I had not seen him since he had indignantly left us, three years before, in Eureka Gulch.
"After completing the Malay Peninsula I had planned to visit Java and Borneo; but having found in the Malay Peninsula and in Ceylon a bamboo fibre which averaged a test from one to two hundred per cent. better than that in use at the lamp factory, I decided it was unnecessary to visit these countries or New Guinea, as my 'Eureka' had already been established, and that I would therefore set forth over the return hemisphere, searching China and Japan on the way.
She remembered how, more than a year before, she had been invited to Eureka for a ball. She had stayed with her friend Miss Jennie Blood; by whose advice and with whose help she had worn for the first time a low-necked dress. She had been uncomfortable in it at first, very uncomfortable, but the men liked it, all of them.
I even forgot one thing: Dorothy's Pink Kitten." "For goodness sake!" exclaimed Bungle, sitting up and looking interested. "A Pink Kitten? How absurd! Is it glass?" "No; just ordinary kitten." "Then it can't amount to much. I have pink brains, and you can see 'em work." "Dorothy's kitten is all pink brains and all except blue eyes. Name's Eureka.
Can't you see that if I had made a quick run for the lee rail while the vessel was pitching to leeward the chances are I'd continue right on overboard? As soon as I get my bearings again I'll empty the bucket, sir." "Der fire buckets ban't for dot purpose." "All right, sir. I'll buy you a new fire bucket when we get to Eureka," Matt answered contritely.
But as we have always seen that ever, when this strange being woke from his ideal abstraction, he awoke to honour and courage and truth, so now, whether, as he had said, the absence of the Eureka left his mind to the sense of practical duties, or whether their common suffering had more endeared to him his gentle companion, and affection sharpened reason, Adam Warner became puissant and majestic in his rights and sanctity of father, greater in his homely household character, than when, in his mania of inventor, and the sublime hunger of aspiring genius, he had stolen to his daughter's couch, and waked her with the cry of "Gold!"
People like Nikolashka are not equal to smothering with a pillow, they set to work with an axe or a mallet. . . . Some third person must have smothered him, but who?" Dyukovsky pulled his cap over his eyes, and pondered. He was silent till the waggonette had driven up to the examining magistrate's house. "Eureka!" he said, as he went into the house, and took off his overcoat.
"Then why did you say Eureka! and look so pleased?" "Because on that day I shall leave cards on the Northbury folk not one of them will be at home." "Shabby," muttered Catherine. Her dark cheek flushed, she turned away. Mabel put out her little foot and pressed it against her sister's. The pressure signified warning. "Then you are not going to the bazaar, mother?" she questioned. "I don't know.
"You're a gentleman," said Anthony, decidedly. "I've heard of these young bloods spending $24 a dozen for soap, and going over the hundred mark for clothes. You've got as much money to waste as any of 'em, and yet you stick to what's decent and moderate. Now I use the old Eureka not only for sentiment, but it's the purest soap made.
McManus' art studies planted now so that the burg looks like a Kansas town the day after the number two car of the circus leaves. "Did you know that they are enlarging the secret tunnel in the new Friary so that Toxen Worm can get his getaway if the occasion should arise? Honest, it looks like the front view of the Hoboken tunnel. Oh, law me, what is that in the offening? Eureka!
