By this time some of the others had also gathered there. "It's a big machine all right," murmured Innis. "And there are three aviators in her," added Paul. "Can you make out who they are, Dick?" asked Larry Dexter. "No, they have on protecting helmets and goggles," replied the young millionaire, as he adjusted the binoculars to his vision. "But I'm sure I know that machine!" "Whose is it?"
Vardon, "but if we do, I think we can weather it." "How does the gyroscope stabilizer work?" asked Paul, who with Innis, had made Dick's house his home while the airship was being built. "It does better than I expected," replied the inventor. "I was a bit doubtful, on account of having to make it so much larger than my first model, whether or not it would operate.
"You'll look as good as we do." "What about my hands?" asked Dick. "Think I want to go up and sit alongside of a girl with paws like these?" and he held out one that was black and oily. "Haven't you any soap aboard?" asked Innis, for he, like Paul, seemed anxious that Dick should land them at the dock where the girls were.
The man who knocked came from Tresedder, one of the moor farms. "Oh, sir! did 'ee see the rockets go up over Innis? There'll be dead men down 'pon the Island rocks." Taffy slept on. When he came downstairs next morning there was a stranger in the kitchen a little old man, huddled in a blanket before the great fireplace, where a line of clothes hung drying.
Vardon in helping on the completion of the Abaris. "We've got to get a move on!" Dick had said, after he had sent in his application to compete for the twenty thousand dollar government prize. "We don't want to be held back at the last minute. Boys, we've got to work on this airship ourselves." "We're with you!" cried Innis and Paul, eagerly. And so, after some preliminary instructions from Mr.
I've got a room down to the village, an' I've borreyed a razor. I'm goin' to tramp round the mines at the back here, an' shave the miners at a ha'penny a chin. That'll pay my way. There's a new preacher planned to the Bible Christians, down to Innis, an' I'm goin' to help he. My dears, don't 'ee tell me the Lord didn' know what He was about when He cast the Garibaldi ashore!"
"What are you going to do with the money?" asked Paul Drew, for Dick really had no need of it. "I'll build a new gym, at Kentfield," was the reply. "Our present one is too small. We need an indoor baseball cage too." "Good for you!" cried Innis. "You're a real sport!" In the evolutions of the airship each one aboard was given a chance to pilot her.
"I wonder what will happen before we dance with them again?" spoke Paul, musingly. "You can't tell," answered Innis, as he looked down for a last sight of a certain pretty face. "Well, we can only hit the ground twice between here and San Francisco," remarked Dick, as he turned on more power. "If we have to come down the third time we lose the prize." "We're not going to lose it!" asserted Mr.
I roused him from his trance by jocularly calling Gibbes's attention to the display of money. I expected in this way to save Innis from committing the act which he seemingly did commit. Imagine then the dilemma in which I was placed when Gibbes confided to me the morning after what had occurred the night before. I was positive Innis had taken the money, yet I possessed no proof of it.
"Isn't there some shed around here where we could leave it, so it would be safe?" asked Innis. "What's the idea of that?" Dick wanted to know. "We'll be sailing down to the fort in an hour or so." "Why can't we stay over a day or so in New York?" went on Innis. "I don't get here very often, and I'd like to see the sights." "You mean you'd like to see the girls!" declared Paul, laughingly.
