Operating through invisible channels and by a method which neither Banneker nor Edmonds ever succeeded in fathoming, his influence now began to be felt for the better tone of the news columns. They became less glaringly sensational. Yet the quality of the news upon which the paper specialized was the same; it was the handling which was insensibly altered.
"It means, sir," reported Tom, wheeling about, "that this fellow, Montez, threatened us with death if we did not sign a glaringly false report concerning El Sombrero Mine. We were also to be killed if we did not stand by our report to the fullest degree after you and your friends arrived." "Then El Sombrero Mine is worthless?" cried Mr. Haynes, his face turning a ghastly white.
"Yes." "It's queer. It's good, too. There's a streak of what was good left in everything, it seems to me. I'm going to talk to her." "Don't do it. She'll throw the plate in your face." "No, she won't." And he rose and went over to the table of the beldame and sat down beside her. She looked up at him glaringly.
He had refused the permission to sit down. "What happened at this preliminary examination is only known from the presiding officer. Pursuing the only possible course in that glaringly bad case he tried from the first to bring to the Prince's mind the line of defence he wished him to take.

He went on, glaringly hostile, projecting his words at her as if she was a target and they were missiles: "My mother liked the name. She thought it was unusual. It was she who gave it to me." Chrystie's lips opened on a comment, also on laughter.
Also, the man glaringly destitute of integrity or capacity, but noticed as having a bullet-head, a square jaw, countersunk eyes, and the rest in proportion, is suspected of having the other kind of force in reserve; and we know how he escapes anything like wanton personal indignity in his intercourse with gentle or simple.
De Loutherbourg were led astray by the mountebank, though they did not wander so far from the paths of reason and right, nor publish so glaringly the fact of their betrayal into error.
