"Yes," said Dick; "there was a friend of mine, Johnny Mullen, he was a newsboy, got run over by a omnibus as he was crossin' Broadway down near Park Place. He was carried to the Hospital, and me and some of his friends paid his board while he was there. It was only three dollars a week, which was very cheap, considerin' all the care they took of him.
"Well, considerin' you're boss o' this station, an' my bit o' filthy lucre comes out o' your pocket, I got great pleasure informin' you I met ole Gladstone, comin' to tell us the same yarn. Anything else you want to know?" "Did you hear which crew won the regatta?" asked Moriarty, almost civilly. "Sydney," replied the prince. "Think you Port Phillipers could lick us?"
An' 'pears to me right dar, dat if I wusn't a chu'ch member, I shed be led on ter say dat, considerin' what a skaseness er good cooks dar is, seems like de good Lawd's almost wasteful an' stravagant, de way he lets 'em die off.
I suppose you don't know what has become of the old woman?" "Well, considerin' that I'm her daughter Elizabeth" she lengthened the name with an implied reproof "I reckon I ought to know." The Emigrant's hand sought and crushed the big packet of sweets well into his pocket. He flushed scarlet. At the same time he could hardly keep back a smile at his absurd mistake.
I ha'e been considerin' for a while," he went on, speaking quickly, "about puttin' a stop to this collectin' business at the office on pay Saturdays, for it just encourages some men to lie off work when there's no' very muckle wrong wi' them; after they get the collection they soon start work again. Ye had better no' stand the morn, for I might as well begin at once and put a stop to it."
"Huh!" gurgled Perk, stretching his neck so as to see better through the narrow opening that served them as a lookout, "some toney, strikes me, considerin' the desolate country round-about this section. Must be his high-hat tastes foller him, no matter where he goes sorter dude, I'd call him, partner."
They're awful cheap and handy. You just pour in hot water and there's more'n enough for a meal. Good-by." Imogene, when she returned from the Fair, announced that she had had a perfectly lovely time. "He ain't such bad company Kenelm, I mean," she observed. "He talks a lot, but you don't have to listen unless you want to; and he enjoys himself real well, considerin' how little practice he's had."
Mebbe, mebbe I'm testy. An' then thar's thet boy!" With a shrug of his broad shoulders he dismissed what seemed an encroachment of pessimistic thought. "Wade, you're packin' off, then, on the trail? Always on the go, eh?" "No, I'm not hurryin' off," replied Wade. "Wal, might I ask what you're figgerin' on?" "Sure. I'm considerin' a cattle deal with Moore.
"Man," hurries in the first, "a' see him stannin' at his desk in the mornin' watchin' the laddies comin' in ower the top o' his spectacles, an' juist considerin' wha wud be the better o' a bit thrashin' that day." Sall, they were fearsome."
I knew he had the wind of me and I could never make the brush, so I pulled my little lunch out of my pocket and dropped it on the fly. "Never looked back till I hit the timber, and then he was mouthing the biscuits in a way which wasn't nice to see, considerin' how close he'd been to me. I never slacked up. No, sir! Jest kept hittin' the trail for all there was in me.
