"Howly do, broder?" was the salutation of the Sioux, whose dusky face showed just the faintest smile. Red Feather's descent of the chimney had not been without some disagreeable features. His blanket and garments, never very tidy, were covered with soot, enough of which had got on his face to suggest that he had adopted the usual means of his people to show they were on the war-path.
"Hooray, me boy!" shouted Tim, "an' it's the thrue word ye've shpoke, an' niver a lie in the skin av it. Oireland foriver! Be the howly St. Patrick an' all the saints, I am wid ye an' agin ivery government that's iver robbed an honest man. Go on, me boy, tell us yer tale." Timothy was undoubtedly excited.
There's a man fer ye, an' there's none to measure wid him in the mountains!" "Dr. Bailey, I suppose ye're talkin' about?" inquired Ben, with fine scorn. "Yis, Dr. Bailey, an' that's the first two letters av his name. An' whin ye find a man to stand forninst him, by the howly poker! I'll ate him alive, an' so I will." "Well, I hain't agoin' to say, Mr.
An' if it was that Swede janitor next door made the complaint on us I'll " "Woman!" breaks in the Lieutenant. "Don't you know that you have been apprehended in a grave offense? You'd best tell all. Now, who put you up to this? Your master, eh?" "Howly saints! Mr. Bauer!" groans the fat one. "For the love of the saints, don't tell him!" says Maggie. "Don't tell Mr. Bauer, there's a dear.
The Irishman, as the engineer translated, crossed himself. "Howly Mither, fwhat a name!" Jefferson Worth spoke. "Drive on, Texas." And so, with the yellow dust-devils dancing along their road and that yellow cloud in the distance, they moved down the slope down into The King's Basin into La Palma de la Mano de Dios, The Hollow of God's Hand. "Is that true, sir?" asked Abe of the Seer.
The Chief paused for breath, and Willard Holmes, whose experience with large corporations was expected to make him peculiarly valuable to the capitalists who sent him out, turned away with what dignity he could command. "Howly Mither!" came a hoarse whisper from Pat to Abe; "I made sure the poor bhoy wud shrivel up.
I then took the pants down to the office, and let the Doctor into the secret. The next Saturday the Irishman came rushing down stairs in great excitement, and reported the loss of his pants. I said: "Well, Irish, if you don't find them, I'll go with you to pick out another pair." "But, be the Howly Moses! will yez pay for thim?" I told him I'd see that he paid for them.
Begobs, b'ys, it's proud av him we should be this day. Didn't he swear strong an' fine like? Howly hivens! it's a delight to hear damn said like that." For some reason that "swear-word" pleased New York and the country generally, showing that even an oath has its purpose in this world, so long as it is properly used. Dean Swift said a lie "was too good to be lavished about." So it is of profanity.

In a few minutes the woman returned, and, drawing a small flask out of the folds of her rebozo, handed it to Chane. The Irishman commenced undoing the string that carried his "relics." "Which ov them de yez want, misthress? the saint, or the Howly Mother, or both? it's all the same to Murtagh."

For an instant he stood like one transfixed, and then exclaimed, in that peculiar English which he spoke, "Howly Moses! but this bates the worruld!" and then stood staring at each of them.
