Motor Matt's Double Trouble
OR,
THE LAST OF THE HOODOO.
By the author of MOTOR MATT.
Matt King , otherwise Motor Matt. Joe McGlory , a young cowboy who proves himself a lad of worth and character, and whose eccentricities are all on the humorous side. A good chum to tie to—a point Motor Matt is quick to perceive. Tsan Ti , Mandarin of the Red Button, who continues to fall into tragic difficulties, and to send in four-eleven alarms for the assistance of Motor Matt. Sam Wing , San Francisco bazaar-man, originally from Canton, and temporarily in the employ of Tsan Ti. By following his evil thoughts he causes much trouble for the mandarin, and, incidentally, for the motor boys. Philo Grattan , a rogue of splendid abilities, who aims to steal a fortune and ends in being brought to book for the theft of a motor car. Pardo , a pal of Grattan. Neb Hogan , a colored brother whose mule, stolen by Sam Wing, plays a part of considerable importance. Neb himself engineers a surprise at the end of the story, and goes his way so overwhelmed with good luck that he is unable to credit the evidence of his senses. Banks and Gridley , officers of the law who are searching for the stolen blue motor. Boggs , a farmer who comes to the aid of Motor Matt with energy and courage. Bunce , a sailor with two good eyes who, for some object of his own, wears a green patch and prefers to have the public believe he is one-eyed. A pal of Grattan, who is caught in the same net that entangles the rest of the ruby thieves.
THE RED JEWEL.
Craft and greed showed in the eyes of the hatchet-faced Chinaman. He seemed to have been in deep slumber in the car seat, but the drowsiness was feigned. The train was not five minutes out of the town of Catskill before he had roused himself, wary and wide-awake, and looked across the aisle. His look and manner gave evidence that he was meditating some crime.
