As Mr. King was removed from B !j 1 the position of sanitary official of this city on H if r account of incompetency and neglect of duty, H !

How did the Tribune sleuth happen to overlook that? Of course, though, a.few minor details were sure to elude that greatest great-est of Hawkshaws.

"Me and me pard's been wit de show ever since Diavolo toined de first trick. Boostin'? Well, maybe you ain't kind of dumb in de guesser. I guess me and my pard ain't about de whole show. We fixes evert'ing up so it looks as smooth as de deck of de Oregon, and so evert'ing looks plenty good to de goils." "Dere goes me partner now. I guess he ain't about as smooth as de eart' perduces. We wus livin' in a flat in de East side dat would have made Woid McAllister look like trees against a ace full. Well, me partner went out to do de links one night, and he shore done 'em proper. When he comes back he wus a sight dat would .make Chuck Conners leave he bend. Say, he didn't have enough clothes on to cover de queen ol spades in a faro deck. What does dat guy do? We has to get on de ties in de mornin' and dat was his on'y suit. He mak.es a detower of dat flat; he gits a pair of pants out of one guy's rooms; toins'de trick for socks in anoder; goes Iro de room of anudder come-on for a coat and vest and de ripest tie you ever seen, and in ten minutes we was ready for de joiney." "Say, I guess dat wasn't swell, no?" A. K. N. t v |
