6904	That is on the boundary between Peru and Bolivia?
6904	That was n''t a bluff, then? 6904 Then he has only fourteen days in which to get back to Asuncion and make a large payment?"
6904	Then how are we going to find out where this Lyman person is?

6904	Well,Jimmie said, as he looked gloomily at the discouraged Jackson,"what do you think of this?
6904	Well,he said, turning on one of the electric bulbs so as to see the face of his passenger,"what do you think of the Nelson?
6904	Well,insisted the boy,"why did n''t you browse around and find the white man he left here?
6904	Well? 6904 Well?"

6904	Why not drop back?
6904	Why not go and see?
6904	Why not leave some of''em out?
6904	Why should he remain here? 6904 Will you say as much for the savages who are with you in this dirty game?"
6904	With that mass of clouds drifting over the sky?
6904	Wonder if he''s going back to New York?
6904	Wonder what Collins will do now?
6904	Would you have recognized him if it had been Lyman?
6904	Yes, I know, but have you ever been over the Andes?
6904	Yes, but who set him at work?
6904	Yes,Leroy said, his manner showing apprehension as well as anger,"but how the Old Scratch did he get his knowledge, of what, we are about to do?
6904	You came in an aeroplane yourself, did n''t you?
6904	You came in that other aeroplane?
6904	You have n''t heard about the attack on our aeroplane, then?
6904	You have n''t seen him?
6904	You heard, then?
6904	You know the kind of shoes the men who work in mines wear? 6904 You mean to hide from the other airship?"
6904	You mean,''Be prepared''?
6904	You meant to capture me tonight?
6904	You refer to Lyman?
6904	You refer to a person, or corporation, waiting to buy the concession?
6904	You remember how I came to be here? 6904 You saw the airship come down?"
6904	You see what they are doing?
6904	You were keeping him a prisoner until his concession should lapse?
6904	After a short silence the fellow asked:"What has become of Collins?"
6904	Again, why had Thomas Q. Collins been left there in the wilderness?
6904	And I''ll bet this is Jimmie?
6904	And if she was n''t sneaking about after us, what would she be hanging up there in the sky for?
6904	And this military chief?
6904	And what''s he trying to do, anyway?
6904	Are you going to tell us where the tent is, Collins?"
6904	As for the falls and rapids, do you expect any stream to creep down from that great plateau without jumping off occasionally?"
6904	But how do you know that rippling sheet of water off there,"swinging an arm to the south,"is the Madeira river?
6904	But how?
6904	By the way, what was the cause of the attack on the aeroplane?"
6904	CHAPTER XII A BRIBE OF HALF A MILLION"What do you want to talk about?"
6904	CHAPTER XIII THE NELSON IN THE SKY"Well,"Ned called back, as the new arrivals shouted down from the ledge,"what do you want?"
6904	Can we make speed with that busted wing?"
6904	Collins hesitated a moment and then asked:"Why ca n''t I come to you and sit down?
6904	Collins snarled out some impertinent reply, and Ned asked:"Did they bring in a tent?"
6904	Do you know him?"
6904	Do you know if we are near any town?"
6904	Do you know where Lyman is?"
6904	Do you suppose we can find a ship going to the mouth of the Amazon early in the morning?"
6904	Do you understand?"
6904	Got a good hold, there?
6904	Had he met with an accident and was he lying, crushed from a long fall, in some mountain canyon?
6904	Had it loosened the obstructing log so that the boat could pass out into the Beni river?
6904	Had the concussion damaged the propellers so that the trip up the valley of the Amazon would have to be abandoned?
6904	Had the cunning savages obstructed the little stream while the lads were busy building their fire and observing their menagerie, as they called it?
