FRENCH DEPUTY
FREED BY HUNS
Ingels Tells of Disorder as
He Was Given
Freedom.

Paris-Among the first ar
rivals from Germany by the clauses
of the armistice was Ingels, deputy of
the North. who has been a prisoner In
the hands of. the Germans for more
than two years.
While at Tourcoing, Ingels was SEN
fenced to three years Imprisonment
by the Germans for having tried to
keep up the morale of the people. He
also. angered the Boche by keeping a
record of the crimes committed by
the enemies soldiers.
Upon his arrival at Dieppe. he said:
After my long confinement in pris-
on at Coblenz l was surprised TO hear
a great deal of noise out in the streets.
The gates and doors of the prison
were being broken in by about hun
DIRE pioneers. We were told that we
were free. The prison buildings were
set on fire by the mutinous soldiers.
II hurried to the town hall, where ]
asked for protection. Upon my ar
rival at the prison had left 500 with
the commanding officer. The day fol-
lowing my release. / went to the Of
ficer and asked him to return it to me.
He consented TO loan me $50 of it.
then went to see the komma ndantur
of the town. and he gave me a pass

there / went to the frontier. which
crossed at Nanloo. and arrived in the
afternoon at Rotterdam"

side, where wild cat and mountain
lion lay down beside their human
companion.
One day from a hole scarce large
enough to admit a man, the hermit
appeared. Matted grey hair hangs
down his back. He is wholly black.
Fe had rife slung across his arm,
but how he obtains ammunition is
a mystery.
The hermit had been a man, ap-
parently of refinement and educa-
tiOn. He told McClelland he had
been gathering paste board boxes
from camps of tourists out of which
he had clothed himself.
He accompanied McClelland to the
edge of the forest and there bade the
officer leave him. telling him the wild
horses would return.
Beasts Obey.
Within FIVE hours. Pagosa declares,
every beast had entered the forest.
1t is believed here that Hardwick
exiled himself because disappointed in
love, and when he went into the
mountains took several fine horses
with him. which have multiplied tC
the present herd.
Three letters from Covington, Ky,
have come to Pagosa addressed to
Hardwick. They were never called
for, and were returned. The last one
was eight years ago.

Basle.-Here in Switzerland. 4,5OO
miles from the Gettysburg and Bull
Run of half a century ago, on the
edge of Germany, are three civil
war veterans drawing pensions
from Uncle Sam.
One is 81 years old. He is a Swiss
who went to the United States just
before the close of the civil war.
He enlisted on the Union side. The
war ended before he even smelled
powder, but he's pulling down $40
month from the United States
Treasury.
Another, of the same age, has
has been bedridden for years. His
descendants keep him alive on milk
and honey, for that $40 goes a long
way when Swiss peasants have it to
spend
The third fought on the Union
side, and. after the war. went to
live in New Orleans, where he ac-
quired modest fortune. He's been
living here for years, and his most
priced possession is a picture of JEFF
ferson Davis, president of the Con-
rederacy, which he brought back
from New Orleans.
