the other two with which l only indirectly con-
nected, I'd try to answer any questions they cared

of sitting down to Washington presently to see if
l couldn't buy a few warships from the Navy De-
partment; for of us had it in mind intinated
vaguely, that perhaps we'd fetch the Braganza
family back from Portugal and put 'em back on
the throne of Brazil. Tossed it out in a hestating
kind of way, too, that Castro and had been talk
ing lot lately about the partition of Honduras,
and that maybe WEI get at that Job after the rest
OF the revolutions were cleaned up and laid away.

wrought upon me, this be-
siegement by the gang of
aching-to-be adventures in
tropic lands,-and hardly any
of 'em had ever adventured
any farther from the New
York cobbles than Coney
Island or Hoboken,-that l
sought to flag them by craft
and deceit. On the second
day, when about a dozen of
them had me hemmed and
were gradually backing me
into a corner of my room, l
tried to tell them that l was
merely a manufacturer of toy
balloons, passementerle, and
fish horns for the Chile and
Argentine trade, and that the
nearest I'd ever come to see
ing a revolution was when a
baseball umpire had given a
punk decision against the
home team in Pentwater,
Michigan. But l couldn't get
away with it. They wouldn't
believe me.
