32273What else was there for them to do?
32273What is it you have got to say to him?"
32273What queer low ship was that?
32273What was he to do?
32273What was the commodore''s plan, do you ask?
32273What was the_ Carondelet_ like, do you ask?
32273What was to be done with it?
32273What was to be done?
32273What was to be done?
32273When they got close together Captain Jones hailed,--"What ship is that?"
32273Where was Captain Jones all the time, and what was he doing?
32273Where, now, was the_ Levant_?
32273Who will join in to put an end to her?"
32273Would not he and his men sink with her?
32273Would you like to hear about the other_ Wasps_?
32273Would you not think that the powerful nations of Europe would have soon put a stop to this?
17547And has the material of the navy no connection with this bond?
17547And if he is to act on the offensive, what direction will his operations take; will he secure an advance base; and if so, where?
17547And this should not amaze us; for where does the Bible say or intimate that love among nations will ever be brought about?
17547And what is"power,"in the sense in which officials, both military and civilian, use the word?
17547Are we any more artistic, strong, or beautiful than the Greeks in their palmy days?
17547Are we braver than the Spartans, more honest than the Chinese, more spiritual than the Hindoos, more religious than the Puritans?
17547At what time did the change occur whereby the instrument employed dominated the human being who employed it?
17547But does any military writer condemn Prussia for having made assurance too sure?
17547But does any naval man believe this wholly?
17547But how in a battleship carrying a thousand men does the coal- passer in the fire- room do as the captain on the bridge desires?
17547But is it not equally difficult to associate carelessness with Napoleon?
17547But what kind of power?
17547But who will go so far?
17547But why should an enemy take the trouble to invade us?
17547Can any worse situation be imagined-- except the situation that would follow when the enemy arrived?
17547Can commerce impart the external force necessary to divert nations from that path?
17547Can we really believe that they take no part and feel no pride in those magnificent pageants on the ocean?
17547China may attract the attention of some as an instance of longevity; but is China a nation in the usual meaning of the word?
17547Civilization in the past has not operated to soften the relations of nations with each other, so why should it do so now?
17547Did Russia fear that Japan would force the people of her vast territory into starvation?
17547Did Spain do so in our last war?
17547Did these things occur?
17547Does not a nation give up fighting just as soon as it sees that further fighting would do more harm than good?
17547For instance, the question is asked:"Do you consider it probable that such or such a thing would happen?"
17547Has any country ever fought until the people as a mass were starving?
17547Has starving anything to do with the matter?
17547How can the General Staff at the Navy Department be trained?
17547How can we have?
17547How could our scouts find out anything whatever about the size, composition, and formation of the enemy-- even of his speed and direction of advance?
17547How could we ascertain?
17547How is it done?
17547How long shall any nation stay upon the table- land?
17547How was it accomplished?
17547If Japan has learned our secret and mastered it in fifty years, will China not be able to do it in less than fifty years?
17547Is it essential, and if so, why?
17547Is it not that the helmsman acts through the medium of mechanism, while the generals act through the medium of men?
17547Is not modern civilization, with its attendant complexities, rivalries, and jealousies, provocative of quarrels rather than the reverse?
17547Is not the superior civilization of the present day a mechanical civilization pure and simple?
17547Is there any change toward peaceful methods now?
17547Is there_ no_ probability of this?
17547No general answer can be given to the question:"In what detail shall the orders be?"
17547Now what does the questioner mean by"probable,"and what does the officer think he means?
17547Now what kind of"something"would be done under the stimulus of the outbreak of a war for which a country had not laid its plans?
17547Now why are the office boy and the darky stimulated by these games?
17547Of what parts should it be composed?
17547Shall the United States take action now or wait until it is too late?
17547Since when has a navy consisted of brass and iron?
17547Since when has the mind and character of man taken a place subordinate to matter?
17547So what is the outlook for the future, both for the United States and other countries?
17547So what reasonable hope does even Christianity give us that war between nations will cease?
17547Strictly speaking, how can there be any courage except moral courage?
17547The latter is the easier way; is it the better?
17547These analogies may seem forced-- but are they?
17547This being the case, what forces exist that may reasonably be expected to change that trend?
17547This brings us to the important question,"how powerful should our navy be?"
17547This may seem absurd, and perhaps it is; but why?
17547This raises the question:"What units shall we need?"
17547To what are these misses due?
17547WILL THE IMPORTANCE OF NAVAL POWER INCREASE OR DECREASE?
17547What are we toiling for?
17547What do you do?
17547What is that line?
17547What principles should be followed in designing, preparing, and operating it in order to get the maximum return for the money expended?
17547What professional calculator, what lawyer''s clerk was ever more careful than Napoleon was, when dealing with problems of war?
17547Where shall it be gotten?
17547Which is the more powerful ship?
17547Who should examine the reports?
17547Who was ever more attentive to details, who more industrious, who more untiring?
17547Why have they endured longer than the others?
17547Why would she not?
17547Why?
17547Will civilization, commerce, or Christianity impart that force?
17547Will other countries seek foreign trade?
17547With Map PREFACE What is the navy for?
17547With such an example before her, should we be surprised that China has also become inoculated with the virus of commercial and political ambitions?
17547Would Great Britain interfere in our behalf?
60196Alive? 60196 All right?"
60196And now that stunt is out of fashion?
60196And what do these sailors do?
60196Any letters?
60196Any more information in regard to this present trip?
60196Any name on the boat, Hardy?
60196Any one down for leave?
60196Anybody on sick list?
60196Anything go for you?
60196Been here long?
60196Boys,said he,"where_ would_ we be if the civilians refused to tell?"
60196But are not our subs sometimes mistaken for Germans?
60196But once you get beyond the swept channels at the harbour mouths, what then?
60196Calm?
60196Dalton''s on the horse boat, is n''t he?
60196Did not you think that wreckage a couple of miles back looked pretty fresh? 60196 Did you fly the flag as you came in?"
60196Did you see any sign of the submarine?
60196Do n''t you want a cap or something?
60196Do you see her?
60196First of all, about how many of you are there helping to make it home- like for Fritz in this amiable spot?
60196Found her yet, sir?
60196Going fishing?
60196Had I been to Base X? 60196 How many men here?"
60196I suppose the time is always shifting and changing?
60196Is n''t this about the place where the_ Welsh Prince_ got hers?
60196Like candy from a baby, I''ll take your coin this day, And have a high old time and-- Say, how did you get that way?
60196Listen, did n''t you hear something then?
60196Nice boat, is n''t she? 60196 Now while you are beating the waters for them, what about the fish himself?"
60196Playing dead? 60196 Say, this is sure some burg, Tho''it ai n''t the U.S.A., But did you pipe the classy Jane, That passed us on the quay?
60196See any Germans?
60196See anything?
60196Sometimes, then, in the murk of night, a destroyer must bump into one by sheer good luck?
60196Suppose that you manage to injure a fish, what then?
60196Suppose the Germans try to reach the British coast?
60196The fish himself? 60196 To- night?
60196Was it very loud, Williams?
60196Well what do you think of that?
60196Well, how and where do you fish?
60196Well, you''ve seen the war both on land and on sea; which service do you prefer... the army or the Navy?
60196What about the mine problem?
60196What are you doing this morning, Bill?
60196What depth are we now?
60196What depth can you go?
60196What do you do?
60196What do you think of camouflage?
60196What do you think you are, anyway-- Hell- Roaring Jake the Storm King?
60196What do you use?
60196What does a real_ gob_ want with a wrist watch?
60196What happened then?
60196What happened then?
60196What''s doing?
60196What''s it like up above there in a balloon? 60196 What''s that sound?"
60196What''s the news?
60196What''s the programme, now?
60196When do you hold Sunday services?
60196Where are we now?
60196Where did it strike?
60196Where is she, O''Farrell?
60196Where was he?
60196Where, then, are the German cruising grounds? 60196 Why is it then that the fleet does n''t lose ships when out on these expeditions?"
60196Wot''s that?
60196Would n''t you like to come with us?
60196Yes,cries some one else,"but has n''t camouflage on land proved its utility?"
60196You have n''t seen Smithie yet, have you? 60196 You mean to say that the Admiralty actually clears an ocean of mines?"
60196''Ear that?"
60196A daisy, is n''t it?
60196A day or two more and we ran calmly into... Shall we say deleted harbour?
60196A holdup?
60196Are n''t you going to Base L next week?
60196B. TOPSFIELD AND QUINCY, 1919 CONTENTS Preface I An Heroic Journey II Into the Dark III Friend or Foe?
60196But how is your destroyer fisherman to know just what fish are to be caught, and in just what bays and inlets he ought to troll?"
60196But surely the greatest of my obligations is that owed to Secretary Daniels for the personal permission which made possible my journey?
60196Ca n''t you cable London for permission to go?
60196Can you imagine Christmas on a little, storm- bumped submarine some hundred miles off the coast?
60196Did I tell you how I tried to lie down?
60196Did n''t you notice that, Duke?
60196Did you ever hear such a line of bull?
60196Did you spot that concrete runway as you came up?
60196Does n''t their fleet get out once in a while?"
60196Does the Navy demand as much of the sailor as the Army does of the soldier?
60196Ever seen a pink booklet on any of your destroyer trips?
60196Ever try fishing in a place from which the fish have been thoroughly scared away?
60196Great name, is n''t it?
60196Had I been to see the American submarines?
60196Had they any consciousness of the end which time was bringing to them with a giant''s hurrying step?
60196Have n''t you read of naval skirmishes in the North Sea?
60196Have you realized the immense organization which Britain has created especially to fight the submarine?
60196How do you keep the morale up?"
60196How does he impress those companions who share the vigil of the seas?
60196How in the d----l did these particular pictures ever land in this particular corner of south Ireland?
60196How on earth will he ever find his way to the open sea?"
60196I think the marine telling the story wanted very much to utter:"How do you get that way?"
60196III FRIEND OR FOE?
60196Is n''t there always an exquisitely beautiful señorita to be rescued?
60196Is not the"comic sailor"a recognized literary figure?
60196Just what do you mean?"
60196Know who''s aboard her, Robbie?"
60196Over the heads of the vanishing crowd floated, Give''em the axe, the axe, the axe, Where?
60196Pretty short, is n''t it?
60196Said an officer to me:"The future of the submarine?
60196Says''e,''Where''s Ed?''
60196See it?
60196Seeking a quiet place to come up to breathe, to effect repairs, to send out a hurried wireless message?
60196Shaken, you ask?
60196Smithie thinks he saw a Hun yesterday.... Got anything good to read?
60196Suddenly I heard one of''em say:''Where''s the ladder?''
60196The Lima emptied his tankard, And caught the barmaid''s eye,"I''eard them Yanks a tarkin'', But what the bloomin''ell''d they seye?"
60196The Naval Aviation?"
60196The humming?
60196The ragged island, the sense of open space, the fine high buildings,..."say, would n''t you think you were back in America again?"
60196The signal gun of the anti- camouflage squad now having sounded, the assault begins with a demand of"What''s your theory?"
60196To Base Y?
60196Understand?
60196Was she trying to send them to the help of the stricken vessel?
60196Were they cries for help?
60196Were"they"out?
60196What are you up to?"
60196What do you think of the morale here?"
60196What do you think of the news?
60196What had happened in the darkness below those yellow green waves?
60196What is he like, British Jack?
60196What time did you say it was?"
60196What''s it like outside?"
60196What''s the news?
60196What''s the news?
60196When had they their last look at the sun?
60196Where can I find them?"
60196Where were_ they_ then, I have often wondered?
60196Where?
60196Where?
60196Which was it?"
60196Who gets the axe?
60196Why do n''t you go down the coast a few miles and see the outfit at Z?
60196Wonder what''s up?"
60196Yet whoever heard of the"comic soldier"?
60196the last in pure cockney, and a questioning, doubting Thomas voice said:"A raid?"
16634''Aw, pipe down, old grizzle face,''says she;''wot have you got in the bucket?'' 16634 ''Do n''t you ever go home?''
16634''If I get some clothes on and dress all up pretty, will you go swimming with me then?'' 16634 ''Just''cause I ai n''t all dolled up in a lot of clothes?''
16634''Lil,''he says to her, holding out his arms to her,''Lil, will you come home?'' 16634 ''Shame,''I repeated,''ai n''t you got no sense of decency?''
16634''So that bit of stuff is your wife, is it?'' 16634 Ah,"said he thoughtfully,"sort of specialized on the jib- sheet?"
16634An''after I''ve shaved your chest, dear,he asked in a soothing voice,"what do you want me to do with it?"
16634And have you that liniment to rub on your stomach when you have cramps?
16634And how in-- how in-- how did_ he_ happen to get into the conversation?
16634And where do you come from, young gentlemen?
16634Are n''t you a trifle out of uniform, Ardy?
16634Are you Red or Blue?
16634Are you mad?
16634Are you sure, Mr. Savanrola, that he has left the station?
16634Are you the guy the reporter for the camp paper was referring to in his last story?
16634Arn''t you rather young?
16634Aw, Mame, who do you love?
16634But does he know that this is only practise?
16634But what are you going to take?
16634Ca n''t we get a moment alone, Mame?
16634Could anything be fairer than that?
16634Do you enlist for foreign service?
16634Do you keep him in there?
16634Do you need some money, my boy?
16634Do you recall what was the nature of your activities aboard this mysterious craft?
16634Do you want to tie some knots?
16634Do?
16634Does my face make you talk that way?
16634Go? 16634 Going our way?"
16634Have you boys had dinner?
16634Hello, buddy,said the guard,"you back again?
16634Honestly, now, young feller,continued my first tormentor,"are you serious when you try to tell us that that is your chest?"
16634How about your underwear?
16634How are you off for socks?
16634How many Articles are there?
16634How slowly?
16634How''s that?
16634However did you get back so soon?
16634I understand perfectly,said I,"and what, chief, became of the baby?"
16634If I get the doctor to remove my Adam''s Apple,he pleaded wistfully,"do you think you could take me on as a pony?"
16634In what section of the town did you live?
16634Initials?
16634Mister Officer,I gasped, pointing across at this blood- thirsty man,"do n''t you think that he''s just a little too close?
16634Mother,I pleaded,"do n''t you think it is time you were going?
16634No guns at all?
16634Now that ai n''t fair, is it, doc?
16634Oh, Georgie, do you think it fits? 16634 Oh, is that so?"
16634Oh, you do,snapped Mother angrily,"and pray tell me what that reason might be?"
16634On what kind of a boat?
16634Say, buddy,said my opponent, after we had landed quite violently on the exterior of the Mess Hall,"you did n''t git no food at all, did yer?"
16634Sir,thundered a pompous gentleman,"have you any explanation for your surprising conduct?"
16634That''s what you''re here for, is n''t it? 16634 We always take our boys to dinner, do n''t we, dear?"
16634Well, sir,he began briskly,"now that we''ve settled that what do you want me to do to it?"
16634Well, what are you standing around for?
16634Well, who are you?
16634What are they based on?
16634What did he want yer to do, Tony?
16634What did you do at Bar Harbor?
16634What did you do to this jib- sheet?
16634What do you think of him?
16634What do you think these oars are, anyway-- a flock of humming birds? 16634 What ever has happened to our poor, long- suffering navy?"
16634What have you been doing?
16634What is it?
16634What is the Biltmore to a man in uniform, anyway?
16634What on?
16634What shall I do?
16634What yer doin'', Oswald?
16634What''s a Mine Opener?
16634What''s a hackamatack?
16634What''s consuming you, buddy?
16634What''s that?
16634What''s that?
16634What''s that?
16634What''s that?
16634What''s your name?
16634What''s your rating?
16634Whatta you mean, dusta my feet?
16634Where shall I go?
16634Where''s our yeoman?
16634Who is that chorus girl on the end acting frantic?
16634Who is that?
16634Who''s there?
16634Who, may I ask, are you?
16634Whose dog is that?
16634Why ca n''t my boy Oswald have a pretty little eagle on his arm, such as I see so many of the young men up here wearing about the camp?
16634Why do n''t you write a''nut''part for him?
16634Why do you ask, sir?
16634Why does n''t he go away?
16634Why not include spurs?
16634Why, chief,I exclaimed in an aggrieved voice,"is n''t that rather an unappetizing word to apply to a fellow creature?"
16634Why, sir,I replied,"do n''t you think you are slightly overstepping the bounds of good taste?
16634With what?
16634You had such a lovely day for it, did n''t you, dear?
16634You mean to say,he whispered,"that you do n''t know what kind of a boat it was?"
16634''What of him?''
16634( What is it lady?
16634And what have I around me now?
16634And, furthermore,"he added,"the next time Mr. Fogerty attempts to bite me I''m going to put you on report-- savez?"
16634Anyway, why put down the happenings of the past forty- three hours?
16634Cabbage?
16634Can I get you some ice cream?"
16634Death, where is thy sting?"
16634Do you like it?"
16634Do you want me to send it home to your ma, all tied around with a pink ribbon?"
16634Fogerty?"
16634How could I possibly have managed to lose nearly ten thousand men?
16634How did I ever forget to place them in my hammock?
16634How did it ever get into camp anyway, and who ever heard of a ball being so large?
16634How shall I ever be able to hold up my head again in Camp?
16634How shall I ever keep my hands from becoming red?
16634I bet you did n''t know that, did you?"
16634I cried reproachfully,"how could you have forgotten?"
16634I did n''t look it, and I did n''t feel it, but I had forty- three hours of freedom ahead of me, so what did I care?
16634I replied, enraged,"with my chest?"
16634I told Tim, the barkeep, about it last night and all he said was:"What about all those parties we''d planned to have after we were paid off?"
16634I wonder if I can ever be an Ensign with a nose like this?
16634I wonder what makes a guy brutal?

23601How''d you spot him so quick?
23601I wonder why she radioed that?
23601Is he a better friend o''yours than o''me? 23601 Jerk up and down like the legs and arms of the mechanical dolls at the theatre, do n''t they?
23601Look at the big squab with all that war- paint on-- how does she expect any U- boat to overlook her?
23601Lucky? 23601 Man, but they do blaze out, do n''t they?
23601No gainsayin''it, war is''ell, ai n''t it? 23601 Save money as I go along?
23601Say, fellows, I know I got Paul Jones and Barry and McDonough right, but how near was I on Davey Jones and Conyngham? 23601 See that?"
23601See what?
23601Sending a boat? 23601 Shall I tell the steamer''s captain, sir?"
23601Shelling their attenay? 23601 The old man looks up and says like ice:''You got my signal yesterday afternoon?''
23601The tides? 23601 The torpedo- boats''d have the devil''s own time trying to lay aboard to- night, would n''t they?
23601Torpedoed? 23601 Two points off the port bow,"and then, peering doubtfully down at the bridge:"Am I right?"
23601What do you want a sheet of paper for?
23601What the devil you laughing at?
23601What you want?
23601What''s there to weaken about? 23601 When you poke it in one place do n''t it bulge out in another to make up for it?
23601Where were you bound, sir?
23601Which would mean that he would be kept turning his wheels over outside the net all night?
23601Would you mind picking out one spot and staying on it?
23601Yes, yes, but what do you want?
23601You bum, you loafer, you old cart- horse, why do n''t you move up?
23601You did n''t?
23601You do not wish to see me? 23601 You mean that I pay for a first- class ticket on your steamer and then have to walk the deck?"
23601You never read much, I take it, of our history?
23601You''re no mad noo?
23601Your history? 23601 ''Did you get my signal?'' 23601 ''Ero? 23601 ***** The main question is, Have we the spirit to- day? 23601 After the doctor left him he sat up and said:I bet I''ve been as near to a torpedo exploding and getting away with it as anybody in the world, hah?"
