42077We''ve arranged some single stick bouts and an exhibition drill and so on-- you do n''t mind, do you?
42077Well, Rob, what do_ you_ say to transplanting the Boy Scouts, or part of them, down along the big Ditch?
42077Well, how are you anyhow, old fellow?
42077Well, what do you think of my proposal?
42077Well, what do you want?
42077Well, what happened in the Mexican war?
42077What about it, Rob?
42077What are all the chairs arranged outside for?
42077What are they up to?
42077What are we going to do?
42077What are we to do, sir?
42077What are you going to do?
42077What are you looking so glum about?
42077What d''ye want it fer, hey?
42077What do you say if we leave a few souvenirs pasted up there?
42077What in the world have you lads been up to now,he exclaimed half laughingly as they rejoined him,"taking a swim with your uniforms on?"
42077What is a test hole?
42077What is it?
42077What made you do it, you rascal?
42077What made''em bust?
42077What mischief are those rascals up to? 42077 What mischief is Jared up to?"
42077What news from the Academy, Tubby?
42077What on earth happened?
42077What on earth is he doing here?
42077What room is your child in?
42077What was that?
42077What would have happened?
42077What''s that?
42077What''s the matter now?
42077What''s the matter?
42077What''s the matter?
42077What''s up?
42077What''s your dad going to do with the tributary when he finds it?
42077Where are we, Fred?
42077Where?
42077Who says so?
42077Who''s oo?
42077Who? 42077 Whose orders?"
42077Why ca n''t you put it off till I get out of the country?
42077Why do n''t you give those toy soldiers a good hiding?
42077Why not do it now?
42077Why not? 42077 Why, you chump,"roared Fred,"do n''t you know who that was?"
42077Why? 42077 Wonder what kind of a boss he is?"
42077Wonderful how they understand each other, is n''t it?
42077Would he be too late?
42077Yes, what was it?
42077You have n''t told us yet just what it was that happened?
42077You say that you have duplicates of Mainwaring''s plans, showing exactly the weakest points of the great dam?
42077You-- you do n''t think that there are any Indians off in the forest, do you?
42077A Latin grammar?"
42077All got steady heads, I hope?"
42077All right?"
42077Also, in what direction had their retreat led them?
42077Are you injured?"
42077As for putting it off, what time like the present?
42077Break my arm?
42077But tell me, can you see the signs of any wild beasts?"
42077But what steps do you propose to take?"
42077But what was he doing on the canal work?
42077By the way, we are going to start up the Chagres day after to- morrow; wo n''t that be bully?
42077By what right?
42077Could he still keep up his gait?
42077Could they get it?
42077Got the time?
42077Had he told the plotters of what he had overheard and warned them that vigilant retribution was on their trail?
42077Had they collided with some huge creature that made its home in the tepid waters of the Chagres?
42077Have n''t you got your compass?"
42077How about it, Rob?"
42077How do you like''em?"
42077How far had they come on their wild run to escape the great serpent?
42077How was he going to do it?
42077Is that clear?
42077Kaint git yer car out uv ther ditch, hey?
42077Look there, will you?"
42077Mainwaring?"
42077Me?"
42077See the point?
42077Should he go back and tell Mr. Raynor what he had discovered?
42077Suddenly he stopped, and from under the coat came a muffled but inquisitive voice:"Is''oo cwyin'', Mister Fireman?"
42077The back door, eh?"
42077Two Boy Scouts lost in a bit of timber like this?
42077Was he allied with the forces that were trying to defeat the completion of the canal?
42077Was he to die there in that inferno of flames?
42077What better place could Jared be, watched as he is, than holding down a job as a canal worker, bossing some small undertaking?
42077What d''ye want it fer,--hey?"
42077What does it mean?"
42077What excuse could we offer?"
42077What if they were caught in a fiery trap, unable to escape?
42077What in the world is he doing here?"
42077What on earth shall we do?"
42077What shall I do?"
42077What''s the result?
42077What?"
42077Where have you got to?"
42077Who would ever dream of looking for him in such a position?"
42077Why repine?
42077Why should they run?
42077Would they kill you?"
42077You come see me some time, eh?"
42077bellowed the farmer again,"air you aidin''and abettin''lawless acts?"
42077cried Hiram suddenly,"what''s that?"
42077grunted Max,"what are you trying to do?
42077shouted Mr. Mainwaring to the white man, as the pair hustled by along the rampart- like heights of the big dam,"where are you bound for?"
42077whistled Rob,"so Jared is going to beat a retreat, eh?"
60740''Bucky''Harrison?
60740A bad motive? 60740 Am I a good scout?
60740And did he survive that?
60740And for what?
60740And what are you doing roosting on that heap of furniture like a crazy hen? 60740 And what brought you way down here from Wolverton?"
60740And what then?
60740And you are going to mix up in another revolution? 60740 And you are sure that young Goodwin is in serious danger?"
60740And you were the regular pitcher?
