II Nav Should Strike.

II Nav should strike,
1 don't know what all of US kids 'ud
do;
There'd be no one
To comb our hair, or write our
'scuse or tie our shoe.
Then, when a feller's played
Until he's starved, and wants a piece
of pie,
Or bread and jam;
If Nav was on a strike,
And wouldn't bake what us kids like,
We'd be like Marin Hubbard's dog
We'd starve and die.
If Nav should strike,
And loaf around, like menfolks do,
downtown,
I'd like to know
Who'd find a rag and say, poor lit
tie man."
If I should cut my thumb or stub my
toe.
"My Paw" Oh, shucks! A mans no
use,
'Cept when the Wlmmen Iolks
Are scared to stay alone at night;
But when a kid wants comfortin' in
side and out,
There amt nobody else but Nav
that's right.
But when kid
Has done lot of things that's mean;
And don't let on he's sorry, till his
Nav
Turns down the light and tucks him
in
Say! do you s'pose 'twould be the
same to kiss his Paw,
II Nav was on a strike!
Well I'd say NAV.

be unfair to condemn the act permitting
such sales until an opportunity had been
provided for testing the new system under

After his conference with Mr. McCooey
the Mayor said that there was no need for
the belief that the failure at this time of the
city TO raise money on bonds had brought
about a serious situation. He pointed out
that while there might be some little delay
on some Of the large general public improve
ments the city was always in position to
borrow money for salaries and other i'm
mediate necessities by issuing revenue bonds

tionsl newspaper stories, and that the records
Of the department showed that the attacks
on women and children in the last month
were not more numerous than the average
figures of such crimes.
Mayor Mcclellan asked Commissioner
O'Keeffe to prepare a statement for him
comparing the number Of assaults COM
mitted on women and girls for the last two
months with the number for the CORE
spending months Of last year. The Mayor
expects to get this report to-day, and he

Ngw ORLEANS, Aug. io.- Passengers
arrived from Nicaragua report great injury
to the banana crop from severe floods, the
loss being in excess Of 50 per cent. Of the
crop and worse in the Blueields and Rama
districts.
The Rama River has swollen to many
times its normal size. In the town Of Rama
the water rose to the second stories Of the
houses, the residents being forced to seek
refuge there. Many persons were rescued
from the food through the upper windows
or from the roofs.
A number Of shacks we're demolished
and sew ersl OF the smaller settlements
we're completely destroyed. and It is feared
that there has been some loss of life. Along
the river and its tributaries the water
washed the soil away from the banana
plants. while the tornado blew down the
trees with their growing fruit. The loss
at and around Bluefields and Rama is es-
timated at more than t5O0.OOO.
