be located at his residence, 2946
Fifth avenue. At present he is
visiting the points of interes+
along the Illinois division, leaving
FOR Peoria this morning.
The beautiful little French wife
who has come with Captain Haber-
law to this country. was formerly
MademoiselIe Jeanne Barton, a
war nurse for four years. Captain
HaberIaw met her in the work
over there and the wedding was
contaminated just following the

whole time he was exposed to
heavy shell fire, but succeeded in

Of these was one circulated last