60740Anybody killed?
60740Are n''t you taking a lot for granted? 60740 Are you going to report what I found out-- that the commissary stores were smuggled on board the_ Juan Lopez_?"
60740Are you honestly alive?
60740Are you killed?
60740Are you now going home or are you returning?
60740Are you really all right, Walter?
60740But could n''t you come home every week?
60740But do you honestly think he has any intention of giving me a job on the gold roll?
60740But what about Goodwin?
60740But what about that checker? 60740 But you will give me a chance to talk it over with you?"
60740Can we see him to- night?
60740Can you find him to- night?
60740Can you quit work at once and come over to the hotel with me?
60740Can you recommend him?
60740Dear me, why did we let him make the trip to New York alone?
60740Did he really want to see me?
60740Did my letters help you?
60740Do you know what that means? 60740 Do you mind shouldering this confounded bag?
60740Do you really think there will be something for me to do?
60740Does Major Glendinning know I have been put out of commission?
60740Does this Captain Brincker live in Panama?
60740For twenty cents an hour? 60740 Has base- ball anything to do with your lively interest in this young man?"
60740Has he got himself into a scrape, or ca n''t ye get anny word from him at all?
60740Have you found another pitcher?
60740Horatio, what_ is_ the matter with you?
60740How long will Quesada wait for you? 60740 How many men were there on the_ Juan Lopez_?
60740How old are you?
60740If I had n''t set out to find you and stuck to it like a terrier at a rat- hole, where would you be now?
60740Is it as bad as that?
60740Is the child dreaming?
60740Is there any way, if a fellow ca n''t afford to pay his passage, for him to get to the Isthmus of Panama?
60740Is this what you have been leading up to?
60740It looks as if his face had been stepped on, but the firmly moulded chin is quite well done, do n''t you think? 60740 Lost it before you found it, eh?
60740My employer?
60740Officially? 60740 Pretty exclusive, are n''t you?"
60740Put them in my straw hat? 60740 Quesada will not dare to knock Goodwin on the head and throw him into the bay, will he?
60740Quesada, eh?
60740Something diplomatic in the wind?
60740The owner is General Quesada?
60740There is to be a revolution somewhere?
60740To Colonel Gunther?
60740To take me home with you?
60740Um- m, he will, will he?
60740Was he-- was he blown up?
60740What about his trying to shoot Señor Alfaro?
60740What about the base- ball practice?
60740What about this arm?
60740What can I do for you?
60740What did I tell you?
60740What did he say he was going to do with me?
60740What do you mean by saying we ca n''t keep him?
60740What do you want to say to me?
60740What if I drop a box of it?
60740What right have you to ask my business?
60740What will you do with the cablegram?
60740What will you do? 60740 What''s the matter with him?"
60740What? 60740 When can you start?
60740Who cares about you?
60740Who is not? 60740 Who purchased the_ Juan Lopez_?"
60740Why do n''t you help me get out of the house?
60740Why not bunk with me for a few days? 60740 Why not?"
60740Will General Quesada fight?
60740Will he let you talk to him? 60740 With your arm in a sling?
60740You are going to consult with the police?
60740You fear the_ Juan Lopez_ may again annoy the politics of your fair country of Colombia?
60740You mean to insinuate that there might possibly be an opening for a first- class accountant and book- keeper in the canal organization?
60740You_ would_ steal Uncle Sam''s groceries and go skylarking off to start trouble in the cute little republic of San Salvador, would you?
60740Alas, is it serious?"
60740Alfaro smiled rather sheepishly as he remarked:"It was not very diplomatic?
60740And I do n''t want them to worry----"Naughton nodded gravely and suggested:"Shall I tell them about your impressions of the canal?
60740And I found you, did n''t I?"
60740And have you ever seen that man with the gray mustache before?"
60740And how fast is she?"
60740And how is that dear family of yours?
60740And what about the tug and the rest of the outfit?"
60740And what becomes of Goodwin in the meantime?"
60740And what does Captain Brincker do on board?"
60740And when will she make another high record?"
60740And you say that Captain Brincker has been living with him?"
60740And you think he can pitch winning ball for Cristobal?"
60740Anything serious?
60740Anything wrong with th''strappin''lad that went sailin''off to make his forthune?
60740Anything wrong?"
60740Are you a real ball- player?
60740Are you afraid I''ll bite ye?
60740Are you man enough to resent it?"
60740Are you not old enough to mind your own business?"
60740Are you really looking for a job, my boy?
60740Are you really looking for hard work at silver wages?"
60740Are you tough enough to shovel coal all day?
60740Are you very anxious?"
60740As Devlin left the office he said to Alfaro:"What did I tell you, my son?
60740At any rate, the checker was guilty, and why had the two of them come straight to this house from Balboa?
60740At length he grumbled:"What are you going to do about it?"
60740At the episode of the parrot and broomstick, the steam- shovel man violently interrupted:"General Quesada?
