     Shortly he went to sleep with   his swollen face  fallen forward on   his 

chest。 

     The women drank and laughed�察�not heeding the slumbering man in the 

corner。 Finally he lurched forward and fell groaning to the floor。 

     The women screamed in disgust and drew back their skirts。 

     ;Come ahn�察─�cried one�察�starting up angrily�察 �let's get out of here。; 

     The   woman   of   brilliance   and   audacity   stayed   behind�察  �taking   up   the

snore from the recumbent man caused her to turn and look down at him。 

     She laughed。      ;What a damn fool�察─�she said�察�and went。 

     The    smoke      from    the  lamps     settled   heavily    down     in   the  little 

compartment�察  �obscuring   the   way   out。        The   smell   of   oil�察  �stifling   in   its 

intensity�察�pervaded the air。        The   wine from an overturned glass   dripped 

softly down upon the blotches on the man's neck。

                               Chapter XVIII 



       In a partitioned´off section of a saloon sat a man with a half dozen 

women�察�gleefully laughing�察�hovering about him。                  The man had arrived at 

that stage of drunkenness where affection is felt for the universe。 

     ;I'm   good   f'ler�察  �girls�察─  �he   said�察  �convincingly。 ;I'm   damn   good   f'ler。 

An'body treats me right�察�I allus trea's zem right�            �See�拭─�

     The women nodded their heads approvingly。                 ;To be sure�察─�they cried 

out in hearty chorus。         ;You're the kind of a man we like�察�Pete。               You're 

outa sight�     �What yeh goin' to buy this time�察�dear�拭─�

     ;An't'ing   yehs   wants�察  �damn   it�察─  �said   the   man   in   an   abandonment   of 

good   will。    His   countenance   shone   with   the   true   spirit   of   benevolence。 

He was in the proper mode of missionaries。                 He would have fraternized 

with     obscure    Hottentots。      And     above     all�察 �he   was   overwhelmed        in 

tenderness for his friends�察�who were all illustrious。 

     ;An't'ing   yehs   wants�察  �damn   it�察─  �repeated   he�察  �waving   his   hands   with 

beneficent   recklessness。       ;I'm   good   f'ler�察  �girls�察  �an'   if   an'body   treats   me 

right   Ihere�察─  �called   he   through   an   open   door   to   a   waiter�察   �bring   girls 

drinks�察�damn it。       What 'ill yehs have�察�girls�拭         �An't'ing yehs wants�察�damn 

it� ─�

     The waiter glanced in with the disgusted look of the man who serves 

intoxicants   for   the   man   who   takes   too   much   of   them。     He   nodded   his 

head shortly at the order from each individual�察�and went。 

     ;Damn it�察─�said the man�察 �we're havin' heluva time。                 I like you girls� �

Damn'd if I don't�       �Yer right sort�     �See�拭─�

     He spoke at length and with feeling�察�concerning the excellencies of his 

assembled friends。 

     ;Don'   try   pull   man's   leg�察  �but   have   a   heluva   time� �Das   right�   �Das 

way   teh   do�    �Now�察  �if   I   sawght   yehs   tryin'   work   me   fer   drinks�察  �wouldn' 

buy damn t'ing�        �But yer right sort�察�damn it�         �Yehs know how ter treat a 

f'ler�察�an' I stays by yehs 'til spen' las' cent�       �Das right�     �I'm good f'ler an' I 

knows when an'body treats me right� ─�

     Between the times of the arrival and departure of the waiter�察�the man 

discoursed to the women on the tender regard he felt for all living things。 

He laid stress upon the purity of his motives in all dealings with men in 

the   world   and   spoke   of   the   fervor   of   his   friendship   for   those   who   were 

amiable。      Tears welled slowly from his eyes。            His voice quavered when 

he spoke to them。 

     Once when the waiter was about to depart with an empty tray�察�the man 

drew a coin from his pocket and held it forth。 

     ;Here�察─�said he�察�quite magnificently�察 �here's quar'。; 

     The waiter kept his hands on his tray。 

     ;I don' want yer money�察─�he said。 

     The other put forth the coin with tearful insistence。 

     ;Here�察�damn it�察─�cried he�察 �tak't�         �Yer damn goo' f'ler an' I wan' yehs 

tak't� ─�

     ;Come�察�come�察�now�察─�said the waiter�察�with the sullen air of a man who 

is forced into giving advice。        ;Put yer mon in yer pocket�          �Yer loaded an' 

yehs on'y makes a damn fool of yerself。; 

