Boys turned to look at one another aghast, and the grins on their faces assumed a sickly yellow hue. Word had been brought to the anxious Hugh that Alan Tyree would be utterly unable to be on the field that day, not to speak of pitching.

"Hey! black boys!" said the captain, in a dialect of his own; "you sabe, catchy boat and vamos back same place quick." They saw him point to themselves, the sloop and Coralio. "Yas, yas!" they cried, with broader grins and many nods. The four Don Sabas, the two officers and the captain moved to quit the sloop.

I put my hawse's belly to the ground an' we've gone 'bout two mile, when young McElroy comes chargin' up behind a-yellin' for me to stop." 'What's the matter? I asks, pullin' 'round an' facin' 'im. 'You've got a blame good hawse, Jess, he grins, 'I thought I couldn't ketch you!! Then he comes up clost an' says: "That message come wrong! 'How d'you know? I asks.

"Anything wrong?" says he to East, nodding at Tom. "Not a bit." "Not beat at all?" "Bless you, no! heaps of fight in him. Ain't there, Tom?" Tom looks at Brooke and grins. "How's he?" nodding at Williams. "So, so; rather done, I think, since his last fall. He won't stand above two more." "Time's up!" the boys rise again and face one another.

I'm watchin' like a lynx; an' I'm that harrowed, if Yuba so much as sneezes or drops his hat or makes a r'arward move of his hand, I'm doo to open on him. But he stands still as a hill an' nothin' more menacin' than grins. As I comes clost he offers his hand.

It is a low, mysterious loft, against the door of which is stuck, as a thing no longer wanted, a very old, pious image Kwanon with the thousand arms, and Kwanon with the horses' head, seated among clouds and flames, both horrible to behold with their spectral grins. We open the door, and Chrysantheme starts back uttering a fearful cry.

About the second time the collector drops in to collect on a set of works of literatoor, a man feels like he had been foolish, but he grins cheerful, and pays up, but if another man drops in about then to sell another set of the world's great masterpieces it is pretty near an insult to human intelligence."
