"Mabbe," murmured Larry the Bat, "youse'd know him better when he ain't dolled up." He swept the glasses from Virat's nose, and wrenched away the black moustache and goatee. "Kenleigh!" gasped Meighan. "Mabbe," said Larry the Bat, with a twisted grin, "dere's somethin' he may have fergotten ter wise youse up on, but he didn't mean ter hide nothin' in his confession did youse, Frenchy?
"Where?" "I dunno, sur." "Do you think you have them about you or in your luggage?" "We've no luggage, sur." "Is this your sister?" "She is, sur." "Are your parents aboard?" "They are not, sur." "Are you all alone?" "We are, sur." "You can't go without your tickets." The younger one began to cry the more, and the elder answered, "Mabbe we can foind thim, sur."
But Smarlinghue had retreated now, and, crouched upon the cot, was mumbling through twisted lips. And again the Wolf laughed, and, gathering up the jewels, dropped them into his pocket, and backed to the door. He stood there an instant, his eyes narrowed on Jimmie Dale. "I got the stuff now" he was snarling low, viciously "and mabbe that puts it a little more up to me.
Smarlinghue, in a sort of stupefied amazement, stared around the room as though he expected to see a gleaming heap of diamonds leap into sight somewhere before him. He shook his head helplessly. "I don't know what you're talking about," he mumbled. "I I heard a row outside there a little while ago. Maybe that's it." "Yes mabbe it is!" sneered the Wolf viciously.
He's our one best bet, and we fold him to our breasts tenderly, and we protect him from all harm and danger and sudden death." The Flopper blinked a little helplessly. "Mabbe," said the Flopper, "I got de wrong dope. Some of dem words you read I ain't hip to. Wot's anymaly mean?" "Anomaly?" Doc Madison reached for his glass, tossed off the contents and set it down.
But how did youse know dat guy Kenleigh had de goods?" "That's none of your business, is it?" replied Virat, a little defiantly. "You're getting yours now." Larry the Bat appeared to ponder the other's words, a curious smile on his lips. "Well, mabbe it ain't," he admitted. "Let it go anyway, an' split the swag. Count 'em out!"
"Well den, I'll help ter put youse wise. But mabbe I'd better get yer gun first, eh?" As he had done to Meighan, he removed a revolver from Virat's pocket. "T'anks!" he said. He pushed Virat with his revolver muzzle toward the table, and forced the other into a chair. He sat down opposite Virat, and smiled unpleasantly. "Now den, come across! Youse croaked de Magpie ter-night!"
Been curin' us folks around here longer'n any one can remember just does it by faith, too." Madison shook his head slowly. "I might just as well be frank with you, Mr. Higgins," he said. "I've never taken much stock in faith cure and that sort of thing." "Mabbe," suggested Mr. Higgins deeply, "you ain't had much experience." "No," confessed Madison reflectively; "I haven't I haven't had any."
I don't know whether dere's anyt'ing goin' on or not mabbe she's only gettin' lonely youse ain't hung around her much lately, Doc." Madison laughed suddenly. "You're talking through your hat, Flopper," he said shortly. "You don't know Helena."
If an ingin comes up an screwges its suction on to the plug, all the other ingins as comes after it has to stan' by an' do nuffin. But by puttin' the cistern over the plug an' lettin' it fill, another ingin or mabbe two more, can ram in its suction and drink away till it's fit to burst, d'ye see."