60740Better lay off and take it easy for the day, had n''t you?"
60740Between us, as man to man?
60740Ca n''t you see it for yourself?
60740Ca n''t you take me on to help clear this mess?"
60740Can you pitch?
60740Can you steer clear of landslides and revolutions for a while?"
60740Captain Bradshaw, strolling through the ship on a tour of inspection, noticed the gloomy young seaman and kindly inquired:"Lost anything?
60740Captain Brincker advanced swiftly, confronted him, and asked in a heavy voice:"Were you looking for somebody?"
60740Curious in his turn, he asked:"Is your office on the wharf?"
60740Devlin was feeling the nervous strain, and with a yawn he suggested:"What about making some black coffee, Captain Brincker?
60740Did n''t we have a lot to do with getting him back?"
60740Did you have a pleasant trip?"
60740Do I look like a fever- stricken wreck?
60740Do you believe I am telling the truth?"
60740Do you expect to whip those hard- hitting rascals from Culebra?"
60740Do you honestly mean it?"
60740Do you know where to find a launch in a hurry and a man to run it?"
60740Do you see the pretty young girl with the fair hair and the pink cheeks?
60740Do you think I would stand any show of getting a job on the Panama Canal?"
60740Do you want to go home to the States?
60740Do you want to notify any friends?"
60740Does he think you are incapable of taking care of yourself?"
60740Does it sound crazy to you?"
60740Does your father need you in his own business?"
60740Goodwin was working his passage to the Isthmus to look for a job and----""Why did n''t he let me know it on shipboard?"
60740Grasping him by the shoulders, Devlin hoarsely demanded:"Could you tell if Goodwin was on board?"
60740Harrison thumped him on the back and jubilantly shouted:"Was n''t that easy?
60740Has he been forgettin''to write to ye?
60740Have a cup of tea or a bottle of ginger- ale?"
60740Have you any clews?"
60740Have you dug Twenty- six out of the slide?
60740Have you enough ready money to finance th''journey?
60740Have you landed a job?
60740He bided his time until Major Glendinning, passing through the warehouse on a tour of inspection, halted to ask:"How are you going to like the job?"
60740He picked up the revolver, eyed Walter and the broom- handle with a comical air of surprise, and inquired:"Who started this circus?
60740He was among his own countrymen, but where was there any place for him?
60740He was living with one of the surgeons at Ancon?"
60740High wages?
60740His father asked, when the excitement had subsided:"Well, what luck, my son?"
60740Horatio, do you suppose a batch of my doughnuts would keep if I put them in a tin cake- box?
60740How in the world did you happen to get on my trail?
60740How is the arm?
60740I am catcher of the Culebra nine, do you see?"
60740I can not let you come into this house, do you understand?"
60740I do n''t look like a very dangerous person, do I?"
60740I will find you at your office in the Zone?"
60740If you want the good salt wind, why do n''t you run over to Balboa docks?
60740In the mending basket?"
60740Is he all mended?"
60740Is it a revolution?
60740Is it impossible?"
60740Is it not so?"
60740Is it you or somebody else?"
60740Is that clearly understood?"
60740Is there anything bigger to see?"
60740It must not be mournful, must it?
60740It sounds perfectly awful, does n''t it?"
60740It was a revolution?
60740Mr. Naughton whistled, cocked a scrutinizing eye, and observed:"So you got into trouble with the Spiggoty police?
60740Naughton?"
60740Need any money?
60740Need any money?"
60740Nice, clean- built chap, is n''t he?
60740Now that you have begun, will you be so good as to let the cat all the way out of the bag?"
60740Now what can I do for you?
60740Now, what about young Goodwin?
60740Rather chagrined to hear diplomacy dismissed so scornfully, Alfaro timidly ventured:"The civil administration of the Canal Zone?"
60740Recognizing Jack Devlin, Walter managed to find his voice and called feebly:"Is this what you call a great place for a husky young fellow?"
60740Resorting to strategy, he said to his father when next they met:"Now that you are here, why do n''t you spend a week in seeing the canal?
60740Say, Mr. Naughton, how old must a man be to run a steam- shovel?"
60740Say, father, we Americans ought to be proud of the Panama Canal, do n''t you think?"
60740Seventy- five dollars a month, and there are various jobs I am capable of filling----""Is this a fairy story?"
60740Shall I come back to this house?"
60740Shall I convoy you into the kitchen?
60740Shall I telephone the Zone police department?
60740She looks perfectly ridiculous, does n''t she?
60740So he wanted him to pitch for Cristobal?
60740Supposing one of those horrid mosquitoes that carry yellow- fever should fly in and bite him?
60740Tell me, what is Captain Brincker doing here?
60740Tell me, where is Goodwin?"
60740Tempted by the amicable drift of the interview, Walter ventured a dangerous question:"Your employer-- who is he?"
60740That man?
60740The address of General Quesada''s house in Panama?
60740The arm?
