ai n''t it?
47071Gregory?"
47071Had McKibben made a mistake?
47071Have you got any gasoline, Gregory?"
47071How can you expect to fly with the rope holdin''you back?"
47071How long has he been in there?"
47071How long have you been in this part of the country?"
47071How long were you driving the fellow in with that useless piece of hardware?"
47071How would you like to do a little brisk, and perhaps exciting, work for Uncle Sam and the Territory of Arizona?"
47071How''d you like the job?"
47071How''s your gasoline- tank, Clip?"
47071I know that my name''s not King, but if I''m square with myself and play the game fair, what''s the odds?
47071I left Phoenix at quarter- past twelve----""Last night?"
47071I''m trying to get to Phoenix on business, and I wonder if five hundred dollars would tempt you to let me have that wheel?"
47071If this is a free country, how can we keep the Chinks out, any more than the Eskimos, or the Dutch, or any one else that wants to come here?
47071Is it a bargain?"
47071Is it yous, dad?"
47071Is there a boy who has not longed to possess one of these swift little machines that scud about the roads everywhere throughout the United States?
47071Is there a boy, therefore, who will not be intensely interested in the adventures of"Motor Matt,"as he is familiarly called by his comrades?
47071It kain''t be this kid''s one o''the Dangerfield gang?"
47071It may be a race with Death who-- who knows?"
47071It''s my idee, ai n''t it?"
47071Made good, as usual, eh?
47071McKibben?"
47071McKibben?"
47071McKibben?"
47071McKibben?"
47071Say, ai n''t yous de Motor Matt de push has been talkin''about?"
47071She hurt, huh?"
47071That being the case, why was she with the two Mexicans?
47071Then what did that exchange of coats and hats mean?
47071Think you can find the way?"
47071Unarmed as he was, what could Motor Matt accomplish against the ruffian and the dog?
47071Was he planning to help them evade Burke and his posse?
47071We''d look nice with all our money tied up in an automobile, would n''t we?
47071Well, did that make any trouble for you, King?"
47071What am I goin''to do with this here rope?"
47071What are you going to do, my boy?"
47071What came over the doctor all at once?
47071What do you know about her, King?"
47071What do you say?"
47071What do you say?''
47071What in tarnation ails him?"
47071What of it?"
47071What will be done with it?"
47071What ye lookin''up Burke fer?"
47071What''s de matter wid''em?"
47071What''s the game, anyway?"
47071What''s the matter with him?"
47071What''s the use of trying to be somebody?
47071What''s your name?"
47071Where were you at five o''clock yesterday afternoon?"
47071Where''s Susie?
47071Who is he?"
47071Who is this feller?
47071Who told him?"
47071Who''s this?"
47071Who''s your friend, Matt?"
47071Why did n''t she let go?
47071Why does he want to go to Phoenix at all?
47071Why not, he asked himself,"play possum"with the man and the dog, and pretend to be badly hurt and unconscious?
47071Why was it necessary for an officer of the law to disguise himself?
47071Would n''t you rather have it than a motor- cycle?"
47071You hear me?
47071You stayed in the ravine to wait for me?"
47071You take Dick and Tom, your usual help?''
47071You want this to be a private flight, do n''t you?"
47071You wo n''t leave for Denver until after that?"
47071cried Bascomb;"at the Tanks?"
47071cried Chub, joining in the race for the canal,"where''d you fellers come from?"
47071interrupted the captain, starting up in sudden excitement;''you''re going to start down the river next week?''
36500''What, never?''
36500A priest?
36500About the money he entrusted us with?
36500Aching?
36500And if we are held up?
36500And the troops? 36500 And undergoing six months''training at home, pater?"
36500And what are you doing here?
36500And what is the reply of the King of England?
36500And will you accompany us?
36500Any grub?
36500Any information respecting the destruction of one of the enemy''s aeroplanes?
36500Any orders, sir, before we return to Fort de Barchon?
36500Are they going to shoot the crowd of us?
36500Are you fit, then?
36500Are you going into the city, camarades? 36500 At any risk to themselves?"
36500At any risk?
36500At what range is the head of yonder column?
36500British?
36500But if we are challenged? 36500 But the boat?"
36500But the dispatch?
36500But why do n''t the beggars fire?
36500Can Monsieur produce proof?
36500Can we see Colonel von Koenik, Max?
36500Can you direct me to Cortenaeken, monsieur?
36500Can you limp as far as the end of the cellar? 36500 Can you manage it?"
36500Can you put your foot to the ground without much pain? 36500 Crippled a Taube?
36500Did you bring the water?
36500Do n''t you think you had better drop me?
36500Do you call war between Germany and France and Russia nothing, old fellow?
36500Do you know the headquarters offices in the Palace of Justice in Liége?
36500Do you know where they are taking us to?
36500Do you think that he really intends to have us shot?
36500Do you want a passage back to Sheerness?
36500Do you, Herr Colonel, really believe all that?
36500Does Mademoiselle Résimont know about her father?
36500Drop you-- what on earth for?
36500English? 36500 Got any tommy?"
36500Have n''t you any imagination, old man? 36500 Have they burned the place?
36500His Christian name?
36500How about these boots with spurs? 36500 How am I to know that you are not German spies?"
36500How far are the Germans from Paris to- day, Max?
36500How far have you come?
36500How was that?
36500How''s your foot? 36500 Hurt?"
36500Hurt?
36500I say, what''s this wheeze about Liége?
36500I suppose our merchant vessels sail as freely as they did before the war? 36500 I''m with Barrington-- you remember him?
36500If we are to die, can not we have the service of a priest?
36500Indeed?
36500Is it likely that Germans who have purposely shattered God''s house can hope for absolution from a priest?
36500Is she?
36500Is there a telescope on board?
36500Is there no way of sending for him?
36500It seems like it,agreed Rollo;"but what will happen when they read the roll- call?
36500Liége? 36500 Men?"
