Colonel P. Donan was standing the other evening in a contemplative mood before a certain show window in Portland, sayB the Journal. Across his mind there flitted the re collections of other days. As he stood there a Chinaman, attired in the wad ded blouse of his country, with sleeves that would prove valuable to a gambler or a prestigitateur, silent ly came up and stood by his side. He was attracted by the gaudy dis play in the window. He, too, fell into a pensive mood. Perhaps he was thinking of his almond-eyed sweet heart, in far off Canton, or possibly in Hong Kong, where they did not play ping-pong. Neither spoke. In the gathering shadows of the night each stood and kept his thoughts to himself. Suddenly a large man a stranger joined the two. H7 sidled up be hind the Chinaman, quite unknown to the latter. Bending low, he grabbed the Celestial by the legs in his pow erful hands, just below where the funny silk trousers were bound close ly to tho limb and began barking like a dog. Of course Wun Lung, or whatever his name is .started in affright. He had an uncomfortable brace of ten minutes. The big stranger laughed most Immoderate ly. As soon as he could control himself, he turne dto Colonel Donan with the remark: "Did you know that a Chinaman is always afraid of a dog?" The tall southerner with a sarcas tic curl of his lip, merely replied: "I never did, sir, until the present instance." The man stopped grinning, and as the full force of Colonel Donan's re mark finally dawned upon his mind, he slunk away. Colonel Donan waB considerably surprived this morning when a stranger came running up to him and greeted him as Governor Moody." He. has hardly gotten over it yet, either.
