A Chinese houseboy thinking that life was not worth the living, made an attempt to drown himself on Monday. He boarded the Morning Star to Kowloon and when the ferry was half way across, he made the plunge.

The alarm was at once raised and the ferry stopped, but by then the would-be-suicide had discovered that a place in

Davy Jones Locker" was not what be wanted. He began to swim towards a sampan. The farry took the man aboard and brought him over to Kowloon,