36500Monsieur Everest-- is Monsieur Everest there?
36500Monsieur requires----?
36500Now what do you propose doing?
36500Now what''s to be done?
36500Now, girls, which shall it be? 36500 Now, how can I help it?
36500Now, what''s to be done?
36500Now, what''s to be done?
36500Now, what''s to be done?
36500Now, which way?
36500Of course,he added,"when our armies enter Paris-- about the 1st of September-- you will accept the decree of fate?
36500Of what offence am I accused, sir?
36500Ought we to see Major Résimont?
36500Qui v''là?
36500Qui v''là?
36500Ready?
36500See that spout? 36500 See that wedge- shaped brick?
36500She is at the institution of Madame de la Barre?
36500Sir?
36500So they''re here?
36500Tell me, how came you to be fighting with us in Belgian uniform?
36500Tell me: is there anything wrong? 36500 The forts have n''t fallen?"
36500The question is, how are we to rejoin our regiment?
36500Then perhaps you would tell your friends in England how the victorious Germans will march through London, hein?
36500Then what do you suggest?
36500Then why did n''t you call me?
36500They did n''t spot you?
36500Think so?
36500Well, sir, what have you to say?
36500Well, what have you to say?
36500What are you doing here, I should like to know?
36500What are you looking for, Rollo?
36500What do you mean?
36500What do you propose to do if we find the girls?
36500What do you say?
36500What do you think of the situation, sir?
36500What else would you expect from Belgians?
36500What for?
36500What has happened, comrade?
36500What has happened? 36500 What have we here?"
36500What have you done that for?
36500What have you stopped for?
36500What have you there-- a Uhlan helmet? 36500 What is it?"
36500What is that fellow driving at?
36500What is the adventure this time? 36500 What is your name, prisoner?"
36500What might you be doing here?
36500What was that swashbuckler driving at, I wonder?
36500What will you do? 36500 What''s that ahead?"
36500What''s that?
36500What''s the game, old man?
36500What''s the game?
36500What''s the programme?
36500What''s to be done now?
36500What''s up now, I wonder?
36500What''s up?
36500What''s up?
36500What''s up?
36500What''s wrong?
36500What, then, has happened, Pierre?
36500What, then, is British? 36500 What, then, is the trouble?"
36500Whatever is the fellow aiming at?
36500Where are the Belgian troops?
36500Where are the bikes?
36500Where are you going to?
36500Where?
36500Where?
36500Who denounces the accused?
36500Whose, I wonder?
36500Why is the army to be mobilized, then?
36500Why not have a shot at it?
36500Why not try climbing down by means of the lightning- conductor?
36500Why playing?
36500Why?
36500Why?
36500Will it be very rough?
36500Will our motor- bicycles be all right?
36500Wo n''t you come with me, Kenneth?
36500Wonder if there''s anything for us in that lot?
36500Yes, sir; how did you know that?
36500Yes-- do you know her?
36500You Belgians?
36500You applied for two additional dispatch- riders, I believe?
36500You are English? 36500 You can manage all right?"
36500You gentlemen are English, without doubt?
36500You have n''t? 36500 You have no complaint against me?"
36500You have not heard, eh? 36500 You know the way to Tongres?"
36500You live in the city?
36500You may think me an obstinate mule, Kenneth,said his comrade,"but why should two wounded men be trying to make their way to the front?
36500You men are wounded? 36500 You might get through as a German dispatch- rider; but with a supposed wounded man going towards the firing- line?
36500You think so? 36500 You understand our language?"
36500You want a uniform?
36500You''ll both come to see us again whenever you have the chance, wo n''t you?
36500You''ve not heard that song? 36500 Your army?
36500Yvonne Résimont here?
36500Again, you admit that you took up arms against us?"
36500Ah, my young friends, this, then, is the manner in which you come to Liége?"
36500And Madame Résimont?"
36500And Rollo-- what had become of him?
36500And what did they do?"
36500And what''s the matter with your bike?"
36500Are there any dispatch- riders here?"
36500Are we still under fire?"
36500Are you cold?
36500Bacon and eggs?
36500But Monsieur is not Belgian?"
36500But how do you feel?"
36500But is it not already too late to leave the city?
36500But is that right that the Dutchmen wo n''t keep us till the end of the war?"
36500But why are your troops mobilizing?"
36500But you are not a Belgian?"
36500But you are unarmed: how did you vanquish this fellow?"
36500But, monsieur, surely Belgium will be out of it?
36500But, tell me, why are you both so anxious to go to Liége?"
36500By the by, where is your bike?"
36500CHAPTER II A Break- down"Is that so?"
36500CHAPTER VI A Vain Assault"I say, how about your sister, old man?"
36500Can you get mine from my pocket?
36500Can you produce proofs?
36500Did they seize the treasury?"
36500Do Uhlans ever ride motor- bikes?"
36500Do you remember the motor- launch in the shed at the end of Jules de la Paix''s garden?"
36500Do you think it likely that our troops have been on Belgian soil for nearly a week and this is the first we''ve heard of it?"
36500Fit for a tramp?
36500For one thing, where are the German uniforms?"
36500Got your knife handy?
36500Has not our neutrality been guaranteed by our neighbours?
36500Have they done any damage?"
36500Have you any idea how far you''ll have to tramp?
36500Have you anyone in the district who can identify you?"
36500Have you anything to eat?"
36500Have you delivered the message to the Burgomaster of Tongres?"
36500Have you heard of Kitchener''s army, then?"
36500He is not dead?"
36500He might see if his friend, Monsieur Jambonne, could oblige; but, in the meanwhile, would messieurs care to sit in the_ salle à manger_?
36500Here''s the dispatch-- sounds important, does n''t it?
36500How much farther is it, do you think?"
36500How''s the ankle?"
36500I suppose if we keep due west we''ll do something?
36500I thought we decided to fight shy of heavy traffic?"
