SHORT STORY,

(Continued from page 3). that stuff about ladies getting in wrong. Those aren't the words you want to use. Nothing like that. You've got to be dignified. You've got to be repressed, as you might say. What do you want to go queoring yourself for, the first chance you get to not refined ?" Half the night he mused and rode, under a waxing

moon.

The missionary dontor received him, in striped pajamas, at one in the morning; "dressed the wounds of the wizoned one; and then led Jimmy into a comforts #ble library and drew up a Morris chair to the lamp-lighted table.

"You'll have a bed here," he said courteously.

Jimmy shook his head, sitting on the edge of the chair. "No thanke. I can't. I'll just rost the animals a little, if you don't mind, and start back within the hour."

The physician looked thought- fol. "You are traveling, hard," he said:

"I-why, you see, I left a well; my wife-back there ou the main road," explained Jimmy, suddenly realizing that such frantic hisste is a thing to be no counted for in China,"

The physician gave a little start. "Your wife!" Jimmy nodded. "But do you think it safe to bring a woman out here at this

time ?"

"Why not?" Jimmy looked

blank.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, SATURDAY, MARCH

LAST NIGHT'S CONCERT.

Members of the Y.M.C.A. ·

as Entertainers.

Tho City Hall was well-filled last night when the members of the Young Men's Christian Associ ation, with the aid of friends and the band of the M. M. S. Minotaur, gave a very creditable entertain- His Excellency the ment. Governor, Sir Francis Henry May, accompanied by Laily May and Miss May, was present.

"The first part of the programme took the ordinary concert form, and the second portion was given over to the Christy Minstrel Troupe, composed of members of tho

Association under whose auspices the entertaintment was held. Tho orchestra played several solections and the items were so well arranged" that each subso- quent pieco was superior to its prodeassor, and the execution called for warmer applause at every roudering.",
