 Has Lost His Memory.
 The blow on the head received by 18-year-o1d James Kayser, of George town, when he fell down an elevator shaft in the Gilbert & Bennett mill 1 0 rays ago has caused the young man to have forgotten almost everything which took place in his life up to the time of the accident. The one link between his former life and that to which he awakened in the hospital a day or two ago is his father, The son recognizes his father and speaks to him, but aside from that all mem ory of his, former life Is gone. He cannot remember what caused him to jump for the elevator, the attempt which caused him to fall down the shaft, any other details of the accident. The young mans condition is such that he does not remember even that he, has had anythming to eat and hardly has he been given food than he asks to be fed. It is believed that this. condition may pass away in time. but it is believed that it will take some time.