23601Ai n''t that a submarine?"
23601Along comes this man this day-- American, English, French, Spanish, who knows?
23601And McDonough?
23601And a little more left in her?
23601And how do you account for her bouncing along at twenty knots or more in a gale of wind and a rough sea, and nothing happening them?
23601And how do you account for that other one we were talking about?
23601And if one of our ships should happen to be handy enough, what can save the submarine from being rammed?
23601And now I wonder what they''re doing over there?
23601And perhaps why all this landing action comes his way?
23601And she''s how far now?
23601And that ought to make for good fighting, do n''t you think?"
23601And what are they saying?
23601And what happens?
23601And what sort are they?
23601And where are you then?
23601Are they doing great work or are they tied up to a dock at the naval base, and their officers and crews roistering ashore?"
23601Are you American?"
23601But how well?
23601But sometimes they do run into things and fetch up?
23601But steady?
23601But there were more than six now-- did not the great United States count?
23601But they come home, do n''t they?
23601But why?
23601But you''ve heard of the American Revolution?"
23601Ca n''t you- all see where you''re going?
23601Ca n''t you- all see where you''re going?
23601Ca n''t you- all see where you''re going?
23601Comprong?
23601Did I not wish to practise my French?
23601Did we feel any difficulty in breathing during all this?
23601Did you ever see any mounted marines?
23601Did you see them to- day?
23601Do you begin to see him as a diplomatic asset?
23601Do you know him longer than I know him?
23601Doc yelled to him, at the same time grabbing up the megaphone and roaring into the night air:"Where you- all going?
23601Does n''t it bounce along, and after a few feet fall easily down again, and up and on and down again?
23601Eighty- two miles?
23601Even if mines were found there after they reported it swept clear, what would that prove?
23601For a top deck?
23601Fuss?
23601Good Lord, do n''t you think she''ll be carrying enough freight?"
23601HER COURSE?
23601HER SPEED?
23601He a hero?
23601He-- but am I boring you?"
23601He----""I say, old chap, it''s all very interesting, exceedingly interesting, but what d''y''say to another little nip before I go?
23601Hero?
23601His crew?
23601How far from that to fighting the heaviest of surface craft-- even to the battleships?
23601How soon can you get here?"
23601I asked him why he should not wish to?
23601I say, who are they-- Presidents or senators or that sort, or what?"
23601If he starts off like that, what d''y''s''pose he''ll be batting by morning?"
23601If men like myself were not allowed to tell them something, how were they ever to learn what was doing?
23601If she could come back, why worry about minor mishaps?
23601If they were doing well, would n''t we be told more?
23601Is he?
23601Is it something always dead and gone, or something a man carries around with him?
23601Is there any romance in the navy nowadays?
23601Kick that toy balloon and what does it do?
23601Lively?
23601Might as well get out, had n''t you?"
23601My chum Bob, remember''im-- that was seven hours to Alexandria and back-- with a rose in his coat?
23601Never heard of him?
23601No?
23601No?
23601Nobody doing much for a chap that''e do n''t do for hisself, is there?"
23601Not too bad-- hah?
23601Nothing great to look at, is she?
23601Nothing to say?
23601Oh, most likely it''s''The compliments of the admiral, and will you come aboard the flag- ship and try a taste of punch?''
23601Oh- h, you mean them little''orns stickin''out on''er?
23601Or cares?
23601Ship a clerk in the crew and who would know?
23601So-- war days are hard enough anyway-- why not ease up now and again?
23601Some little old packet, hah?
23601Somebody may ask: Will the young fellow who looks on the navy as a business proposition make a good fighting man?
23601Something happens in an aeroplane, and where are you?
23601Still, who knows?
23601The Huns were laying mines all the time, were n''t they?
23601The face at the desk did not even turn to look at him, but the thin lips almost opened and a rasping voice said:"Got anything to say to me?"
23601The fire in the forehold?
23601The guard at the door said certainly, but where was he?
23601The mine- sweeper skipper looked up--"Feelers, sir?"
23601The need of such a chapter?
23601Then what are you doing here?"
23601Then why waste my time or your own?
23601There were reports to fill out, but what were reports?
23601They did not allow British writers on British ships; why should they allow an American writer on an American ship?
23601They had sailed out into the Atlantic-- that we knew; but what were they doing?
23601They heard us speak English, whereat one of them called over:"Say, you guys comprong English?
23601Thirty?
23601To the natural question, Why have n''t you checked them?
23601Twenty- eight and picking up?
23601Volplane?
23601Was it not right and fair that he should give a reason?
23601Was it rough?
23601We may not name the place here, but here is how it was described:"Ever been to that big aquarium in Naples?
23601Wee, wee?
23601Well, remember those devil- fish hiding behind the rock on the bottom?
23601Were they doing good work over here, or were they tied up to a dock in some port and their officers and crews roistering ashore?
23601Whaddyer know about that?"
23601What d''y''know about her?
23601What d''y''know about them?"
23601What d''y''know-- some little baby, hah?
23601What did she do?
23601What did she say that time, Tid?"
23601What for?"
23601What have you to say?''
23601What was he there for?
23601What will you have to drink?"
23601Where the devil you- all going?
23601Where was he now?
23601Who can answer for all?
23601Who was to say they had not swept up?
23601Why did not more of us see any?
23601Why do you ask me that?"
23601Why had n''t he told me so before?
23601Why not?
23601Why should not a man who risks his life in his daily calling have the normal comforts and his family the ordinary necessities of life?
23601Why should substituting smoke- pipes for spars, and propellers for sails, kill the thing that thrills us?
23601Will it be like shooting clay pipes in a gallery or will a warmer wave go rolling through his veins as he presses the button?
23601With a busted stay or bamboo strut and you a mile in the air, where are you?
23601Would n''t that test men''s faith in their good luck?
23601Would the stranger señor come into his house so that Juan might speak more confidentially of them?
23601Would they''ang a chap, d''y''think, if he was to''ave a bit of a smoke for''imself while waitin''?"
23601Yes?
23601You wish to see me?"
23601You''ve seen my ship,''aven''t you, lying to moorings?
23601_ net_.50****** THE U- BOAT HUNTERS by JAMES B. CONNOLLY With Illustrations[ Illustration:"Where you- all going?...
23601almost any young British naval officer felt like saying:"Check''em?
54496''Kin I do fer yer?
54496A box of matches? 54496 A man attached to the Red fleet?"
54496A what?
54496ARE WE AWAKE?
54496ARE WE AWAKE?
54496Ai n''t you a nice one ter try yer deceivin''ways on poor ole Cap''n Briggs?
54496And if she does slip past us?
54496And that bein''the case, it will be, I reckon?
54496And that was----?
54496And what''s that?
54496And yet, what can his motive be?
54496And you thought you could overreach me and give me orders, did you? 54496 Any more?"
54496Are you going to surrender?
54496Aw, leggo my hand, will yer?
54496Be you in the navy?
54496Beg your pardon, sir,he asked,"but would there be any objection to my going ashore to- night?
54496But say, Ned, have you done any thinking about this accident?
54496But what is your object in confining me in that stuffy cabin?
54496But you know what I mean?
54496But you''ve come to the conclusion that the accident may not have been quite so accidental as it appeared?
54496Ca n''t you get''em?
54496Can you anyways recall jes''what happened las''night?
54496Can you start your motor on the jump? 54496 Complimentary, is he not?"
54496Could he climb?
54496Could he have escaped that way?
54496D- d- d- do you think she can live?
54496Danger?
54496Did n''t you tell me that they started in the navy just as enlisted men?
54496Do you mean to tell me that you care for life after what you have confessed to me?
54496Hang your impudence,cried young Kenworth;"do what I tell you, do you hear?"
54496Have I ever seen you before?
54496Have we got to wear our swords?
54496Have what?
54496Have you that book of drawings you have been making?
54496Hello, Red- head,hailed a gunner''s mate as Herc strutted with all the pride of a peacock to the forward part of the ship,"what''s biting you?"
54496Here you, Tops''l, go off on another tack, d''ye hear? 54496 Hold on a minute, will you?"
54496Honorable capitan lie quiet? 54496 How can I do that?
54496How dare you make such a remark to me, sir?
54496How do you know?
54496How do you know?
54496How do you make that out?
54496How long has this been going on?
54496How much do you want?
54496How yer feelin''?
54496How''s that?
54496Hullo, you fellows have met before?
54496I did n''t get you, did I?
54496I guess we wo n''t, Ned, eh?
54496I wonder if we''ll get orders to join the Red fleet right off?
54496I-- how-- what''s the matter?
54496If I refuse?
54496In-- in command? 54496 It is n''t possible that she has slipped by us in the night, do you think?"
54496It seems that rascals do have all the luck on their side sometimes, does n''t it?
54496Lieutenant Strong, I presume?
54496Lieutenant Strong, sir?
54496May I ask what you mean to do with me?
54496Mr. Fuller, what do you make of that yacht yonder?
54496Now then, are you going below peaceable or do we hev ter make yer?
54496Now what does that mean?
54496Now what would the steward of a gunboat be doing with all that money?
54496Now what''s that for?
54496Now what----?
54496Oh, the one we unloaded this evening?
54496Our duty, sir?
54496Putting two and two together?
54496Saki? 54496 Say, what kind of a game are you trying to work, Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines?"
54496See here, Captain Briggs, do n''t you think you''re carrying this thing a little far?
54496See here, Herc Taylor, we want peace and harmony on this craft; do you understand?
54496See here, you, what have you got your hand in my pocket for, hey?
54496Shall I get you a glass of water? 54496 Shall you not intercept her, sir?"
54496So are we what?
54496So that''s your little plan, eh?
54496So you assume that I''m the thief, do you?
54496That you, Mr. Capitan, sir?
54496The honorable gentleman is in the service of the so estimable Uncle Sam?
54496The question now is, though, where am I?
54496The_ Seneca_?
54496Then how can they tell if they''ve been exploded or not when we go submarining around them?
54496Then if he did get up there, he is a prisoner?
54496Then we may not be with the fleet at all?
54496Then we-- we are officers?
54496Then you believe that he is dead, sir?
54496Think it?
54496Thinking you''d like to nail me, are n''t you?
54496To whom are we to report, sir?
54496Umph, what''s the next move?
54496Well, did you do what I told you?
54496Well, how do you like it, eh?
54496Well, so do you, do n''t you?
54496Well, what about those clouds?
54496Well, what do you make of her?
54496Well, what do you think of that?
54496Well, what is it?
54496Well, what''s the matter with looking in your own pocket?
54496Well,resumed the skipper,"it''s got to be that you''ve got to go below, and----""Go below?"
54496Well?
54496What appears to be the trouble, Herc?
54496What are you talking about, you numbskull?
54496What craft is that?
54496What do you see?
54496What do you want a room for? 54496 What for?"
54496What is that?
54496What is the matter, gentlemen?
54496What on earth am I to do?
54496What sort of a way do you consider this to behave?
54496What sort of nefarious business are you in?
54496What will the gentleman please to''ave?
54496What''s coming now?
54496What''s that lying on the floor right there by your feet, my friend?
54496What''s that?
54496What''s the idea of this?
54496What''s the matter with you navy fellows?
54496What, you here, sir?
54496What, you would dare to use violence on me? 54496 When do we start, sir?"
54496Where are you bound for?
54496Where in the world can they be bound?
54496Where on earth-- what----?
54496Who are you? 54496 Who can it be?
54496Who''s that?
54496Why are you so anxious to have me out of the way?
54496Why not?
54496Why not?
54496Why on earth do you want me to do that?
54496You are from the_ Seneca_?
54496You are going to board her?
54496You come in for something-- a cigar, maybe?
54496You do n''t know that feller Rankin, then?
54496You do n''t recklect nuthin''more''n what you told me?
54496You must never enter my cabin, do you understand? 54496 You said you were going to take a cruise?"
54496You try to make a fool out of me, will you?
54496You was n''t asked to come on board this here fine vessel, was yer?
54496You wo n''t have any, so far as I''m concerned,said Ned, a light beginning to dawn upon him;"but tell me how you came to pick me up?"
54496You''re going to meet Ensign Summerville there?
54496And what do you think his name was?"
54496At once, do you hear me?"
54496But what would that avail him, except to prolong his misery?
54496But where have you come from?"
54496But will you show us to our room right away, please?
54496But would that fact do him any good?
54496Ca n''t you save us?
54496Can it be possible that he heard the message coming over the wireless, or in some manner gained access to a copy of it?"
54496Can nothing save us?"
54496Can you save us?"
54496Could it be that Fate, by ways devious for even that uncertain goddess, had led his feet into the arcanum of the Blue fleet''s secrets?
54496Could it be----?
54496Do I look like a man who would inwent of malice aforethought a faberrycation?"
54496Do you hear me?
54496Do you hear?"
54496Do you know anything about them?"
54496Do you notice anything odd about her, Herc?"
54496Do you think you''re back on the farm?"
54496Got a stroke?"
54496Had Kenworth deliberately given the order that had resulted in the grounding of the ship, or had he lost his head and"piled her up"?
54496Have a drink, matey?"
54496Have you been doing that?"
54496Have you opened your orders yet?"
54496How do I look?"
54496I wonder how he knew about the mine planting, though?
54496I wonder if the_ Seneca_ has arrived yet?"
54496In the service?"
54496It wo n''t take me long and---- What on earth is the matter?
54496Kenworth, come here a moment, will you?"
54496Kenworth?"
54496Maybe we wo n''t give''em a surprise, eh?"
54496No?"
54496Now will you go below?"
54496Page 178, changed single to double quote after"Can you anyways recall jes''what happened las''night?"
54496Say, Ned, you do n''t think they could have disguised her, do you?"
54496Suppose we fall down?"
54496Taylor, you may carry on and---- Well, orderly?"
54496Was it possible that those in the house had deserted it precipitately and had left him there to perish miserably like a rat in a hole?
54496Was this to be his fate, his destiny, to perish in this dark, hidden place beneath the waters of the incoming tide?
54496We can get a room, I suppose?"
54496What are you doing here?"
54496What boat is that?"
54496What can it be?"
54496What could be coming now?
54496What could be coming?
54496What could be the solution of the mystery?
54496What could have happened?
54496What did you do with it?
54496What harm could come to him here?
54496What is more delightful than a re- union of college girls after the summer vacation?
54496What on earth do you want with a gun?"
54496What would be thought of him by his superiors?
54496What, indeed, did the future hold for these two ambitious young officers of Uncle Sam''s?
54496When they found the roof tenantless, would they not make a further search of the room?
54496Where did it lead to?
54496Who are you?"
54496Who do you think we are?"
54496Who knows what they may contain and what lies before us?"
54496Who so fit to solve it as a band of adventurous Boy Scouts?
54496Who would dream of looking for him in that place?
54496Why do n''t you go right back to the Bronx, climb in, and shut the gate?"
54496Why had Kenworth come there?
54496Why not secure that rear door from the inside?
54496Why not shoot him down from outside here?"
54496Why was this, when many of his own class had passed him?
54496Would he drive Herc out there?
54496Would it be possible to escape that way?
54496You understand?"
54496what harm does it do to tell him a few wholesome truths?"
54496what''s the use of being officers, then?"
23036A pleasanter time until the hangman called for us?
23036A wonderful invention, is it not?
23036About how many hours ago?
23036An Englishman and his young wife, eh? 23036 And its master?"
23036And must I speak before-- before your subordinate?
23036And the other sweeper sticks near by you?
23036And then?
23036And you in the upper berth? 23036 And you''re the ship''s doctor?"
23036Another try for that slippery customer, eh?
23036Any American destroyers sighted hereabouts, do you know?
23036Any enemy signs?
23036Any size?
23036Are there any further orders?
23036Are we resting on the bottom?
23036Are you a German?
23036Are you going over the side, madam?
23036Are you sending the officers to the same place of detention that you are sending my men?
23036Are you still swimming strongly?
23036Are you suffering otherwise?
23036Are your ship''s papers and instruments intended for the Germans, sir?
23036Badly?
23036But if the destroyer sees you and stops to engage, what then?
23036But is it possible that the crew were ignorant, or most of them ignorant, of what he was doing in addition to really carrying wood pulp cargoes?
23036But what do you say yourselves?
23036But what is it?
23036But what was that first line that was thrown overboard-- I mean the one I grabbed and held on to?
23036But will Herr Fernald keep inviolate what I have to say?
23036By whom?
23036Could it have been a mine?
23036Dave, are n''t you nearly wild to get back to duty?
23036David, little giant, did you know that the''Reed''had the good luck to pick you up?
23036Did you always deliver, here, to the same mine- layer?
23036Did you expect they would desert their patients?
23036Did you get a good rest, Fernald?
23036Did you notice, sir, that the explosion lasted more than twice as long as we''ve ever known one to last before?
23036Did you sink her?
23036Did your craft always come to these same waters to deliver mines to mine- layers?
23036Do I have to have the chloroform, sir?
23036Do n''t you have regular watches?
23036Do you feel your full strength yet?
23036Do you know how many mine- layers wait over here on the English side to have mines delivered to them?
23036Do you realize what you have done, scoundrelly Yankee?
23036Do you really think so?
23036Do you see anything?
23036Do you wish a written copy, sir?
23036Does any man among you understand English?
23036Fernald, do you know that there were moments when I had to restrain myself to keep from kicking that scoundrel about his own deck?
23036Found out your hurt?
23036From your accent you''ve been in our country?
23036Getting your strength back, are n''t you?
23036Going on board today, sir?
23036Going to try again, sir?
23036Has the woman any relative in the party?
23036Have they anything against you there?
23036Have you anything definite to say on that subject?
23036Have you known of any case in which a mine- sweeper had any show at all against a German destroyer?
23036Have you seen any mine- sweepers destroyed while at work?
23036Her name?
23036Her present station?
23036How could you ever bring yourself to commit such villainy?
23036How long are the watches?
23036How long do you think we can keep afloat?
23036How many mine- sweeping craft have we now under our orders?
23036How many mines could your craft carry?
23036How many mines did you have on board when you left the base port?
23036How many of them can we spare from mine- sweeping?
23036How many trips a week has your craft been making between here and the base port?
23036How soon can the commanders of the three patrol boats report to me?
23036How soon do you put for sea?
23036How was the hunting, Danny Grin?
23036I do not mind dying, for myself, but in that event what will become of my poor little children?
23036If you caught an American spy in Germany would you arrest him?
23036In what business is this ship engaged?
23036Is that the way you address women when they are helpless?
23036Is the weather bad enough for you to have to remain here, sir?
23036Is there any scarcity of men for this sort of work?
23036Is there still time for us to get that hour''s start?
23036Lucky, when the experience nearly cost you your life?
23036May I request the privilege of a few words with you before you send me below?
23036Mines? 23036 Most of the mines you were to deliver here tonight?"
23036Mr. Darrin, we are now at good depth under water?
23036Name of the destroyer?
23036Norwegian?
23036Not going to croak me, are you, sir?
23036Not such a bad time, was it?
23036Now, what on earth does the''Old Man''want?
23036Now, where are the members of your crew?
23036Now, you vill go to de after hold, please?
23036Now, you''ll go over the side, sir, wo n''t you?
23036Of what are you thinking, if I may ask?
23036Old Darry himself, eh?
23036Present detail?
23036Rank?
23036Shall we all go inside? 23036 Shall we stop to pick up men?"
23036Sighted any mine- sweeper on the shoal?
23036So far,said Dave,"I have not done any better than my English predecessor, sir?"
23036So that these larger boats can make at least five round trips a week?
23036So?
23036That would seem likely, would n''t it?
