And your run was almost as good, Joe," he added, to Davis. "I don't care if I did lose," panted Davis. "Both of us beat Ben Hurdy hollow, and that's all I wanted to do." "Oh, there's no moss growing on Moss," cried Tom, and this brought out another laugh.
Having succeeded by all manner of petty chicanery in capturing the governorship, I am surprised that he isn't seeking the job of Jehovah. Displacing Mills with Culberson were much like substituting a Chinese joss for the Apollo Belvedere or an itch bacillus for a bull-elephant. I really cannot consent that the little fellow be sent to Washington lest some hurdy gurdy man should swipe him.
Ben Hurdy followed Rockley, and a moment later Pender and Jackson did the same. Then Flapp came staggering down the stairs, holding his nose, from which the blood was flowing freely. "Let's get back to the Hall as quickly as we can," he said to the others. "And if we are examined, we can deny everything." "All right," said Pender. "But what did you do to Rover?"
He might meet her citizens, buck her faro-banks, drink her nose- paint, shake a hilarious hoof in her hurdy gurdies, ask for his letters, or change in whatever sums seems meet to him at the New York Store for shirts.
Canvas covered, dirt floored, except for the dancing platform, rough red-wood bar and tables; surrounded by all the sordidness of Hurdy Gurdy town in which fortunes, and reputations, and lives were bid, and shuffled, and lost, as indiscriminately as grains of dust blown into the ever-changing sea. The thirst for gold is universal.
"I didn't wish to come at all, but Ben Hurdy urged it," continued Harry Moss. "And Pender said it would do no harm," added Joe Davis. "He said we were going to have nothing but sandwiches, root beer, and soda." "Look here, Davis, you keep your mouth shut!" cried Pender. "You knew exactly what to expect. You know Mike Sherry don't run a temperance hotel," he continued, with a sneer.
He was small in size and Dick put him down as being Ben Hurdy. "I want you to untie my hands." "Very well, let the prisoner hold the glass," said Flapp. "Thank you, Flapp." "Who said I was Flapp?" growled the tall boy, in dismay. "I say so." "My name is Brown." "All right then, Brown let it be," said Dick, not wanting to anger the bully too much.
Doman received, at Red Dog, a letter with the simple postmark, "Hurdy, Cal.," and being occupied with another matter, carelessly thrust it into a chink of his cabin for future perusal. Some two years later it was accidentally dislodged and he read it. It ran as follows: HURDY, June 6. FRIEND JEFF: I've hit her hard in the boneyard. She's blind and lousy.
As this sharp says: Who gives Hamilton any license to go fillin' his hurdy- gurdy full of dance-music? S'pose this gent would come caperin' over an' set in a stack ag'in Hamilton for overloadin' his joint with pianer an' fiddle noises without his consent; an' puttin' it up he's out to drag the camp if Hamilton don't cease?
"And so does Rockley know how to pull," continued Hurdy. "And what is more, he knows a trick or two that will pull your fellows over the line in no time." "I don't believe it, Hurdy." "Want to bet?" "No, I don't bet. Just the same, I think Rockley's crowd will lose." Although Sam would not bet, some of the other students did, so that by the time the match was to come off quite a sum was up.
