What
's
it
to
be
,
chief
?
'
I
asked
.
"
'
I
'm
going
to
buck
centre
,
'
says
Henry
,
in
his
football
idioms
.
'
There
is
n't
a
tackle
in
the
lot
of
them
.
Follow
me
close
,
and
rush
the
game
.
'
"
Then
that
cultured
Red
Man
exhaled
an
arrangement
of
sounds
with
his
mouth
that
made
the
Latin
aggregation
pause
,
with
thoughtfulness
and
hesitations
.
The
matter
of
his
proclamation
seemed
to
be
a
cooperation
of
the
Carlisle
war-whoop
with
the
Cherokee
college
yell
.
He
went
at
the
chocolate
team
like
a
bean
out
of
a
little
boy
's
nigger
shooter
.
His
right
elbow
laid
out
the
governor
man
on
the
gridiron
,
and
he
made
a
lane
the
length
of
the
crowd
so
wide
that
a
woman
could
have
carried
a
step-ladder
through
it
without
striking
against
anything
.
All
Mellinger
and
me
had
to
do
was
to
follow
.
"
It
took
us
just
three
minutes
to
get
out
of
that
street
around
to
military
headquarters
,
where
Mellinger
had
things
his
own
way
.
A
colonel
and
a
battalion
of
bare-toed
infantry
turned
out
and
went
back
to
the
scene
of
the
musicale
with
us
,
but
the
conspirator
gang
was
gone
.
But
we
recaptured
the
phonograph
with
honours
of
war
,
and
marched
back
to
the
cuartel
with
it
playing
'
All
Coons
Look
Alike
to
Me
.
'
"
The
next
day
Mellinger
takes
me
and
Henry
to
one
side
,
and
begins
to
shed
tens
and
twenties
.
"
'
I
want
to
buy
that
phonograph
,
'
says
he
.
'
I
liked
that
last
tune
it
played
at
the
soirée
.
'
"
'
This
is
more
money
than
the
machine
is
worth
,
'
says
I.
"
"
Tis
government
expense
money
,
'
says
Mellinger
.
'
The
government
pays
for
it
,
and
it
's
getting
the
tune-grinder
cheap
.
'
"
Me
and
Henry
knew
that
pretty
well
.
We
knew
that
it
had
saved
Homer
P.
Mellinger
's
graft
when
he
was
on
the
point
of
losing
it
;
but
we
never
let
him
know
we
knew
it
.
