Tom and Astro followed the blond cadet through the darkened passages of the dead ship, and after digging a small pile of sand away from the control-deck hatch, found themselves once more amid the jumble of the wrecked instruments. For the first time in three days, the boys saw sunlight streaking through the crystal port. "I told you," cried Astro triumphantly.

The bay of Gibraltar, with the houses of the town of Algeciras, are distinctly visible; so, too, is the southern range of the Ronda mountains, the purple Mediterranean, with the immense jumble of Afric's sparkling shores, the Atlas mountains, the Neutral ground, and the Spanish lines. These are some of the objects which never tire the eye.

And through the jumble of my thoughts darted the sudden knowledge that there was a sea-fog outside a thing quite different from the nightly mists of the bay. It was rolling into the passage inexplicably, for no stir of air reached us. It was possible to watch its endless drift by the glow of the fire on the point, now much nearer us. Its edges seemed to melt away in the flight of the water-dust.

Adhering to the commentator's explanation, they add their own interpretation which is different. This sort of jumble is very peculiar. Linga means signs or indications. A Lingin is one that bears signs and indications. The first, that is, Lingin implies either a Brahmacharin or a Sanyasin that always bears the marks of his order. An Alingin is one that is divested of such marks.

"Mother's beginning to shake her head, and you mustn't let her, Billie. She'll do anything for you." Mrs. Jordon laughed and made room for Billie on the divan beside her. "Now perhaps you'll tell me," she said, "what this crazy daughter of mine is talking about. So far I've got a sort of confused jumble of a haunted house and vacations and Mrs. Gilligan.

They went ashore on the banks of the little river and began to clamber over a terrific jumble of rocks. A salmon was caught so quickly that Father grew boyish with enthusiasm and capered over more rocks. And then came the accident, Aunt Jennie, and I am still shaky, and tearful, and though I try to write like a normal human being I am desirous of shrieking.

Mother was up to her elbows in the golden dough of the cakebread, stirring and beating and patting the jumble of eggs and flour and milk. Horieneke took the crying baby out of the cradle, shaking and tossing it in the air, and went into the garden just outside the door. The golden afternoon sun lay all around and everything was radiant with translucid green.

The gentleman's doctrines would give us a strange jumble of authorities and powers, instead of governments of separate and defined powers. It is the part of wisdom, I think, to avoid this; and to keep the general government and the State government each in its proper sphere, avoiding as carefully as possible every kind of interference.

I saw scrawled across it an indecipherable jumble of words. She had expressed it exactly it seemed as though some one had been trying to write with a weight clogging his hand. And there was something about this scrap of paper something convincing and authentic which struck heavily at my skepticism. Here was what a lawyer would call evidence. "It kept on from day to day," continued Mrs.

"They were sure to have some strong point we couldn't locate." "Yes," grumbled the general; "in such a jumble of foliage and rocks it would take an eagle's eye to pick out all their miserable ambuscades." "I have no doubt, sir, the men are rested now," ventured the other. "No doubt they are," chuckled the general, still studying the situation, glancing to the right and the left of the redoubt.
