Oh, yes, that is a good way to do up the so-called bosses, but have you ever thought what would become of the country if the bosses were put out of business, and their places were taken by a lot of cart-tail orators and college graduates? It would mean chaos. It would be just like takin' a lot of dry-goods clerks and settin' them to run express trains on the New York Central Railroad.
In this carn what thou lovest best shall be buried by thy side; the bard shall raise his song over thy grave, and the bosses of shields shall be placed at intervals, as rises and falls the sound of song. Over the grave of two shall a new mound arise, and we will bid the mound speak to others in the fair days to come.
"Nobody will bother us, I guess," grimaced Tom. "Most people here probably think that, because we're engineers, we run locomotives. That's what the word 'engineer' suggests to ignoramuses. Now, the man who runs a locomotive should properly be called an engine-tender, or engineman, while it's the fellow who surveys and bosses the building of a railroad that is the engineer.
So much to this one, so much to that, so much to half a dozen others, and we get the contract. Otherwise, most emphatically nit." "That comes straight, does it?" "As straight as a shot out of a gun. They got together on it, eight of the big bosses, called me in and told me flat-footed what we had to do," said the salesman. "Oh, I tell you, those fellows are on to their job."
They found the mules coming up, and the bosses promising that in a short while the men would be coming. Everything was all right there was not a bit of danger! But Mary was afraid to trust Hal, in spite of his promise, so she lured him back to Number One. They found that a rescue-car had just arrived from Pedro, bringing doctors and nurses, also several "helmets."
Were the men in Number Two really in danger? Could it be possible that the bosses would take such a chance in cold blood? And right at this moment, with the disaster in the other mine before their eyes! He could not believe it; and meantime Mary, at his side, was declaring that the men were in no real danger it was only Alec Stone's brutal words that had set her crazy.
It was actually running the lathe themselves according to the new method and under the most positive and definite orders that produced the effect. The writer himself ran the lathe and instructed the first few bosses. It required from three weeks to two months for each man.
Then he plunged, red-faced and excited, into the circle about the shell manipulators, and offered, to lay a wager. "Hol' on there, Hen Fentriss," thickly objected a flushed young man beside him, "iss my turn." "I'm first. Hartley," returned the other. "You can hold yer bosses a minute, I reckon." "Plenty fer each and all, chents," interrupted one of the shell-men.
Whose is this beautiful scimitar of sable blade covered with golden bosses, capable of cutting through the bodies of adversaries, whose touch is as fatal as that of a venomous snake which is irresistible and exciteth the terror of foes? Asked by me, O Vrihannala, do thou answer me truly. Great is my wonder at the sight of all these excellent objects."
The simple bosses of the base under "Dawn and Evening" are still unfinished: that would go to prove that Michael Angelo had designed them and seen them cut as far as they go—not necessarily that he had seen them in position—and that the academicians, when they did their best to complete the chapel, rightly decided to leave them as they were.