36500I wonder how they were discharged?"
36500I wonder if we could get a bath?"
36500If we had not an assured refuge in England, where would we be?
36500If what you say is true, why are you not in uniform?
36500Illustration: Dust cover art][ Illustration: Cover art][ Frontispiece:"OF WHAT OFFENCE AM I ACCUSED, SIR?"
36500Is that clear?
36500Is there anything else?"
36500It sagged considerably under his weight; what would it do with the additional weight of his mount?
36500Kenneth glanced at his companion,"What''s to be done now?"
36500Let me see, she''s your youngest sister?"
36500Let me see, what''s the programme?
36500Let me see-- didn''t they skedaddle at Waterloo and almost let our fellows down?"
36500Looks a bit suspicious, eh?"
36500Meanwhile messieurs might like to rest at the inn?
36500Nevertheless, the Government will pay----""Where are they taken to?"
36500No; what I meant is, why should we be balked in going to Liége?
36500Now, girls, how about a cup of coffee?
36500Now, perhaps, to save further unpleasantness you will tell me the actual reason why you were in the Belgian service?"
36500Otherwise----""Were there no troops available?"
36500Our troops will be in Paris within a week-- and then?"
36500Question is, where am I?"
36500Ready?"
36500Ready?"
36500Return to England and join the army?"
36500Shall I land you on Dutch territory, or will you risk crossing the North Sea?"
36500Shall we----?"
36500THE VICTORIOUS WHITE ENSIGN Illustrations"OF WHAT OFFENCE AM I ACCUSED, SIR?"
36500The 9th Regiment of the Line?"
36500The 9th of the Line is now between Ostend and Nieuport, sir?"
36500The news-- the grave news?"
36500The point is, do you answer all our questions, or must we exercise pressure?
36500The question is, what''s our plan?"
36500The trouble is, how am I to prove my identity?
36500There, did I not say so?"
36500They have taken away all the horses, all the carts----""And our motor- cycles?"
36500Think you''ll manage it with that leg of yours?"
36500Thinking better of it?"
36500We''ll take charge of your prisoners; can you run alongside?"
36500Well, where have you been to?
36500Were you hurt?"
36500What are you doing here?"
36500What are you doing in Brussels at this lively moment?"
36500What are you doing in Brussels?"
36500What craft is that?"
36500What do you say, Rollo?"
36500What has befallen you?"
36500What has hit you?"
36500What is the meaning of it all?"
36500What might you be doing here?"
36500What on earth are you doing here?"
36500What on earth possesses you to suggest Liége?
36500What''s that?"
36500What''s the excitement?"
36500What''s the meaning of this?"
36500What''s yours?"
36500What, pray, has a dispatch- rider to do with Taubes?"
36500Whatever have you been doing with yourselves?
36500Where are the British now?"
36500Where are you making for?"
36500Where are your identity papers?
36500Where do you propose to go?"
36500Where is Barrington?"
36500Where, then, was the Belgian force that was supposed to be holding the district between Diest and Tirlemont?
36500Which is the Liége road?"
36500Who, sir, is my accuser?"
36500Why should they be?"
36500Why this delay?"
36500Why, what''s the matter?"
36500Will you, before you depart, honour me by taking a glass of wine?"
36500Without a moment''s delay the General asked:"Can they read a map?"
36500Would there be enough water to clear the sill of the basin?
36500Would you do harm to anything made by your friends the English?"
36500Would you like to see him?
36500You are resolute?"
36500You are?
36500You can?
36500You comprehend?"
36500You hit too?"
36500You say that part of your convoy is destined for Namur?
36500You understand?
36500You understand?
36500You understand?"
36500You''re on your beam- ends?"
36500Your bicycle?
36500Your name is Barrington?"
36500_ Café au lait_?
4230''Scuse me, Mistah Swift, but what''s dat yo''said?
4230A journey? 4230 A tramp?
4230A visitor? 4230 Ah, it''s you, is it, Tom?"
4230Ah-- er-- um-- is-- Why, it''s you, is n''t it?
4230Albany? 4230 Albany?
4230Am I going by train?
4230Am I near Albany? 4230 Am dat so, Mistah Swift?"
4230And so you think they are up to some mischief, Tom?
4230Are we-- is it damaged any, Andy?
4230Are you Mr. Barton Swift?
4230Are you a tramp now, or in some other disguise?
4230Are you acquainted around here?
4230Are you going to leave him here like this?
4230Are you hurt? 4230 Are you hurt?"
4230Are you much hurt, Tom? 4230 Are you much hurt?"
4230Are you sure the man was one of those you saw in the restaurant?
4230Are you sure the model and papers are gone? 4230 Are you sure, Rad?"
4230Are youse goin''far on dat rig- a- ma- jig?
4230As far as that?
4230Ask him if he knows any one named Swift?
4230But ca n''t you fight them in the courts?
4230But how does it happen that you are trusting yourself in a car like this?
4230But what in the world is Rad up to?
4230But where am I? 4230 But why do n''t you use your brake?
4230But why is she up so early?
4230But, in the meanwhile, ca n''t you make another model and get a patent yourself?
4230Ca n''t you do anything to stop them, dad? 4230 Ca n''t you see?"
4230Can I do anything for you right away?
4230Can I give you a lift?
4230Can that be Munson or Dwight coming back?
4230Can you walk, or shall we carry you?
4230Dad,he exclaimed,"why could n''t I go on my motor- cycle?"
4230Did he get anything? 4230 Did he have a thick, brown beard?"
4230Did yo''done put a charm on mah bresh?
4230Did you come to do some work?
4230Did you get any trace of the thieves? 4230 Did you have any luck, dad?"
4230Did you say you''d seen him?
4230Did you see any one running away as you came up?
4230Do n''t you see that you nearly upset me?
4230Do you know him?
4230Do you know much about him? 4230 Do you know their names?"
4230Do you live near here?
