Some very decent people have taken him up, I believe. He's worth meeting, so I'm told, as a curiosity. I've seen only two or three of his paintings, but they're really not bad. Some of the fellows at the club were talking about him the other night. I think you'd enjoy the exhibition, Miss Dott." "I'm sure I should. I should like to see the pictures and the er gink as well.
They walked rapidly toward the alley-way where Murphy had recognized "Gink" Cummings when he met the man they suspected was Gibson. Spring street was beginning to become deserted for the night. Little groups of men and women from the theaters waited at the corners for street cars. A peanut and candy peddler pushed his cart wearily along the street, close to the curb, plodding his way home.
But somehow I finds it sort of entertainin'. Besides, he seems like such a good-natured, well meanin' gink that I lets him run on, clear to 42d-st. "Well, so long," says I. "I get out here." "To leave me among the Ishmaelites!" says he. "And I've two useless hours to dispose of. Let me go a way with you?"
The second "gink" was a big flabby-looking "duck," and when he had descended quietly the detective had no difficulty in finding out that the man was registered at the hotel as John Harrington. "Rives!" breathed Phil in suppressed excitement. McCorquodale nodded. By good fortune President Wade had just returned to the city and to him the detective at once reported the full circumstances.
In some of the interviews Kedzie gave opinions she had never held on themes she had never heard of. When she read that her favorite poet was Rabindranath Tagore she wondered who that "gink" was. When she read that she owed her figure to certain strenuous flexion exercises she decided that they might be worth trying some day.
He was panting, too, and the sound of blows reached the ears of the listening boys. "Get in there!" The words were spoken in English, but not by Hans. "There's that gink who rounded us up back in Taku," exclaimed Jack. "He seems to be winning all the tricks. I wonder how he got hold of Hans?" "I thought Dutchy was back with the submarine," Frank replied.
Then each of those who were arrested and who were 'in on the know, as you say, were given the $10 they put up for bail and $10 extra for being on hand to be arrested. Is that it?" "Dat's it." "And you figure that the 'Gink' wanted Gibson's raid to be a success because the 'Gink' has split with the bookmakers and wants to make trouble for them?" "Dat's da way I dope it," Murphy assented.
As he entered the local room of the newspaper office P. Q. stopped work to rush toward him and Brennan, looking up from his typewriter, emitted a "rousing" cheer. All that day the giant presses roared, turning out thousands upon thousands of the newspapers with the story stripping the mask off Gibson and revealing the nefarious plot between him and "Gink" Cummings.
"And now I'll have a chance to tell you a lot more about what we elephants did in the jungle," said Umboo, when, once more, all the animal friends were in the tent together. "That is I'll tell you more, if you aren't tired of hearing it," he added. "Tired? I should say not!" chattered Gink. "Go on, Umboo, if you please. Tell us a lot more!"
A further outburst of the French language from Mr. Crump, supplemented on the part of the "old gink" by gesticulations, interrupted the proceedings. "What's he saying now?" asked Mr. Scobell. "He wants to know " "Don't tell. Let me guess. He wants to know what sort of a rake-off he and the other somnambulists will get the darned old pirate! Is that it?" Mr. Crump said that that was just it.