60740The elderly gentleman leaned forward in the saddle and eagerly inquired:"Bless me, is that true?
60740The merchandise would be missed later, but what proof was there that it had been slipped aboard the Chilean steamer?
60740The steam- shovel man loudly summoned them, adding with tremendous gusto:"Did n''t I tell you that Goodwin was the finest lad that ever happened?
60740The victor''s nose was bleeding, but he looked pleased as he gustily observed:"Too speedy for you, eh?
60740These letters were meant to deceive us?"
60740Wake up the American minister in Panama?
60740Walter shied like a frightened colt, and stammered with sudden loss of enthusiasm:"A whole s- ship- load of d- dynamite?
60740Want to write a letter home?"
60740Was he quite sure the melting snow had not wet his feet?
60740Were you looking for me?"
60740What about it?"
60740What about that?"
60740What are your plans?"
60740What did we tell you?"
60740What do you hear from them?"
60740What do you think of him?"
60740What else?"
60740What has he done with him?"
60740What have you done with him?
60740What have you done with him?"
60740What is it they do to sailors, Horatio?
60740What is your business?"
60740What kind of a riddle is that?"
60740What makes you think of taking such a long jump from home?"
60740What''s on your mind?"
60740What''s the evidence?
60740What_ is it_ all about?"
60740When Alfaro returned, he asked him excitedly:"Do you know anything about this_ Juan Lopez_ steamer alongside?
60740When does a ship sail to the place ye want to go to?"
60740Where are father''s clean socks, mother?
60740Where are you living?"
60740Where had he found funds to finance a Central American revolution?
60740Where have you been?
60740Where is he?
60740Who ever dreamed the beggars would do anything but surrender?"
60740Who is he?
60740Who knows?
60740Why do you ask with so much interest, Goodwin?"
60740Why not go to Culebra with me to- morrow morning and see some of the canal work?
60740Why will ye go messin''around and wastin''time tryin''to raise money?
60740Will he bother himself with this affair of ours?"
60740Will it be all right if I telephone you by seven o''clock?"
60740Will three hundred be enough?
60740Will you come back to Ancon with me and dine at the Tivoli Hotel to- night?"
60740Will you go on board with me?"
60740Will you tell him, with my compliments, that I greatly admire the behavior of his son?"
60740Would the colonel help straighten it out?
60740Would you like to take a position on the wharf at Balboa?"
60740You are scheduled to play ball for Cristobal, understand?"
60740You are working your passage as a lark?
60740You get that launch and you look for the_ Juan Lopez_, understand?
60740You say you saw this gray- headed beach- comber in Guayaquil one time?
60740You w- want me to help handle it?"
10776A warning?
10776All right?
10776Am I intruding?
10776And if you do go, may I have the honor of accompanying you to the Isthmus?
10776And so these young men saved us-- saved our lives? 10776 And so you''re going to get some Gatun pictures and then quit-- eh?"
10776And take Alcando with us?
10776And these really are the young gentlemen whom I seek?
10776And we have two more locks to go through?
10776And we start up the Canal in the morning?
10776And we''re going to get one of those slides on our films?
10776And were you really looking for us?
10776And who would dare to explode dynamite at the dam?
10776And who would that be?
10776And yet you may go; shall you not?
10776And you are taking pictures now?
10776Another landslide?
10776Are n''t you coming in?
10776Are n''t you glad to know he is n''t a spy, or anything like that?
10776Are we really sinking?
10776Are you able to walk back to the farmhouse where we are boarding?
10776Are you all right?
10776Are you boys going into the jungle?
10776Are you fully recovered, Joe?
10776Are you going with us to California? 10776 Are you hurt?
10776Are you in such a hurry to see them?
10776Are you sure the wires are disconnected, boys?
10776Are you the moving picture boys?
10776Back where?
10776Better get our cameras ready; had n''t we, Blake?
10776But are there really volcanic eruptions down there?
10776But how can you take moving pictures of such small things as ants?
10776But how did you and the other officials hear all this?
10776But how does it do it?
10776But so you have decided to go to the Canal?
10776But what for?
10776But what is it?
10776But where is Blake?
10776But who would want to blow up the dam?
10776But why should Mr. Alcando try to blow up the dam at all?
10776Can you get out-- can you walk?
10776Can you make it?
10776Could he have meant that?
10776Could n''t you if you had a very big flashlight that would last for several minutes?
10776Did anything-- that is, anything that fellow said-- or did-- strike you as being-- well, let''s say-- queer?
10776Did we fall?
10776Did you read the letter all the way through?
10776Do n''t you hear a ticking?
10776Do n''t you think it''s here?
10776Do n''t you wish you had this easy job?
10776Do they eat them?
10776Do you mean a big slide in Culebra Cut?
10776Do you really think so?
10776Do you think-- I mean, would it be possible for me to--"To take some pictures? 10776 Do you-- er-- really have to get very close to get pictures of the big slides?"
10776Dynamite? 10776 Eat''em, or make houses of''em?"
