BY IDAH McGLONE GIBSON Milwaukee, Wis., May 13J "Did this woman, as far as you know, wear male attire for imhioral pur-, poses? Did you ever see her do, any thing vulgar?" asked the judge in the case of "disorderly conduct" brought against Cora Anderson, who, until last week, as Ralph Kerwinieo, had worn men's clothes and posed as- a man for thirteen years. "No." t "While m male attire how did she act?" the judge continued. "Like a PERFECT GENTLEMAN," was the policeman's answer, much to the amusement of the spectators who filled the police courtroom in Milwaukee. And this is the verdict of almost every third man in the city who knew Ralph Kerwinieo well and never for a moment suspected that -"he" was a woman.
