Tracy, whose home is at 2017 Octavia street, will remember Thanksgiv- | da; ing day, 1902, as long as he lives. The remembrance of the day is not forced on him because he had no turkey. On the contrary, he had an overabundance of the fcwl. Tracy, who works for the firm of Compagno & Co., poultry dealers, while in the icehouse where the turkeys were stored on Thanksgiving morning managed to close the door of the cold room while he was op the inside, and as he could not open it or get ald he was compelled to remain locked up until 7 o’clock Friday morning. The presence of rabbit skins, which he wrapped around him, saved him from being frozen to death. i —_———————— Rut in the Street His Undoing. J.

TAKES HIS AUDIENCE AMONG DOUBLE STARS Professor Hussey Explains Work of Astronomers and Some Dis- coveries Made. Professor W. J. Hussey, astronomer at the Lick Observatory, delivered a lecture last evening at the Academy of Sciences before a_deeply interested audience. Pro- fessor Hussey first gave an account of the early discoveries of double stars and spoke of Sir Willlam Herschel, who began the double star work by discovering 814 double stars and proved that in certain cases there existed two suns revolving about each other. Sir William Herschel's’ discovery, said Professor Hussey, gave an impetus to work in this direction, which subsequent- ly led to numerous discoveries by the Struves and other astronomers. The dis- ! covery of double stars, sald Professor Hussey, had been an important feature of the work at the Lick Observatory, where no less than 17,000 accurate obser- vations had been made.

Their screams for help at- tracted the attention of men at work in an adjoining lumber yard, who fished the scaked youths out and sent them to the Emergency Hospital, where they were dried out and sent to their homes.