23036The hangman?
23036The women first?
23036The younger woman is a beauty, you say?
23036Then may I, as the prisoner of war, ask that the subject be changed?
23036Then we did wrong to go after the destroyers this night?
23036Then what happened, sir?
23036Then will you swim ahead and see what it is that my eyes show me on the water?
23036Then you intend to bring the charge against me?
23036Then you often hit mines?
23036Then you would call mine- sweeping the most dangerous kind of naval service performed to- day?
23036Then, as I shall be busy, will you be good enough to return to the bounds set for you?
23036There can be no doubt at all that you answer the description just given?
23036There can be no doubt that you are Darrin?
23036These are your photographs, are they not?
23036They are to be examined just the same, sir, though the''Gloucester''is no more?
23036Think y''can hold on, lady? 23036 Vat?
23036Vat? 23036 Vat?"
23036Vy you call me dot?
23036Was he in the water longer than the rest of you?
23036Was there ever a better or braver commander than Darry? 23036 We are cabin- mates, then?"
23036We should win out, do n''t you think?
23036Well, sir--?
23036Were you washed overboard from the craft of which you are commanding officer?
23036What ails you, man?
23036What craft is that?
23036What do you mean by that?
23036What do you need for your enterprise?
23036What do you want me to do?
23036What does this new insolence mean?
23036What is it?
23036What is it?
23036What is the matter?
23036What is the most common trouble?
23036What is your present course?
23036What number recovered?
23036What ship is that yonder?
23036What ship is this?
23036What''s the weather?
23036When did I ever hog all of the best sport and leave you the rind?
23036When do you men sleep?
23036Where are they?
23036Where have I heard that name before?
23036Where is it?
23036Where is your skipper?
23036Where will you have us sit, Brute?
23036Where?
23036Who can say?
23036Who can the women be?
23036Who commands that destroyer?
23036Why do we hate you?
23036Why do you hate us Germans so?
23036Why is that?
23036Why not face facts calmly?
23036Why should they dislike me?
23036Will you stop?
23036Will you, at least, not leave the room until I have risen?
23036With the amount of speed you can command,he resumed,"what does a craft like this do, Hedgeby, if a German destroyer comes racing along after you?"
23036Would you destroy her, too-- cause her, if you could, to die the death of drowning helplessly?
23036Yankee Navy?
23036Yes, sir?
23036Yes; you did n''t expect to see me again, did you?
23036Yes?
23036Yes?
23036Yes?
23036You are eager for death?
23036You are not a German?
23036You are the only officers of this craft?
23036You assert that?
23036You carry only freight?
23036You command this ship?
23036You have another woman prisoner? 23036 You have been told, of course, that we always report our whereabouts after dark?"
23036You have not answered my question, and wo n''t?
23036You like this work?
23036You planted some on the way?
23036You usually try to do that, do n''t you?
23036You were a trawler before you came into this branch of the service?
23036You wo n''t mind saying that in your report, will you?
23036You''re not pro- German, then, like so many of your countrymen?
23036You''re working northward, toward the shoals?
23036You''ve found another submarine?
23036Your cargo is wood pulp, you say?
23036Your reason for being away from your craft and being aboard the''Rigsdak''?
23036Your reason for travelling?
23036_ You?_gasped the ober- lieutenant!
23036A steamship was coming to their aid, but would it arrive in time?
23036And now, sir, your name?"
23036And this man and woman are passengers?
23036And what about that honest old sea- dog, Captain Kennor?
23036And you, Captain Kennor?
23036Any further orders?"
23036As the orderly stepped in, saluting, Dreiner tried a last appeal:"Why do you hate us Germans so?"
23036Before this had been finished Dr. Valpak thrust his head in to inquire:"Do I intrude?"
23036Before you set out to murder me in an especially brutal manner, did you take the trouble to ask me whether_ I_ had any children who would starve?
23036But cold?
23036But we have here--?"
23036CHAPTER X LIKE THE FRENCH AND ENGLISH"INDEED?"
23036CHAPTER XI A VICTIM OF COURTESY"AND what about the woman we have on board?"
23036CHAPTER XI-- A VICTIM OF COURTESY 115 What of the woman?
23036CHAPTER XVIII STRIKING A REAL SURPRISE"ARE we heading straight course?"
23036CHAPTER XXIV CONCLUSION"SHALL I order the helm to starboard, sir?"
23036Ca n''t proof it you?"
23036Can you hear his propellers?
23036Coming outside after some minutes Darrin asked:"Ladies, do you wish to remain in the dining room, or will you go back to your sleeping cabin?"
23036Could any woman love this fellow?
23036Darrin tried his own German on the fellow, asking:"Your craft had just arrived from the base port?"
23036Darrin?
23036Darrin?"
23036Dave continued to signal until, to his great joy, there came an answering signal from a blinker light which asked:"Who are you?"
23036Did you ask Mr. and Mrs. Launce whether they had children that were not provided for?
23036Did you pause to inquire whether he was leaving hungry children behind?
23036Do you call that a day of good sport?"
23036Do you think my ship would sail without me?"
23036Is that all for the present?"
23036Is this the same night I was picked up and introduced on board, so to speak?"
23036It is rather an unusual stimulus to duty, is n''t it?"
23036Languor was stealing over him as the questioner asked:"How do you feel?"
23036Sending for Boatswain''s Mate Runkle, Dave inquired:"Do you speak German?"
23036Shall we rig the small bombs on the sweep wires?"
23036She was some six miles away when a radio message came from her in code in these words:"Can you see steamship about four knots north- west of us?"
23036So you are the Darrin, eh?"
23036The ober- lieutenant eyed the pair impressively before he asked them:"You do not deny that you are the Earl and Countess of Denby?"
23036The stupidest one, eh?
23036Then the enemy mine- layers have been working more industriously of late?"
23036Then you admit it?"
23036Then, as he scanned the information he had written down, the German asked:"Darrin?
23036Vere or ven did you by dat come?"
23036We can not clean up the mines themselves with three craft, can we?"
23036We may be fired upon and sunk, do you not think?"
23036What can possibly come to our aid in that short time?"
23036Where have I heard that name before?"
23036Where is your boatswain?"
23036Which is it?"
23036Who can the woman be?
23036Why did you not take the lower one?
23036Why have you killed two of our crew and hurt others?"
23036Will Dalzell be in today?"
23036Will you kindly exchange?"
23036Will you permit me?"
23036Wo n''t you use your persuasion to help me?"
23036You are going to confine me, I take it?"
23036You do n''t feel chilled, now?"
23036You swim?"
23036You swim?"
23036You were the principal witness against him when he was tried in Britain for being a spy?"
23036Your people have some that carry much larger numbers of mines?"
23036each***** The Range and Grange Hustlers By FRANK GEE PATCHIN Have you any idea of the excitements, the glories of life on great ranches in the West?
47776A sort of dinner flag, I suppose?
47776A swab, sir?
47776And what were you doing all this time?
47776And who is that fellow in the funny uniform, anyhow?
47776And you had done nothing to him?
47776Any previous bad record?
47776Are n''t we going to board the ship?
47776Are not you boys going in that boat?
47776Are we under the water- line now?
47776Are you sure?
47776But how did you get back from the Sierra Madre Mountains so quickly?
47776But if the shell passed above us, sir?
47776But what''s a fellow want to come into the navy for if he can make a living walking a tight rope?
47776But why waste time on that powder barrel?
47776Call me a liar, will you?
47776Can it be possible that the man Strong was in league with the miscreants? 47776 Can you hold them back?"
47776Can you please tell us how to get there?
47776Can you run an auto?
47776Can you tell us how to get aboard the_ Manhattan_? 47776 Can you tell us what was the matter with that fellow?"
47776Can you tie a running bowline?
47776Carry on,thought Ned;"what on earth is that?"
47776Come, sir; what have you to say?
47776Coming down the street? 47776 Did n''t I pay two dollars ten cents for that busted stove, Ned?"
47776Did you fellows do what he says?
47776Did you recognize them?
47776Do n''t you know enough not to try to embark till the order is given?
47776Do you anticipate being picked up shortly, captain?
47776Do you call yourselves men?
47776Dreadnought, is n''t she?
47776Eh- eh- eh?
47776For instance, what?
47776Get your rating?
47776Go again-- what?
47776Goin''ter enlist in the navy, eh?
47776Got any left for the kid, if he gets mussy?
47776Have I lost those, too?
47776Have n''t you any manners?
47776Here, you boys,bluffly snapped a boatswain''s mate, approaching the boys;"what are you doing here?"
47776How about you, old Growler?
47776How did it happen? 47776 How do you come to know all this?"
47776How do you get it in lateral range?
47776How do you mean?
47776How is it you never rose from the scrub stations?
47776How long has this-- this-- baron been here?
47776How on earth do we get aboard?
47776How soon will we come to anchor?
47776Hurt, Ned?
47776I guess he regulates the traffic,suggested Herc, in response to the silent query,"see that horse''s head in a wheel embroidered on his arm?
47776I hope you are not sea- sick, sir?
47776I say, what are you going to do with your achievement? 47776 I see,"nodded Ned as he took his passbook, and Herc did the same,"what do we do now, sir?"
47776I wonder if that fellow is equipped with springs?
47776If I tell you boys a secret can you keep it-- teetotal abstinence?
47776Is that so?
47776Is there any news, sir?
47776Is this right?
47776Looking at the big wigs, eh?
47776Master- at- arms, what do you know about this case?
47776Mean?
47776Mr. Scott, there is a complainant in this case, is there not?
47776Mr. Scott,said Captain Dunham, turning to his lieutenant- commander,"ask Mr. Andrews to step here a minute, will you?"
47776My man, did you or your friend talk over this step of his?
47776Ned,it was the inventor''s voice; but it sounded faint and far off,"shall I call out?"
47776No, sir, why?
47776No?
47776Not all? 47776 Now where are your jiu- jitsu tricks?"
47776Now, guv''nor, where''s the gasoline gig?
47776Now, then, Varian, have you changed your mind?
47776Now, what''s that young whipper- snapper going to do?
47776Oh, is he all right?
47776Oh, is that it?
47776Oh, sir, was that the President himself?
47776Oh, so he''s a marine, eh?
47776One moment, sir,begged Ned, as the inventor whispered:"What next?"
47776Ordinary Seaman Strong?
47776Ought we to tell the captain?
47776Our time is limited,broke in the still indignant Ned,"will you please direct us to the address I showed you?"
47776Out of my way, ca n''t you?
47776Ready, Cooper?
47776Say, Carl,he went on, turning to his companion,"this is a nice, sociable cellmate they''ve given us, is n''t it?"
47776Say, Herc, what''s the matter with you to- night? 47776 Say, did n''t that boy move?"
47776Say, greenie, where do you come from, Painted Post or far Cohoes''where the wind flower blows''? 47776 Say, guv''nor, it would be pretty dangerous firing off a gun at this time of night, would n''t it?
47776Say,whispered Herc, in an awed tone, as their new acquaintance vanished into his room,"did you see the letters on the end of the suitcase?"
47776So you have decided to let young Taylor serve out his sentence?
47776Sort of rattlesnakes, eh?
47776Still thinking of the old farm and Lambs''Corners, eh?
47776That goes without saying; but you were going to remark?
47776That? 47776 The baron is here for that purpose?"
47776The brig-- that''s a kind of a ship, is n''t it?
47776The fire- controls?
47776The meat- ball?
47776The_ Manhattan_, eh?
47776Then we are to sail soon?
47776Then, if the ship was sunk in action, the men down here would not stand a chance to escape?
47776They could do all this in two days?
47776W- what''s the matter?
47776Want action, eh?
47776Well, did you hear what he said?
47776Well, what do you know about that?
47776Well?
47776What about our money, sir?
47776What are they?
47776What are you barricading the door of the naval recruiting office for? 47776 What do you mean?
47776What do you mean?
47776What explanation have you to make of this?
47776What have you got to say in explanation of this?
47776What in blazes do I care about the women?
47776What is it?
47776What is that?
47776What is that?
47776What is the matter, madam?
47776What on earth are they going to do?
47776What then? 47776 What then?"
47776What you in for, kid?
47776What you say may be, and undoubtedly is, true,remarked Varian coolly,"but was that what you brought me out here to tell me?
47776What you-- Recruit Taylor-- fighting?
47776What''s all this, Stowe?
47776What''s all this? 47776 What''s he waving at-- sea- cows?"
47776What''s that red flag, with a black ball in the center, floating from the_ Idaho''s_ main?
47776What''s that, sir?
47776What''s that?
47776What''s that?
47776What''s the difference?
47776What''s the offense?
47776What''s the trouble?
47776What, out on the water?
47776What, those swinging things?
47776What, you cut his eye like that?
47776What?
47776What?
47776What?
47776What?
47776Where away?
47776Where''s Ned?
47776Where''s the lieutenant and Mr. Varian? 47776 Where?"
47776Which is the_ Manhattan_?
47776Who are they, Scott?
47776Who are you men?
47776Who did it?
47776Who said Hank Harkins?
47776Who started this?
47776Why do you do that?
47776Why in the great horn- spoon does n''t he ask him if Kennell hit him first?
47776Why not?
47776Why, how can we tell unless we know what it is?
47776Why, the boats are made to get into, are n''t they?
47776Why, what are you talking about?
47776Why, what''s all this?
47776Why, what''s the trouble, Herc?
47776Why, what''s the trouble?
47776Why, you ai n''t got no money?
47776Why? 47776 Why?"
47776Why?
47776Will you avail yourself of our places, madam?
47776Will you be back to dinner?
47776Yes, why?
47776You are interested, above all things, in the success of the Varian type of gun-- handling the Varian explosive, are you not?
47776You are sure of it, are n''t you?
47776You are, of course, acquainted with the rudiments of gunnery?
47776You mean the day you dived over after him? 47776 You mean you intend to attend to the matter in your own way?"
47776You mean your eye, do n''t you?
47776You saved her?
47776You say Seaman Strong made his way after the men you suspected, and that was the last you saw of him?
47776Your friend Taylor is er- er somewhat impulsive, I should imagine?
47776Your papers?
47776_ Now_, will you tell us where those blueprints are, and give us an order for them?
47776Am I correct?"
47776An accident, was n''t it?"
47776An easy way of earning ten thousand dollars, eh?"
47776Are you aware that this is a confession of guilt, or equivalent to it?"
47776Are you badly hurt?"
47776Are you going to give the papers up?"
47776Are you going to vacate them?"
47776As Ned had said,"Where were his jiu- jitsu tricks now?"
47776At any moment they might send another shot toward it, and then what would happen?
47776But are you not the two boys who fell overboard a short time ago?"
47776But could he last?
47776But how do you account for the fact that the man Kennell was lying insensible at the foot of the turret, with that cut over his eye?"
47776Could it be possible that the inventor was contemplating the dastardly act of selling out his country?
47776Do n''t you like it?"
47776Do n''t you remember him?"
47776Had the captain possessed the gift of prophecy---- But what man or woman does?
47776Have we come to the right place, sir?"
47776Have you heard any details of the matter which you could not relate officially at the inquiry?"
47776Have you stowed yours?"
47776Have you?"
47776How did that young man come to be all mixed up in the stove?"
47776How much, now?"
47776How would a life on the ocean wave appeal to you, eh?"
47776I guess this would be something like that, eh, Ned?"
47776I wonder how Kennell got into it, though?"
47776I''m to be locked up?"
47776Is he a reliable chap, do you know?"
47776Is he the man you suspect of causing the trouble?"
47776It might bring the alligator- zills, or whatever they call these Cuban cops, about our ears, might n''t it?"
47776Land o''Goshen, what have yer set yer mind on doin''?"
47776Of course, I tell you this under the pledge of secrecy we exacted from you before leaving the banquet hall?"
47776Of course, you are familiar with hammock- slinging, and all that appertains to it?"
47776Surely you are not getting scared?"
47776Taylor, what have you to say to this story?"
47776The concern that sells American- made guns to foreign powers?"
47776There is no chance of our getting away?"
47776They are the invention of Henry Varian, of Boston----""The inventor of that new explosive?"
47776Tom?"
47776Was it a mutual sense that they were at the scene which was to be the theatre of their daring attempt?
47776Was there actually more in the glance they exchanged than seemed to be the case?
47776Waste it on a navy which will not repay you a thousandth part of the sum we are prepared to offer?
47776We''ll take a brisk walk around the decks, to get the cobwebs out of our brains, and then we''ll turn in-- how''s that suit you?"
47776We''ve got trouble enough of our own, have n''t we?"
47776What do you mean?"
47776What happened then?"
47776What if he had killed the man?
47776What less likely place to find an escaped prisoner than in the United States navy?
47776What ship, may I ask?"
47776What was it?
47776What''s all this?"
47776What''s the use of being different to the others?
47776Where are those blueprints?"
47776Where is this man Kennell?"
47776Where''s Ned Strong?"
47776Who are you going to recognize next?"
47776Who do they remind you of?"
47776Who has so grossly violated the rules of the service as to have been guilty of fighting?"
47776Who so fit to solve it as a band of adventurous Boy Scouts?
47776Who struck the first blow?"
47776Why?"
47776Wo n''t you forgive me?"
47776Would n''t working for Uncle Sam in a uniform like that on a first- class fighting- ship suit you better than doing chores?
47776You admit, then, that you hit this man?"
47776You do n''t mean to say that you are nervous?"
47776You mean it was done on purpose?"
47776grunted the old man incredulously,"that''s fine talking, but what''s all this I see?
47776he broke off suddenly,"did you see those two fellows who just passed?"
47776mused Ned,"or if he is galvanized daily, or merely wound up by clockwork?"
12776A little_ talk_, as a relief from so much watching and waiting, eh?
12776A prisoner?
12776About westerly, is n''t it?
12776Ah, so?
12776Am I permitted to go to mess, sir?
12776Am I really fortunate?
12776And Cosetta''s bandits?
12776And all our own men?
12776And how has he managed to drag Dan into it?
12776And our orders?
12776And still is your best judgment?
12776And the rifle ammunition?
12776And who was the officer in whose quarters you found it?
12776And why should n''t I?
12776And you did not receive it from any one else?
12776And you refuse to please me in a trifling matter?
12776And you wo n''t?
12776Any losses in your own command?
12776Any of our men need attention, sir?
12776Any trenches near the house?
12776Are all the missing Americans safe?
12776Are there Americans inside the house?
12776Are there any Americans here,he shouted,"who want help?
12776Are you Americans?
12776Are you awake in sea- going order, sir?
12776Are you going to call me a liar, too?
12776Are you going to fire on them?
12776Are you going to prefer charges against Darrin for knocking you down?
12776Are you going to tell me?
12776Are you going to tell what Cantor did last night?
12776Are you sure of that?
12776Are you sure that your personal animosity has no part in that suspicion?
12776Are you sure?
12776Are you to handle the launch to- night?
12776Attack on battleships by submarines and airships?
12776But it_ does_ mean war, does n''t it?
12776But what has that to do with the United States? 12776 But when do you shoot us?"
12776But where is the Mexican resistance?
12776But why should you try to shield him, and throw me down, if this matter comes before a court- martial?
12776But will the Mexicans start anything?
12776By the way, sir, did you hear anything about an armed encounter between a naval party and Cosetta''s bandits last night?
12776Ca n''t you call in your party and make a quick dash down the lagoon?
12776Ca n''t you spare me just a moment?
12776Called you a_ liar_?
12776Can I be of service, madam?
12776Can you guess what it is?
12776Could n''t you have escaped without returning the fire?
12776Dalzell is busy, I suppose, sir?
12776Darrin, are you hard up?
