Right hand to your partner; grand right an' left! "When Hamilton turns away they's shore makin' things rock an' tremble; an' all to the strains of 'The Arkansaw Traveller, which is bein' evolved next door at Hamilton's expense. "Which somethin's goin' to pop; says Hamilton, mighty ugly to Enright an' the rest of us, as he pours a drink into his neck.
We'll get out some warrants, and we'll have somethin' to go on " "But nothing's happened to complain about," said Brink, quite reasonably. "One broken window's not worth a fuss." "But somethin's goin' to happen!" insisted the detective. "That guy Big Jake is poison! He's takin' over the whole town, bit by bit! You've been lucky so far, but your luck could run out " Brink shook his head.
"Busted!" ejaculated Anson, with a curse, as he slammed down his cards. "If I ain't hoodooed I'm a two-bit of a gambler!" "Sartin you're hoodooed," said Shady Jones, in scorn. "Is thet jest dawnin' on you?" "Boss, you play like a cow stuck in the mud," remarked Moze, laconically. "Fellars, it ain't funny," declared Anson, with pathetic gravity. "I'm jest gittin' on to myself. Somethin's wrong.
"Somethin's happening over there at the gate," said Si, and they quickened their steps in the direction of the main entrance to the camp. They found there a lank, long-haired, ragged Tennesseean, with a tattered hat of white wool on his head. His scanty whiskers were weather-beaten, he had lost most of his front teeth, and as he talked he spattered everything around with tobacco-juice.
Then, when it seemed certain there was no one stirring, Shorty glanced at the horse corral. Instantly he whispered to the other men: "Somethin's wrong, boys. Hamlin's horse is gone, an' Ruth's pony!" He dismounted and burst into the cabin, looking into the two bedrooms. He came out again, scratching his head in puzzlement. "I don't seem to sabe this here thing, boys.
But this time, not a word. Glum as an oyster. You just bet," Jimmy emphasized the statement with a series of nods, "that somethin's going on. Him and Gallito have had their heads too close. And that old fox is usually up to some mischief." "What kind?" asked Hanson quickly.
Him an' the Dean couldn't 'a' mixed it last night, could they? Do you reckon the Dean crawled him about somethin'?" Patches shook his head with a "Search me, pardner," as he turned to his horse. "Somethin's happened sure," muttered the other, busy with his saddle blanket. "Sufferin' cats! but I felt like he'd poured a bucket of ice water down my neck!"
He waved a hand to Carson as he flashed by, and something in his manner caused Carson to remark to the engineer of the dinky engine: "Somethin's up wid Trevison ag'in, Murph he's got a domned mean look in his eye. I'm the onluckiest son-av-a-gun in the worruld, Murph!
"Ye-ah," said Pinkey, humorously, "and you take holt of the other and put your foot on my chest so you kin git a purchase, then we'll both pull and somethin's bound to happen." "If I could only find a joint " "Worry one of them legs off and we'll see how we like it before you play yourself out on it." Wallie acted upon the suggestion and presented the severed member.
The latter caught it just in time to prevent a smash on the floor. "Say, look what yo're doing!" cried Racey. "Y' almost wasted a whole bottle of redeye. I ain't got money to throw away if you have." "I was just wonderin' what Fat Jakey's plan is," said Swing, scratching his head. "No use wonderin'," Racey told him. "It's their move." "Tell you, gents, somethin's come up to change my plans."