10776Even if you have to make the slide yourself?
10776Feel better now?
10776Flash- light powder? 10776 Get any pictures?"
10776Gone out, you mean?
10776Hand me that other roll of film; will you, please?
10776Hardly enough to cause anyone to commit such a crime as that, do you think?
10776Has n''t Birdie Lee written yet?
10776Has n''t Mabel written to you this week?
10776Have what?
10776Have you any wild beasts in these jungles?
10776How about him?
10776How are we to continue our journey?
10776How are you coming on?
10776How can we help?
10776How can we stop them?
10776How could anything else happen after being squeezed in that kind of a cider press? 10776 How did it happen?"
10776How did it happen?
10776How did you know we were here?
10776How do you feel?
10776How does it come in?
10776How does the Spaniard strike you?
10776How high is it?
10776How long do you think it will be before I can take some views myself?
10776How soon can you be ready to go?
10776How''d your father come to get our letter, Sam?
10776I mean how are you going to stop that runaway, or rescue those fellows?
10776I mean that more slides are likely to occur; are they not?
10776I surely hear that ticking in this berth; do n''t you?
10776I wonder how our films are coming out?
10776I wonder if I can stop him with one shot?
10776I wonder what that meant?
10776I wonder what the''next time''will be?
10776I wonder what we''ll see next?
10776I wonder what''s up?
10776I wonder who it is? 10776 Is he as bad as ever?"
10776Is iguana really good eating?
10776Is it about Panama?
10776Is it fixed?
10776Is something--?
10776Is that so?
10776It comes in from the bottom; does n''t it, Captain Watson?
10776Make of it? 10776 Meat?
10776No, but it is queer; is n''t it?
10776No, but seriously, what do you make of it all?
10776No-- why should we?
10776Not very cheerful; is he?
10776Nothing more suspicious; eh?
10776Now I wonder how that happened?
10776Only how can it be done? 10776 Only,"said Blake to Joe afterward,"why was he in such a hurry to get rid of him, and afraid that we might meet him?"
10776Out there?
10776Over the top?
10776Perhaps that was a--"Who''s getting suspicious now?
10776Queer sort of a chap; is n''t he?
10776Queer? 10776 Remember that time, Blake, when we were filming the volcano, and the ground opened right at your feet?"
10776Seen anything of Alcando''s alarm clock model lately?
10776Shall I read it, Joe?
10776So you think that''s the reason, eh?
10776Strange? 10776 Suppose he does perfect it?
10776Suspicious, you mean?
10776That-- that box--"What about it?
10776The flashlight powder-- I wonder if we can get enough of that?
10776Then we''d better get--"Do you mean by an earthquake?
10776Then you have confirmatory evidence of what my letter says?
10776Then you have n''t altogether gotten over your suspicions of him?
10776Then you wo n''t make any fuss?
10776Was there a misunderstanding in signals?
10776We can use that automatic camera, too; ca n''t we?
10776We have n''t heard whether Mr. Hadley likes our work or not?
10776Well, are you all ready, boys?
10776Well, it might be, and--"And you''re afraid he will get ahead of you in your invention of a focus tube; are n''t you?
10776Well, then, we''ll consider it settled-- we''ll go to Panama?
10776Well, this is n''t exactly the quiet life we looked for in the canal zone; is it, Blake?
10776Well, what are your plans now, boys?
10776Well, what do you think about it all?
10776Well, what do you think of him now?
10776Well, what were you going to say about that collision?
10776Well, what''s next on the programme?
10776Well, when do we start?
10776Well, you have n''t seen anything more suspicious about him; have you?
10776Well?
10776What about an earthquake?
10776What about; that gun business?
10776What are we to do now, Blake? 10776 What are you looking at?"
10776What are you talking about?
10776What can I do?
10776What did he say?
10776What do they do with''em?
10776What do you mean?
10776What do you mean?
10776What do you think of him, anyhow?
10776What for?
10776What happened?
10776What if she has n''t?
10776What in the world do they do that for?
10776What is it?
10776What made you act so funny, Blake, when you picked up that piece of paper?
10776What then?
10776What were you going to say it was that time when I stopped you?
10776What will happen?
10776What would happen if you did hit the chain?
10776What''ll we do?
10776What''s on?
10776What''s that you said?
10776What''s that-- swim the rest of the way,asked Joe,"and have Mr. Alcando make pictures of us?"
10776What''s that?
10776What''s that?
10776What''s that?
10776What''s the matter, Blake, have n''t you anything to say?
10776What''s the matter?
10776What''s the matter?
10776What''s the matter?
10776What''s up now?
10776What''s up?
10776What''s up?
10776What-- what''s that?
10776What?
10776Where are you going?
10776Where can it be? 10776 Where does it go?"
10776Where was this?
10776Where-- where are we?
10776Who is he?
10776Who''s there? 10776 Why did n''t I think of that before, instead of standing here mooning?