4230Do you think they''ll do that, dad?
4230Do you think this man was one of the crowd of financiers?
4230Do you think those scoundrels are there yet?
4230Do you think you can repair it?
4230Do you want the receipt for the registered letter sent to you here or at Shopton?
4230Does he think he can climb that, or is he giving an exhibition by showing how close he can come and not hit it?
4230Does yo''t''ink I can?
4230Father,said Tom earnestly,"may I buy that machine off him?"
4230Go to Albany, dad?
4230Have you killed him?
4230Have you seen anything of the thieves?
4230He was?
4230He''s had experience that way, eh, Featherton?
4230How about the fellow you traded the cracked grindstone to, Rad?
4230How am I going to find it in all this dust and darkness?
4230How did he look?
4230How far is that from Centreford?
4230How long will it take to polish them?
4230How many men have you?
4230How many miles is it?
4230How-- why-- are you the young man I nearly ran down this morning?
4230Hurt?
4230I heard your gun, and I imagined--"Did you think you had been shot? 4230 I was, eh?"
4230I wonder if I''ll meet Andy Foger and his cronies again?
4230I wonder if Munson and Dwight are at the lake yet?
4230I wonder if he was some ordinary tramp, looking for what he could steal, or if he was one of the gang after dad''s invention?
4230I wonder if that can be the place?
4230I wonder if that was Happy Harry?
4230I wonder if that''s him again?
4230I wonder if this is ever going to stop?
4230I wonder if those are the thieves? 4230 I wonder if those men are coming back here?"
4230I wonder what he wants?
4230I wonder what they did to me? 4230 I wonder where I am?
4230I wonder where he came from, and where he''s going?
4230I wonder which one this is?
4230If you do n''t mind,he went on,"would you just as soon move that gun a little?
4230Invented anything new?
4230Is he acquainted around here?
4230Is it writ on it anywhere?
4230Is that all?
4230Is that so?
4230Is that what you call one of them two- wheeled lickity- split things that a man sits on the middle of an''goes like chain- lightning?
4230Is this the road to Centreford?
4230Just where is this old house, Rad?
4230Kin youse go far on it?
4230Mattah, Mistah Swift? 4230 Maybe I will some day, but, speaking of autos, did you see the one Andy Foger has?"
4230Me? 4230 Motor- boat?
4230Mr. Damon,said Tom quickly,"will you sell me that motor- cycle?"
4230My name? 4230 Near the lake, eh?"
4230Now I wonder if I''d better try to get to it from the water or the land side?
4230Oh, Mr. Damon,cried Tom,"will you help me capture a gang of thieves?
4230Oh, is that all?
4230Oh, you are, eh?
4230On business or pleasure?
4230Robbed you, did they? 4230 Say, Burke,"called the man at the door,"have you taken the motor- boat?"
4230Swindled? 4230 The inventor of the Swift safety lamp, and the turbine motor?"
4230The new turbine motor, dad?
4230Then may I go, dad?
4230Then what do you think is their object?
4230Then you admit I may be on the right track, dad?
4230Think this storm will hold off until I get home?
4230Want a ride?
4230Was that it? 4230 Was you in that automobile?"
4230We''ll go outside now, and look--"Is any one killed? 4230 Well, how goes it?"
4230What are you doing that for?
4230What can they be doing here?
4230What can you do, dad?
4230What did he tell them?
4230What did you tell him?
4230What do you mean by getting in the way like that?
4230What do you mean by nearly running me down? 4230 What do you mean to do?"
4230What do you think it was?
4230What do you think they are up to, dad?
4230What do you want?
4230What do you want?
4230What fo''I call him Boomerang? 4230 What for, dad?"
4230What good will that do?
4230What is it, Tom?
4230What seems to be the trouble, and how did you come to own this sawmill?
4230What was the man''s name?
4230What would you do?
4230What''s dat''bout mush?
4230What''s he up to?
4230What''s that?
4230What''s that?
4230What''s that?
4230What''s the matter with the new churn?
4230What''s the matter with you? 4230 What''s the matter, Rad?"
4230What''s the matter, Rad?
4230What''s the matter, Tom?
4230What''s the matter; getting nervous?
4230What''s the matter? 4230 What''s the matter?
4230What, that old grindstone that was broken in two, and that you fastened together with concrete?
4230What? 4230 Whatever are we coming to?
4230Whatever are you doing?
4230Whatever happened to you?
4230Where did you blow in from?
4230Where''s dad?
4230Where''s dad?
4230Which finger was the blue ring tattooed on?
4230Which house did you mean, Rad?
4230Which one?
4230Which way did he go, Rad, after he left you?
4230Who are you, anyhow? 4230 Who be you, anyhow, and what you doin''here?"
4230Who be you, anyhow?
4230Who do you suppose he could have been?
4230Who fired that shot?
4230Who is it?
4230Who is the telegram signed by?
4230Who would have thought he''d have a motor- boat waiting for him? 4230 Why did n''t I think of it before?"
4230Why do n''t you invent an automobile or an airship?
4230Why do you ask, Tom?
4230Why do you call him Boomerang?
4230Why not? 4230 Why not?"
4230Why set this boat adrift?
4230Why, Rad, what are you doing?
4230Why, Tom,she went on hurriedly as she saw how excited he was,"whatever has happened?"
4230Why, do n''t you like it?
4230Why, do you think he gave out information concerning your work?
4230Why?
4230Wonder if he bent any of my spokes?
4230Wonder if the owner can be near?
4230Yes; why not?
4230Yo''doan''t s''pose yo''kin fix dis yeah moah so''s I kin use it, does yo'', Mistah Swift?
4230You are sure you will not regret your bargain, Mr. Damon? 4230 You certainly seem to have,"agreed Tom"But why is Boomerang so obstinate?
4230You did n''t meet any more of those men, did you? 4230 You do n''t mean that old, broken one?"
4230Your motor- cycle?