12776Darrin, are you taking all the observations necessary and entering them?
12776Darrin, do you realize that I am your superior?
12776Darrin, do you want to make an enemy?
12776Darrin,asked the division commander,"do you realize that you are out of place in the Navy?"
12776Did Hicks get the women and children to the launch?
12776Did Trent say anything?
12776Did he rake you over the coals again?
12776Did n''t you notice the course?
12776Did n''t you notice the welt on Mr. Cantor''s cheek?
12776Did the rascals get you, Darrin?
12776Did you discuss me?
12776Did you find the American party, Ensign Darrin?
12776Did you get it from Mexico City or Washington?
12776Did you see any signs of them?
12776Did you tell him anything--- about--- er--- about last night?
12776Do you come to reinforce us, Lieutenant?
12776Do you feel satisfied to go without escort,asked Darrin,"or may I offer my services in seeing you safely to your home?"
12776Do you know of any other prisoners, Americans or otherwise, who are held here by the bandits, sir?
12776Do you know that man, sir?
12776Do you persist in refusing to tell me that taxicab number?
12776Do you realize what two of our greatest problems are to- day?
12776Do you realize, Trent, that we have only blue uniforms and white ones on board? 12776 Do you think he is going to succeed in putting it over on you?"
12776Do you think, Holton, that will happen before you and I have been put on the retired list as white- haired rear admirals?
12776Ensign Darrin, did you do anything to provoke that fire?
12776Give me that number, or-----"Or what?
12776Had n''t you better go first, sir?
12776Has any officer any information to offer that can throw the least light on thus matter?
12776Has anything happened in Mexico,continued Denton,"which makes it imperative for us to fight there?"
12776Have any fun?
12776Have you any idea what we''re doing here?
12776Have you any orders for me, sir?
12776Have you any other papers to submit in connection with Ensign Darrin?
12776Have you been out of the room, sir?
12776Have you thought of the probability of a secret passage from the cellar?
12776Have you told Dalzell about me since coming aboard?
12776He is to be arrested wherever found, I suppose?
12776Hear that commotion on the quarter- deck?
12776How am I to decide?
12776How did you come to be here?
12776How does Congress feel about the situation?
12776How many officers, sir, visited your office after the time you are certain of having seen the missing envelope on your desk?
12776How much of your ammunition did you bring back?
12776How so?
12776Hurt, David, little giant?
12776I suppose you fellows have heard the word?
12776I wonder if our job is to take that fortress?
12776I wonder if you''ll ever meet him again?
12776I wonder if you''re any good as a prophet, Trent?
12776If fighting does begin,asked Dalzell, suddenly,"where do we of the Navy come in?
12776In arrest?
12776In fighting the Mexican Navy?
12776In the face of orders not to fight?
12776In what direction?
12776In what way?
12776In your judgment, Ensign Darrin, there was no other course open save to return the fire?
12776Indeed, sir?
12776Is he trying to make trouble for you because you behaved like a brave man?
12776Is it true that there are American sailors below?
12776Is that incident going to lead to war?
12776Is that you, Ensign Darrin?
12776Is the admiral afraid that we''ll start a row on shore?
12776Is the young woman aware of your intentions, sir?
12776Is there any very late news from Tampico?
12776Is this the envelope, sir?
12776Is this your property, madam?
12776It does an American good, just to be in a place like this, does n''t it?
12776It was outrageous, was n''t it, Trent?
12776It''s a fearful thing to believe,Darrin admitted,"but what are we to believe?
12776Knocked you down, did n''t he?
12776Ladies,asked Lieutenant Trent,"have you been roughly treated by the Mexicans?"
12776Lieutenant Cantor, do you consider yourself fit to command others?
12776Madam,inquired Darrin, half turning,"may I have the pleasure of escorting you to your friends?"
12776More watching--- and waiting?
12776No war against a country that has treated our citizens so outrageously? 12776 No war?"
12776Nor to anyone else on this ship?
12776Not even in self- defence?
12776Not even under orders?
12776Not war?
12776Now, am I a dreamer?
12776Now, are n''t you ready to admit that you heard me ask,''Am I a liar''?
12776Now, what has the scoundrel found to fasten upon me?
12776On duty, Cantor?
12776Open for callers?
12776Our government is n''t going to surrender us to the Huerta forces, is it?
12776Pardon, but shall we have time for our prayers?
12776Positive about that?
12776Serious?
12776Shall I carry your suit cases, sir, to the deck?
12776Shall I have the machine gun brought up, sir?
12776Shall I wind up this Greaser, sir?
12776Shall we pursue, sir?
12776Shoot you?
12776Shot?
12776Simply because I am the ranking officer with this detachment?
12776Sir, do you wish me to hand my sword to you?
12776Sir, may I ask you a question connected with my own personal affairs?
12776Sir?
12776So he''s going to look for you and find you, then settle up this night''s business with you, is he?
12776Tell you what, sir?
12776That taxicab number?
12776The bare details of the dispute there over the insult to the Flag?
12776The thought that you could scare two poor little ensigns so badly that they would n''t be able to sleep to- night?
12776Then nothing of unusual importance has happened, which would make us sure that we are heading for Mexico on a definite fighting errand?
12776Then why did n''t you?
12776Then you did not take this envelope from my room?
12776Then you told Trent nothing about last night?
12776There''s something up, is n''t there?
12776They are?
12776Time for your prayers?
12776Was that the thought that made you look so happy when you came in here?
12776Was there any trouble?
12776We are going to Mexico, sir, in fighting trim, are we not?
12776We have n''t heard of any,Trent replied,"Yet how can we be sure that he has n''t any submarine craft?"
12776Were there any enlisted men in your office, sir?
12776Were you successful?
12776What am I trying to do to him?
12776What are you doing?
12776What are you trying to do to that youngster?
12776What can we be waiting for?
12776What danger?
12776What did that chap say?
12776What did you say, Darrin?
12776What do you mean, sir?
12776What infernal work is going on here?
12776What kind of a trip was it?
12776What was it, sir, that you did to provoke Cosetta into ordering his fellows to fire?
12776What was it?
12776What''s happening below?
12776What''s in the wind?
12776What''s that?
12776What''s the idea, anyway, in stopping shore leave?
12776What''s your interest in this Darrin fellow?
12776When?
12776Where are we heading now?
12776Where did you get that information?
12776Where is that officer now?
12776Where is the excuse that was to be furnished us for fighting?
12776Whereaway?
12776Which shall it be, then?
12776Who''s there?
12776Why did Lieutenant Cantor seem to enjoy his privilege so much?
12776Why should we have to send landing parties so far from Vera Cruz?
12776Will that fight with Cosetta inflame the Mexican mind?
12776Will you be good enough to come out?
12776Will you wait, or have you papers that can be left with me?
12776With Mexican soldiers?
12776Wo n''t there be some mad soldier- boys?
12776Yes, sir? 12776 Yes, sir?"
12776You are authorized to be ashore, of course?
12776You are from an American warship, are you not?
12776You do not expect me to wish you luck in a matter like this, sir?
12776You fired upon the natives?
12776You have both reports?
12776You have no knowledge of how this envelope came to be in your quarters?
12776You knew me to be of the Navy, sir?
12776You knocked him down?
12776You''ll have it dressed, sir, wo n''t you, as soon as you get aboard the''_ Long Island_''again?
12776You''re an American?
12776You, Cantor, and here?
12776And did you know that the aviator succeeded in dropping oranges down the funnels of English warships?
12776Any further orders?"
12776But the Old Man regarded him keenly, asking:"What is wrong between Cantor and yourself?"
12776CHAPTER III THE JUNIOR WORM TURNS"Wonder what my man has in store for me?"
12776CHAPTER XII THE MAN OF THE EVIL EYE"The captain''s compliments, sir, and will Ensign Darrin report to him immediately?"
12776CHAPTER XXI A RESCUE AND A"FACER""You''re sure of that?"
12776Can it be that Cantor is the scoundrel?
12776Can you picture an officer as telling a deliberate falsehood?"
12776Carmody?"
12776Carmody?"
12776Conclusion CHAPTER I READY FOR FIGHT OR FROLIC"Do you care to go out this evening, Danny boy?"
12776Danny Grin soon found time to murmur the question:"How did you get along with your tyrant this afternoon?"
12776Darrin?"
12776Darrin?"
12776Darrin?"
12776Darrin?"
12776Did your fire hit any of the Mexicans?"
12776Do n''t I know how easy that ought to be for him?
12776Finally only the voice of Lieutenant Commander Denton was heard as he inquired:"Sir, are we entitled to ask any questions?"
12776From above sounded a voice demanding in Spanish:"Shall I let the prisoners go?"
12776Had he made a mistake in invading this house, only to find that his mission was to be fruitless?
12776Had war been declared?
12776Has Huerta accepted, too?"
12776Have you heard that, a year or more ago, an English aviator flew over warships at a height greater than the gunners below could possibly have reached?
12776I-----""Going to leave me, are you?"
12776If such a demand be made upon me, which of you young men shall be the one to go?"
12776If we land, to capture Vera Cruz, are our men to be tortured in heavy, hot, blue uniforms here in the tropics?
12776If you were outside my door at the time, then you know that I asked Darrin,''Am I a liar?''
12776Is n''t it likely that the garrison would be greatly increased?"
12776Is n''t that so, Gunner''s Mate Riley?"
12776Is that report correct?"
12776Is the Colt loaded and ashore?"
12776May I ask, sir, how many officers received shore leave, and used it, after I returned to the ship?"
12776Now he stepped to Dan''s door, calling in:"May I come in, old fellow?"
12776Now, then, Cantor, what explanation have you to offer for being in the house of Cosetta, the bandit?"
12776Now, what are you smiling at, Darrin?"
12776Of what service could the letter be to me, sir?
12776Or are we to wear these white clothes and make ourselves the most perfect marks for the enemy''s sharpshooters?"
12776So what hope is there that war can be averted?
12776So you believe, sir, that the people of the United States are practically a unit for taking a strong hand in Mexican affairs?"
12776Suppose those oranges had been bombs?"
12776Tell me, sir, how are the ladies this morning?"
12776That gives some idea of the spitefulness of a bullet, does n''t it?"
12776There was silence, broken at last by Lieutenant Cantor asking:"May I make a suggestion, sir?"
12776What can you tell me about that?"
12776What is Dalzell going to do about contact bombs that might be dropped on deck or superstructure of a battleship?"
12776Which excelled the other in map work at Annapolis?"
12776Would I have saved the envelope and by so doing taken a chance that could only ruin me?
12776You condemn Darrin-----""Who is speaking?"
12776You have an officer, have n''t you, to help me with field notes on this survey?"
12776You know that of your own knowledge, and from what the marine orderly has been able to inform you, sir?"
52637A design of the_ Manhattan_?
52637Aero service, eh?
52637Ah, so you are awake at last, Mister Sailor,said Herr Muller;"may I trouble you to come into the other cabin?
52637Ai n''t you going to put handcuffs on him?
52637And this-- this cruise, I presume, it is n''t for our health?
52637Are n''t your nerves shaken?
52637Are they going to chuck me overboard?
52637Are you going to be quiet?
52637Bulkley, do you see some object in the air-- off there to the northwest?
52637But how about Ben Franklin, who advanced the money to buy the ships, or at least saw that it was raised?
52637But how did Chance and Merritt come to join them?
52637But what are you going to do this afternoon?
52637But what can have become of the sloop, sir?
52637But what for? 52637 But what if she glided up on pontoons?"
52637But what''s the matter with our looking about a bit more? 52637 But why-- why do you want it?"
52637But you have arranged in some way to make success certain?
52637But you understand the naval code, too, do n''t you?
52637By Jove, you can? 52637 By the way, what makes those fellows so sore at you?"
52637Can you advance me the money?
52637Catching?
52637Der message I vant iss a navy message, you onderstond dot?
52637Did you have much to do with them on their first cruise?
52637Do you mean to say that you do n''t credit a word of my story?
52637Do you mind standing out of the way?
52637Do you think it is possible they could be such traitors?
52637Do you think they have some rendezvous in the neighborhood?
52637Donnervetter, vos is diss?
52637Eavesdropping, eh?
52637Fog, eh?
52637Giving up?
52637Good heavens, can one place no trust in human nature?
52637Gracious,he thought impatiently,"what''s the matter with me, anyway?
52637Has Muller got the keys?
52637Have to climb into the seat to fix it?
52637His name is n''t Taylor, this chap''s companion, humph?
52637How about me?
52637How do I make it out? 52637 How do you like my singing?"
52637How do you make that out?
52637How do you make that out?
52637How far is it to Blackhaven?
52637How far off is the place?
52637How is that, Bulkley?
52637How is that?
52637How is your comrade?
52637How much further?
52637How?
52637Hullo, Benjamin Franklin; were you rubbering on our conversation?
52637Hurt, sir?
52637I beg your pardon, sir, but could I speak to you a moment?
52637I guess a bullet nicked me,grinned Ned;"it is n''t much of a wound, is it?"
52637I should like to, above all things, sir,rejoined Ned, with sparkling eyes;"but who will go?"
52637I understand wireless,he said;"what messages do you want taken?"
52637I wonder how much they overheard?
52637I wonder if they mean to take us off some place in a boat?
52637I wonder what they mean to do with me?
52637I? 52637 If any one comes down, shall I tackle them?"
52637If they ask us why we dropped like that, I''ll say we were trying out the pontoons, eh?
52637If we surrender, will you show us clemency?
52637Is that a gun he has there, Strong?
52637Is that so?
52637Is the boat ready?
52637Is thet feller real or jes''one uv them clockwork dummies yer read about?
52637Is this the place?
52637Is-- is there anything else you''d like to know, sir?
52637It is, is it?
52637It seems as if-- hullo, what-- what''s that? 52637 Like them,"repeated Chance indignantly,"I should say not, I hate-- but what do you want to know for?"
52637May I tell you our side of the story, dating from the hour you mentioned?
52637Meet you to talk moonshine? 52637 Merritt, what are you out of your place for?"
52637Not giving up, are you, Ned?
52637Now where shall I row to?
52637Oh, burning himself out of prison?
52637Oh, it is n''t, eh?
52637Oh, it is, is it?
52637Oh, that''s it, is it?
52637Our water supply has run rather low,said Herr Muller, watching the Dreadnought Boy narrowly,"did you notice anything peculiar about that water?"
52637Pearson hailed Paul Jones and shouted out,''Have you struck your colors yet?'' 52637 Phwat''s thot about docthors?"
52637Py golly, dot feller Neddie he fly like vun birdt, alretty, ain''d it?
52637Py golly, vot now comes?
52637Rather a strenuous joke, was n''t it?
52637Ready?
52637Say, Ned, it''s an awful long way up there, is n''t it? 52637 Say, you fellows,"suddenly interpolated a voice,"if you think Strong is such a bluff, why do n''t you tell him so?"
52637Say, young feller,he said to Ned,"if you know so much about aeroplanes, just tell me what ails this motor?"
52637See that old sloop off there to seaward? 52637 Since when has it been the custom in the United States navy for men to disgrace the service and go unpunished?"
52637So Ned Strong is trying to sneak into favor again, eh?
52637So this is the way you men repay my trust in you?
52637So you thought you''d tip us off to the_ Manhattan_, eh?
52637So you''ve read it?
52637Take that bit of ribbon they wear, for instance-- what is it? 52637 Talking of plans, did they take back the ones of the pontoon aeroplane?"
52637Thank you, sir,rejoined Ned, flushing gratefully, and his eyes shining,"at what time, sir?"
52637That you, boys?
52637Then you are sure that it was Muller and that crowd?
52637Then you are willing to talk business with us?
52637Vos is idt, dot''haz- az- abluss''?
52637Vot I care aboudt blonde young vimins?
52637W- e- l- l?
52637W- e- l- l?
52637Want to go higher?
52637Well, have you any explanation to offer?
52637Well, have you made up your minds?
52637Well, my lad,said the commander briskly,"what is the meaning of all this?"
52637Well, providing you feel there is no danger, why not try such an experiment?
52637Well, supposing I make one, what is there in it for me?
52637Well, what do you know about them? 52637 Well, what do you want?"
52637Well, what is it?
52637Well, when we were on submarine duty we explored the bottom of the sea, did n''t we? 52637 Well,"growled the King gruffly,"what''s up?"
52637Well,he said quickly,"what can I do for you?"
52637Well,said Herr Muller, with a quiet smile tinged with some contempt,"what do you think of my credentials?"
52637Well,said Ned, in the calm, even tone which seemed to come to him in all emergencies,"what do you mean to do with us now?"
52637Well,said Ned, when the first apparently warm greetings were over,"what is it you want us to do?"
52637Were they alone?
52637What are we going to build a fire with?
52637What are we going to do? 52637 What are you laughing at?"
52637What are you so busy over, my lad?
52637What are you thinking about, Ned?
52637What do you mean by''they''?
52637What do you mean?
52637What do you think I am-- crazy, as you are?
52637What do you think we are-- a couple of birds?
52637What do you want pistols for? 52637 What do you want to know for?"
52637What does she want with a wireless apparatus?
52637What for?
52637What has happened? 52637 What is it?"
52637What is the occasion for all this?
52637What is this grand project, if I may ask?
52637What kind er moonshine be that, young chap?
52637What nonsense is dot?
52637What on earth can be up now?
52637What on earth has happened?
52637What on earth is he doing that for?
52637What sort of a place is this?
52637What struck us?
52637What would you want this drawing to show?
52637What''s Ned up to now?
52637What''s that?
52637What''s the matter with Carter? 52637 What''s the matter?"
52637What''s under here, I wonder?
52637What''s up here? 52637 What''s up, Herc?"
52637What''s up, watch turning out?
52637What''s up?
52637What''s worth trying?
52637What, is Ned on board?
52637What-- why?
52637What? 52637 When did Paul Jones say that?"
52637When will my case be heard?
52637Where did you meet my shipmate?
52637Where is he?
52637Where is he?
52637Who else would have done such a thing?
52637Who ever heard such nonsense? 52637 Why, what''s the matter?
52637Why?
52637Wo n''t, eh? 52637 Wonder if they think we''re some big sort of a gull?"
52637Would it be possible to carry a sharpshooter, for instance, from the deck of this vessel, circle a hostile craft and return?
52637Would n''t it be a good plan to notify the police?
52637Yer do n''t go ter thinkin''we puts any stock in such talk as thet, do yer? 52637 You all follow my meaning?"
52637You and your friend will agree, then, that I am worth talking business with?
52637You did n''t know it?
52637You do n''t like Ned Strong or Herc Taylor?
52637You do n''t seriously think that there is any chance of Strong''s giving you a tussle for the first place?
52637You had n''t any reason to suppose I''d be asleep, had you?
52637You mean Bill Kennell?
52637You mean that you have heard we have been engaged in some discreditable prank, sir?
52637You mean you would dare to destroy or try to damage, the property of the United States?
52637You really think so, Tandy?
52637You the manager of this sheebang?
52637You understand?
52637You were talking about Ned Strong and Herc Taylor and some plans they had?
52637You''re going to desert?
52637You''re not after thinking he''s a foreign spy?
52637You''re thinking of that chap who''s been snooping around here for the last week posing as a newspaper photographer?
52637You''ve got news of them?
52637_ Yes, she''s all right; but she''s not as pretty as the blonde operator at Key West._"Is that the message you were expecting?
52637Air you comin''quiet, or air yer comin''rough?"
52637Am I a baby or a girl?
52637Am I to understand that you threw that potato?"
52637And what could be its errand here?"
52637Another thing-- how about matches?"
52637Are there not three of you against one?