10776Why do n''t you ask Mr. Baker to lend you a rig?
10776Why not?
10776Why not?
10776Why?
10776Why?
10776Why?
10776Will we really have to jump overboard?
10776With a flashlight?
10776Yes, but what would cause a slide?
10776Yes, but what?
10776You ca n''t get any pictures in here, I suppose?
10776You did n''t let her out to the full at that; did you?
10776You do n''t mean to say you think this fellow is an international spy; do you? 10776 You have?"
10776You mean the-- dam itself?
10776You mean to take moving pictures of the blowing up of the dam?
10776You met the young Spaniard who had a letter of introduction to you; did you not?
10776You''re the regular early worm this morning; are n''t you?
10776You''ve made up your mind to go to Panama; have n''t you?
10776Alcando?"
10776And did anything more develop about his knowing the captain of that vessel that sunk the_ Nama_?"
10776And it''s here where those big slides have been?"
10776And once in a while you''ll see a--""What''s that?"
10776And where will you have the other?"
10776Anything more about that alarm clock of his?
10776Are there many alligators in this stream?"
10776Are you all right?"
10776Are you not glad?
10776As he started to go away Joe remarked:"Where are you wearing your watch?
10776Blake drew a long breath, and replied, questioningly:"What do you think of it?"
10776But I wonder what we are going to do for a boat now?"
10776But do n''t you hear that noise?"
10776But say, Joe, what sort of a watch have you that ticks so loudly?"
10776But what''s that you''re reading; and what do you mean about being on the jump?"
10776But where is he?"
10776But where is our horse?"
10776CHAPTER II ON THE BRINK"What-- what''s your plan, Blake?"
10776CHAPTER XI ALONG THE CANAL"Blake, did you hear that?"
10776CHAPTER XII ALMOST AN ACCIDENT"What''s that big, long affair, jutting out so far from the locks?"
10776CHAPTER XIII IN THE JUNGLE"What will we do with the cameras, Blake?
10776CHAPTER XXII A WARNING"What is the matter?"
10776Can you walk?"
10776Did I get any pictures?"
10776Do n''t you?"
10776Do you know anyone on board her?"
10776For the runner asked:"You will not fail us?"
10776Funny, though, that we did n''t get any mail; was n''t it?"
10776Get any yourself?"
10776Hadley?"
10776Have you any flash- light powder?"
10776Have you any flashlight powder?"
10776Have you told that Spaniard?"
10776He explained, did he not, that his company wished to show scenes along the line of their railroad, to attract prospective customers?"
10776He will laugh when he finds out his mistake; will he not?"
10776How did Alcando make out?"
10776How did it happen?"
10776How many do you want?"
10776I do n''t want to break the combination; do you?"
10776I say, Blake,"and Joe''s voice took on a confidential tone,"you have n''t noticed anything strange about him, have you?"
10776I suppose you do take big moving pictures-- I mean pictures of big scenes, do you not?"
10776I wonder if we''ve got time?"
10776I wonder what he really did think he was up to, anyhow?"
10776I wonder what it all meant?"
10776I wonder what it is, and why he has it in his bed?"
10776I wonder what we''d better do with it?
10776I wonder where Alcando--?"
10776Is that what you mean, señor-- I should say, sir?"
10776Maybe we''d better get a doctor?"
10776Now when are we to start, how do we go, where shall we make our headquarters and so on?"
10776Say, but is n''t it dark?"
10776So if you''re going--""I think we had better go; do n''t you?"
10776So you are off?"
10776That letter for you?"
10776Then, clearly across the intervening space, came the words:"Are you sure the machine works right?"
10776To tell that Spaniard he could, or could not, go with us?"
10776Trying to get secrets of the United States fortifications at the Canal?"
10776Was it an alarm after all?
10776Well, have you pictures enough?"
10776Well, you wo n''t go without me; will you?"
10776What do you mean?"
10776What do you suppose he meant?"
10776What do you think of him?"
10776What in the world does he mean?"
10776What of it?"
10776What was the matter, anyhow?"
10776What''s the matter with you, anyhow?
10776What''s the matter with you-- oversleep?"
10776When are you going to make the last of the spillway views?"
10776When he did open his lips it was to ask:"Well, what do you think of it, Blake?"
10776Where are you?"
10776Where can he get meat in the jungle, unless he spears a tapir?"
10776Where''s the little camera and case?"
10776Will you do it?"
10776Would Joe and Blake be in time?
10776You mean going to Panama?"
10776You think that curious box is some attachment for a moving picture camera; do you?"
41767A sound travels far in the jungle, and who can say how near we are to those villains we are searching for? 41767 About that,"he agreed,"Well?"
41767Ai n''t it a sight for sore eyes?
41767Almost as big as that of Geneva? 41767 And guessed it was meant for someone down by the sea?"
41767And how did you fix it?
41767And meanwhile pepper''em with the rifles, eh?
41767And that man who fired at you?
41767And the destination of these boxes?