4230A moment later, however, he heard some one approaching through the woods behind him, and a voice called out:"What are you doing?
4230Any of your plans or models, dad?"
4230Are you all right now?"
4230Are you both murdered?"
4230As they bent over him he opened his eyes and asked faintly:"Where am I?
4230Back so soon?"
4230Baggert?"
4230Bless my coat- tails, but is anything wrong?"
4230Bless my very existence, but has anything happened?"
4230But am yo''suah dat mah mule Boomerang ai n''t hurted?"
4230But are you hurt?"
4230But have you anything special to do, Tom?"
4230But say, is youse goin''to let me have dat quarter?
4230But the question is where to stay?"
4230But what about you?"
4230But what will I do with him after I get him?
4230But why ca n''t you turn around and look for yourself?"
4230But why do n''t you try to get up?"
4230Buy a broken motor- cycle?"
4230By the way, what''s your name?"
4230Can they be afraid of me?"
4230Can you?"
4230Crawford?"
4230Damon?"
4230Dat''s in Jersey, ai n''t it?"
4230Did I hurt you much?"
4230Did I upset my tea?"
4230Did he harm you?"
4230Did yo''eber see dem Australian black mans what go around wid a circus t''row dem crooked sticks dey calls boomerangs?"
4230Did yo''eber work fer a blacksmith?"
4230Did you see anything of a tramp around here while I was away?"
4230Did you wish to see me?"
4230Do you expect burglars, Master Tom?"
4230Do you feel well enough to go?
4230Do you know the man?"
4230Do you mean it?"
4230Do you think he imagined he could come here and get possession of some of your secrets?"
4230Does Mr. Crawford think he can?"
4230Does he keep many servants?
4230Does he live near his workshops?
4230File an injunction, or something like that?"
4230G''lang, now, wo n''t yo''?
4230Has your father any idea of giving the work he has been turning over to me to some other firm?"
4230Have you seen it?"
4230Help you?
4230How did it happen?
4230How did it happen?"
4230How else could you go?"
4230How far did those scoundrels carry me, and what has become of my motor- cycle?"
4230How is it some one was n''t killed?"
4230How long will you be away?"
4230How much would you want for it?"
4230How?"
4230I do n''t s''pose youse meant to upset me?"
4230I wonder if I''d better take chances and spring it on him that I''m on to his game?"
4230I wonder if he could come here?
4230I wonder if he tried to get my machine away from me?
4230I wonder if he''s after me yet?"
4230I wonder if they took off an arm or leg?
4230I wonder if this one succeeded?
4230I wonder if those are n''t the men who are after the patent model?
4230I wonder what I had better do?"
4230I wonder what has become of Jake Burke?
4230I wonder what he''s been doing all this while, that he has n''t gotten any farther than this?
4230I wonder what hospital I''m in?
4230I wonder where I can stay?"
4230I wonder where he and his crowd are going?"
4230I wonder where my motor- cycle is?
4230I wonder who he was?
4230I wonder who that man was, and what he wanted by asking so many personal questions about dad?"
4230I wonder who the men were?"
4230Is Mrs. Baggert murdered?
4230Is he dead?"
4230Is that the letter?"
4230Is the boat gone?"
4230Is the envelope open?"
4230Is the motor- cycle much damaged?"
4230Is your father going to use them in a new machine?"
4230It struck me as rather curious that a woman would trust herself all alone in one of them things; would n''t it you?"
4230Let''s see what can I do?"
4230Let''s see, you said your name was Quick, did n''t you?"
4230Let''s see-- what is the first thing to do?"
4230May I ask where you obtained your information concerning it?"
4230Now I axes yo''fair, Mistah Swift, ai n''t I got lots ob trouble?"
4230Now the question is, how can I get help to capture them?"
4230Now what had I better do?"
4230Now, how to get closer?"
4230OFF TO ALBANY"Did you catch him, Tom?"
4230Or any stables or fences t''whitewash?
4230SUSPICIOUS ACTIONS"Are you hurt?"
4230Say, youse could n''t lend me a quarter, could youse?"
4230Sell you that mass of junk?"
4230Shall I send for the doctor?"
4230Shall we look at it?"
4230Suddenly he uttered an exclamation,"Rad, have you been monkeying with this machinery?"
4230Swift was saying:"What do you want?
4230Swift, eh?
4230Swift?
4230Swift?"
4230The men who are trying to get my invention?"
4230Then the inventor asked:"Do you know that man?
4230Was n''t that right?"
4230We do need some white washing done, do n''t we, dad?"
4230Whar did yo''say, yo''had some whitewashin''t''do?"
4230What about him, Tom?
4230What are his habits?
4230What are you trying to do-- kill me?
4230What do you suppose they wanted?"
4230What do you want sneaking around here?"
4230What do you want?
4230What happened?"
4230What happened?"
4230What happened?"
4230What has happened?
4230What would his father say?
4230What''s wrong now?
4230What''s your name, anyhow, cully?"
4230Where am I?"
4230Where am dat work yo''was speakin''ob?"
4230Where?"
4230Who are the men working with you to defraud my father of his rights?"
4230Who be you, anyhow-- a tramp?"
4230Who is that person, Simpson?"
4230Who''s hurt?
4230Why did he leave so hurriedly?"
4230Why did n''t you sound your horn?
4230Why do n''t you ring a bell or blow a horn when you''re coming?"
4230Why is it so dark and cold?"
4230Why were you called that?"
4230Why, did yo''want t''see dat man, Mistah Swift?"
4230Why?"
4230Why?"
4230Will you let me go, dad?"
4230Will you let me take you in my car?
4230Will you ride with us, Tom Swift, or on that dangerous motor- cycle?"
4230Wonder how long he''ll keep me a prisoner?"
4230Would yo''mind tellin''me if dat ar''mule am still alive?"
4230Yesterday, you said it was, you saw Happy Harry?
4230Yet, if they have n''t, why are they staying in the old house?
