FOI- Some Time on Farm
Near Chicago.
ANSONIA, April 9.—After I myster-
ious disappearance extending for near-
ly five weeks Christian Christensen. a
well—known butcher of this city, re-
turned to his home, last night, to tell
a queer. but interesting story of his
whereabouts during that period. He
left the city under peculiar circum-
stancesMarch 14th, and nothing was
heard of him until a few days ago,
when word came that he was on a lit-
tle form some sixty miles west ol\Chl-
cago, where he was employed as a
farmlrand. The morning of the day
that Mr. Christensen disappeared llt‘.
figured in a trolley accident. when he
was forcibly thrown to the street by
his team conrlng in violent contact
with a car. His arm was badly sprain-
ed anti he complained of other aches
about his body. The afternoon of that
day, Christensen left for New Haven,
ostensibly to purchase a large supply
of fish.
Mr. Christensen says he remembers
but little while on his way to New
Haven, excepting that he was suffer-
lhg with a terrible pain in his head.
He claims that he lapsed into instnsi-
lIility when he reached the city, and
while in this trance journeyed to Chl-
cago, where one morning he found
himself in a strange room. He says
he made his way to the lobby in the
building, and there saw displayed on
the walls maps of western railroads.
and heard newsboys in the street call-
ing out the names of Chicago papers,
He then sauntered into a restaurant,
where he inquired of a waiter the day
of the week and the date of the month.
and he says it was not until then that
he began to I'erncmbcr the circunr‘
stanccs of his lealeII: homo Hr- rc-

appearance from this city he had in his
