time when he shall be returned to the
land of his fathers, yesterday for the
first time in his uneducated career
heard the story of Thanksgiving day.
1t had much effect upon Zip. From
one to another of his fellow municipal
parasites he went discussing the great
day. AS he went along he cleaned bits
of information here and there regard
ing the festivities usually observed on
that day. The prospects of his own
celebration loomed up brightly.
Zip smiled, smiled as sweetly to him
self as it is possible for a Celestial to
smile. But when it was quietly whis =
pered in his ear by his lifelong friend
and confidante, Pat Dunraven, that the
inmates of the county jail would be
the guests of the city on that day his
anticipations reached a hilarious crisis
Zip cried out in his joy. To have
turkey, and at the governments ex-
pense, was more than he could under
stand. 1t quickly occurred to him that
Pat was falsifying reports, and dark
clouds began to creep over his with
ering countenance. The more he
thought of Pats" statements the less
he believed them. Suddenly he de-
cided that his bosom friend had de-

liberately lied to him and resolved to
avenge the wrong.
Like the gradual but rapid change
from bright day in May to one of
fiercest storm the inward workings of
Zip were registered on his outward ap-
pearance. Zip gave Pat long and
suspicious look. His pointed weak
chin f1attened out to one of determina-
ton. Then he retired to his cell for a
moments thought.
Zip emerged rolling cigarette. As
Pat strolled by Zip blew vicious
mouthful of smoke into his friends
face. With it came a warning grunt
of anger, which Pat we'll understood.
Pat and Zip were never known to ar
que over misunderstanding. All ques-
tions with them were settled by the
physical strength of one or the other.
And this occasion was to be no excep-
tion to their rule.
Quick as a flash Pat smote Zip full
in the face, binding the Celestial with
shower of burning ashes from his
cigarette. The next minute all was
citement, and cries for help in two
languages rang out and re-echoed
throughout the long corridors of the
prison. Pats allies were on the scene
in a moment and the former beaming
Mongolian was quickly beaten into a
state which permitted him to merely
lie on the cold floor and squeal.
Hearing the commotion and the cries
of terror, Warden White, with several
of his TRUSTEES. rushed to the battle
field armed with buckets of water. The
belligerents rapidly took to their re-
spective cells. When Pat took in
voice of the damages inflicted by the
Chinese he found huge piece of flesh
missing from his left arm. Pat was
set to work mopping up the elements
which saved either his life or Yip's.

asked one of the prisoners.

CAPTAIN MIsTooK LIGHT
Thought Buoy of the Rocks Was ST
Malo Beacon
b. Associated Press.

b. Associated Press
PARIS, Nov. 20.-Special reports re-
ceived here of the wreck of the steamer
Hilda, which left Southampton Friday
night for st. Malo, France, and was
totally wrecked ON the Les Portes reef,
outside Jardin lighthouse, Saturday
night, with the loss of over 100 lives,
give a graphic description of the dis
aster. Owing to the rough sea, to-
gether with a thick snow storm, the
captain of the Hilda probably took the
buoy light of the rocks for the st.
Malo lighthouse. He gave signals which
were not seen by harbor employees and
then the steamer proceeded slowly to-
wards the light. When the Hilda
struck the rocks the steamers boilers
exploded and she was cut in two, CIV
ing the passengers no time to save
their lives. Seven bodies wearing life
belts were stranded off the village of
st. Cast. The coast near st. Malo is
covered with wreckage and some cat
tle
Two-thirds of the Hida's passengers
were French farmers returning to
France with heavy sums of gold for
the yearly harvest of potatoes. 9th
ers were English families who were
going to spend the winter at Dinard.
The wreck lies on the beach three miles
off st. Malo, showing only her main
mast and forecastle.
A correspondent of the Matin went
to the scene of the wreck on gov
ernment steamer with the local Off
cials. They picked up five bodies which
were entangled in the rigging of the
Hida. The bodies presented a dread
full spectacle, with arms and legs
twisted in all directions and hands
torn with desperate struggling.