4230Yo''ai n''t got no chicken coops yo''wants cleaned out, has yo''?
4230Yo''see dis yeah lawn- moah?"
4230You see, I was going quite slowly, and--""You call dat slow, when youse hit me an''knocked me down?"
4230You want to set the place afire?
4230but what has happened to me?"
4230he exclaimed pleasantly, Then, seeing a look of alarm on the lad''s face, he went on:"I hope I did n''t shoot in your direction, young man; did I?"
11469A stowaway, eh?
11469Ai n''t he the broth of a lad? 11469 Ai n''t you comin''in?"
11469An''that old stiff signaled to him to make his getaway?
11469And go back?
11469And have returned to China to live in peace and comfort?
11469And how far to Peking by the road?
11469And in the meantime you''ll tell him that I have gone away?
11469And make terms with a pack of rioters?
11469And my friends?
11469And now what?
11469And so,he said,"you think we are spread out along this road for the conspirators to grab off?"
11469And the machines are gone for good?
11469And the revolutionists will win?
11469And they are strong?
11469And they went away with this fellow?
11469And they will fight for that?
11469And what''s the matter with me goin''?
11469And wounded?
11469And you claim a cablegram which is here? 11469 And you have captured them?"
11469And you have the Secret Service code?
11469And you think Hans, if it is he, will understand?
11469And you think they will hang about the flying squadron until they recover what they have lost?
11469And you went to sleep with all this on your mind and slept up to within a quarter of an hour of the time set for action?
11469And you were engaged in it?
11469And yours, Jack?
11469Are all the men you took from the ship with you?
11469Are we never going to get anything to eat?
11469Are you an officer of the telegraph company?
11469Are you there? 11469 Boys,"he said, in as matter- of- fact tone as he could assume,"what did Frank and Jack say when they left the camp?"
11469But he did n''t have the powder, or the dynamite, or whatever thing he figured on blowing us up with, in his pockets, did he?
11469But how am I to get it to- night?
11469But how did you get here?
11469But how did you get here?
11469But how in the Dickens did Hans ever get to you? 11469 But how, when, why?"
11469But why does he remain inactive? 11469 But why should the Secret Service department put you in such peril?"
11469But why should this man be doing business with the rebels?
11469But why were they not given me before?
11469But why?
11469But, say, did you ever see anythin''like that vanishin''priest? 11469 By the way,"said the consul,"where are the papers you took from the captain of the Shark-- the boat you fought with your submarine?"
11469Ca n''t I?
11469Call of the pack?
11469Can he make a tree three hundred years old in a minute?
11469Can you make the talk come from behind me?
11469Can you run?
11469Cut it out?
11469Did he brush it all away?
11469Did n''t he know that you were expecting instructions from Washington while on the way to Peking?
11469Did n''t you see him crowd out with the marine officer?
11469Did n''t you see them when you went back?
11469Did you speak?
11469Did you?
11469Do you hear them buzzing?
11469Do you know him to be Ned Nestor?
11469Do you know the way out of this?
11469Do you know what that means?
11469Do you know why we are going on motorcycles?
11469Do you recognize the fellow with his disguise off? 11469 Do you see the fine work done with the seal which made this impression?"
11469Do you see the light in the cellar? 11469 Do you think he''s on the level?"
11469Do you think they are Chinamen?
11469Do you think we can get him on to Peking?
11469Dressed in native costume?
11469European police?
11469Even if I found it in a cellar by the side of a half barrel of gunpowder to which a lighted fuse had been attached?
11469Finders keepers?
11469Found somethin''?
11469From Washington?
11469Got a light?
11469Got clear away, did he?
11469Had n''t you better make your case-- if you can make it at all-- in the courts?
11469Have you a match?
11469Have you the message with you?
11469Here, kid, where are you going?
11469How badly are the machines damaged?
11469How could he make the journey on foot, through a country suspicious of every foreigner? 11469 How could you have been?"
11469How could you mix with them?
11469How did it affect your appetite?
11469How did the sneak who set the fuse on fire ever get down there?
11469How did you do it?
11469How did you do it?
11469How did you get to China?
11469How did you know there was danger inside?
11469How did you know?
11469How do you know?
11469How do you like it?
11469How long has he been loitering about the room?
11469How many of the Chinks did you catch?
11469How much money was offered you to hold this message?
11469How much will you take for a month in vaudeville?
11469How the Old Harry did he get here?
11469How?
11469How?
11469I presume I can see him?
11469I wonder if old Chee is still asleep from the dope?
11469I wonder if the little scamp is in trouble again?
11469I wonder if they are out in force?
11469I wonder what''s keeping Ned?
11469If he had reached the old house first, he would have waited here for us, would n''t he?
11469If he is here?
11469If they should try to hold us here, what?
11469In this dump?
11469Is it in the code of the Secret Service?
11469Is that a promise or a threat?
11469Is that true?
11469Is there another way out?
11469Is this yours?
11469Japanese- lookin''chap?
11469Let''s see,grinned Frank,"we were to have a flying squadron of marines with us?
11469May we go back to the fire?
11469Murdered? 11469 My friends?"
11469No, it does n''t; yet what is he stopping here for? 11469 Now, what do you know about that?"
11469Oh, they wo n''t?
11469Oh, yes, easy, but how did you do it?
11469Our friends?
11469Out for a walk?
11469Perhaps he thought the truth would frighten you off?
11469Say, are we ever goin''back after that gold?
11469Say, do you think you have run''em down at last?
11469Say, how would you wild animals like to take a jaunt on your motorcycles to- night? 11469 Say,"the boy said, excitement in voice and manner,"did n''t you leave Frank and Jack at the camp when you left?"
11469Shall I go get him?
11469Shall I risk an answer?
11469Shall I take them in charge?
11469Shall we go in?
11469Shall you go on to- night?
11469So soon? 11469 So you are now the only one to look to for the history of this bit of deviltry?"
