"Compound-experiment-N.G. She's bin switchin' in the B. & A. yards for six months, when she wasn't in the shops. Ahem! I presume you found Boston somewhat isolated, madam, after your New York season?" "I am never so well occupied as when I am alone." The Compound seemed to be talking from half-way up her smoke-stack. "Sure," said the irreverent Poney, under his breath.
I'm a sewin'-machine, they'll guy my sand-box off in the yard." And 007, his hot-box cooled and his experience vastly enlarged, hauled the Mogul freight slowly to the roundhouse. "Hello, old man! Bin out all night, hain't ye?" said the irrepressible Poney, who had just come off duty. "Well, I must say you look it. Costly-perishable-fragile-immediate that's you!
"Split my tubes if that's actin' polite to a new member o' the Brotherhood," said Poney. "There wasn't any call to trample on ye like that. But manners was left out when Moguls was made. Keep up your fire, kid, an' burn your own smoke. 'Guess we'll all be wanted in a minute." Men were talking rather excitedly in the roundhouse.
Give a brief account of the Roman emperors who visited the United States, and state what they did there. Show the fallacy of defining an angle, as a worm at one end and a fool at the other. If a freshman A have any mouth x and a bottle of wine y, show how many applications of x to y will place y+y before A. Find the value of a 'bob, a 'tanner, a 'joey, a 'tizzy, a 'poney, and a 'monkey.
Another, having kicked about a whole little gilt library, was sitting, with the decorated pages torn asunder at his feet, reading a little dirty penny book, which the kitchen-maid had bought of a hawker at the door. The Persian carpet was strewed with the broken limbs of a painted horse, almost as large as a poney, while the discontented little master was riding astride on a long rough stick.
"You don't realise your responsibilities." "Yes, he does," said Poney, sharply; "but he don't lie down under 'em." Then, with aside-spurt of steam, exactly like a tough spitting: "There ain't more than fifteen thousand dollars' worth o' freight behind her anyway, and she goes on as if 't were a hundred thousand same as the Mogul's.
Bingle helped them off with their coats and caps and mufflers, then hugged them and lugged them up to the fire, while Melissa removed her skunk tippet, her poney coat and a hat that would have created envy in the soul of a less charitable creature than the mistress of the house. "And now," said Mr. Bingle, confronting the group, "who made you?" "God, Mr.
I'm not going to guy anyone as long as I steam not when they're new to the business an' anxious to learn. And I'm not goin' to guy the old Mogul either, though I did find him wreathed around with roastin'-ears. 'T was a little bit of a shote not a hog just a shote, Poney no bigger'n a lump of anthracite I saw it that made all the mess. Anybody can be ditched, I guess."
"You ought to be in the yard, Poney," said the Mogul, severely. "We're all long-haulers here." "That's what you think," the little fellow replied. "You'll know more 'fore the night's out. I've bin down to Track 17, and the freight there oh, Christmas!" "I've trouble enough in my own division," said a lean, light suburban loco with very shiny brake-shoes.
"Paint my bell sky-blue!" said Poney, the switcher. "Make me a surface-railroad loco with a hard-wood skirtin'-board round my wheels. Break me up and cast me into five-cent sidewalk-fakirs' mechanical toys! Here's an eight-wheel coupled 'American' don't know what a hot-box is! Never heard of an emergency-stop either, did ye? Don't know what ye carry jack-screws for?
