That was a new thought to the Hopi and we left him staring over the desert, evidently pondering. I hope I didn't plant the seed that will lead to a desert warfare! I watched with fascinated eyes the antics of round, brown babies playing on the three-story housetops. I expected every instant that one would come tumbling off, but nobody else seemed to worry about them.
Lyman Abbott preaching the dedicatory sermon and General Samuel C. Armstrong delivering an address, which was among his last public utterances. This is a handsome three-story building, with recitation-rooms and laboratories in the first two stories, and sleeping-rooms for teachers and boys in the third story.
"You know I just love Irishmen," remarked Billie with emphasis, as they started on their way once more. In thoughtful silence, they walked the remaining three blocks to the boarding house where Miss Beggs lived. "This is it," said Billie, as she came to a stop before a three-story brick building that had all the respectable and uncomfortable appearance of a typical boarding house.
The morning was bright and very warm, scarcely a cloud in the sky, but there was a feeling of storm in the air, the earth was restless. As we neared Stafford dark clouds were gathering in the far distant skies, but not yet near enough to cause apprehension. Driving slowly into the village, we again visited the three-story stone house.
The broad, three-story front of the Iturbide Hotel is quite imposing, and exhibits some very elaborate native carving in stone. We were told that it was once occupied by a very rich and eccentric mine owner for the accommodation of himself and family, embracing half a dozen wives and over sixty children! quite after the style of a Turkish harem or the establishment of a Utah magnate.
We had enrolled the group before a son of wisdom among them surmised that we were not, after all, plain-clothes men in quest of criminals; and his announcement brought visible relief. Twice as many blacks were sprawled in the two rows of double-sided, three-story bunks, mere strips of canvas on gas-pipes that could be hung up like swinging shelves when not in use.
She remembered the time when the billiard-room chairs were quite the most noted possessions in the basement and three-story brick house on West Adams Street. She had followed the chairs in the course of the Hitchcock evolution until her aunt had insisted on her being sent east to the Beaumanor Park School.
The house which had elicited Quigg's last sagacious remark, was a three-story brownstone front, and was one of the finest looking on the south side. The heavy mahogany door was opened by a slovenly girl, who ushered the callers into the front parlor, which was carefully darkened, according to the custom of the day.
"Too high too much climbing" from Higbie. "What is?" "I was thinking of Russian Hill building a house up there." "Too much climbing? Shan't you keep a carriage?" "Of course. I forgot that." Pause. "Cal., what kind of a house are you going to build?" "I was thinking about that. Three-story and an attic." "But what kind?" "Well, I don't hardly know. Brick, I suppose." "Brick bosh." "Why?
She is quite happy here, but she will be very glad to return to New York to those who have been so kind to her." "Really," thought Jack, "I don't know what to make of this Mrs. Hardwick. She talks fair enough, though looks are against her. Perhaps I have misjudged her." Jack and his guide paused in front of a large three-story brick building. The woman rang the bell.