41767And the engine?
41767And the second?
41767And then?
41767And those men we are after?
41767And those?
41767And you are sure that those rascals are here?
41767And you would n''t change, supposing I was to come forward with an offer? 41767 And you''re the chap as went off into the swamps, across a lagoon, along with the Police Major, ai n''t you?"
41767And your men could start at once, and leave without the enemy being the wiser?
41767Another train let loose? 41767 At you?
41767But how can you say from that shower that they are still far ahead?
41767But surely such a tremendous mass is hardly necessary?
41767But what damage has been done, boss?
41767But who could think of such a thing? 41767 But,"said Phineas,"if you knew him why did you not arrest him?
41767But-- but who fired it? 41767 Ca n''t you make her do a little more, my lad?
41767Come plenty soon, eh?
41767Dat motor goin''? 41767 Dat yo, Sam?"
41767Dat?
41767Dead?
41767Den what fo yo dare to leave de missie? 41767 Did n''t I hear tell as you could play a banjo, Jim, and sing a tune when you was axed?"
41767Done any damage? 41767 Drop um in?"
41767Get that painter cast off, Major; and, see here, ca n''t you manage to push her along until I have got the engine going?
41767Got any traps?
41767Hab more, yo fellows?
41767Have I seed anything of a steam launch hereabouts?
41767Hi, yo, Sam, what de matter?
41767Him? 41767 Horses?
41767How are we doing?
41767How did it happen?
41767How do most of these here things happen, siree?
41767How many are there?
41767How many men will you employ?
41767How''d it happen?
41767How''s he shaping?
41767How''s it happened?
41767Howdy? 41767 Howdy?"
41767I suppose your natives will fend for themselves, George?
41767Know anything about engines and suchlike?
41767Lately arrived, eh?
41767Looks cool and nice; do n''t it?
41767None?
41767Now I suppose we can settle down to the ordinary life of those who are besieged?
41767Oh, yo heard dat?
41767One more question; did those rascals see you join us?
41767One of those muzzle- loading gas barrels chucked a shot right at your motor, did it? 41767 Onless what?"
41767Pepper''em nicely, eh, so as to give''em a taste of what''s coming?
41767Queer, ai n''t they?
41767Ready?
41767Ready?
41767Ready?
41767Ready?
41767Sah, what for? 41767 Sam not able to follow track?
41767Say, siree, ken you sing any?
41767See dat? 41767 She has gone too?
41767She ran well?
41767Supposing she does n''t come in; supposing those men discover us, smell a rat, eh?
41767That you, youngster?
41767The Major hit? 41767 The girl?"
41767The question is this: ought we to attempt a rush? 41767 Then I can come?"
41767Then the high level has fewer difficulties?
41767Then what do you propose? 41767 Then you wo n''t be able to use masonry?"
41767Wall?
41767Wall?
41767Was it all imagination?
41767Wat dat?
41767Wat you say, sir?
41767Well?
41767Well?
41767Well?
41767Whar yo got to, boy? 41767 What dat say?"
41767What dat, sah?
41767What dat?
41767What den?
41767What do we get when all''s ended?
41767What do you mean?
41767What fo you make that to- do?
41767What happens? 41767 What have you to say, Major?"
41767What is the next movement? 41767 What keeps you?
41767What luck, George?
41767What next?
41767What now?
41767What was that?
41767What was the object of firing those shots?
41767What yo not obey for?
41767What you say, Chinaboy?
41767What''s that? 41767 What''s that?"
41767What''s that?
41767What''s that?
41767What''s this about a lagoon?
41767What''s to be done?
41767What''s to be done?
41767What''s your opinion?
41767What? 41767 Where?
41767Who am yo?
41767Who could have done such a miserable and wicked thing?
41767Who dar? 41767 Who''s he?"
41767Why trouble to go along to New York?
41767Will the men fire on them?
41767Yer know how to fire a furnace?
41767Yes, where? 41767 Yes?"
41767Yo ask dis man here to throw Tom overboard? 41767 Yo hear dat, massa?
41767Yo hurt yoself?
41767Yo not hear de cap''n say yo to drop all knives? 41767 Yo say I hab hard head?
41767Yo tink me not on de track?
41767Yo''s tried to kill Massa Jim, heh? 41767 You could n''t see it, surely?"
41767You do n''t happen to have got fixed on a special job yet awhile?
41767You found something? 41767 You heard about him, Major?"
41767You ride to join Pedro after a while then?
41767You sure, missee? 41767 You there?"
41767You will follow, of course?
41767You would not ask me to leave this place allowing something to remain unfinished? 41767 You''ll not disappoint me, will you?
41767You''re chief of the ship that''s foundered?
41767You''re stayin''here?
41767You''ve done a bit of that, then?
41767You''ve found something? 41767 You''ve handled tools and machinery?"
41767You''ve heard of those shops''way over at Gorgona?
41767Young, ai n''t he?
41767A dozen diggers sent scuttling?"