52637At the same time a spiteful voice snarled:"Our career has ended, eh?
52637Be you flying sailors?"
52637But are you sure you''ve got it at last?"
52637But how about you?
52637But then, what is that contraption out there?"
52637But then, with a return to his former bravado:"What business have you eavesdropping, anyhow?
52637But what on earth does all this mean?"
52637But what particular brand of mischief is he up to now, do you think?"
52637But what the dickens was the matter with that torpedo?"
52637But whatever hit you, Herc?"
52637But who that knows about them could use them to advantage?"
52637But who''s that with you?
52637But whom have I got to thank?
52637But-- but did n''t it make you sleepy?"
52637By the way, has anything further ever been heard of those rascals who tried to discredit them?"
52637By the way, have you any pistols for us?
52637By the way, of course you heard about the clever manner in which Strong and Taylor prevented the destruction of the submarine?"
52637Do n''t you think it''s worth while to board that schooner, anyhow?"
52637Do you think they''ll starve us to death?"
52637How could one find its way to Blackhaven Bay?
52637How far, I wonder?"
52637I guess we''ll keep our eyes on our two friends, eh, Herc?"
52637I hope I am not doing wrong in reporting this, sir?"
52637I wonder what she wants?"
52637In the first place, did you bring the disguises?"
52637In the meantime, what of Ned?
52637Is it that which you refer to?"
52637Is n''t that enough?"
52637Look here, Herc, have you anything in the shape of a wrench about you?"
52637On time, ai n''t we?"
52637Page 86, changed?
52637See any obstacles in the way?"
52637Some day you break your neck, undt den I take picdgure of you-- yes, no?"
52637Suppose you look yourself, sir?"
52637Taylor?"
52637Therefore, what is the use of equipping the ships with such craft?
52637To perish on a sandy islet off the Atlantic Coast, while the sloop forged ahead on her errand of destruction?
52637Was it possible that all this was real?
52637Was this to be his destiny?
52637Well?"
52637Whar''s that pickpocket yer telephoned about?"
52637What are you tramping about in that rig for?"
52637What business is it of yours, eh?"
52637What could the place be?
52637What could you do?"
52637What do you think they fired at us for?"
52637What do you want with little us?"
52637What do you want, young man?"
52637What does it signify?"
52637What if they should see him with handcuffs on?
52637What is it?"
52637What of it?"
52637What was that old anecdote you told me once about Paul burning his way out of a prison some place?"
52637What would they think?
52637What''s that fellow doing now?"
52637What''s that he''s shouting?
52637What''s that?"
52637What''s the aviator doing?
52637Where is your companion?"
52637Why?"
52637Wonder what they are plotting now?"
52637Would the current drift it within his reach, or would it be carried tantalizingly past him?
52637Would the_ Manhattan_ never answer?
52637Would you mind telling it?"
52637Yes-- no?"
52637You are certain that you are correct in your report?"
52637You are pitted against Taylor in the pole vault, are n''t you?"
52637You are sure that the fellow who annoyed you had no companions, madam?"
52637You are, of course, willing to sign a paper absolving the navy from responsibility in case of your death or serious injury?"
52637You do n''t mean to say you''ve brooded over that story so much you believe it yourself?"
52637You know that little swinging trap at the bottom of the door?"
52637You mean that we burn ourselves out of here?"
52637You''re in good trim, Ned?"
52637brusquely rejoined the other;"since when have you qualified as an expert?"
52637burst out Herc,"could n''t you recognize any of them?"
52637chuckled Ned,"did n''t Shakespeare work over old stories into great plays?"
52637cried Ned, sinking to his knees beside his comrade,"are you badly hurt?"
52637exclaimed Ned, genuinely pleased,"what are you doing here?"
52637he exclaimed suddenly,"you do n''t think those chaps have disguised her, do you?"
52637jeered Chance, thrusting his face forward evilly,"you think we''ll tell you, do n''t yer?
52637said the man, when he concluded,"and so you want money to rejoin the fleet at Blackhaven?"
52637where have I seen that log before?"
52637whistled Herc, with huge assumed surprise,"you do n''t say so?
26778A blow? 26778 A burglar?"
26778A doughnut with legs on?
26778A reward?
26778And Jack Ready, what about him?
26778And what happened? 26778 And you are prepared to turn this instrument over to the United States navy?"
26778And-- and I get no reward?
26778Any more news, Ready?
26778Any of you gents know this young bantam I''ve got triced up here?
26778Are those the names they gave?
26778Are you Jack Ready?
26778Are you crazy?
26778Are you going to let me go?
26778Are you going to report this conversation?
26778Are you ready to release me?
26778As I was passing the Willard to- night I saw Simms, and who do you think was with him?
26778Billy, old fellow, what in the world? 26778 Bright looking lad, ai n''t he?"
26778But say, was n''t that the limit?
26778But what do you think of my quarters, Billy?
26778But will your craft keep afloat that long?
26778But-- but, sir,stuttered Jack, greatly mystified,"who did this?"
26778But-- but-- who is he?
26778By jinks, do you see who they are?
26778By the way, speaking of the navy, did you hear from Captain Simms?
26778Can I buy a meal here?
26778Can I get anyone to drive me back there?
26778Can I join you?
26778Can not be what?
26778Can you repair our boat quickly?
26778Confound it all,burst out Jarrow,"do you think they know we are here?"
26778Could what be possible, sir?
26778Did n''t see nothing of a kid back there in the road, did yer?
26778Did n''t you have a hunt made for Judson when you reached New York?
26778Did they take him into the room?
26778Did ye say my harness was untied?
26778Do n''t you know that my friends are in the neighborhood? 26778 Do n''t you think there''s a chance of getting the code back?"
26778Do we? 26778 Do you boys mind?
26778Do you know anything about the Judsons and Jarrow?
26778Do you own the water hereabouts?
26778Do you think we''ll be able to get all of them off?
26778Do-- I-- get-- my-- reward-- right-- away?
26778Does n''t he talk English?
26778Doyouwantmetofixit?
26778From the Pine Island hotel, you mean?
26778Getting near a village?
26778Gracious, where have you been?
26778Great Neptune, has the boy gone mad?
26778Great to be home again, is n''t it, old fellow?
26778Had n''t we better run in for shelter somewhere?
26778Had to what?
26778Have I got authority to use your name, Senator?
26778Have I? 26778 Have you any reason to fear being spied upon?"
26778Have you been listening right along?
26778Have you nearly completed your work?
26778He ca n''t be fooling, can he?
26778He was attacked, then, for purposes of robbery, do you think?
26778Heavens, what''s that?
26778Here, what''s this?
26778How are you going?
26778How did you get here? 26778 How do you make that out?"
26778How in the world do you know that?
26778How much will the reward be?
26778How''s that?
26778Huh, I''d be a fine softy to do that, would n''t I? 26778 Hullo, Judson, back again?
26778Hullo, fellows,he exclaimed,"is-- is anybody hurt?"
26778Hullo, what''s that I see on the roof?
26778Hullo, what''s up outside?
26778I guess that''s about the program, is n''t it, Jack?
26778I see, you want to catch him red- handed, but what about those cipher radios?
26778I wonder how the rascal became acquainted with Judson?
26778I wonder if he followed us up to- day on purpose to try to ram us or force us on a sandbar?
26778I''d like to know if I can buy a meal here?
26778In the name of heaven what was that?
26778In trouble, eh?
26778Is dot so? 26778 Is it a bad smash?"
26778Is it a doughnut with legs on it?
26778Is it a mortal wound?
26778Is it? 26778 Is that so?"
26778Is your life worth anything to you?
26778Is-- is the man dead?
26778It''s haunted, too, is n''t it, Bill?
26778Judson''s craft, the one that ran us down? 26778 Just what is that?"
26778Livin''there?
26778May I add my congratulations?
26778Me? 26778 Never attempt such a thing again,"said Jack angrily,"or----""Or what, my nervous young friend?"
26778No more attempts to steal his work, or to spy on him?
26778Nobody hurt, I hope?
26778Nonsense, you''ve got your business in New York to attend to, and, as for adventures, I''ve had plenty of them for a time, have n''t you, Billy?
26778Now I wonder what they''ve got up there?
26778Now what?
26778Now, what shall be the next step?
26778Oh- ho, datsa eet ees it?
26778Phwat''s the mather?
26778Say, gimme a ride, will yer?
26778Say, you''re not that fresh fellow himself talking just to kid us, are you?
26778See that cloud bank over yonder, that ragged one?
26778Shall we help you?
26778Sheer off there,roared Jack at the top of his lungs, to the occupants of the other boat;"do you want to run us down?"
26778Show me to your wireless room, will you, Ned?
26778So Ready is here, eh?
26778So it''s not patented, eh?
26778So they did find me out, after all?
26778So this is that Ready kid I hearn you talkin''about?
26778So you thought you''d spy on us, did you?
26778So you''re still a wireless boy?
26778So, young man, you are going to play the part of bully, are you?
26778Suppose I tell you I know nothing about the naval code?
26778Surely not Hiram Judson?
26778Tell you what,said Billy,"let''s take a swim, eh, fellows?"
26778The one- legged old sea captain?
26778Then we are dealing with bad men?
26778Then what''s the sense of asking me?
26778Then you can tell who was to blame?
26778Think I''m afraid, eh?
26778Think you''d better, eh?
26778Vell, vot am I to do?
26778Vos is los?
26778WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF IT?
26778WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF IT?
26778Well, Billy, this is different from the old_ Ajax_, eh?
26778Well, Ready, what have you to say?
26778Well, do n''t octo- octo- thing- a- my- jigs have legs?
26778Well, look at that, will you?
26778Well, what do you know about that?
26778Well, what do you say?
26778Well, what''s the matter with having one?
26778Well, what''s the news?
26778Well?
26778Whadda you do- a here?
26778What are you after doing here?
26778What are you doing here, Ned?
26778What are you following us for? 26778 What can be the matter with these people?
26778What can he be? 26778 What can they be doing here?"
26778What did he ever do to you?
26778What do you call it?
26778What do you intend to do with me?
26778What do you make of it?
26778What do you mean by calling me a beat?
26778What do you mean?
26778What do you mean?
26778What do you think, Jack?
26778What does he look like?
26778What fo''you alls come makin''such a cumsturbance at dis yar hour ob de night?
26778What gives you that impression?
26778What happened?
26778What have you done with Jack?
26778What in the world are you doing here?
26778What made you select Musky Bay as a retreat?
26778What ought I to do?
26778What rumpus?
26778What time will that auto be at the corner?
26778What tricks would I have, Ready?
26778What was that name?
26778What was the accident?
26778What was the reason he never did any more work for the government?
26778What will we do next?
26778What will we do?
26778What''ll I do, Jack?
26778What''ll we do, Jack?
26778What''s an octo- octo-- what- you- may- call-''um doughnut, anyhow?
26778What''s happened-- somebody wirelessed you that you''re heir to a million?
26778What''s that about yer feet?
26778What''s that?
26778What''s that?
26778What''s the matter?
26778What''s the matter?
26778What''s the trouble-- want a tow- rope?
26778What''s the trouble?
26778What''s the use of questioning him, dad?
26778What''s up now?
26778What''s up?
26778What, you know nothing about the code?
26778What_ can_ be the matter? 26778 Whatever put that idea into your head, Noddy?"
26778Whatsa da mat''?
26778Whatsa da mat''?
26778Where are you going, Noddy?
26778Where are you going?
26778Where are you taking me to?
26778Where can he be?
26778Where did you come from?
26778Where is that boy who started all this?
26778Where is this Captain Simms?
26778Where on earth am I?
26778Who are you?
26778Who is this?
26778Who is this?
26778Why do n''t you have them arrested right now?
26778Why do n''t you put the whole thing up to the captain?
26778Why not? 26778 Why the deuce was he so mysterious about it?"
26778Why what''s the matter? 26778 Why, do you know him, sir?"
26778Why, that Judson and the others are on board that black craft?
26778William Raynor, eh? 26778 With Captain Simms-- that is,"he hurried on, in an effort to correct his blunder,"I----""Know a kid named Ready-- Jack Ready?"
26778Wonder if he''s listening now?
26778Wonder where Judson and his crowd have gone to?
26778Wonder who those fellows are?
26778Yes, and then what?
26778Yes, but what is it? 26778 Yes, what''s that got to do with it?"
26778Yes, where is he?
26778Yes,replied Jack,"can we have her by to- morrow?"
26778Yes,said the lad, with an unpleasant grin,"what will you do?"
26778Yes-- yes-- what-- is-- it?
26778Yes-- yes-- yes,he shot back,"who-- is-- it?"
26778You do n''t know if it''s finished or not?
26778You do n''t mean that you committed any act of violence?
26778You do n''t think it''s a put- up job to get money out of the government? 26778 You have been to Washington, Jarrow?"
26778You heard us planning-- er-- er something?
26778You knowa desa boy?
26778You mean that you are going to imprison me?
26778You recollect having a little fun with our navy operators?
26778You think so, eh? 26778 You wanted to see me on important business, captain?"
26778Are you alone?"
26778But are you ill, sir?
26778But can you pull us off?"
26778But say, how did you ever get on to our sending?
26778But still, what am I going to do?
26778But the question is, have they got the code?
26778But where is he?"
26778But where was Jack?
26778By whom?"
26778Ca n''t somebody hit him on the head with a club?"
26778Ca n''t yez be lettin''a dacent family slape in pace?"
26778Can you direct me?"
26778Could Billy and his companions carry out their part of the program?
26778Could Thurman have----?
26778Does our man suspect anything?"
26778Even a man as base as you would n''t dare----""I would n''t, eh?
26778Have you seen anything of him?"
26778He-- here, what''s the matter?"
26778Helen cried sympathetically,"did you have to sleep in that cold, moist night?"
26778How far do you reckon we are from home?"
26778How''s the weather up your way?"
26778Hullo, what''s that on the floor?"
26778I do n''t suppose your uncle will worry about you?"
26778I said''Can I get a meal?''"
26778I wonder if they would have dared to carry him off?
26778I wonder what time that ship sails?
26778Is anything the matter?"
26778Is his friendship worth having?
26778Is there any danger?"
26778Ned, is your father up yet?"
26778Recovering himself, he shot out another message:"Who is this?"
26778Stop, ca n''t you?
26778Supposing they pulled away from the scene without seeing him?
26778Surely he had not been foolhardy enough to face the marauders alone?
26778The window?
26778Then a low, cautious voice whispered out of the darkness:"What''s the matter, Bill?
26778There was a pause and then Bill roared out:"What''s that to you if it is?"
26778Think I''d bother with insignificant chaps like you and your little toy boat?"
26778This is the fellow who took them?"
26778Thurman?"
26778Undt who iss you?"
26778Vos iss idt I care aboupt your droubles?
26778Want to have another collision?"
26778Well, are you ready to tell us who this chap is who''s been mystifying us so?"
26778Well, how did things go?"
26778Whar yer goin''?"
26778What can he do?
26778What could be the matter?
26778What could have happened to his chum?
26778What could it be?
26778What do you mean by doing such a thing?"
26778What has happened?"
26778What if Noddy were dead and had been rescued too late?
26778What in the world is he doing up here?"
26778What is the nature of it?
26778What scheme would I have in mind?
26778What shall we do with him?"
26778What was happening below?
26778What was the use of taking chances?
26778What''s all this coming up the driveway?"
26778What''s he done?"
26778What''s it for?"
26778What''s that thing?"
26778What''s the matter with you?"
26778What''s up?"
26778When will you call me again?"
26778Where did you spring from?"
26778Where is he?"
26778Who did dis?"
26778Who is he?
26778Who were the rascals?"
26778Who you stopping with?"
26778Why did n''t you say what you wanted in the fust place?"
26778Why do n''t you try fair dealing for a change?"
26778Why, do you know him, Jarrow?"
26778Will he make one of the school teams?
26778Will no one help me?"
26778Will you answer them?"
26778Will you show me the way?"
26778Will you wire Washington of my intention to proceed there with all speed when I arrive?
26778Would you like to hear the story?"
26778You are not going to the department to- night?"
26778You lads want to come?"
26778where are you?"
22431A bad street?
22431And I?
22431And a Japanese nobleman?
22431And dishonesty?
22431And he, also, is tired of Monte Carlo?
22431And if he has not?
22431And if the sailor does try to get out to the fleet?
22431And if we meet her and if she speaks to us, sir?
22431And in that case?
22431And of what nationality? 22431 And so--?"
22431And that is why you term it dishonest?
22431And the friend?
22431And what do you mean by that?
22431And why are you so certain of that?
22431And why?
22431And you have remembered the lesson?
22431And you will never again allow yourself to become so downcast that you will seek to destroy yourself?
22431And you, Dalzell?
22431And you, sir? 22431 Any more, sir?"
22431Any one know whether the barometer is talking about a storm?
22431Are the public places of interest likely to be open in the evening?
22431Are we going to ride up to the Casino?
22431Are you going?
22431Are you interested, Monsieur Dalny, in the length of our stay here?
22431Are you looking at me with any particular significance?
22431Are you seeking the submarine?
22431Are you to be here long at Naples, Monsieur Darrin?
22431But do you call it a fair kind of trap?
22431But what am I to do about this chicken?
22431But what will become of you?
22431But where would the plotters secure an American torpedo?
22431But why?
22431But you will doubtless play later?
22431But, my boy, do n''t you realize that there are more than three or four Apaches around the Rue d''Ansin? 22431 By the way, Mr. Darrin, do you think you could identify those two men who talked of the proposed destruction of the British battleships?"
22431Ca n''t you understand them?
22431Can he think that we would enter such shops, and buy the plunder that thieves have sold there?
22431Can you put him off without hurting him?
22431Can you speak any Italian?
22431Captain Allen,he asked,"what do you think of Mr. Darrin''s surmise?"
22431Dan, are you still going to try to catch Barnes?
22431Danny Grin, do n''t you credit me with more sense than that? 22431 Danny boy,"Dave rebuked him,"where do you hope to go after you die?"
22431Darrin and Dalzell are to be killed, then?
22431Darrin,he said,"can you tell me why it is that a woodchuck never leaves any dirt heaped up around the edge of his hole?"
22431Did I catch him?
22431Did I not tell you that I was born a gentleman?
22431Did he, at the last moment, fail in the courage necessary to lead the Americans into the trap that I had baited for them?
22431Did n''t_ see_ any fellow running?
22431Did you see that fellow?
22431Did you stop the fellow who ran this way, sir?
22431Do I ask any more of them than you do?
22431Do I show it?
22431Do n''t these people like music, that a street singer should drive them inside?
22431Do n''t you know yourself, Wales?
22431Do you believe I''d waste my time on such rubbish as that?
22431Do you believe that the Frenchman was telling the truth?
22431Do you believe the fellow?
22431Do you consider Paris a joke?
22431Do you consider me a gentleman or-- a rascal?
22431Do you expect me to return to you, sir?
22431Do you find, Marquis, that it pays any better than being a Filipino mess attendant?
22431Do you know whether others of the crew, besides Surigny, are in Valetta?
22431Do you mean to charge that I ran away?
22431Does your message from Admiral Barkham concern the Frenchman''s report?
22431Has it been the wrong kind of company for a gentleman to keep?
22431Have I your permission to proceed, sir?
22431Have I your permission, sir, to ask if that was Ensign Darrin''s letter and if it was in good order?
22431Have you heard the port for which we''re bound, Danny?
22431Have you seen any of the bally spies?
22431Have you told Dalzell?
22431Here, what are you up to?
22431How badly is he hurt?
22431How dare you? 22431 How did I come to overlook it?"
22431How did you work it?
22431How do you do, Monsieur le Comte?
