"He deserves to live in even a better house," I mused, as I turned away; and just then I was clapped upon the shoulder with a "Helloa, my old friend" the telegraph operator. I shook hands with him, and at once he began to tell me of his affairs. "Getting along all right," he said. "Haven't got quite as much freedom as I used to have, but I reckon it's better for me.
It was in the month of February, but the weather was mild for that season, and there had been a plentiful fall of rain. Ben was on duty until ten, and he was in the very act of rising from his seat when he called out: "Helloa! here comes the message for Mr. Burkhill."
Since the stream was so insignificant, Wade Ruggles leaped across and went up the cañon on the other side, his course being parallel with his friend's. A hundred yards further and he made a discovery. "Helloa, Brush, here they are!" The parson bounded over the brook and hurried to his side, but a disappointment followed.
"I shall observe the vapor as soon as they," he thought, "for my eyes are as sharp helloa! that beats the mischief!" At last Warren Starr learned what it was that had alarmed his pony. The keen eyes, instead of looking at the crest of the rocky ridge on his right, were now centred on the ground, where they detected a small dark speck swiftly approaching the horseman.
Helloa, yonder comes McElwin and Sawyer. They are crossing the street. By George, I believe they are coming here." "All right. Let's step back and stand at ease ready to receive them." "Say, I believe there's going to be trouble here," said Warren. "And if there is you wouldn't mind writing it up, would you?" "No, I wouldn't mind.
The men lounged upon the boulders at hand, smoked their pipes and occasionally exchanged a few words, but none was in the mood for talking and they formed a grim, stolid group. Hardly ten minutes had passed, when Ruggles, with some evidence of excitement, exclaimed in a guarded undertone: "Helloa! Something's up!"
"I want to see how a little Indian girl looks," muttered Ben with a laugh, following his mother into the house. Alice caught sight of him, and was in his arms the next instant, while Linna rose to her feet, and stood with her forefinger between her teeth, shyly studying the newcomer. "Helloa, Linna! how are you?" he called, setting down his young sister and catching up the little Indian.
"These Comanches are as fond of smoking as are our men, and I suppose one of them has some trouble in lighting his pipe or cigarette helloa! there it goes!" The light which was so interesting to him suddenly went out, and all was blank darkness again. He waited and looked for several minutes, but it did not reappear.
He was bareheaded and in flannels; and I could not help it if he looked to me so good, so strong, and so well able to protect a woman against every danger, that the instructions I had received in church, and the resolutions I had formed there, seemed to run out of my heart as rapidly as the dry sand of the sea-shore runs through one's fingers. "Helloa!" he cried, as usual.
In the afternoon of the day that followed the publication of the confession Flummers minced his way into the Press Club. He wore a suit of new clothes, and although the weather was warm, he carried a silk-faced overcoat. Before any one took notice of him he put his coat and hat on the piano, and then, with a gesture, he exclaimed: "Wow!" "Why, here's Kittymunks! Helloa, Kit!" one man shouted.
