And then a door opened; a slender form crossed the floor, and as Elliston turned to confront the new-comer he received a straight left-hander in the chest that sent him back reeling. Gasping, and very red, Nell started aside, and held out her hand with a low cry of alarm.
"You green-backed freshman! Shut up! You scrub!" "I'm not a varsity has-been!" retorted Ken, hurrying out to his position. The first man up, a left-hander, rapped a hard twisting liner to right field. Ken ran toward deep centre with all his might. The ball kept twisting and curving. It struck squarely in Ken's hands and bounced out and rolled far. When he recovered it the runner was on third base.
Rising up by main force with two of his foes on his back, he threw them off, drove his right fist into the eye of one, his foot into the stomach of a second, flattened the nose of a third on his face with a left-hander, and then wheeling round at random, plunged his elbow into the chest of another who was coming on behind, and caused him to measure his length on the ground.
But French, taking the blow on his guard, replied with a heavy left-hander fair on the Galician's chest, lifted him clear off his feet and hurled him breathless against his load of hay. The man recovered himself, grinning sheepishly, nodding his head vigorously and talking rapidly. "That is enough. He says he would like to learn how to do that. That is better than a club," interpreted Kalman.
"Left-hander?" "He has an iron hook instead of a right hand, and he claws with it." "Claws!" "I say, John," said Peter. "Yes." "Say, 'Ay, ay, sir." "Ay, ay, sir." "There is one thing," Peter continued, "that every boy who serves under me has to promise, and so must you." John paled. "It is this, if we meet Hook in open fight, you must leave him to me." "I promise," John said loyally.
With a snarl of "You damned white slaver!" the officer raised his night-stick and hurled himself at Gabriel. Gabriel ducked and planted a terrific left-hander on the "bull's" ear. Roaring, the majesty of the law careened against the bed, crashed the flimsy thing to wreckage and went down. Then, fighting back into the gloom of the trap, Gabriel engaged the two detectives. For a moment he held them.
Each had great pitching, with an eighteen year old right-hander pitching for Kansas City and an eighteen year old left-hander for the home team. The right-hander with Kansas City looks like he's going to develop into a great pitcher. They call him Smoky Joe Wood. But we have a left-hander with Indianapolis who is going places, too.
It missed the other's jaw by two inches, that catapeltic blow striking him full in the mouth, breaking his yellow teeth and smashing his thick lips so that the blood sprang out in a spray over his hairy chest, and as his head rocked backward David followed with a swift left-hander, and a second time missed the jaw with his right but drenched his clenched fist in blood.
And as the smith whirled to recover, a terrible left-hander met him just below the short ribs. With a grunt the man doubled, sprawled and fell. By some strange atavism, which he never afterward could understand, Allan counted, in the Folk's tongue: "Hathi, ko, zem, baku" and so up to "lamnu" ten.
It is so beastly dirty, don't you know." "Oh, fault be hanged!" cried Harry. "It's nobody's fault, but it looks rather serious. Get back, you brute!" So saying, he caught a burly Frenchman under the chin with a straight left-hander and hurled him back upon the crowd. "Ah, rather pretty," said the lieutenant, mildly. "It is not often you can just catch them that way."