11469So, they were using rockets?
11469Suppose the Chinks attack the men left behind?
11469Suppose we all go back on our machines, and really see something of the country?
11469Suppose we go in and ask some ordinary question?
11469Suppose we make a little noise?
11469Suppose,Ned said,"suppose I turn you over to the revolutionary leaders, with a statement of what you have just said?
11469Telegrams in China?
11469That waiter?
11469The fuse went out, did n''t it? 11469 The man who warned you is Lieutenant Rae?"
11469Then he understood, all right?
11469Then this is final?
11469Then we''d better be on double guard?
11469Then what can be done with them?
11469Then what can we do?
11469Then why do n''t we ask this good, wise, benevolent, sane, and all the rest of it government to keep the revolutionary party off Uncle Sam?
11469Then you do n''t know that they have gone back to Taku?
11469Then you think he knew there was something wrong because we did not meet you?
11469They will not be attacked there?
11469This man Rae?
11469This was not used?
11469To scare you?
11469To the embassy?
11469Very well,the Captain said,"now will you tell me how you set this trap so, cleverly?"
11469Walk?
11469Was he there with your captors? 11469 Was that stamp made by the seal you just hid away?"
11469Was the stamp made with the seal you have with you?
11469Was there a Chink who spoke English like a native?
11469We ca n''t fight a whole nation, can we? 11469 We do n''t know much about China, do we?"
11469Well, suppose he is now here trying to get something in exchange for the gold which lies at the bottom of the Pacific?
11469Well, supposing, for the sake of argument, that I was at Taku, what has that to do with this brutal and illegal arrest?
11469Well,Jack said, more to break the strange silence than for any other purpose,"why do n''t you say something?"
11469Well,Jimmie asked, of Ned,"did he tumble?
11469Well,Ned went on, laughing,"we had a high wind yesterday, did n''t we?
11469Well?
11469Were these men present?
11469Were you to withhold the message altogether, or were you merely to delay this young man?
11469What are we halting here for?
11469What are you going to do about delivering the cablegram?
11469What are you going to do about that runaway kid?
11469What are you hiding back there in the darkness for? 11469 What are you trying to do?"
11469What did you do that for?
11469What did you go an''sit down there an''wait for?
11469What did you say?
11469What do they do with them?
11469What do you make of the mummery now going on?
11469What do you mean by coming in here and giving orders?
11469What do you mean by that? 11469 What do you mean by that?"
11469What do you mean by that?
11469What do you propose?
11469What do you think we ought to do with you?
11469What do you think?
11469What do you want?
11469What does he mean by that?
11469What does it mean?
11469What does the accuser say?
11469What does this mean?
11469What for?
11469What government do you represent?
11469What has this to do with my case?
11469What have you been doing?
11469What is going on out there?
11469What is it?
11469What is it?
11469What is it?
11469What is it?
11469What is it?
11469What is the trouble?
11469What is this Rae person doing here? 11469 What kind of a game is this?"
11469What kind of a hotel is this?
11469What kind of a play house is this?
11469What makes you think so?
11469What makes you think so?
11469What nation is it that is protecting the imperial government of China?
11469What national seal made that stamp on the wax you have in your pocket, Ned?
11469What next?
11469What next?
11469What they doing to Ned and Jimmie?
11469What was an American doing in that bunch?
11469What was the motive?
11469What''s coming off here?
11469What''s the answer now?
11469What''s the answer to that?
11469What''s the difficulty, kid?
11469What''s the trouble?
11469What''s the use of all that if the Chinks sit out there like blooming cigar- store images and never give a hint as to where we are? 11469 What''s your name?"
11469What''s your notion?
11469Where are the marines?
11469Where are we?
11469Where are you going?
11469Where did he come from?
11469Where did the Chinks go?
11469Where did they ascend from?
11469Where did you get it?
11469Where did you get this information you''re favoring us with? 11469 Where did you leave Frank and Jack?"
11469Where do you live?
11469Where is Captain Martin, of the marines?
11469Where is Captain Martin, the officer in charge?
11469Where is he?
11469Where is he?
11469Where is the other prisoner?
11469Where is this mysticism of the East located?
11469Where is your uniform?
11469Where?
11469Which is Ned Nestor?
11469Which man?
11469Who are these men?
11469Who bribed you?
11469Who did it, then?
11469Who did it?
11469Who directed you to the house where I found you?
11469Who is it that is doing the talking?
11469Who met you in the library at the house you attempted to destroy?
11469Who was it that ran away?
11469Who was it?
11469Who''s Hans?
11469Who''s first?
11469Why daylight?
11469Why did n''t some one follow him?
11469Why did n''t you get a move on?
11469Why did n''t you notify the officer then in charge of the squad?
11469Why did n''t you pull him out?
11469Why did n''t you say something of an accuser before?
11469Why did they dope her?
11469Why do n''t you go back to the Pyramids and sleep for another thousand years? 11469 Why do n''t you knock a fellow over?"
11469Why do n''t you out with it, then?
11469Why do n''t you tell us what the danger is?
11469Why do you attribute this outbreak to me?
11469Why do you call her Chee?
11469Why do you ride in the night?
11469Why does n''t he come into the place with a brass band? 11469 Why morning?"
11469Why not?
11469Why this midnight industry? 11469 Why venture out in the storm?"
11469Will you deliver the cablegram?
11469Wo n''t the finding of them men there get her into trouble?
11469Wonder if that old gear- face thinks he can guard us an''sleep, too? 11469 Yes?
11469You are Ned Nestor?
11469You are convinced that these are the people who were sent out to defeat the purpose of our mission?
11469You are taking life easily? 11469 You arranged for this demonstration in case you should be taken?"
11469You can read this code, I suppose?
11469You doubtless recall the time the allied armies were sent to Peking to rescue the foreign ambassadors during the Boxer uprising? 11469 You have just landed?"
