Rounders's first act after the rescue was to kiss Miss Stubbs on both cheeks, saying as he did so, "Sally Stubbs, you are the only one of the kind." "Mister Rounders," said she, pertly pushing him back, "none of them liberties with me. I may be foolish enough to go into a cage after you, but I'm not foolish enough to suffer them things."
After which he waved the half consumed beef in the air and bowed, amid great applause, in which Rounders heartily joined. Then the tamer said: "Brutus, you have behaved so well I shall reward you with another piece." Which he did, the beast seizing it and gorging himself as before.
I stooped and picked it up, to find that it was one of the solid indiarubber balls we used for our games at rounders, and tightly fastened around it was a piece of thin twine, the strong, light string we used for kites.
He communicated his determination to the manager, who told him if he thought he could do it, to go ahead, for the managerial mind was absorbed with the idea of additional attraction. He also informed Miss Stubbs of his project, who exhibited more solicitude, and her first impulse was to dissuade the ambitious Rounders from the undertaking.
'Well that's not so easy to answer when the question is stupidly put, said the woman. 'My sons do as they like; they are playing rounders now with the clouds up there in the great hall, and she pointed up into the sky. 'Oh indeed! said the Prince. 'You seem to speak very harshly, and you are not so gentle as the women I generally see about me! 'Oh, I daresay they have nothing else to do!

Nellie Farren's great song was one about a street Arab with the words: "Let me hold your, nag, sir, carry your little bag, sir, anything you please to give thank'ee, sir!"
On landing in New York, I shall instantly proceed to the Polo Grounds to watch a game of Rounders, and will cable you the full score. Well. I think that's about all. So good-bye or even farewell for the present. P.S. I know you'll understand, dad. I'm doing what seems to me the only possible thing. Don't worry about me. I shall be all right.
Denny had a walking-stick we can't break him of walking with it a book to read in case he got tired of being a discoverer, a butterfly net and a box with a cork in it, a tennis ball, if we happened to want to play rounders in the pauses of exploring, two towels and an umbrella in the event of camping or if the river got big enough to bathe in or to be fallen into.
But until she went to the Van Styne, she seems to have been straight." "There is always an 'until' in these cases," observed Mr. Tollman dryly and the head of the "Searchlight" nodded his acquiescence. "Sure there is. She was young and what the rounders call a good-looking chicken.
When Smith's Circus and Menagerie Combination Company went to Utica James Rounders was a lusty fellow of twenty, of some natural sagacity, and no school education. An interest in wild beasts had been developing in him for several years, and the odor of sawdust had become grateful to his nostrils. It was, however, only one kind of wild beast with which he was especially occupied.
