All this, though alluring, failed of its purpose; the small boy continued to weep, and his weeping was ear-splitting. "Be still, Dorman, or you'll certainly scare all the coyotes to death." "Where are dey?" "Oh, all around. You keep watch, hon, and maybe you'll see one put the tip of his nose over a hill." "What hill?" Dorman skipped a sob, and scoured his eyes industriously with both fists.
Before Dorman had given the alarm, an old woman, Mrs. McKenney, went from the fort to milk her cow in a neighboring barn. As she was returning, with her full milk-pail, a naked Indian was seen to spring from a clump of bushes, plunge a long knife into her back, and dart away without stopping to take the gray scalp of his victim.
A different but equally efficient type of Vee design was the Dorman engine, of which an end elevation is shown; this developed 80 brake horse-power at a speed of 1,300 revolutions per minute, with a cylinder bore of 5 inches; each cylinder was made in cast-iron in one piece with the combustion chamber, the barrel only being water-jacketed.
"You ask if I ever remember meeting one Lavinia Dorman.
"I want some chicken, auntie." "There is no chicken, dear," said the prim one. "You must be a patient little man." "I won't. I'm hungry. Mens aren't patient when dey're hungry." A small, red face rose, like a tiny harvest moon, between the broad, masculine backs on the front seat. "Dorman, sit down! Redmond!"
Besides, her mother had just finished talking to her for her good, which was enough to send an angel into the sulks and Beatrice lacked a good deal of being an angel. Dorman laid his baking-powder can confidingly in his divinity's lap. "Be'trice, I did get some grasshoppers; you said I couldn't.
"An Injin! Yes, an out-and-out Cherokee. You see he calls himself Dorman Low Dorman. That's only French for 'Sleeping Water, his Injin name! 'Low Dorman." "You mean 'L'Eau Dormante," said Nellie. "That's what I said. The chief called him 'Sleeping Water' when he was a boy, and one of them French Canadian trappers translated it into French when he brought him to California to school.
Positions constitute the cohesive force that holds the organization intact. The second of the human elements, the reform group, was led by such men as George William Curtis, Dorman B. Eaton and Carl Schurz, with the support of periodicals like Harper's Weekly and The Nation. The career and character of Curtis is typical at once of the strength and the weakness of the group.
"Look at the pretty " She hesitated, groping vaguely for some object to which she might conscientiously apply the adjective. "Mud," suggested Beatrice promptly "Look at the wheels, Dorman; they're playing patty-cake. See, now they say, 'Roll 'em, and roll 'em, and now, 'Toss in the oven to bake! And now " "Auntie, I want to get out an' play patty-cake, like de wheels. I want to awf'lly!"
In summing it up that night the reporters would tell in highly wrought fashion of the moving appeal made by Senator Dorman, and then they would speak dispassionately of the logical argument of the leader of the opposition. There was more satisfaction to self in logic than in mere eloquence. He was even a little proud of his unpopularity. It seemed sacrificial.
