But Joe caught Brick before he could attain his end, and together they rolled over and over in the dirt, locked in each other's arms. By the time Fred and Charley and the gang had come up, they were on their feet, facing each other. "Wot d' ye want, eh?" the red-headed gang-leader was saying in a bullying tone. "Wot d' ye want? That 's wot I wanter know." "I want my kites," Joe answered.

Cooperation with the Bar Association, the Taxpayers' Association, and other similar organizations evidenced a desire of reform from without. Kelly "bossed" the Hall until his death, June 1, 1886. He was succeeded by Richard Croker, a machinist, prizefighter, and gang-leader.

The scandal became so widespread that the conservative Spanish papers demanded the apprehension and punishment of the gang-leader, Juan Rull, who was subsequently condemned to death and executed. The sensational evidence, brought to light during the trial, forced Police Inspector Momento to exonerate completely the Anarchists from any connection with the acts committed during a long period.

"Hurry, White, and notify the Coroner, for I don't intend to allow Terence Maguire to lie in this rotten den very long." Burke ran along the wet street, looking vainly for the wounded gang-leader. Jimmie was not in sight! Burke went the entire length of the block, and then slowly retraced his steps. He scrutinized every hallway and cellar entrance. At last his vigilance was rewarded.

"Don't make any noise," he said. "I want you to listen to me." "Oh, it 's you, is it?" Simpson replied, with such obvious relief in his voice as to make them feel relieved also. "Wot d' ye want here?" "We want to get out of here," Joe said, "and the shortest way 's the best. There 's three of us, and you 're only one " "That 's all right, that 's all right," the gang-leader interrupted.

Happening to fall in love with a dancer in a Bowery cabaret, Reggie puts family and fortune behind him and takes a job as "bouncer" so as to be near his lady-love. Aside from his regular duties, he is required to work overtime on account of the hatred of a gang-leader who also loves the girl.

"Well, a section, I guess, if it comes to that. Parker, or whoever fixed this thing up, would go to the main boss of the gang. If it was the Three Points, he'd go to Spider Reilly. And so on." "And what then?" "And then the boss would talk it over with his own special partners. Every gang-leader has about a dozen of them. A sort of Inner Circle. They'd fix it up among themselves.

Joe uttered an inarticulate cry of rage, and, all caution flung to the winds, sprang at his assailant. This was evidently a surprise to the gang-leader, who expected least of all to be attacked in his own territory. He retreated backward, still clutching the kites, and divided between desire to fight and desire to retain his capture.

Tobacco, ill food, and unhealthy living were telling on the gang-leader, who was panting and sobbing for breath. Growing desperate, he adopted what might be called not an unfair but a mean method of attack: he would manoeuver, leap in and strike swiftly, and then, ducking forward, fall to the ground at Joe's feet.

Do you mean the gang-leader?" "Sure. He's a cousin of mine," said Master Maloney with pride. "Is he?" said Billy. "Nice sort of fellow to have in the family. So you think that's his cat?" "Sure. He's got twenty-t'ree of dem, and dey all has dose collars." "Are you on speaking terms with the gentleman?" "Huh?" "Do you know Bat Jarvis to speak to?" "Sure. He's me cousin."
