A most curious looking animal
may be seen at the ferry, which
some of the customs guards cap
tured-not a smuggler, but a queer
looking creature, something like an
ape, vet altogether unlike any
known species. 1t gave the officers
quite a scare when it first made its
appearance, but they were game
and after a severe struggle caught
the strange visitor and tied him.
He is kept a prisoner, but isbecom-
ing tame very fast, and will eat
most anything that is given to it.
A great many persons have visited
the ferry to see the new pet of the
guards.
