THE RETURN OF THE COLONEL.
House, the enigmatic Colonel, Wilson's right-hand man in France
When the President was leading Peace's great Parisian dance,
Once again returns to Europe as a journalist free-lance.
He's a most sagacious person, indisposed to carp or grouse,
So we hope he'll be successful, aided by his tact and nous,
In upholding Mr. Wilson, not in bringing down the House.
The Ubiquitous Scot.
From The Times' summary of news:—
"Our Constantinople correspondent, in a message reviewing the situation in Armenia, states that the Armenians have captured the ancient town of Nakhitchevan, where a Tartan Government had been set up."
Small wonder that, people complain that no place is safe from Scotland's activities. Meanwhile there seems a likelihood of a Tarzan Government being set up in the film world.
From Mrs. Asquith's reminiscences:
"One day after this conversation he [the late Lord Salisbury] came to see me in Cavendish Square, bringing with him a signed photograph of himself. This was in the year 1904, at the height of the controversy over Protection."—Sunday Times.
As Lord Salisbury is generally supposed to have died in 1903, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has been requested to investigate the incident.
