Yahi-Bahi made four salaams, one to each point of the compass, and the meeting dispersed. And that evening, over fifty dinner tables, everybody discussed the nature of Bahee, and tried in vain to explain it to men too stupid to understand. Now it so happened that on the very afternoon of this meeting at Mrs. Rasselyer-Brown's, the Philippine chauffeur did a strange and peculiar thing.
Rasselyer-Brown; and it was understood that steps would be taken to form a special society, to be known as the Yahi-Bahi Oriental Society. Mr. Sikleigh Snoop, the sex-poet, was the leading spirit in the organization. He had a special fitness for the task: he had actually resided in India.
Then, looking across at the clock on the mantel-piece, and realizing that Mr. Yahi-Bahi must have been delayed and that something must be done, she said: "And now, ladies, as we have in our midst a most eminent gentleman who probably has thought more deeply about constitutions than " All eyes turned at once towards Judge Longerstill, but as fortune had it at this very moment Mr.
Ram Spudd were lifted up into the patrol wagon where they seated themselves with a composure worthy of the best traditions of Jehumbabah and Bahoolapore. In fact, Mr. Spudd was heard to address the police as "boys," and to remark that they had "got them good" that time. So the seance ended and the guests vanished, and the Yahi-Bahi Society terminated itself without even a vote of dissolution.
Sikleigh Snoop entered, followed by Mr. Yahi-Bahi and Mr. Ram Spudd. Mr. Yahi-Bahi was tall. His drooping Oriental costume made him taller still. He had a long brown face and liquid brown eyes of such depth that when he turned them full upon the ladies before him a shiver of interest and apprehension followed in the track of his glance.
Yahi-Bahi, perhaps in the struggle which had taken place, had been scraped white in patches. They were making no attempt to break away. Indeed, Mr. Spudd, with that complete Bahee, or Submission to Fate, which is attained only by long services in state penitentiaries, was smiling and smoking a cigarette.
He put his back against a curtain and spread out his arms sideways and wouldn't let me pass. He said that Mr. Yahi-Bahi was in meditation and mustn't be disturbed." "How delightful!" echoed Miss Snagg. But in reality Mr. Yahi-Bahi was sitting behind the curtain eating a ten-cent can of pork and beans. "What I like most about eastern people," went on Mrs.
From his throat there issued a low wail in which the word wah! wah! could be distinguished. The excitement was intense. "What does wah mean?" whispered Mr. Spillikins. "Hush!" said Mr. Snoop; "it means, 'O Buddha, wherever thou art in thy lofty Nirvana, descend yet once in astral form before our eyes!" Mr. Yahi-Bahi rose.
Rasselyer-Brown's distressing experience with Yahi-Bahi had left her in a condition in which she was utterly fit for nothing, except to go on a Mediterranean cruise, with about eighty other people also fit for nothing. Mr.
He first asked Mr. Rasselyer-Brown for a few hours' leave of absence to attend the funeral of his mother in-law. This was a request which Mr. Rasselyer-Brown, on principle, never refused to a man-servant. Whereupon, the Philippine chauffeur, no longer attired as one, visited the residence of Mr. Yahi-Bahi.