41767A man can keep watch aboard her while the rest of the party turn in; how''s that, Jim?"
41767A shot under the wheels of a passenger coach?
41767Ah, you would, would you?"
41767Ai n''t I been gassing?
41767Ai n''t he seen what''s happening?"
41767Ai n''t that land ahead?"
41767Ai n''t we going nearer?"
41767Ai n''t you a pal o''Harry''s?"
41767And Tom-- what did his expression show?
41767And knocked a hole clean through the water jacket?
41767And talking of vegetarians reminds me of myself; you remember I was down with fever?"
41767And what resulted?
41767And you-- you have made full arrangements with the boatman?"
41767Are you for runnin''in over the points out of the way?"
41767Are you game to come?"
41767Are your party too tired to march in the morning?"
41767Barton?"
41767But first, has anyone seen a stranger about here to- day?"
41767But how to do it?
41767But jest step out of the canal zone, and what do you find?
41767But one little matter occurs to me: this farm is near the works, eh?
41767But supposing they awake, supposing Jaime or one of the others suddenly sits up and lets drive with a shooter?"
41767But what are the orders?"
41767But what now?
41767But what yo do supposin''dey discober yo?"
41767But who could be angry with Tom?
41767But who could really read those features?
41767But would they?
41767But yo gib him back when yo finished?
41767But yo see, yo China boy; me soon come up wid dis fellow, and den skin um alive, cook um, see?"
41767But, first, are they likely to leave us?"
41767Can she keep up this pace much longer?"
41767Can they push on towards those natives?"
41767Can you believe, I had the greatest difficulty to keep Ching with me?
41767Ching, bring the lamp; perhaps there''s another we can have?"
41767Could it be true?
41767Dat missie; yo see how small it am?
41767De master ill?"
41767Dere: ai n''t dat a lagoon?
41767Did yer get to the telephone?"
41767Do n''t he deserve it?"
41767Do you hear that?
41767Do you want him yet awhile?"
41767Eben a big, fat nigger same as you, Tom, can see dat?"
41767Eh, boys?"
41767Eh?
41767Eh?
41767Eh?"
41767Eh?"
41767Eh?"
41767Eh?"
41767Fine dat, eh?
41767For why?
41767Gasolene?"
41767George, how many of your men are armed with guns?"
41767Have either of you a suggestion to offer?"
41767Have you ever heard excited men cheer, men who had hardly expected to be alive at that moment?
41767He know right well what him up to; but what yo say to dat, and to dat?
41767He only wants taking?"
41767Her people will have had time to grasp its full significance, and guess then the question will not be, as now,''Where is the Panama Canal?
41767How do you know that?"
41767How far behind them do you reckon we are?"
41767How is it that you have turned up right away at the very instant when help is wanted?
41767How long will it take them to arrive?"
41767How much do you think you''re going to earn on that digger?"
41767How''d you care to stay along here and have a lesson?
41767How''d you like to run one of the inspection motor trolleys?
41767How''s it to be done?"
41767How''s that for a tree?"
41767How''s that gentleman?"
41767How''s that?
41767How''s that?"
41767How''s that?"
41767How''s your own wound?"
41767How?
41767I suppose you''ll follow?"
41767Indeed it looked very much as if the stranger would intercept their passage, and then-- what was the prospect?
41767Is Massa Jim right and well?"
41767Is everyone with us?"
41767Is that the skipper?"
41767It do take eberyting, do n''t it, Major, sah?"
41767It is connected by telephone?"
41767It was bad luck, lad; where did he go ashore?"
41767It''s a teaser, ai n''t it?"
41767It''s going to pay?"
41767Jaime and his crew, I suppose?"
41767Massa Jim, what yo doin''dat for?
41767Me hold yo tight, eh?
41767Missee, what you say dey doin''?
41767Need the reader wonder that the return of the party caused a huge sensation?
41767No?
41767Not harmed the engine, I hope?"
41767Not see um?
41767Now then, siree?"
41767Now yo dere, in de corner, what yo squintin''outer de door for?
41767Now, are we ready?
41767Now, can one pass by it?"
41767Now, sir, you''ve had to do with motors; can you manage for us?"
41767Now, what about the horses?"
41767Now, where is a likely place?"
41767Obviously they were making in that direction to join hands with them, and, once there, how was Sadie to be recovered?
41767Phineas?"
41767Please state who you are?"
41767Push ahead, Major?
41767Run, did I say?
41767S''pose she drag yo down?
41767Sam there?
41767Savvy dat?
41767Savvy?"
41767Say now, what''s it for?"
41767Say, Jim, how''d you care to try your hand at it?"
41767Say, Jim, how''s the motor running?"
41767Say, Sam, you could find the office in Colon?"
41767Say, Tomkins, supposing we give over firing?"
41767Say, if I apply for you, sir, will you take the work?"

41767We leave Tom to get a grip of the launch itself, and pull her in to the side; got that?"
