Hon. Onion Jo, Japanese ranch-boy of Contra Costa County, recently enjoy one railway accident. His 2 feetprints has been missing since then. So you will please forgive following Japanese sonnet he send me because he is a very weak patience in hospital:

CONVERSATION TALKED BY ONION JO WITH ONE FOOLISH-BIRD ON SPRINGTIME TWIGS

Told me in song-sing, tree-bird of April Foolish,

Why do America Fleet

Travel so low-down in water-tight Ocean?

Why-so

Is all symptoms of armour-belt missing

And why such cargo of weight?

“Twit! Twit!”

Response them animal in voice of Commander Sims,