22431How long is that strip of beach, the Riviera?
22431How many launches will Admiral Barkham put in service?
22431How much have you lost, Darrin?
22431How so?
22431How will you like it if I promise to pay you back fully for that trick? 22431 How''s that?"
22431How, Monsieur?
22431How?
22431I wonder if she''s a''spy- ess''?
22431I wonder what has become of Gortchky?
22431If either of us should meet the Countess Ripoli again, sir,queried Dan,"have you any orders, sir, in that event?"
22431In doing so, do you feel the slightest hesitation?
22431In that case-- what?
22431Is Linton far from here?
22431Is he, sir?
22431Is it permitted to ask if you have found employment?
22431Is it the part of Paris where one would come to meet or to confer with desperate criminals?
22431Is that an official order?
22431Is that true?
22431Is the ship under way?
22431Is there any good reason why I should believe you?
22431Is there anything else, gentlemen, that you wish to say to me before we go to the Admiral?
22431Is there anything that I can do in this matter, sir?
22431Is there gambling going on in that club?
22431Is there no way of compromising?
22431It''s hard for an Englishman to conceive of such a crime as being possible, is n''t it?
22431Jetson,he asked,"did you know it was I who was menaced by the Apaches?"
22431Jetson?
22431Lost all your money, have you? 22431 May I answer that question to an officer of my own country?"
22431May I ask my new American friend why_ he_ should waste his time here?
22431May I ask to what this talk is leading?
22431May I fire, sir?
22431May I see Mr. Caine at once?
22431May I speak with you, sir?
22431May I try a shot now, sir?
22431Meaning that you now have as much money as when you entered the place?
22431Monsieur Mender,hurried on Dalny,"you recall that evening on the Casino veranda at Monte Carlo?
22431Monsieur,cried the Frenchman, as if in sudden desperation,"are you prepared to accept my word as you would wish your own to be accepted?"
22431Mr. Darrin,he demanded,"are you positive of the words that you have just repeated?"
22431Mr. Lupton, you have doubtless had Jetson''s assurance that these young men are the persons they claim to be?
22431Much?
22431My question?
22431Not even if we have some idle time there?
22431Nothing more?
22431Now, what do you make out of all we have heard and seen?
22431Now, what have you to tell me?
22431Now, what mischief can he be up to?
22431Now, what''s the matter?
22431Off the train altogether, do you mean, Runkle?
22431Oh, am I not?
22431Orders from an officer of this ship?
22431Poor?
22431Ripoli?
22431Runkle, do you know where Lieutenant Whyte is?
22431Say,murmured Danny Grin, in an aside,"do you think Barnes will be very angry when he pays over that thirty- three dollars?"
22431Shall I leave any instructions for your being called, sir?
22431Shall I send Runkle ashore in uniform or in citizen''s dress?
22431Shall we move on?
22431Sir?
22431Steward, do you wish me to summon my men and have these cabin doors battered down?
22431Suspect-- what?
22431That strikes you as a most serious loss, does it not?
22431That''s hardly a fair catch, is it?
22431The haunt of criminals?
22431The paper that was stolen from you did not in any way relate to the defenses and fortifications here at Gibraltar, did it?
22431Then I shall take this paper with me?
22431Then do you work?
22431Then have n''t you asked a question that you ca n''t answer?
22431Then that of which he claims to have been robbed is nothing that could officially interest me?
22431Then where?
22431Then why are you interested in what the fellow might do?
22431Then you believe, sir, that I have really discovered the plot?
22431Then you have been serving me?
22431Then,asked Dave,"is it indiscreet for me to ask why you have permitted yourself to associate with such company?"
22431Tiresome here, is n''t it?
22431Took Ensign Darrin''s letter away from you?
22431What are you laughing at?
22431What can be in the wind?
22431What can be the matter with that simpleton Dalny?
22431What can this whole thing mean, and does Surigny_ know_ that he is working against the peace and honor of my country?
22431What could be done to us?
22431What do you mean?
22431What do you mean?
22431What flag does she fly?
22431What happened to you, shipmate?
22431What if she even wishes to entertain us, or to claim our escort?
22431What if they''re not here?
22431What is at the bottom of the gambling mania?
22431What is he doing in this night''s work?
22431What is my life?
22431What is that?
22431What is the bad trait, or the vice, that one beholds most at Monte Carlo?
22431What is there left to me to make life worth living?
22431What is your report, Runkle?
22431What on earth can Dalny be driving at?
22431What then?
22431What was that you said about a foolish question?
22431What was the committee''s decision on the subject?
22431What was the other letter addressed to me that was taken away from you, Runkle?
22431What will become of you, my dear Surigny? 22431 What would you do?"
22431What would you do?
22431What''s taking place?
22431What''s the matter?
22431What''s the odds?
22431What?
22431When will the yacht reach these waters?
22431Where are your manners, my man?
22431Where could we go, with the most advantage in the matter of sight- seeing?
22431Where did you learn Italian?
22431Where will you stay for the present, then?
22431Where?
22431Which is the flagship launch?
22431Who addressed that envelope?
22431Who can this Monsieur Dalny be?
22431Who goes there?
22431Who was this?
22431Who will be the ranking officer in your fleet of launches?
22431Who''s there at this hour of the night?
22431Who?
22431Why are you looking back so often?
22431Why did n''t you help me, instead of putting the double cross on me?
22431Why did you pick out alleged bravos who would allow themselves to be put to flight by unarmed men?
22431Why does n''t the fellow take a chance on torpedoing us?
22431Why not levy an assessment upon the members of this mess sufficient to make up the thirty- three dollars? 22431 Why not say that the fault must have been with your choice of bravos?"
22431Why not walk along with me and meet my friend?
22431Why not?
22431Why should I?
22431Why should Totten order you to drag Cushing away from Mr. Green Hat, when that rascal had robbed Cushing of valuable government papers?
22431Why should he?
22431Why should you have the least desire to die?
22431Why? 22431 Why?"
22431Why?
22431Why?
22431Why?
22431Will Monsieur do me the kindness, before I leave him, to make sure that the contents of the wallet are intact?
22431Will he ever give that order?
22431Will he make good?
22431Will you believe what I am about to tell you, as one man of honor speaks to another?
22431Will you send word by wireless to Admiral Timworth, then, sir?
22431Will you step a few yards down the street with me?
22431Will you take me back to the tables?
22431Would it be indiscreet for me to ask if you know why he is coming here?
22431Would it?
22431Would n''t that be asking considerable of a comparative stranger?
22431Would you like to lose him, sir?
22431Would you send Mr. Darrin alone, sir?
22431Yes, sir; but the habits of the buyers should be considered, should they not? 22431 Yet you think we are both weak and dishonest, because we use our time to poor advantage and because so many of us find Monte Carlo delightful?"
22431You are going to advise the officers of your fleet, then?
22431You are not going to oblige him, are you?
22431You are young?
22431You believe that the two young American officers are ashore in Naples as spies upon us?
22431You did it on your own initiative?
22431You do not wish any one allowed to leave the yacht, do you, Lieutenant?
22431You give me your word of honor for that?
22431You have Runkle slated for promotion, of course?
22431You have a Prince aboard?
22431You have been here before?
22431You have enough money now?
22431You have not a flattering idea of the Europeans?
22431You have played to- night?
22431You have seen Gortchky, then?
22431You have something to report, Runkle?
22431You here?
22431You search him for vat, sir?
22431You understand, do you not?
22431You''d rather see my mitts aloft, eh?
22431You''ll excuse me, wo n''t you, sir?
22431You''re an American, are n''t you?
22431You''re no good-- savvy?
22431You''re the Japanese marquis, are you?
22431You? 22431 ***** The Range and Grange Hustlers By FRANK GEE PATCHIN Have you any idea of the excitements, the glories of life on great ranches in the West? 22431 And Monsieur Dalny? 22431 And you, Surigny, may I take the liberty, without waiting to ask our Admiral''s leave, of inviting you to accept the hospitality of the flagship? 22431 And you?
22431Are you willing that I should?"
22431Barnes?"
22431But then why should I care which?
22431But where and how can the plotters have obtained the submarine craft itself?
22431But you believe me?
22431By the way, gentlemen, was either of you introduced to any young or charming woman ashore?"
22431By what means could these plotters sink a British ship, and yet make it appear to be the work of Americans?
22431CHAPTER XIX TRUTH, OR FRENCH ROMANCE"You know what is expected of you?"
22431Ca n''t you see greed sticking out all over these countenances?
22431Can it be that we bungled in some way with the Cushing business?"
22431Can you not manage to break the appointment without doing injustice to others?"
22431Can you tell us how Mr. Caine will be sure that he is talking with the right persons?"
22431Captain Allen, can you imagine any way in which such a thing might be effected?"
22431Cushing?"
22431Darrin?"
22431Dave, you''ll excuse me for a little while, wo n''t you?"
22431Did you know that, Monsieur?"
22431Do you believe all that I have just told you, my friend?"
22431Do you imagine I''d engage in a fight in a place like this?"
22431Do you realize what we''ll get?
22431Do you recognize the meaning of this?"
22431Do you want to work a trick yourself?"
22431Does the use of the knife terrify you?"
22431Ensigns Darrin and Dalzell, you noted, did you not, the nationality of the launch in which Mr. Cushing''s assailant escaped?"
22431How does the woodchuck, if he digs up from the bottom of the hole, ever manage to get to the bottom of the hole to make his start there?"
22431How soon do you wish to have this taxicab here?"
22431If you mean to kill me why do n''t you show courage enough to do it?
22431Is it likely that the plotters, if they be foiled, will suspect you?
22431Is it likely that they would seek your life as a forfeit?"
22431Is it permitted that I bring my friend over and present him?"
22431Might not something like the''Maine''affair be attempted here in Valetta Harbor?"
22431Monsieur le Comte, do you know anything more, of importance, that you have not already told me?"
22431Mr. Dalzell did not see them, did he?"
22431My friend, have you a few sous for a group of poor workingmen?"
22431Now, gentlemen, have you any questions to ask?"
22431Or, if they have n''t got it yet, how are they to obtain one?
22431Ripoli?
22431Runkle, how much money did the bravos take from you?"
22431Shall we go to- night?"
22431Should he follow on the course he had been taking, or should he shut off speed?
22431Then a steward, smiling and bowing, appeared and asked him in French:"Do you seek any one here?"
22431Then there was a quick step behind them, next a voice cried gaily:"My dear Monsieur Darrin, who could have expected to see you here?"
22431Vat you call wrong?"
22431Vat you mean?"
22431What do you mean, fellow?"
22431What do you say, Darrin?"
22431What does that fellow want?"
22431What is your pleasure in the matter?"
22431Where is Lieutenant Totten?"
22431Which would you see first?"
22431Which, I wonder?
22431Who are you, and what did you lose?"
22431Who will command the third, Captain?"
22431Why ca n''t all men fight in the open?"
22431Will you come on board with me?"
22431With lantern signals the Englishman asked:"Is the submarine supposed to be loose?"
22431Would it not be far better for Ensign Dalzell to go with him?"
22431Yet why should our death be desired?"
22431You have not breakfasted?"
22431You will now accept my hand?"
22431You will vouch for me, wo n''t you, Mr. Darrin?
22431begged Dalny, his evil face paling,"In exchange for your life, Monsieur Darrin, can you not offer us a chance for escape?"
17056Afraid?
17056Afraid?
17056After the whoppers you told that officer?
17056Again, what object could he have?
17056All finished here, Grant?
17056Am Ah correct, sah, in supposin''yo''Cap''n Jack Benson?
17056Am I sure?
17056And Truax?
17056And that applies equally to boys, sir?
17056And to play tricks in the engine room of either submarine?
17056And you even met Dave Pollard, and got him to take you on as a machinist for our boats?
17056And you thought it would not be hard to get the better of a boy like Jack Benson?
17056And you''re the captain?
17056And, afterwards?
17056Annapolis-- where they train the naval cadets, the midshipmen, into United States Naval officers? 17056 Anybody on the''Farnum''want to go ashore to- night?"
17056Anything wrong, sir?
17056Anything you want to be left alone here for?
17056Are n''t you going to report the robbery to the police?
17056Are n''t you going to take those two-- body snatchers?
17056Are they all right?
17056Are we at anchor-- now?
17056Are you going to get out of here, or shall I brain you?
17056Are you going to put that bar down, Truax?
17056Are you going to try to find that place, catch the mulatto and force the return of your money?
17056Are you the gunboat''Hudson?''
17056Benson,he begged, weakly,"will you give me your hand?"
17056But how about Truax?
17056But the day''s work--?
17056But what is the meaning of all this?
17056But what on earth made you do such a thing?
17056But why have you done all this?
17056But you noticed one thing, Doctor?
17056But, oh, will Pollard ever forgive himself when he hears all this?
17056By the way, did Dave tell you the name we are thinking of for the third boat, now on the stocks?
17056Can one of the marines fire a shot to stop those fellows?
17056Can you do it, now, sir?
17056Can you meet us with a pilot?
17056Captain Benson?
17056Come and join me?
17056Coming with us, Truax?
17056Confound it, why do n''t the people of this country run their government more than they do? 17056 Demonstration?
17056Did the Sidenham people know that Gaynor intended to use any such methods?
17056Did you ever hear of Tip Gaynor?
17056Did you leave him alone in here, at any time?
17056Did you think I only wanted to look at a pilot?
17056Do you consider yourself, sir, fully competent to handle this craft?
17056Do you consider, Mr. Benson, that you know all about submarine boats, sir?
17056Do you feel like a land- cruise with me, Hal?
17056Do you imagine, then, Mr. Benson, that some of the naval machinists have been careless or incompetent?
17056Do you know the specific gravity and the tensile strength of this brass?
17056Do you know what folks say about me?
17056Do you mean that my friends have been going into tough resorts on shore?
17056Do you mean we''re going to Annapolis, too?
17056Do you see this?
17056Do you think Eph has gone off on a cruise all alone?--that he has come to any harm?
17056Do you think he cared?
17056Do you think it would do any good for you to go below, Hal?
17056Do you think our engines are doing the topnotch of their best?
17056Do_ you_ know the difference between a Sunday- school text and petty larceny?
17056Doc, I-- I wonder-- if--"Well, Truax?
17056Doctor, am I-- am I--"Is there any little confession you would like to make? 17056 Doctor, can the young man be moved to his berth on the''Farnum''?"
17056Does n''t that part need loosening up a bit, sir?
17056Drop into the drug- store and have a cigar, then?
17056Elsie isn''t-- isn''t dead, is she?
17056Engines?
17056Finding it pretty dull, gentlemen?
17056For how long?
17056Give us time, wo n''t you, Captain?
17056Going with the rest of us, Truax?
17056Got an idea, Captain?
17056Got''em right?
17056Gracious-- you?
17056Had any trouble, so far, with strangers?
17056Have you anything to say, Mr. Benson, as to that condition, and how you came to be in it?
17056Have you broken down?
17056He did, eh?
17056How about that sleep, Jack?
17056How are you coming, aboard? 17056 How do you come to be living in a place like this, if I''m not too inquisitive?"
17056How do you feel? 17056 How long ago was that?"
17056How long have you been feeling out of sorts?
17056How on earth did you know what the signal was, Hastings?
17056How should I know?
17056How so?
17056How?
17056I am-- eh?
17056I suppose Mr. Farnum is n''t about?
17056I understand, sir,began Mr. Farnum,"that you attach some blame in this matter to young Benson?"
17056I went last night-- and some of the folks did n''t do a thing to me, did they?
17056I wo n''t?
17056I wonder if it would be against the regulations for a lot of rank outsiders like us to go through the grounds at this hour?
17056I wonder if the local fishermen start out at this time of the night?
17056I wonder if these cadets here ever have any real fun?
17056I wonder, though, if it would be in good taste for us to go prowling through the grounds at this hour?
17056I''d better run along, now, to pick''em up, sir, had n''t I?
17056I-- I wonder if Jack Benson would come to see me for a little while?
17056I-- I wonder if you can ever forgive me?
17056I?
17056In the air do you mean, sir?
17056In town?
17056Into town?
17056Is dinner ready, Greers?
17056Is it long enough time, sir, for a boy?
17056Is that one of the new submarine crafts?
17056Is there anything on your mind, my man?
17056Is this shipyard open nights?
17056Is-- is the''Farnum''here, too?
17056It looks that way, does n''t it?
17056It was a mighty cheeky--"Then why did you let the officer imagine you enjoyed it?
17056July of this year?
17056Just what rank does that_ young_ turkey- cock hold on board?
17056Liquor, eh?
17056Looks fearful bad, do n''t he?
17056Looks fearful, does n''t he?
17056Making port, Hal?
17056May I ask what is the trouble here, sir?
17056May I offer a suggestion?
17056May I offer a word, sir?
17056May I speak with your watch officer?
17056Meaning the life in the next world?
17056Mr. Benson, how long have you been engaged on submarine boats, sir?
17056Mr. Benson,cried Doctor McCrea, grasping Jack''s hand when the party had returned to the cabin,"I hope you are my friend?"
17056Mr. Mayhew demanded your story, of course?
17056Mr. Trahern, will it not be a good idea to have the midshipmen manage the deck wheel and engine room signals, each in turn, on the way out and back?
17056Naval crew aboard her?
17056No sailing orders yet, I suppose?
17056Now, what are those idiots jabbering about?
17056Now, what''s getting possession of your cranium?
17056Object? 17056 One of_ your own_ men?"
17056Rank outsiders?
17056Sailing these days without word from your captain, eh?
17056Say, Jack,demanded Eph,"do you ever give much thought to the future life?"
17056Say, what ails that man? 17056 Say, why did you take such a dislike to the fellow?"
17056See here,demanded Jack, after they had driven several blocks at a good speed,"Truax has n''t been getting into any drinking scrapes, has he?
17056See here,ordered Mr. Merriam, suddenly, taking Jack by the arm,"you''re a horse, a full blooded Arab steed-- understand?"
17056Shall Ah wait fo''yo''?
17056Shall I explain it to you, sir?
17056So Eph means to humor him by watching him, eh?
17056So Tip Gaynor hired you to do all you could to disgrace me in the eyes of the Navy people?
17056So that''s the way he''d work it, eh?
17056So, acting for Tip Gaynor, you undertook to ruin us all, and the good name of our boats?
17056So, to work a confession out of me, you''ve poisoned me?
17056Such as-- what?
17056That assault back in Dunhaven--?
17056That there were no signs of liquor about them? 17056 That''s not as bad as it might be, is it?"
17056The Sidenham Submarine Company?
17056The submarine?
17056The''Pollard''is on the other side of the gunboat, is n''t she?
17056The-- the-- what, sir?
17056Then I take it you have never, sir, seen the camelroorelephant?
17056Then what are you going to do about it?
17056Then what took place here, Mr. Benson, really took place at your request?
17056Then where do you expect to go, when the time comes?
17056Then why do n''t you bring him on board?
17056Then why was he so infernally stiff with the young men?
17056Then you took Truax to a voodoo doctor tonight?
17056Then you''ll let me come aboard, just for a look, wo n''t you?
17056Then, did n''t the cadet midshipmen offer to show us all about hazing pranks, and did n''t they do it?
17056There''s no smell of liquor, there, is there?
17056Truax ill? 17056 Truax, I wish to ask you if every word you have uttered is the solemn truth?"
17056Under way, eh? 17056 W''at am de matter wid yo'', w''ite trash?"
17056Want to do, sir?
17056Want to row me out and put me aboard the gunboat?
17056Was it you who knocked me out there, and sprinkled my clothes with whiskey?
17056What ails him?
