I'm down on two or three live ones when the odds are right, 'n' I've grabbed off a bundle I ain't ashamed to flash in any kind of company. "My string's been shipped South, 'n' I thinks I'll knock around Kentucky fur a couple of weeks, 'n' see if I can't pick up some hosses to train.

The molecules composing the string are disturbed in the string's vibrating length by the means used to excite the sound, and run off into sections, the comparative length and number of which depend partly upon the place in the string the excitement starts from; partly upon the force and the form of force that is employed; and partly upon the length, thickness, weight, strain, and elasticity of the string, with some small allowance for gravitation.

Immediately the players were back with him, deserting again after a series of losing bets. "Quit it, Smoke, quit it," Shorty advised. "The longest string of hunches is only so long, an' your string's finished. No more bull's-eyes for you." "I'm going to ring her once again before I cash in," Smoke answered.

In a minute or two he came back and lifted Agatha down. "It's the trace broken. I had to make the holes with my knife, and the string's torn through," he said.

But there was very little music either in the instrument or in the melody. The sound of the string's twang and the rattle of the bone plectrum drowned the sweetness of the note. The result was a kind of dry clatter or cackle which is ingenious, but not pleasing. Reggie Forsyth used to say that there is no melody in Japanese music; but that the rhythm is marvelous.

Kittredge and take his car back to the capital," he told the man. "When you do, you may give him my compliments, and tell him I preferred to run my own special train." The conductor grinned and made no reply, and he was still grinning when he sauntered into the railroad telegraph office and spoke to the operator. "I dunno what's up," he said, "but whatever it was, the string's broke.

In a minute or two Hawtrey came back and lifted Agatha down. "It's the trace broken. I had to make the holes with my knife, and the string's torn through," he explained. "Voltigeur got it round his feet, and, as usual, tried to bolt. We'll make the others pull up and take you in."
