"It may be possible for an honest man to be a tramp even a vag, but why did you steal?"

He had not gone three cars before the mob saw him and with the cry of "The scab! the scab!" sent a shower of sticks and stones after the flying brakeman.

Redmond followed suit and they adjourned to the stable. "I saw that beggar yesterday on my way up," remarked George, ill-advisedly. Yorke stared.

The most beautiful tour is along the river Vág, starting from the most northerly point in Hungary near the beautiful old stronghold of Árva in the county of Árva.

"Huh!" said the general manager, pushing out his lips, "is this your notion of a reliable man, Patsy?"
And a Spinney badge on every one of 'em!" He was challenged promptly. The corridor was full of Everett men. "Ten dollars to a drink that your man Spinney pays for the band! And when a band starts up street you can get every yag, vag, and jag in the city to trail it! You can't fool doubtful delegates that way, Seth! Go hang your badges on a hickory limb. They're only good to scare crows.
"That ain't just how we handle vag suicides, but we'll let 'er go this time," he commented. It did not take Jeff long to learn how to cover a story to the satisfaction of the city editor. He had only to be conventional, sensational, and in general accurate as to his facts.
"G d d n!" he spat out to Yorke, from between clenched teeth, "ther' goes another forlorn hope. 'Tis no manner av use worryin' tho' let's go get that jury empannelled!" He uttered a snorting chuckle as a thought seemed to strike him. "H-mm! Gully must be getthin' tindher-hearthed! Th' last vag we had up behfure him he sint um down for sixty days."
