At sight of Griffith a half-hundred voices roared out a rough but hearty welcome that caused Blake's face to lighten with a flush of pleasure. The greeting ended in a cheer, started by one of the Irish foremen. Griffith sniffed at the foul, smoke-reeking air, and looked doubtfully at Blake. He held up his hand.

I ventured one night, after Kahn had arranged for the uncovering of the grave. It was now two days since Kennedy had gone up to East Point to superintend the exhumation and had returned to the city with the materials which had caused him to keep later hours in the laboratory than I had ever known even the indefatigable Craig to spend on a stretch before. He shook his head doubtfully.

"I don't know," answered Harry, doubtfully. "I'm seeking my fortune, as they say." "Well you ought to find it," returned the other, after a deliberate survey of his young companion. "You're well-built, and look healthy and strong. Have you got any money?" "A little. My father died lately and left me three hundred dollars.

"Suppose we ride. The air is too sharp to lie about under the trees. This white horse mates your gown. Let us go over to Carmelo." "I should like to go," she said, doubtfully; he had made her throb with indignation once or twice, but his conversation interested her and her free spirit approved of a ride over the hills unattended by dueña. "But you know I do not like you."

"'S up to you, Recky." Rex looked at his frowning cousin doubtfully, pleadingly. "It almost seems as if it was, doesn't it, Carty?" he said. "We can't leave them like this." "I don't see why we can't I can," Reed asserted. "It's none of our business, Rex, and we really haven't time to palaver. Come along." The gentle soul of Rex Fairfax was surprisingly firm.

"But I but we have no quarrel with them, and it needs the red rage of great pain ere we tear down the places where men sleep," said Hathi doubtfully. "Are ye the only eaters of grass in the Jungle?

"There will be no killing?

"I do not know," I answered, whereon Bes groaned, only Karema smiled a little as though to herself. "Then, having heard, obey," said the holy Tanofir, whereon the four veiled ones bowed again. "Will you not give them their orders, O most Venerable?" inquired Bes doubtfully. "I think it is needless," said Tanofir in a dry voice. "Why try to teach those who know?"

Marie had been walking up and down the room, but he halted to face her "do you know, I have a very strong feeling that if one could find this man O'Hara, one would learn something about what became of your brother? I have no reason for thinking that, but I feel it." "Oh," said the girl, doubtfully, "I hardly think that could be so. What motive could the man have for harming my brother?"

Everything was landed; the boat itself was hoisted on to the rocks; the voyage was over. "Think ye know yer way, Capm?" queried Glover, squinting doubtfully up the arid recesses of the smaller cañon. "Of course I may be mistaken. But even if it is not Diamond Creek, it will take us in our direction. We have made westing enough to have the Cactus Pass very nearly south of us."

Denison," she began, and then, doubtfully, "That is your name? I'm very stupid " "It is," said Mr. Hoopdriver. Denison, Denison, Denison. "I wonder how far you are willing to help me?" Confoundedly hard to answer a question like that on the spur of the moment, without steering wildly. "You may rely " said Mr. Hoopdriver, recovering from a violent wabble.