17056What ails you, Truax? 17056 What appeared to be at the bottom of the trouble?"
17056What are they all talking about?
17056What are we going to do, Captain?
17056What are you talking about?
17056What chance do you think you stand against a crowd like this?
17056What did he say? 17056 What did he think?"
17056What do they do to the plebe?
17056What do they say?
17056What do we think, sir?
17056What do you fellows say to getting on shore and stretching our legs in a good walk?
17056What do you mean by taking the submarine without leave?
17056What do you mean?
17056What do you think it is?
17056What do you think the men in charge of that boat are, sir-- pirates?
17056What do you want to board us for?
17056What do you want? 17056 What does it mean?
17056What does this fooling mean? 17056 What earthly object can the fellow have had for wanting to damage your motors?"
17056What have I got? 17056 What have you been doing?"
17056What have you had against me?
17056What if we do n''t do it?
17056What is this material, sir?
17056What kind of people usually feed sea- faring men with what are generally known as knock- out drops?
17056What on earth has happened to the other submarine?
17056What on earth is the matter with me?
17056What sort of a looking fellow is Tip Gaynor?
17056What sort of fun?
17056What was that?
17056What was wrong?
17056What''ll we do to- night?
17056What''s been done to them?
17056What''s that?
17056What''s the good of that, anyway?
17056What''s the odor? 17056 What''s the use?"
17056What''s wrong, Andrews?
17056What''s your game?
17056What? 17056 What?"
17056When do you sail?
17056When your boots-- and the rest of you-- were so high up in the air over the blanket?
17056When?
17056When?
17056When?
17056Where did you read all that?
17056Where else do sailors usually get drugged?
17056Where''s Eph?
17056Where''s the pilot?
17056Where?
17056Who are you? 17056 Who could have hit me in that fashion, last night, and for what earthly purpose?"
17056Who does, sir?
17056Who said we had?
17056Who''s running this boat? 17056 Who?"
17056Why do n''t some of the champion swimmers of the class go overboard to Mr. Benson''s assistance?
17056Why do n''t you go on deck a while, Truax?
17056Why do n''t you go up on deck and get a few whiffs of fresh air?
17056Why have you made this confession?
17056Why the cadets, particularly?
17056Why, could you call it that, sir?
17056Why, have you done anything that I do n''t already know?
17056Why, how did you guess it all?
17056Why, what object could he have in that?
17056Why, your friend_ is_ drowsy, is n''t he?
17056Why-- what-- ails you?
17056Why?
17056Why?
17056Why?
17056Will Benson be fit to sail in the morning?
17056Will it be proper for us to go through the Academy grounds at this hour?
17056Will the lieutenant permit me to speak?
17056Will they beat us, though?
17056Will you do what I have suggested?
17056Will you instruct the sentries to see that none of the crew are allowed aboard during the night?
17056Will you send them quickly, sir?
17056Will your seamen cast loose from the moorings?
17056Wo n''t you please hand that to us in pieces?
17056Would you have told the truth, if he had questioned you searchingly, and pinned you right down?
17056Yet, what can you expect me to think, now that Benson has been in such scrapes three different times? 17056 You do n''t think I''m doing this just for fun, do you, sir?"
17056You fixed the trouble with the''Pollard''?
17056You have come to see the camelroorelephant, SIR?
17056You know, of course, sir, that noises sound with a good deal of exaggeration when you hear them under water?
17056You see the''Pollard''taking the wind out of our teeth, do n''t you?
17056You suspect your own machinist, who was aboard?
17056You think we''re in running order, now?
17056You were one of the victims of a hazing, were you not?
17056You wo n''t let me forget it, will you?
17056You''ll let me go aboard the craft to sleep for to- night, anyway?
17056You''re under the orders of the boss of that gunboat?
17056You''ve had treachery aboard, have you?
17056You''ve never been here before, have you, sir?
17056_ Did_ we enjoy it, though?
17056_ One_ of us?
17056A fever?"
17056Afraid?
17056And say, by the way, gentlemen, what if we take a little walk down to my beach?
17056And wrong you may have done that you''d like to set straight, my man?
17056Are we barred out of the instruction work?"
17056Benson never touched a drop of that vile stuff, did he?"
17056Benson?"
17056Benson?"
17056But at last another ventured to inquire:"How much of the time is gone?"
17056But do n''t you suppose, fellows, that officer was hazed, and did some hazing on his own account, when he was a cadet midshipman here years ago?
17056But how did you get on board in the first place?"
17056CHAPTER XVI BRAVING NOTHING BUT A SNEAK"You-- here?"
17056Caldwell?"
17056Can you take him off our hands, sir?"
17056Coming?"
17056Conclusion CHAPTER I THE PRIZE DETAIL"The United States Government does n''t appear very anxious to claim its property, does it, sir?"
17056Could such a job have been done, unless by sheer design and intent?"
17056Did he?
17056Do you consider that enough time, sir, in which to learn much about submarine boats?"
17056Do you find many yacht cabins more comfortable than this one?"
17056Do you forget that?"
17056Do you know, Sam Truax, I feel a queer notion coming over me?
17056Do you mind telling me, sir, in what way he erred in bringing you in here?"
17056Do you understand?
17056Do you want me to hit you?"
17056Do you want to foul our anchor chain?"
17056Explanation?"
17056Feel better?
17056Going into the town to- night, Jack?"
17056Has n''t been getting himself arrested, has he?"
17056Hastings?"
17056Hastings?"
17056Hastings?"
17056Hastings?"
17056How did he come to be in that fearful shape?
17056How does that happen?
17056I wonder if Jack and Hal are in it?
17056I wonder if anything can have happened to him?
17056I wonder if that fellow eats pie?
17056I wonder if they can be, to- day?"
17056I--""You, a guest of_ this_ house?"
17056If I could invent a cannon to- day that would give all the power on earth to the nation owning it, would the American Government buy it from me?
17056If I lock up everything tight on the boat until Sunday night, may we know that the''Farnum''will be under the protection of the marine guard?"
17056If you were in my place, Mr. Somers, would you be patient over young men who, when they get ashore, get into one unseemly scrape after another?
17056It was intended to make the whole Navy think the Pollard boat one that could n''t be depended upon?"
17056Just you and Eph?"
17056May I ask if you doubt my story?"
17056May I come on board?"
17056Mayhew?"
17056Merriam?"
17056Mr. Mayhew, wo n''t you and a couple of your officers come on shore with me?
17056Now, Eph, when we saw that first cadet come along, did n''t I suggest to you to ask him about hazing?"
17056Now, Mr. Somers, are you going back to the bay, sir?"
17056Or is his temper due to coffee?"
17056Out of the conning tower sprang Hal Hastings, looking eagerly in the direction in which Eph Somers pointed:"Eh?"
17056Pleasant, is n''t it?"
17056Presently, glancing ashore through the night, he asked:"What sort of country is it hereabouts?"
17056Say, Hal, would n''t it be fine if we really did belong to the Navy?"
17056Shall I make fast to your starboard side gangway?"
17056Shall I take you to it?"
17056So Captain Jack''s counter- query beamed out in colors through the night:"What''s your draught?"
17056Somers?"
17056Somers?"
17056Somers?"
17056Somers?"
17056Speaking of grog, would you care to try the best this town has, gentlemen?"
17056Surles?"
17056Terrell?"
17056The cool insolence of the fellow cut him to the marrow, yet where was the use of disobeying a rascal flanked by two such willing and capable dogs?
17056The messenger took the money eagerly, then demanded, more respectfully:"Any answer, sir?"
17056The officer of the deck sends his compliments, sir, and wants to know if Truax is to be pursued by men in a small boat?"
17056Then how would things look for the whole of us?"
17056Then it was all thoroughly goodnatured, all in the way of a joke, to show you something you wanted to know?"
17056Then, after a brief pause:"Good heavens, does Mr. Mayhew believe we''ve been acting disgracefully?
17056Then, by a slip of the tongue, and wholly innocent of any intentional offense, he bellowed:"Is that the''Dad''boat?"
17056There was a pause, then one of the older cadets turned to Jack to ask:"What volume of compressed air do you carry at your full capacity?"
17056Thoroughly clear- headed and steady?"
17056Trahern?"
17056Trahern?"
17056Were n''t we all three discussing hazing?"
17056What I wish to know from you, sir, is whether you''ll send another marine or two on board, so that I can back up my demand to find my friends?
17056What ails you?"
17056What are you about?"
17056What are you trying to do?"
17056What are you?"
17056What are your commands?"
17056What could have happened?
17056What has happened to him?"
17056What if Jack and Hal have been shanghaied on that infernal sloop?"
17056What in blazes does that mean?"
17056What object could anyone have in such a trick against you?
17056What on earth has happened?"
17056What on earth''s the matter?"
17056What were you doing down there, anyway?"
17056What''s the game, I wonder?
17056What''s the matter with his face?"
17056What''s wrong?"
17056What, indeed?
17056Where are you going?"
17056Who are the plebes, anyway?"
17056Who could have done that?
17056Who''s your captain?"
17056Why not let Eph help you back to your bunk, or one of the seats in the cabin, and have your sleep out?"
17056Will Mr. Benson go aboard the''Hudson''?"
17056Will that be satisfactory to you?"
17056Will yo''please to come, sah?"
17056Will you pardon my too hasty censure?"
17056Wo n''t you come?"
17056Wo n''t you please walk on the ether side of the road?
17056Would the dogs jump down?
17056Yet were they held so securely that he could not free one?
17056You''ll wait until morning, sir?"
17056You''ve seen that man on the street with us?
42940A fool-- a-- see here, is that all I get for saving you----"What did you haul me back for?
42940A service?
42940A ship?
42940All right, back there?
42940All? 42940 Aloft, there, what is it?"
42940And do you think they see us?
42940And yours?
42940Any danger of her coming our way?
42940Anybody got a rabbit''s foot in his pocket? 42940 Are any of our men in your place?"
42940Are the men to carry arms, sir?
42940Are they here yet?
42940Are you Monsieur Dan Davis?
42940Are you coming with me, Kuhn? 42940 Are you going to jump overboard?"
42940Are you injured?
42940Are you still hungry?
42940Are you sure?
42940Are-- are we to ride those things?'' 42940 Arrest?"
42940Both ladies were positive of the facts as I have stated them----"That the men were sailors?
42940But where will we go? 42940 But where-- where?
42940Ca n''t somebody come aloft to give Davis a hand when he reaches the foremast?
42940Ca n''t we take a look around your shack?
42940Can you beat it?
42940Can you blame him?
42940Can you work your way along the rope railing to where I am?
42940Come, lads; I take it you have no desire to remain here longer?
42940Could n''t, eh? 42940 Davis, is that you?"
42940Did they come back with you?
42940Did you hear about that, sir?
42940Did you hear it?
42940Do any harm?
42940Do n''t you know?
42940Do we walk?
42940Do you know what those fellows remind me of?
42940Do you know where we are going, sir?
42940Do you know why the ambassador wishes to see us?
42940Do you mean it washed a few other trifles overboard?
42940Do you really think some of those old kings are nosing around here?
42940Do you sing?
42940Do you want to kill yourself?
42940Do you wish me to report your conduct to the Prefect of Police?
42940Do you-- do you shoot the big guns?
42940Do-- do they announce the hours here by firing guns?
42940Do-- do you think we are going to the top?
42940Does n''t she look good?
42940Donkey, sir, donkey?
42940Eleven dollars?
42940English sailors?
42940Fellows, shall we pass the hat for the bazaar man?
42940For what?
42940For what?
42940Get tired of it?
42940Go with you?
42940Got any real food aboard? 42940 Got it?"
42940Guide, guide, guide, guide----"Say, why did n''t you fellows come around, last night?
42940Guide, guide, guide, sir-- guide? 42940 Guide, sir?
42940Guide, sir?
42940Had n''t you better take a couple of us with you?
42940Has authority been obtained from the local authorities, sir?
42940Has he gone crazy?
42940Have you any American sailors here?
42940Have you any idea where?
42940Have you found it?
42940Have you leave to be ashore?
42940Have you not noted anything that struck you as familiar about my wife and daughter?
42940He has?
42940Hear what? 42940 Hello, Sam, what''s the matter?"
42940Hello, what''s that on the table there?
42940How about the café where you pay?
42940How about the return tickets? 42940 How are we going to get aboard?"
42940How are you going to do it?
42940How did that happen?
42940How did you happen to fall over, Sam?
42940How did you happen to get into the difficulty?
42940How did you happen to get there?
42940How do you know?
42940How does it soar through the air that way?
42940How far is it to Boulogne?
42940How far is it?
42940How long have you been ashore?
42940How much do you charge for a ride?
42940How much do you charge?
42940How much does he say it amounts to?
42940How much have you there?
42940How much, did you have with you?
42940How so?
42940How so?
42940How was that?
42940How would you like to have all those guns turned on a ship in which you were?
42940How would you like to take a ride in it?
42940How''d we get here?
42940How?
42940How?
42940Hungry? 42940 I wonder how it works?"
42940I wonder how much we owe him?
42940I wonder if they are going to stop?
42940I wonder where we are?
42940I-- I----"Stung again?
42940If this be true, where are your uniforms?
42940In the brig? 42940 Injured?
42940Is Davis all right?
42940Is it not a glorious city?
42940Is it possible?
42940Is it possible?
42940Is n''t it wonderful?
42940Is n''t that enough? 42940 Is that you, Sam?"
42940Just like that?
42940Ladders?
42940Lads, do you know what lies beyond, almost within sight?
42940Like it? 42940 Lost your money?"
42940Made a discovery, eh?
42940Marksmanship? 42940 May I ask where you are taking us to, sir?"
42940May I ask, sir, why we are thus detained? 42940 Maybe we have gone on past it?"
42940Mr. Coates, are all our men accounted for?
42940Not going?
42940Not lost?
42940Oh, is that all?
42940Oh, why does n''t he grab the mast? 42940 Residence of both?"
42940Sailors, eh?
42940Sam Hickey, have you gone crazy?
42940Say, do you know what I''ll bet I could do?
42940Say, honest, Sam, what did you do to that donkey to make him cut up in that way?
42940See here, where''s that red- headed boy?
42940See that two- story building down there?
42940Shall I light a match?
42940Shall I sing for you?
42940Shall we see it?
42940Shall we take these fellows along with us?
42940Sir,spoke up Dan,"may I not ask why you are doing this-- what charge is made against us?"
42940Slid right into jail, did n''t we?
42940So that''s the game, is it?
42940So this is n''t the first time, eh?
42940So you rammed the waterspout, eh?
42940So you thought you would get away from me, did you, Anthony? 42940 So, you did n''t sing after all?"
42940Spain, did he say?
42940Stand up before you?
42940That would match your hair, would n''t it, red- head?
42940That you, Dynamite?
42940The Shepherd''s Crook, or something of that sort?
42940The Straits of Gibraltar?
42940The caps?
42940The next question is, where are we going to sleep?
42940The upper berth?
42940The what?
42940Then you think those pleasant gentlemen were those who got your money?
42940There, Tommy Atkins, will you be good now?
42940They do n''t?
42940They do?
42940They were sailors?
42940Thought you were going to fight?
42940Two thousand years? 42940 Want a donkey, sir?"
42940Was-- was it the boys?
42940We are seeing things for sure, are n''t we, eh?
42940We paid, did n''t we?
42940We were walking along Sausage Avenue, peaceable like----"What''s that?
42940We-- we fell down, did n''t we?
42940Well, if it was n''t lost, will you tell me where it is? 42940 Well, lads, what do you propose to do now?"
42940Well, sir, what have you to say for yourself?
42940Well, what about it?
42940Well?
42940Were you ever there, Padre?
42940Wha-- wha-- how much is that-- how many cents is that in plain United States? 42940 What are they saying?"
42940What are those things in the basket there?
42940What are you doing here?
42940What are you doing in Paris?
42940What are you going to do with us?
42940What are you going to do?
42940What are you going to do?
42940What are you looking for?
42940What are you talking about?
42940What do they call this place, Dan?
42940What do they do with them?
42940What do you mean, sir?
42940What do you mean?
42940What do you mean?
42940What do you think of that, Coates?
42940What do you want?
42940What does this mean?
42940What for?
42940What for?
42940What have I forgotten?
42940What is it?
42940What is it?
42940What is it?
42940What is it?
42940What is it?
42940What is that, sir?
42940What is the King''s name?
42940What is the captain''s name?
42940What is this place you''re stowing me in?
42940What is this that I hear about you lads trying to rob a couple of women?
42940What is your name?
42940What is your name?
42940What land is it?
42940What station is this?
42940What would happen if the thing should hit us?
42940What''s going on here?
42940What''s going on there?
42940What''s that thing on top of it, Dan? 42940 What''s that?"
42940What''s that?
42940What''s the matter with our following the passageway back to the King''s Chamber?
42940What''s the matter with you?
42940What''s the matter, Sam?
42940What''s the odds? 42940 What''s this, what''s this?"
42940What''s wrong?
42940What, again?
42940What, camels?
42940What?
42940What?
42940When did the ship arrive?
42940When was that?
42940When?
42940Where are the ladders?
42940Where are we heading, matey?
42940Where are we?
42940Where are you going?
42940Where are you?
42940Where away? 42940 Where away?"
42940Where away?
42940Where away?
42940Where do we stay?
42940Where is it-- where is it?
42940Where is the man now?
42940Where is the quartermaster who was at the wheel?
42940Where is the rest of your gang?
42940Where is the spout?
42940Where is your ship?
42940Where to?
42940Where was that?
42940Where we are?
42940Where''s that confounded waterspout?
42940Where''s the ships?
42940Where, may I ask?
42940Where, where? 42940 Where, where?"
42940Where?
42940Where?
42940Who are they?
42940Who are you?
42940Who are you?
42940Who did that?
42940Who is down there?
42940Who is the man aloft there?
42940Who went into that room there?
42940Who will volunteer to do the work outside?
42940Who''s a donkey?
42940Why did n''t you come when I called you?
42940Why did you assault the gendarmes?
42940Why not?
42940Why not?
42940Why say you that, Monsieur le Prefect?
42940Why so?
42940Why?
42940Will you be good enough to communicate with the ship, sir?
42940Will you be good enough to summon the young men here?
42940Will you release the men?
42940Wo n''t they be surprised?
42940Yes, sir; did I not tell you about that?
42940Yes, what is it?
42940Yes; is that the way you bolt into a gentleman''s bedroom without knocking?
42940You ai n''t going in there, are you, shipmate?
42940You are English?
42940You are sure you have none of our men here?
42940You did not stay your leave out?
42940You did that?
42940You do not mean that you have been robbed?
42940You from the''Long Island''?
42940You have your orders?
42940You mean how much did I have left?
42940You mean that I lie?
42940You mean the lookout station up there?
42940You mean?
42940You say you are from a United States ship?
42940You say you are from the''Long Island?''
42940You steered us out?
42940You were n''t at the wheel before we were struck?
42940You what?
42940You''ve got five hundred what- do- you- call- thems, have n''t you?
42940You-- you do n''t mean you''ve lost your money?
42940And did you sing?"
42940Approaching the proprietor, he said:"Do you speak English?"
42940Are you in a chill also?"
42940Are you ready?"
42940Better take the chance of bumping our heads----""Say, Dan, where are you going?"
42940But about losing your money?"
42940But did you really assault some of the French police?"
42940But have you lost them?"
42940But how did it occur?"
42940But they are the real thing, are n''t they?"
42940But you have not told me why you cut your leave short?"
42940But, Dan, do n''t you think that rock is a pretty good mark itself?"
42940By the way, where are you boys living?"
