The Colonel (singing)-
Hes a bonnie chief In the mornn'
He's BONNER at the noon
But he's bonniest when the sun drops
And red comes up the moon.

somewhat disconnected us and left us
In rather An untoward predlcament-
don't say that we can't get out % It. i
myself have been In much tighter places
In my life and yet succeeded In extri-
eating myself. Our gallant colonel here
was just remarking as you entered that
the candor and accuracy OF the blunt
Scotch character seems to be more or
less wanting or shall say totally alb

friend, the chief OF police, and that,
therefore. discerning public mind
might be beguiled into the erroneous
notion that In this instance the Nc
Winters may be approximating more
nearly the actualities than he. This
colonel really regards Sheets statement
as very much In the nature OF con-
fesslon and | am inclined TO the belief
myself that the exigencies of the case
would seem % require a temporary re-
spite from duty on the part OF Honest
George, at least until after the election.

far better grace to thank God for the
American party, because, don't you see,