6904	Had the pursuing aeroplane overtaken him and destroyed or captured the Nelson?
6904	Had this system been resorted to?
6904	Harry,"he continued,"who does this boat belong to?"
6904	He therefore greeted him cordially and asked:"Something interesting going on in the city?
6904	How are you going to carry Lyman, Jackson and me?"
6904	How did you manage to geezle her?"
6904	How does she get into the air so quick after we cut loose?
6904	How far is it to the place where you left Jimmie and this man Jackson?"
6904	How long will it take Pedro to get back?"
6904	How many times did you have to take the Black Bear to pieces?"
6904	I wonder how he knew we were here?"
6904	I wonder what it can be?"
6904	If you had one more can of beans, do you think you could help us hunt him up?"
6904	Instead he asked one:"Ever see that fellow before?"
6904	Is that it?"
6904	It was the hostile ship, sure enough, but why had she abandoned pursuit of the Nelson?
6904	Jack watched them from the prow for a time and then asked:"What''s that they are throwing into the river?"
6904	Jimmie and Pedro must be about somewhere, the boy thought, as he considered the most practical way of reaching the valley, but where were they?
6904	Jimmie muttered"Have you boys got anything to eat?"
6904	Leaning back in the chair he had taken, he asked:"The curiosity of the people got the better of their courtesy, eh?
6904	Leaving the captives with this cheering(?)
6904	Let them soak him?"
6904	Now what do you think?"
6904	Now would n''t that stop a clock?"
6904	Now, what can we do to keep him from being murdered?"
6904	Now, what''s your name, and what are you boys doin''here with this old sky- ship?"
6904	Now, where''s Jimmie and Leroy?"
6904	Oh, what''s the use?
6904	On the shelf again, Ned asked:"Where did you see a motor car?"
6904	Or was this just natural curiosity?
6904	Peach, is n''t she?"
6904	Say, will you give me a ride in that machine of yours?
6904	Say, wo n''t it be fine to see good old Ned Nestor again?
6904	Say, wo n''t they give us the laugh in New York?
6904	Say, would n''t that be a peach?
6904	See that big chief over there?
6904	Shall I come to you, or will you come to me?"
6904	Similar to the one you gave me not long ago?"
6904	Suppose we begin packing?"
6904	Suppose we toss a stick where it will do little damage and still attract their attention from the boat?
6904	Suppose you go over there and see what the chances are?"
6904	That is what he came in here for, is n''t it-- to hide some one he wanted out of the way?"
6904	That right?"
6904	That would n''t be funny, would it?"
6904	The Wolf will carry us all right, I suppose?"
6904	The tanks were full, were they not?"
6904	The two men talked shop for a moment, and then Collins asked:"Where have you been?"
6904	The words were spoken in pretty good Spanish, and Ned turned quickly and asked:"You speak Spanish then?"
6904	They have captured him again?"
6904	Thomas Q. Collins regarded Ned steadily for a moment, his brusque, salesmanship manner all gone, and then asked:"''Where are you going from here?"
6904	Understand?
6904	Understand?
6904	Understand?
6904	Well, what about it?"
6904	What I want to know is this: Did the driver seem anyway excited when you speeded over this way?
6904	What about it?"
6904	What about it?"
6904	What about that?"
6904	What difference does it make to him if we do go to South America in an aeroplane?"
6904	What do you mean by tying me up and then wrecking the machine?"
6904	What do you think of it?"
6904	What do you think of that?
6904	What do you think of the idea?"
6904	What do you think of the notion, pard?"
6904	What further mischief has the fellow in mind?"
6904	What is it?"
6904	What might your name be, pard?"
6904	What shall we do?"
6904	What''s your name?
6904	What''s your name?"
6904	What?"
6904	What?"
6904	What?"
6904	What?"
6904	Where from?"
6904	Where had Jimmie gone with the machine?
6904	Where had Ned taken the Indian up, and why had the latter volunteered to render this assistance?
6904	Where is he?"
6904	Where was the machine, and how in the name of all that was wonderful had it been brought to that rough country?
6904	Where you stopping?"
6904	Where''s Collins?"
6904	Who brought about the release?"
6904	Who set you boys at work on this case?"
6904	Who''ll keep awake?"
6904	Why did n''t you come down then?"
6904	Why do n''t you do something?"
6904	Why does n''t she come down to town, like we did?"
6904	Why had she spied upon her without in any way interfering?
6904	Why had the Vixen always followed the Nelson?
6904	Why not set fire to some big dry tree and let her blaze up?"
6904	Y.?"
6904	You found Lyman''s coat, did n''t you?"
6904	You know about the revolution in China, and all that?
6904	You must have seen them riding away?"
6904	You see what they are going to do?"
