I sets me der clock, undt figure dot all oudt, so I haf yust der time to valk here. Der sooner you obens der door, Misder Jack, der sooner I pe on der chob," was the reply of the little man who had been hired to watch the mill, and those strange boxes, during the night. Evidently Hans was "strictly business." He had been hired to watch, and he wanted to be earning his wages as quickly as possible.
Undt it habbens dot yust now I am oudt off a chob. Dot vill pe allright. I hopes me idt turns out so. Undt now, off you like, you could lock der door some. I stay me here till somepody gomes der mornin' py." "Oh! you keep the key, Hans," replied Jack. "You might want to chase out after some one; but father told me to warn you not to be tempted to go far away.
The dog's barking gave place to terrified whinings, which in turn were suddenly quenched to a choking murmur. "Gome in, Sharlie, kvick!" "You got him?" queried Charlie, opening the door cautiously. "Did he bite you?" "Na, yust ma mitten. Gat a sack or someding da die him oop in."
The hollow echoing along those underground caverns tended to make all noise unrecognizable. "Yust two of you fellars bettar come by me, an' gif a leeft," he ventured, doubtfully. Those nearer faces down the tunnel were turned toward the voice in sudden, bewildered surprise, the lights flickering as the heads uplifted. "Vas it you, Nels Swanson?" "Yas, I tank so; I yust want Peterson an' Ole.
"Oh, yes, I hat a leetle yust enough to know der taste of it," agreed the German, with a genial smile. "But I ain't really hat vot you could call a meal of it." "You're like a man I heard of," said Russ, joining in the talk.
"What are you doing here?" he demanded, turning suddenly upon the stable man. "Oh, I yust lookin' a leetle out." "Mr. Stiles, what does this mean, that you have that man dogging me?" "It's his affair, not mine. He thinks he has a certain interest in you." Then he turned in exasperation to the sheriff. "Can you give me a little information, Mr. Kellar? What has that Swede to do with me?
"Yust took a look at may! Ay ben give you nodder bellyful, y'batcha!" He ducked low to avoid the vicious sweep of a heavy stick, grabbed the assailant by the ankles and swung him around his head as if the man had weighed but twenty pounds. Only two were left facing him now and they fell back before this terrible antagonist, swearing impotently.
It seemed to him that a Senior party to which he was to escort Miss Spencer was too important to pass airily off with the same old suit. He had another card up his sleeve. "Aye ent tal yu," he explained when we asked him anxiously what it was he proposed to wear. "Yust vait. Aye ban de hull show, Aye tank. Yu fallers yust put on your yumpin'-yack suits. Aye mak yu look lak torta cent."
"Señorita, I must gif you anodther proof dthat I am not Jherman, and am unlike your how you say practical countrymen. I haf know you two days, yust so long haf I loaf you, and being Peruvian, I must die if I tell you not." "Blanche, where are you?" It is Mrs. Steele's voice, and I call out: "Do come here, the jelly fish are simply resplendent on this side."
The rugged wilderness of the Cordilleras hems us in on every side. "Dthose air yust the zame mountains I look on from my home in Peru; it ees von chain from Tierra del Fuego to Mexico," and a look of welcome comes into the handsome face. "It ees four years since I zee dthose Cordilleras. I am glad I am near dthem vonce more.
