Say, Miss Squires, supposin' you see if you can get the doctor down at the dam?" But when Annie tried to use the telephone her ring sounded idle and vacant in the box. The instrument was dead. "Out of order!" said Annie, "right when you want it. When you want to make a date the girls says, 'Party's line's out of order. Of course it is!" "Well, then I'll have to start down right away.
On the line's ships there is the chief engineer, senior and junior second, senior and junior third, and senior and junior fourth engineers. The men are assigned each to his own task. There are hydraulic, electric, pump and steam packing men, and the "guarantee" engineers, representing the builders and the contractors.
"Line's in the trace-hook." He was over the front of the wagon next moment, and the girl gasped as she saw him crawl out with an arm across the back of one of the galloping horses and his knees on the pole. It looked horribly dangerous, and probably was, for the wagon was lurching furiously down the declivity.
The old Board would ne'er ha' done it. They trusted me. But the new Board were all for reorganisation. Young Steiner Steiner's son the Jew, was at the bottom of it, an' they did not think it worth their while to send me word. The first I knew an' I was Chief Engineer was the notice of the line's winter sailin's, and the Breslau timed for sixteen days between port an' port! Sixteen days, man!
"I lost that dog on my old run with the Coast Line. Owners sued the road. Road came back on me said I had no business accepting him without a crate. Had to hunt a new job " "Oh, come off!" interrupted Earle. "The Coast Line's a hundred miles east." "Can't help it. That's the dog. Watch him. Commere Commere, Dan. See? Knows me. Ever see the beat of that?
Mon Baree, he have come back, he have come back!" "We've won, Ba'tiste! The line's open they'll be running trains through before night. And if she keeps her promise " "She?" Ba'tiste stared down at him. They had drawn away from the rest of the excited, noisy throng. "She? You mean " "Agnes. You've been taking care of her, haven't you?
He is a coal-merchant by trade. "How do you know?" I inquired. "Because I can't get any coal to-morrow line's bunged up for the troops." "No, he'll be going on Tuesday," said his wife, whose kindliness and splendid cooking I should miss greatly. "Is that so?" I asked, feigning an interest which I did not feel. A sore toe eclipsed all other matters for the time being.
Cartwright's father, however, had used sailing ships too long, and Cartwright's speculations and extravagance when he took control had not mended its fortunes. Then had come a number of lean years when few shipping companies earned a dividend and the line's capital steadily melted. Now the shareholders were not numerous and the ships were small.
"You know, that line's so sharp I'd be tempted to think of sapience as a result of mutation, except that I can't quite buy the same mutation happening in the same way on so many different planets." Ben Rainsford started to say something, then stopped short when a constabulary siren hooted over the camp. The Fuzzies looked up interestedly. They knew what that was.
There was an anxiety that neither should be recalled with the imputation resting upon them that they were concerned, say, in the so-called Huerta-Mexican plot if one really existed or with the conspiracies to destroy munition plants and munition ships, or, in Captain Boy-Ed's case, in the Hamburg-American line's chartered ships for provisioning of German cruisers, sailing with false manifests and clearance papers.
