Civil War Veteran Makes Pension Claim
After Conflict Faded Totally From Mind

important battles of the war, New
salt said after his discharge from a
Philadelphia hospital he had forgotten
the Union Army, the Civil War, and,
in fact, the existence of Dayton,
Ohio, his boyhood town, which he had
left to enter the war as a member of
+ Company of the 14th United States
Infantry.
He was given up as dead by his
relatives at Dayton. A year ago a
portion Of shell was removed from
his head. Then shortly afterward he
sat in railroad station when some
one mentioned Dayton, Ohio" The
name brought back many things to
Leopold's mind.
The Civil War came back to him
with freshness.
Although Sd years old, Newsalt now
remembers details of the war. AL
though she had traced the movements
of her husband and thought hinf
dead, he was welcomed back by his
wife, with whom he is now living.

Indiscreet Are Forced to Wear

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, February 26.-Long hair
and not magnificence of attire is one
of the few distinctive signs of being
at the British court in these daySswhen
princesses and working girls wear
simple garments that are much alike.
The reason. of course, is King
Georges aversion to bobbed hair.
While the Queen merely thinks the
short haired fashion ugly, she recog-
nizes its practical advantages. but the
King has refused to sanction any of
the ladies attached to the court appear
ing with shorn locks.
Some ladies' at the court. indiscreet
enough to cut their locks, have had to
take to switches and other means to
conceal their hobs until their hair
grows long again.
