Tlio other day when going up Central Avenue, John Fer guson threw a banniia skin on the Bhlowalk. A llttlo later when re turning tlio banana skin threw John on the sidewalk.

Murphy has established n summer homo on Coos Klvor and Mrs. J. T, Harrlgan lias named It "Klllarney," and has Invi ted nil the Irish on Central Avonuo to tlio christening next Siindny. Frank Cohan when ho heard It said "Oh," but tlio committee on Invitations said "O'Cohan" wouldn't look good In tlio list of those present nt an Irish christening. SMIIiK-A-WlIIIiK Dnniago Suit Itiiuinred. Tlio friends and admirers of our promis ing follow citizen "MIdgo" "Welch nro rather concerned over the rumor that tho City Fathers aro going to scud him n hill for damage done to tho sidewalk on Central avonuo which baa boon caused by his, night ly pilgrimage on that busy thorough faro. A denial of this rumor will, If It comes from tho principal hlmso'., aid greatly In lifting tho burden of doubt from our already heavily bur doncd shoulders. SMH,K.A-AVI!IJ,K CViiti'iil Avonuo l'iirutlo. ConslJ erable consternation was created on Central Avonuo Monday evening whon with only momentary warning two brass bauds nnd n big pnrado started proceshlng down tho street. Davo Stafford allowed that It was In celebration of his birthday and thought tho boys got mixed In their dntes or tho grapo Juice. It proved, howovor, to bo a boost for tho nig Splash at llandon nnd wns engineer ed by George Goodrtim who Is somo engineer.

Lord John Tackle 'em Hnrrlgan, commander of tho Central division wheeled his new 11! centimeter gnsollno gun into position at tho comer of Hroadway nnd Central avenue. It wns hardly placed In position when ho received a note from Secretary of State John Ilutlcr saying that it was a violation of the Frank llngiio treaty because it was not placed more than two feet under ground. Lord Harrlgan is outspoken In his belief that tho protest was Inspired ly Count von Songsacken, who vluwod tho now armament with great alarm. Alter an exchange of notes tho mat ter was amicably adjusted and the new II! centimeter still occupies lllll No. GU much to tho dlscomfl tiin ami discomfort of tho German forces. A lnrgo display of guns nnd am munition in tlio Central avcuuo tiuiches of tho Marshfield illurdwaro hns also occasioned further alarm and brought forth n declaration rf a submarine blockade from von Sengstacken. Tho English forcos countered with a statement thnt It waii only a paper blockade and a bad policy at that and von Sengstacken war Husslan to cover.
