It was about an hour after that we heard a voice cry down to us: "Cheer up, boys, all's well." There, overhead, was the Mad Major in his plane. Elusive as was the elusive Pimpernel, he flitted back of the lines to the plane-base. "Who is he?" We crowded round the English Tommies when all was quiet. "The Mad Major, Canuck," they answered. "The Mad Major." "Yes, but "
"That's why you weren't allowed to be with Montgomery," she remarked. "I heard Corinne talking about it." "Oh, that Canuck! I hate her," said Cora, speaking thus disrespectfully about the West Side captain. "Well, if any of us was in her place, I reckon we'd be strict, too.
"I'm not doing much killing; but, faith, I'm warming 'em up a bit," he said, as he halted to cool his rifle. "It's keeping the ball a-rolling, and them busy. Else, belike they'd find Satan filling the idle hands of them with bad deeds. Little Canuck dear, this is hot work for a boy." Weldon nodded.
After a moment of surprise, tinged with excited determination, he found himself, with his brilliant partner, the centre of attraction. "Look! oh, do look at the little Canuck!" cried a classmate. "I never saw any one dance as she does" it was Doctor Travers who spoke from the doorway beside Mrs. Thomas "but once before. It's quite primeval, an instinct.
I'm a good enough Yank to see if your dinky police is such an all-fired cute little bunch of wonder-workers as you say! Bub you think you're going to get Mr. Greenfield don't you?" "I'm not thinking, Bucky " "Eh?" "I'm simply sticking to you." "Sticking to me!" cried Greenfield with a roar of disgust. "Why, you unimaginative, lumbering, beef-eating Canuck, you can't get me that way!
At that moment there was a rapid clanging of the gong; the motorman let fly the whirling rod; the over full cars started with a jerk there was a howl, a shout, followed by a struggle to keep the equilibrium; an undersized Canuck was seen to be running madly alongside with one hand on the guard and endeavoring to get a foothold; he was hauled up unceremoniously by a dozen hands.
"You and your men were sent here to keep things peaceable," he concluded, "and I reckon when a man is too tough for the Canuck police he is tough enough for you to tackle. There ain't a lock and key in the camp, and we ain't had a killing or a stealing in ten years. We'd like to keep it that way."
The big Canuck saw him coming and knew what his visit portended so he wasn't taken unawares. It was a case of fight for his job and Rondeau fought." "The devil you say!" "I do and there was the devil to pay. It was a rough and tumble and no grips barred just the kind of fight Rondeau likes. Nevertheless old Duncan floored him.
The Canuck floundered up and rushed like a furious bull. His downfall was only the swifter. The impact of the two bodies sounded like hands clapped together, and then Goliath rose into the air, struggling mightily, and pitched with a thud to the mat. He writhed there, for the wind was knocked from his body by the fall. At length he struggled to a sitting posture and glared up at the conqueror.
Man is permitted to make such errors but once in his life, without having Providence get after him and slay him. Little Canuck?" "Paddy?" "The top of the ant-hill is white with heat, and the lambie must enter the roasting tomb. Will you and Mr. Carew eat with me?" "We've no intention of eating anywhere else, Paddy. We know your cooking of old." "It's an honor you'll be doing me, then.