42940CHAPTER XI BETWEEN SKY AND SEA"You got them all, did you?"
42940Ca n''t we steal some spoons to get even?"
42940Ca n''t you understand that much English?"
42940Can you not guess why you have been invited here this evening?"
42940Coates?"
42940Did you ever watch the sparks at night?"
42940Did you have any trouble?"
42940Did you hear that, Sam?"
42940Do n''t you, Dan?"
42940Do we make port anywhere along here?"
42940Do we, now?"
42940Do you know how it occurred?"
42940Do you know how much five hundred centimes is?"
42940Do you know the women who had such a narrow escape last evening, may I ask, señor?"
42940Do you know them?
42940Do you see the''Long Island''lying out there in the harbor?"
42940Do you think I am going to let you mix us up in any more trouble?
42940Do you understand?"
42940Do you want me to call them in?"
42940Enough for all of us?"
42940Good gracious, is n''t that enough?
42940Guide, is there any one in here except our party?"
42940Has the matter been brought to your attention, may I ask?"
42940Have a guide?
42940Have you a change of clothing with you?"
42940Have you forgotten?
42940Have you lost those, too?"
42940Have you not made a mistake?
42940Have you seen any of our fellows?"
42940Have you seen any of our men in this quarter within the last hour or two?"
42940How about you, Hickey?
42940How are they going to get you when you are in China?
42940How did you happen to fall?"
42940How many donkeys have you?
42940I hope you like Paris?
42940I presume you are somewhat curious as to why I invited you to my home this evening?"
42940I saved your life, did n''t I?"
42940I take it, this is your first visit here?"
42940I trust you have suffered no ill effects from your unjust imprisonment?"
42940I wonder how long the red- coats are going to leave us here?"
42940I wonder what is going on?"
42940I wonder what the captain of the''Long Island''will say when he hears of it?"
42940I wonder what''s up now?"
42940I wonder where they are?"
42940I wonder whether we are going through the straits?"
42940I, a sailor in Uncle Sam''s Navy, and afraid of robbers?
42940Is that all, sir?"
42940May I inquire your interest in this matter?"
42940Maybe you think I do n''t dare?"
42940Monsieur le Prefect, I presume there is no objection to these young men accompanying me from this place at once, is there?"
42940Now, lads, explain how you got into the ship?
42940Of course you have ambitions to rise in your profession?"
42940On whose part, may I ask?"
42940Proprietor, what other rooms have you in this establishment?"
42940Say, Dan, do you know what they hit me with?"
42940Say, it''s lucky they locked us up in the brig over at police headquarters, is n''t it?"
42940Shall I be able to put a letter ashore?"
42940Shall I send Davis to you?"
42940Show you all about the city, young gentlemen?"
42940That would be a nice thing, would n''t it?
42940That you, Dan?"
42940That''s going some, is n''t it, Sam?"
42940There''d be an explosion, eh?"
42940Understand?"
42940Understand?"
42940Want any help?"
42940We had been dining with the Spanish ambassador----""Dining with the Spanish ambassador?"
42940We will tell the police the truth and they will have to let us go; but the question is, when are we going to be allowed to tell the truth?
42940What I want to know is who they are?"
42940What are you going to do about it?"
42940What are you going to do?"
42940What are you talking about?"
42940What do they ever name their streets that way for in Paris?"
42940What do you say to our turning the tables on them?
42940What do you think about it, Sam?"
42940What do you think of that?"
42940What do you think of that?"
42940What happened to you?"
42940What have you done?"
42940What in the world are you trying to do?"
42940What is it?"
42940What is your business, if you have any?"
42940What is your rating, if I may ask?"
42940What ships are those?"
42940What time is it?"
42940What will it be, Dynamite?"
42940What''s a consul for, if it is n''t to help a fellow- countryman who is in trouble?"
42940What''s that?"
42940What''s the idea?"
42940What''s the matter with you, red- head?"
42940What, what?"
42940Where are we?"
42940Where are you?"
42940Where could we have lost our money?"
42940Where does that door lead to?"
42940Why did n''t we look at the sign over the place before we went in?"
42940Why does n''t he?"
42940Why not?"
42940Why should we go with you?"
42940Why?"
42940Will the thing hold you?"
42940Will you be ready soon?"
42940Will you tell me that?"
42940Will-- will you tell Captain Farnham that we are all right?"
42940Wo n''t he make these chattering Frenchmen stand around lively?
42940Wo n''t he raise a row?
42940Would n''t that send the blood coursing through your veins?"
42940Would you like to be there, Sam?"
42940You are sure there are no robbers left in the Bologna sausage?"
42940You do n''t mean it?"
42940You have no idea where I shall find the men, sir?"
42940You never heard of my losing any, did you?"
42940You wo n''t tell if I confide something to you?"
32886A marline spike?
32886All of it?
32886All right; what you are telling her?
32886All sticks standing?
32886Am I right, sir?
32886Am I to go in?
32886Am I to read what you have written?
32886And had you gotten away, at that time, you would not have returned to the ship, eh?
32886And you signaled them of their danger?
32886Anything further, sir?
32886Are the boats returning, signalman?
32886Are they all right?
32886Are you Seaman Davis?
32886Are you a witness?
32886Are you able to go on? 32886 Are you able to use the flag?"
32886Are you going to have the bottom examined?
32886Are you studying-- I mean in books?
32886But supposing the compass were wrong?
32886But why are they doing that terrible thing?
32886But you do n''t dare tell me that, hey?
32886But you have not been stationed at one of the guns?
32886Can you see the dinghy?
32886Coates, that was pretty well done, eh?
32886Could the shoal water not be seen from the bridge of the ship, do you think?
32886Da-- Da-- I-- I am to be coxswain to- morrow?
32886Davis, I hear you have had an accident?
32886Davis, are you on watch to- night?
32886Davis, do you think you could learn to sight a gun?
32886Davis, what are you doing here?
32886Davis, will you be good enough to give me the countersign?
32886Davis, will you take the stroke- oar seat?
32886Did I not order you to the sick bay?
32886Did either man attempt to do more than defend himself?
32886Did either man say anything?
32886Did something hit me? 32886 Did you fall in?"
32886Did you get them all?
32886Did you see the way that man Hickey, handled the signal flag, Coates?
32886Did you try to stop them?
32886Did you volunteer to testify before this court?
32886Do n''t we know where we are?
32886Do n''t you know how to salute, my man?
32886Do n''t you see that he is barely able to stand on his feet? 32886 Do n''t you see them signaling to you out there?"
32886Do they know where it is?
32886Do you know of any shoal in here, Lieutenant Douglas?
32886Do you make out the other boat?
32886Do you mean that you want to give your two hundred dollars to mother?
32886Do you recall how it appeared when you took hold of it?
32886Do you see any tompion in that gun?
32886Do you think you are running this boat?
32886Do you want the divers over, sir?
32886Do you wish the divers to go down now?
32886Do? 32886 Does it hurt?"
32886Each man pulls one oar, of course?
32886Ensign, who is responsible for the condition of that boat?
32886Everything secure above there?
32886Fell off where?
32886For what?
32886From books?
32886Got something better?
32886Had we not best stop the engines now, sir?
32886Has your friend also a desire to learn to shoot?
32886Have n''t you learned what that is yet?
32886Have these men ever been up on charges before?
32886Have you any enemies on board?
32886Have you had any difficulty with any of the men?
32886He invited us to call on him, did n''t he?
32886Hit her hard, sir?
32886How are you getting along with your work on the seven- inch?
32886How are you heading?
32886How did they do it? 32886 How did you discover our danger from where you were?"
32886How did you get there?
32886How do you know?
32886How fast a stroke do you wish me to hit?
32886How fast, sir?
32886How fast?
32886How is your head, Davis?
32886How is your wound?
32886How long a course do you cover?
32886How long have you been in the service, did you say?
32886How many men do you have in the boat?
32886How many men shall we try out?
32886How many men?
32886How many persons have you on board?
32886How many signalmen will that leave us for our work?
32886How much does a house cost in that neck- o''-the- woods?
32886How much water have you?
32886How would you lads like to try out for the crew?
32886How''s that, Hickey?
32886How''s the motor boat?
32886How''s your lead?
32886How?
32886Hurt you?
32886I get tattooed-- is that what you mean?
32886I sha n''t know when we reach there, anyway, so what''s the odds how far it is? 32886 I thought you were ordered to the sick bay?"
32886I wonder if I could do it?
32886I wonder what he''s getting at?
32886I wonder what we are going to do up here?
32886I''ll tell you what, Coates, I believe we had better break her up, do n''t you?
32886I-- I am to race the crew?
32886If you were not deserting, why did you make such a murderous assault on Seaman Davis?
32886In the garret? 32886 Is not that young seaman, Dan Davis, handy with the flags?"
32886Is she all right?
32886Is she backing?
32886Is she going astern any?
32886Is she going astern yet?
32886Is she holding, Coates?
32886Is she making any headway astern?
32886Is signalman there?
32886Is that a command, sir?
32886Is that right, Davis?
32886Is that so?
32886Is that you, Hickey?
32886Is this the place you signaled about, Davis?
32886Is this true?
32886Let him? 32886 Makes a good seat, eh?"
32886Man, what do you mean? 32886 May I ask a favor, sir?"
32886May I ask what you are seeking to accomplish?
32886May I ask who the man is who will act as coxswain of the racing gig in to- morrow''s race, sir?
32886Midshipman Carter?
32886Motor boat or steamer?
32886Mr. Coates, will you pass the word to the men by megaphone?
32886Mr. Navigator, have you got this shoal down on your chart now?
32886Now what do you think of that, sir?
32886Now what is that boy Davis up to, I should like to know?
32886Now, sir?
32886Oh, here you are, eh?
32886Oh, that''s it, is it? 32886 On account of Joe Harper?"
32886On fire-- where?
32886On what?
32886On whose orders?
32886Ordering you to appear at mast court, eh?
32886Out here on the ocean?
32886Please, man, wo n''t you save Tommy?
32886Pretty heavy for racing, is n''t she?
32886Rather be at this end than the other, would n''t you?
32886Sam, is that you making all that noise?
32886Say, Dynamite,said a companion,"where did you get the game ear?"
32886Say, Hickey, speaking of hash marks, have you got any on you yet?
32886Score?
32886Seaman Davis got hurt, eh?
32886Seaman Davis on that schooner?
32886Seaman Davis, then, is the witness who knows the whole story?
32886Shall I hit her up?
32886Shall we assign the men?
32886Shall we give her another round, sir?
32886Shall we hail Seaman Davis, and order him back to ship?
32886Shooting star again, three points----"What''s that?
32886Signalman-- where''s that signalman?
32886So that''s the game, is it?
32886So that''s your game, is it? 32886 So you are the Tom I came down here to rescue, are you?
32886Somebody gave you a pig''s foot, for luck, eh? 32886 Sure?
32886That you, Tom?
32886The plug, you mean?
32886The race? 32886 The schooner, sir?"
32886The spike was thrown from behind you then?
32886Then it seems to be our solemn duty to take the job into our own hands, does it not, mates?
32886Then what are they wig- wagging for?
32886Tommy?
32886Tried to kill you?
32886Twenty- five dollars''worth, eh? 32886 Up here?
32886Use a knife or anything of that sort?
32886Want to know very much?
32886Was anyone except yourself on deck at the time?
32886Was he not one of the signalmen who did such fine work when we were laying mines, the time Bill Kester was rescued by this same boy?
32886We join the racing crew?
32886Well, lad, what is it?
32886Well, lads, do you never rest?
32886Well, what do you think of that?
32886Well, what else?
32886Well, what is your score?
32886Well, where are we, Mr. Smarty, if you know so much?
32886What about it?
32886What are they doing?
32886What are we going to do in the pond?
32886What are you doing down there?
32886What are you talking about?
32886What did it look like?
32886What did you do with my letter?
32886What did you do with that tompion after you polished it?
32886What do I say?
32886What do they want?
32886What do you make her out?
32886What do you make it?
32886What do you make of her?
32886What do you mean?
32886What do you take me for-- a sea- cook?
32886What do you think this is-- a pink tea?
32886What do you wish me to do with them, sir?
32886What does Seaman Hickey wish to say to me?
32886What does he say?
32886What does this farce mean, sir?
32886What for?
32886What for?
32886What for?
32886What happened to you?
32886What is it?
32886What is it?
32886What is it?
32886What is it?
32886What is the boat when compared to a human life?
32886What is the countersign, sir?
32886What kind of a tattoo would you suggest?
32886What kind of drill?
32886What kind, then?
32886What luck?
32886What range?
32886What shall I do now?
32886What ship is that?
32886What was it?
32886What were they?
32886What would I have done? 32886 What would you do?"
32886What you going to do with the money?
32886What''s all that racket?
32886What''s all this row about, anyway? 32886 What''s dotter practice?"
32886What''s that? 32886 What''s that?"
32886What''s that?
32886What''s that?
32886What''s that?
32886What''s that?
32886What''s that?
32886What''s the matter with you?
32886What''s the matter-- what''s the matter?
32886What''s the trouble, Sam?
32886What''s this, what''s this?
32886What''s this?
32886What, in your opinion, prevented our fire from sinking the schooner?
32886What, you the officer of the deck and not know the countersign? 32886 What-- what do you mean, you-- you lubber?"
32886What-- what----"Who goes there?
32886What? 32886 Where are you?"
32886Where away?
32886Where away?
32886Where away?
32886Where away?
32886Where do you get your books?
32886Where from?
32886Where is he?
32886Where is he?
32886Where were you, Hickey?
32886Where will you be-- here on the bridge?
32886Where would you have run to?
32886Where, I asked you?
32886Which way were you facing?
32886Who are you?
32886Who did it?
32886Who has charge of the race? 32886 Who is responsible for this?"
32886Who is the man?
32886Who''s drowning?
32886Whom do you race with?
32886Why did you let him do that, Sam?
32886Why did you not notify the ship at once of your discovery?
32886Why do you do that; to make it smoother?
32886Why not?
32886Why, what''s the matter?
32886Why?
32886Will it be possible for my friend, Seaman Hickey, to have a place in that gun squad?
32886Will that save my twenty- five?
32886Wo n''t you, Dynamite?
32886Would you like to be? 32886 Writing a book?"
32886Y- e- s."Where is it?
32886Yes, have you seen him?
32886You all right?
32886You are interested in guns?
32886You are sure it wo n''t hurt?
32886You are sure you put the tompion in the gun?
32886You are to be released at ten o''clock, then?
32886You can think of nothing else that will aid us in getting at the facts in this case?
32886You could, eh?
32886You did n''t?
32886You did not hear them say anything that would lead you to believe that they were deserting?
32886You discovered the shoal spot on your way out to the range to- day, did you not?
32886You discovered them going over the side of the ship, did you not?
32886You do n''t mean it?
32886You do n''t mean it?
32886You do not have sliding seats?
32886You have no idea who threw the spike?
32886You lubber, what did you do that for?
32886You never heard me do so, did you?
32886You ordered them to let no one pass unless he had the countersign?
32886You saw me put that tompion in the muzzle of the gun there, did n''t you?
32886You saw that the ship was headed directly for the shoal?
32886You say the lad went after them?
32886You think it is a wreck, sir?
32886You understand how to work it?
32886You were on the anchor watch on the evening of the twenty- fifth of August, were you not?
32886You were standing outside the seven- inch port when I came out on deck a while ago, were n''t you?
32886You were the last man to handle the plug, were you not?
32886Your pig''s foot?
32886Are they seriously hurt?"
32886Because I''m a red- head you wo n''t salute me?
32886Brant?"
32886But how about that house and lot?"
32886But what about your own life?
32886But what''s all this ruction for?"
32886But you shall be rescued, just the same, Mr. Thomas-- Mr. Thomas, what''s your other name?"
32886By the way, where''s the spike?"
32886Can you make out the torpedo, Coates?"
32886Coates, will you be good enough to tell the ship''s writer to enter Seaman Davis as a member of the starboard seven- inch crew?"
32886Coates?"
32886Coates?"
32886Davis, these are your men, are they not?"
32886Did n''t you know Dan and myself were members of the racing crew now?"
32886Did you hit the target?"
32886Do you know anything about that branch?"
32886Do you know anything of navigation?"
32886Do you know what those things are worth?"
32886Do you surrender?"
32886Do you think I did it on purpose?"
32886Do you think I did that for fun?
32886Do you want to make a finish?"
32886Harper?"
32886Have I your instructions to order him to go ahead with the instruction?"
32886Have you got the ranges marked on the chart also?"
32886Have you ordered any one after him?"
32886Have you watched the men who might possibly have been implicated in this?"
32886Hello, Tom, is that your name?"
32886How about those other men?
32886How did you get that wound?"
32886How long are you to be on duty?"
32886How''s the tide?"
32886I could n''t possibly be mistaken about a thing like that, could I?"
32886I presume you wish to send the most expert signalmen to the admiral?"
32886I trust you are not suffering greatly from the wound?"
32886I wonder if they have discovered my absence on board the battleship?"
32886I wonder what became of the other boat?
32886I wonder what gun they are doing it with?
32886I wonder what it means?
32886If I have to be a few moments late in reporting for hammocks, will you excuse me?"
32886If I''d been looking around I would n''t have fallen on my back, would I?"
32886Is it a pond?"
32886Is there any word you would like to send to the folks at Piedmont?"
32886Is there no other way out of it?
32886It is n''t likely that I would tear half my ear off, just for the fun of the thing, is it?"
32886It''s up on the upper deck, starboard side, is n''t it?"
32886Knowing of the shoal place, you kept watch of us?"
32886May I ask your advice, sir?"
32886May I take the tiller?"
32886Need any help?"
32886Not want them?
32886Officer of the deck?"
32886Ordnance Officer?"
32886Say, did you hear about my pig''s foot?"
32886Seaman Hickey, do we get it straight that you defy the rules of our profession by refusing to wear the badge of that profession?"
32886Shall I do it?"
32886Shall I fire again?"
32886That would be tough, would n''t it, matey?"
32886Then we will have the race after all?"
32886Think you want to take that chance?"
32886Were you ever in a race?"
32886What are you doing down there, you lazy lubbers?
32886What are you trying to do-- drill a hole all the way through my foot?
32886What are you writing to her?"
32886What do you hope to do with yourself?"
32886What do you mean?"
32886What do you say?"
32886What is it?"
32886What is the countersign, Carter?"
32886What oars are you going to pull?"
32886What would you have done then?"
32886What''s going on over there?"
32886What''s that?"
32886Where did you reckon you wanted the marks put?"
32886Where is Seaman Davis?"
32886Where''s Dan?"
32886Who could have done such a dastardly thing?
32886Who did that?"
32886Who is teaching you?"
32886Who is the anchor watch?"
32886Who is the captain of the crew?"
32886Who started this thing, anyway?"
32886Why did you not notify the ship?
32886Why do you ask?"
32886Why not?"
32886Why should n''t I give your mother my money?
32886Will you tell me, sir, what to do to enter such a class?"
32886Wo n''t they be surprised to see me, though?
32886Would you boys like to come up and look over the boat?"
32886Would you prefer to be a member of a gun crew?"
32886You do not see her, do you?"
32886You gave no thought to that, did you?"
32886You had reasons for not doing so, eh?"
32886You have no suspicions?"
32886You have seen our racing gig, have you not, boys?"
32886You kids on the crew?
32886You never did that of your own accord, did you?"
32886You say you caught only the flash-- you did not get a sight of the rocket itself?"
32886You will come below for the books as I suggested, will you not?"
32886You will fire the starboard torpedo next, will you not?"
32886You would n''t have a pig''s foot anywhere else, would you?"
