And I've sneaked home.
To write about 1t.
I was invited.
To go to the Ritz.
For a supper.

And I'm still wearing,
My evening clothes.
And a silk hat.
And waiting for my wife.
Who is also disgraced.
And I do not suppose.
That I will ever.
Be invited out again.
After we were seated.
The Duke of whozlz.
Or somebody.
Came to take our order.
And he went away.
And a young marquis came.
And gave us ice water.
And pretty soon.
A lord brought our food.
And I looked at him.
Ana ne looked at me.
without moving a muscle.
And It was Mike.
Who used to play with me.
Back in the home town.
And I shook hands.
And told him.
To put down his tray.
And drag up a chair.
And have dinner with US.
And he looked fused.
And excused himself.
And all the guests.
Glared at me.
And the prince came up.
And said Jules.
That's Mikes name now.
Was taken ill.
And he would serve us.
And nobody said a word.
So I got my hat.
And came right home.
And now I'm disgraced.
But how should I know.
Why Mike and / used TO chew
On the same all day sucker.
And sleep in the same bed.
And I don't see now.

Russian Factions
Willing to Confer

PARIS, Feb. 12.-(By Associated
Press. prospects are Frightening
for the assembling Of at least four OF
the Russian factions at the conference
to be held on the Princes island.
Word has come from the Ukraine
that the government Of that former
part Of Russia will participate in the
conference, and 1t is reported that the
indecision Of the government Of Gen.
eral Denikine has given way to de.
side to join the conference. The gov.
eminent OF the Crimea already has &C.
cept the invitation as has the Rus.
sian Bolshevid government. It is be
ginning to appear that a sufficient
number Of other factions will be in evil.
dence to meet the Bolsheviki and the
Entent and American representatives
to assure the success Of the conference
plan.
The success Of the conference, how.
ever, is believed to depend upon the
willingness Of the Moscow soviet to
give certain guarantees, such as the
cessation Of hostilities and the with
drawal Of the Bolsheviki forces from
the provinces which they have in.
vaded.
1t is by no means certain that the
soviet government will agree to any
such guarantee.
