Yea. they have named me worse than
that.
But here comes some man with a book
That calls me ''proletarlat!
Now, have lived the best could.
I've paid my debts when necessary.
I've been, I reckon. average good
For one 80 human and contrary.
But all my effort in the line
OF keeping straight and all Of that
Is wasted, and my eyes run brine
II I'm a ''proletariat" =,
I don't know what the word can mean,
And, tell the truth, I'm scared to learn.
Far as know I've never seen
A sample and don't care a durn
IF should waste the brief remains
OF what short time have at bat
Without once getting through my brains
The sense Of "proletariat."
Yet while live and have my health
I'd have the whole world understand
That, though I've neither fame nor wealth,
There's none that dares to lift his mana
And swear that I. peace loving man
That tries to side step family spats,
Could Ger be listed with the clan
That's labeled 'tproletariats."

HUNTERS ARE LOST
DURING THICK FOG
Harry McKannay and Party in
Thrilling Adventure on
the Bay

Harry McKannay, secretary to Mayor
TAYLOR. had a thrilling experience on
the bay last Sunday. In peril with him
for hours We're his wife's father, George
W. Staley; her uncle, John w. Staley.
and her brother. John B. Staley. George
Miller, a friend of the two families,
also was in the mishap which nearly
cost the lives of three of the five. as
well as those of three boatmen taken
with the party on the bay. The facts
became public only yesterday.
McKannay joined his relatives al Al
viso shortly before midnight last Sat
urday, and with them went several
miles up the bay in their IS foot
gasoline launch. At o'clock Sunday
morning McKannay. Miller and John
w. Staley, with their three boatmen,
duck hunting, and had not gone far
when the heavy fog settled, hiding
everything from view.
The three boats kept together. but
could not find the launch. After hours
of effort this search was given up, and
one of the boatmen having a chart of
the bay the attempt was made to fig
ure out their position and to reckon on
landing place. The boatman could
make nothing of the chart, but obsti-
nately refused to give it up. McKannay,
getting near him by ruse, seized the
chart from his hand and succeeded in
figuring out the direction of Dumbarton
point.
The fog lifting little, the three
boats We're prope.'.7 each with the
single sculling oar six miles to the
point, where all arrived nearly ex-
hausted late Sunday night. Monday
morning they got transportation to
within seven miles of Alviso and walk
ed the remaining distance. not having
been able to communicate with the city
or their friends in the interval.
For "a hours the two Sta1eys left in
the launch secured the southern end of
the bay, seeking the lost. and then rel
turned to Alvso to learn of their
| friends safe arrival. All agreed that
| if any wind had arisen during the hours
the boats were lost in the fog the
lchoppy water would have made their
position precarious. AS it was. the
party suffered severely from hunger
thirst, exposure and hardship and when
they reached Dumbarton were thor
oughly exhausted.