     As the latter passed out of the door the man turned pathetically to the 

women。 

     ;He don' know I'm damn goo' f'ler�察─�cried he�察�dismally。 

     ;Never you mind�察�Pete�察�dear�察─�said a woman of brilliance and audacity�察�

laying her hand with great affection upon his arm。              ;Never you mind�察�old 

boy�     �We'll stay by you�察�dear� ─�

     ;Das ri'�察─�cried the man�察�his face lighting up at the soothing tones of 

the woman's   voice。       ;Das   ri'�察  �I'm  damn goo'   f'ler   an'   w'en   anyone   trea's 

me ri'�察�I treats zem ri'�     �Shee� ─�

     ;Sure� ─  �cried   the   women。     ;And   we're   not   goin'   back   on   you�察  �old 

man。; 

     The    man    turned    appealing    eyes   to   the  woman      of  brilliance   and 

audacity。     He felt that if he could be convicted of a contemptible action 

he would die。 

     ;Shay�察�Nell�察�damn it�察�I allus trea's yehs shquare�察�didn' I�拭            �I allus been 

goo' f'ler wi' yehs�察�ain't I�察�Nell�拭─�

     ;Sure you have�察�Pete�察─�assented the woman。                She delivered an oration 

to her   companions。        ;Yessir�察 �that's   a   fact。 Pete's   a   square   fellah�察  �he is。 

He never goes back on a friend。             He's the right kind an' we stay by him�察�

don't we�察�girls�拭─�

     ;Sure�察─  �they   exclaimed。      Looking   lovingly   at   him   they   raised   their 

glasses and drank his health。 

     ;Girlsh�察─  �said   the   man�察  �beseechingly�察   �I   allus   trea's   yehs   ri'�察  �didn'   I�拭�

     ;Sure�察─�again they chorused。 

     ;Well�察─�said he finally�察 �le's have nozzer drink�察�zen。; 

     ;That's   right�察─  �hailed   a   woman�察   �that's   right。   Yer   no   bloomin'   jay� �

Yer spends yer money like a man。             Dat's right。; 

     The man pounded the table with his quivering fists。 

     ;Yessir�察─�he cried�察�with deep earnestness�察�as if someone disputed him。 

;I'm damn goo' f'ler�察�an' w'en anyone trea's me ri'�察�I allus trea'sle's have 

nozzer drink。; 

     He began to beat the wood with his glass。 

     ;Shay�察─  �howled   he�察  �growing   suddenly   impatient。         As   the   waiter   did 

not then come�察�the man swelled with wrath。 

     ;Shay�察─�howled he again。 

     The waiter appeared at the door。 

     ;Bringsh drinksh�察─�said the man。 

     The waiter disappeared with the orders。 

     ;Zat   f'ler   damn   fool�察─  �cried   the   man。  ;He   insul'   me�    �I'm   ge'man� �

Can' stan' be insul'�      �I'm goin' lickim when comes� ─�

     ;No�察�no�察─�cried the women�察�crowding about and trying to subdue him。 

;He's    all  right�   �He    didn't   mean    anything�     �Let    it  go�   �He's    a  good 

fellah� ─�

     ;Din' he insul' me�拭─�asked the man earnestly。 

     ;No�察─�said they。      ;Of course he didn't�        �He's all right� ─�

     ;Sure he didn' insul' me�拭─�demanded the man�察�with deep anxiety in his 

voice。 

     ;No�察   �no�    �We     know    him�    �He's    a  good    fellah。   He     didn't  mean

     ;Well�察�zen�察─�said the man�察�resolutely�察 �I'm go' 'pol'gize� ─�

     When the waiter came�察�the man struggled to the middle of the floor。 

     ;Girlsh shed you insul' me�         �I shay damn lie�       �I 'pol'gize� ─�

     ;All right�察─�said the waiter。 

     The   man   sat   down。    He   felt   a   sleepy  but strong   desire   to   straighten 

things out and have a perfect understanding with everybody。 

     ;Nell�察�I allus trea's yeh shquare�察�din' I�拭       �Yeh likes me�察�don' yehs�察�Nell�拭�

     ;Yeh knows I'm stuck on yehs�察�don' yehs�察�Nell�拭─�

     ;Sure�察─�she repeated�察�carelessly。 

     Overwhelmed by a spasm of drunken adoration�察�he drew two or three 

bills from his pocket�察�and�察�with the trembling fingers of an offering priest�察�

laid them on the table before the woman。 

     ;Yehs knows�察�damn it�察�yehs kin have all got�察�'cause I'm stuck on yehs�察�
