Kitty Blair lived In one of the states Where Thanksgiving dawns upon cold days, and often the roads at this time glisten with snow. But Thanksgiving ■was not kept in Kitty's home. Her father was an honest man, but very ■trict and stern, and he said that he gave thanks every hour, not Just one day In the year. He did not believe In very much pleasure for young people. The neigh bors said: “Just wait until that young •sf child of his, Kitty, grows up and •ee if she doesn’t set her will against her father's will in these matters. Khe bas such a determined way with her.” The neighbors were right. When Kitty was nearly 14 she made her first attempt to set aside her father's will. At school there was one boy named Johnny Martin that Kitty thought very nice. He was her brother barn's chum. Johnny told Kitty that his mamma had brought him the finest new sleigh, and that his aunt across tbs river was going to glvs a party for the young folks the night before Thanksgiving, “and 1 am going to taka Vou and Mam to Ihe party In my new sleigh, Johnny said.

You will play games and maybe dance a little, and that wpuld never do for us." But Kitty could not help thinking about the party, and at last her desire merged Into a resolve to go. “And you are going with me," she said stoutly to her brother Ram, two years older than herself. “Yes, you are. and don’t say no! It's Just awful for us to have no fun at all. We will go to Nellie Brown's to spend the evening. We haven't been at the Browns for so long. Surely papa will not refuse that request, beenuse he thinks the Browns ever so nice. They live nearly across the river from Johnny's aunt, and they are going over In the boat to the party, so Nellie told me." “But that will bo the same as tell ing a lie, for we will not spend the evening with tho Browns," weakly protested Sam. “Yes. we will—we will spend It with them st the party. I expect to tell papa where we have been when I get home again. 1 won't care thon for the scolding, for I will have enjoyed the party." ft all turned oat as Kitty planned.

Johnny Martin wanted to take Sam and Kitty heme In his sleigh, and while they debated over this offer, Will Brown and hit; sisters, thinking Ram and Kitty not coming with them, went on toward the river. But Ram wanted to see Will about something that night, and said: “lil hurry on to overtake our crowd, and you two go on In tho sleigh around by the bridge, Hnd drive back along the river road on the other side to meet me. I've Just got to see Bill again to-night.” Ro Sam hurried on to the river. When he reached the mooring place, the Browns were nearly across the riv er In thrlr boat, and Ram would not call to them, but looked for another boat. There was none In sight but an old dugout, which is simply half a por tion of a log, flattened on the bottom and scooped out like a trough. One end of thia dugout was Ailed with Ice, hut Ram hiid rowed about the river too much to mind that. Picking up a long pole used for steering the dugout, ho aprang Into It and was soon bobbing out into the middle of the river. Perhaps.

The night was not bright enough to see objects plainly, but Nellie was very sure that she saw Kitty sitting behind Ram in the dugout. “Oh, Will!” she cried out In alarm.' "Row back! That dugout will roil over with them!” Will rowed back with all the speed possible, but before he came In clear sight of tho dugout It struck a cake of Ice fairly, and one end flying up in the air, tumbled Sam backward, hts head striking the ice in the boat before he rolled out of it into the river. He was clinging to the dugout. dazed and speechless with the blow and the shook from the cold plunge, and the young people ibore him to their . home unconscious. Johnny and Kitty, almost flying along the river road, wondered why they did not meet Sam. They pulled out of the road to let a galloping horse go by. Its rider, an older son of the Browns, was going for the doc tor for Ram, and to tell Klder Blair that Kitty was In the river. He did not recognize Johnny or Kitty, but called back: "Ram Blair's boat turned over!” Then Kitty went almost wild with grief and remorse. She dared not go home Mr fear of what her father would say. Johnny could do nothing better than take har to his mother, his own refuge when in trouble, and for houra the kind woman trlod to comfort tho IHtle mourner.

Formed a Sira nee Procession Through Mew York Streets. New York, Nov. It.—With policemen from the Tremont and Bronx Park stations forming an escort and guard of honor, the collection of animals pre sented by King Meneltk to President If you think others give good values, Come Here. You’ll find better. Roosevelt made an interesting parade from Fordham to the New York Zoological Park. These animals, which arrived recent ly on the steamship Minneapolis, came to this country consigned to William Bills, and are intended as a gift from the African King to President Roose velt. It was at first Intended to ship them direct to Washington, but this plan was changed and the collection is now safely housed under the care of the Zoological Society In Bronx Park, where It will remain until further or ders, and perhaps mav eventually form part of the regular collection. At the head of the profession was Raleb Bln Raleb, an attendant, who came to this country with the ani mals. In his charge were the two Galada baboons, natives of Abyssinia, their fierce looking faces, with manes resembling those of lions, causing the boys who followed to give the animals plenty of room. These baboons are considered very rare In this country and are now the only ones of their kind In the Zoological Park. Led by an attendant of the park and closely following tho strangely clod Raleb Bln Raleb. enme Gravy's zebra, which Is a particularly fine specimen of Its kind, no others being on ex hibition In this country. The zebra, like the other animals of the collec tion, will be kept in the park until President Roosevelt sees fit to other wise dispose It. It differs from the others on exhibition there, In that Its •tripes are much finer, while the white tialr Is very much cleaner looking than Table Linens, Towels, Etc. Great Thanksgiving Offerings.
