Veil, I ton't care annahow. I vill drow der hammer ven ve haf some more of dem kondests," and then Hans dropped to the rear. Rockley was the next to jump, and his record was an inch better than that already made. "That's all right," said Lew Flapp. Two other pupils now took their turns in jumping and Rockley's record was speedily eclipsed. Then Dick came along and sent the record still higher.
When one of my hands is whistling I always know he is pitchin' in." The way lay over a hill and around a bend where a number of apple trees lined the road. The apples were within easy reach, and soon each was chewing on the juicy fruit to his heart's content. "Wonder where Flapp and his crowd went," came presently from Tom.
A boy who works around the stables told me Flapp had been there and was very angry because he had been sent away from the academy. The boy said Flapp vowed he was going to get square with the Rovers for what they had done." "What boy was that?" asked Josiah Cotton, with interest. The boy was described and, a little later, he was brought over from the hotel.
"I don't care," retorted Lew Flapp, "I ought to be elected major, and that is all there is to it." When Dick was approached he had but little to say. "I didn't expect to stand so high," he declared. "I don't know that I care to be made major. If I get to be a captain or a first lieutenant I shall be well content. You know I was a second lieutenant once."
Nellie came to a sudden stop and pointed to the houseboat. "Dan Baxter," burst from Dora's lips. "Oh, how did that fellow get here?" "Dora Stanhope!" muttered Baxter, and then he and Lew Flapp ran towards the girls. Both girls were thoroughly alarmed by the unexpected appearance of Dan Baxter and his companion and brought their horses to a standstill.
"I'm not lecturing you," came hastily from Dan Baxter. "I'm merely telling you things for your own good, Flapp. I want you to pull with me. I know we'll get along swimmingly." "You said you'd let me have some money." "And I'll keep my word." "I need at least fifty dollars." "You'll need more than that, Flapp.
"It's not unlikely, Sam." "Shall we tell Captain Putnam of this?" Tom shook his head. "No, let us tell Dick, though, and a few of the others. Then we can keep our eyes peeled for Lew Flapp and, if he actually does wrong, expose him." A little later Tom and Sam interviewed Dick on the subject, and then they told Larry Colby, Fred Garrison, George Granbury, and half a dozen others.
Link Smith was about ready to cry. "Lew Flapp." The captain drew a long breath. "How did you come to let him in? You knew he had been dismissed from the school." "He begged me to let him in, saying he merely wanted to speak to two of his old friends.
At first the young cadet did not dare to tell the truth, but finally he blurted out that he had taken a glass of liquor against his will and it had turned his stomach in a most painful manner. "Where did you get the liquor?" demanded Captain Putnam sternly. "I I oh, must I tell you, sir?" "Yes, Harry." "I that is, Lew Flapp Oh, sir, I don't want to be a tattle-tale."
"Rover, you are talking in riddles." "No, I'm not; I'm telling the strict truth." "Bah!" Lew Flapp shoved forward. "Let me pass." "Not just yet." Sam placed himself in front of the barber shop door. "What's the row?" put in the barber, who happened to be the only other person in the shop. "This fellow is a thief, Mr. Gregg." "You don't say!" cried Lemuel Gregg. "Who did he rob?"