11469You have possession of certain documents taken from a certain wreck in the Pacific Ocean?
11469You have the key to the code?
11469You know how the Moores, father an''son, tried to get us on the submarine? 11469 You mean the men you left in the cornfield?"
11469You placed the powder under the house where the wounded men lay?
11469You planned this?
11469You saw Hans?
11469You think there will be a war?
11469You were at Taku?
11469You will deny your own fingerprints, the shoeprints?
11469You''ll do what you can to find them?
11469You''re going to Peking on business?
11469Your proof will assist you when you get there?
11469A cablegram in cipher-- the cipher code of the Secret Service of the United States government?"
11469A wind that tumbled the dust of the streets in upon us?
11469And Lieutenant Scott?
11469And help him hunt Frank and Jack, will you?"
11469And how comes it that he chanced on this building?"
11469And these others?
11469And, after he got away, how did he happen to blunder into the company of our escort?
11469Are you ready?"
11469But?"
11469By the way, I wonder where Jack and Frank are?
11469CHAPTER III A SHOE AND A SURPRISE"What do you mean by that?"
11469CHAPTER V A COLLECTION OF WILD ANIMALS"Well, what do you think of it?"
11469CHAPTER XI THE MYSTICISM OF THE EAST"You remember what the consul said regarding trouble on the road to Peking?"
11469CHAPTER XVIII A BROKEN MATCH SAFE"Why do n''t she go up?"
11469Can it be possible that you were treacherous to both sides?"
11469Could it be possible that the nation to which it belonged had been engaged in this conspiracy?
11469Did he know where you were going?"
11469Do you know where I found it, my friend?"
11469Do you know where your two friends are-- the two who accompanied you here?"
11469Do you see why it went out?"
11469Do you want him to know that we are wise to his game?"
11469Frank nodded and whispered:"Did they get Ned, too?"
11469Give it up, now?"
11469Got that?"
11469Had he escaped from the building, or was he detained in the room he had surreptitiously entered?
11469He advanced upon the priests and demanded:"Will you take me along?"
11469How did he get to Tientsin, anyway?"
11469How did he know where to go?
11469How did this German boy learn all this?"
11469How did you get to China?"
11469How do you like it?"
11469How far must we walk?"
11469How would they be received?
11469How would you like to take a New York special, just now?"
11469How, may I ask?"
11469I wonder how he got hold of Hans?"
11469I wonder how he likes the scene?"
11469I wonder if this gazabo will get Frank and Jack?"
11469I wonder what instructions this Rae person will give Ned?"
11469I wonder where it will be?"
11469If he had indeed escaped, would he have the good sense to hasten to the camp instead of trying to assist his chum single- handed?
11469Is this true?"
11469Machines in good order?"
11469Ned did not know the men as well as he knew the Captain, therefore he asked:"The men will obey your orders to the letter?
11469Ned pointed to one and spoke to Hans:"Can you ride?"
11469Ned said, then he stooped over and called out to Jimmie:"Is the fuse out?"
11469Nestor?"
11469Nice to be so exclusive, is n''t it?"
11469Nothing odd about that, is there?"
11469Now, how did he ever get to Tientsin, and how did he locate us?"
11469Now, what do you think he''s doin''here?"
11469Now, what shall we do?
11469Sandy, who had been listening in silence to the explanations which had been made, now asked:"How many Chinks are there out there?"
11469Say, Ned, what do you know about them callers you''re goin''to have?
11469Say, Ned,"he added,"why ca n''t we cut it out?
11469Say, how would you fellers like a chair in front of the grate in the little old Black Bear Patrol clubroom, in the village of N. Y.?
11469Say,"he added, with a grin,"ai n''t this tie- up game getting stale?
11469See?
11469See?"
11469Shall we sneak out of a window, or remain here and find out what he wants?"
11469Suppose we knock this fellow on the head?
11469Suppose we wait until daylight and then make a rush?"
11469The latter asked:"Where''s Ned?"
11469The only question in my mind is this: Will they let us alone until daylight?
11469There was a smile on his face as he asked:"Do Taoist priests accost strangers on the highway?"
11469Think they are sufficiently soused with opium?"
11469Vot issit if I hand himone?
11469Vot?"
11469We had to keep cases on this chap, did n''t we?"
11469What I want to know is, where did you catch him, and who pays you to bring it to us, and who pays him to pay you to feed it to us?
11469What about it, Gulf of Pechili and the Peiho river Ned?"
11469What are the lives of a dozen or more to the prosperity of millions?
11469What did you pull me out of me covers for?"
11469What did you see?"
11469What did you wake me up for, anyway?"
11469What do you think of that?"
11469What does it mean?"
11469What inducements were offered you to keep the cablegram away from this young man?
11469What nations did they represent, or pretend to represent?"
11469What was it?
11469What were they to get for the gold?"
11469What would be your fate?
11469What''s the matter with this rice, kid, and this meat pie?"
11469What''s your name?
11469What?
11469What?"
11469What?"
11469When do you expect to meet with these foxy chaps?"
11469Where does he live, and is he black, white, or red?
11469Where is he?"
11469Where is the paper to which the seal was attached?"
11469Where is there an eatery?"
11469Where was Jimmie?
11469Where''s that Secret Service feller that was goin''to set the pace for us?"
11469Who are you, and where did you come from?
11469Who were they?
11469Why ca n''t you boys behave yourselves?"
11469Why should he want to get us into a war?"
11469Will that answer?"
11469Without trial?"
11469Would they be greeted with treacherous words, or with a murderous fusillade of bullets and knives stabbing in the darkness?
11469Would you know this lad you speak of if you should see him again?"
11469You claim to be Ned Nestor?"
11469You were about to start on without your final instructions?"
11469he added,"where is Ned?"
11469he said, feeling about in the darkness,"what do you think of my ruinnin''into a sea soldier an''getting chucked through the hole the carpenter left?"
