The book-editor next came in, obtaining a clutch upon the brute by the ears; the musical critic followed and seized the tail with both hands, and a number of reporters, armed with inkstands and sharpened pencils, came next, followed by a dozen policemen with brandished clubs; at the same time, the engineer in the basement received the preconcerted signal and got ready his hose, wherewith to pour boiling hot water upon the heads of, those in the streets, in case it should prove a regular systematized attack by gorillas, Brazil apes, and chimpanzees.
The enemy glanced upward and blinked his red eyes in surprise; then he stared in deep chagrin, then glared with rage.

What Sankey was not capable of in the train-service we never knew, because he rose superior to every emergency that ever confronted him. Bucking snow is principally brute force; there is very little coaxing.
