One of the moat notable disguises of ,
ex on record wai that of Cheyaiier
D'Kon, -who masqueraded as a woman,
while acting as the diplomatic. agnt of
Louis XV. to the court of the empress
of Russia. He was born in Tonnere,
France, in" 1728, and died in 1810.
'Tope Joan," who ia commonly spok
en of B8 an English girl, waa credited
aa masquerading aa a man o success
fully that she wandered iu many laucU
and waa never detected. There ia a
story, now generally discredited, that
she became a pope under title of John
VIII., says the Chicago Chronicle.
There lived 20 years ago in Hungary
an officer named Felix Francoine who
was one of the most valorous captain
in the army. Her sex was not discov
ered until after her death.
In Brittany a few years ago thera
lived an old fisherman who for SO yews
followed the sea. She waa not like
the woman celebrated in the song of
"The Three Fishermen," for she did
not stay borne to weep. She Waa so
successful with the nets that she
amassed a fortune, and at ber death
left considerable property, 13 fishing
smacks and a snug sum is the Bank of
France. She bad been twice married
and. left to her wife a good share of this
world's goods. - ,
Catherine Coombs now lives la West
Ham poorhouse, London, at the age of
no. She had for 43 years passed as
Charles Wilson and had earned a (rood
living as a mural painter and decorv
tor. She was actually proud of her
handiwork as shown in the decorations
of the .eabiryt of the Vessels of the
Peninsular and Oriental line. No new
craft which we ntlnto th aer?Ioe waa
considered complete without having
decorations fainted by. Charles Wit
son." She waa in the employ af the
company rularly for 17 years, and so
much confidence had her employers la
her business ability that :thy' fre
quently asked her to undertake irapo.
taot negotiations for them. She waa
injured by a fall, and, beiag unable to
fallow her trade, .was obliged to p lata
an mentation. r , , r
There died in England a frwyra4j6
woman, who tad rFa'b'hed iht halo old
age of 108. The last. 40 yr't her stay
on earth she lived under a maacaHaa
asm. . ,.
. One of the matters of aa SflgUafc
almshouse was a woman who for II
years donned man's attire. Her idea-
tlty waa revealed through a man who
waa brought to the institution and who
hailed her as his long-lost wife, i
Mrs. Pietro Lcfrananl worked for
mora than a year in the coal mines of
Haaleton. She. was Injured, in an ex
plosion and the surgeons discovered
that ahe was not a' man.
In order to obtain the wages of
man a young woman disguised herself
in male attire several years ago and
worked for many years aa a cashier in
a Cleveland (0.) book store. . .
. There are several instances la recent
years where men have sought employ'
ment aa cooks in the dress of women.
A man who called himself. Christina
Becreng worked as a cook for ten years
in the kitchens of New York house
holds and earned especial commends
tions for culinary skill and neatness,
He would not have been discovered in
his deception had he not Indulged in a
drunken spree, in the course of which
he neglected to shave for several dayo.
A RUSH FOR AUTOA.
Maaafaetar u . lalea Kara la

Tbe year in automobiles has been a
rood one, but even with its increase ol
about 100 per cent, in the manufacture,
the business was not entlre'y gratify
ing to manufacturers. At the outset
the makers looked for tremendous
sales, but with the unsettled condi
tion in business, generally due to de
clining values, many purchasers held
back. Triers of autos. however, were
well held throughout the year, and To
some instances advanced. The auto
mobile is not a novelty, allowing
wide margin of profit to the maker,
as it is essential that all parts of the
mschinery Included in its construction
be of equal merit, which prevents in
ferior productions and keeps prices
op.
The demand for pleasure vehloles
represented only ahout 3 per cent, of
tbe total increase in the output dur
ing the year, which indicates their
growing popularity. The striklnf
growth was in the output of deliver)
and truck autos. One of the features
that developed during the year was ths
formation of several bus and tr"ck
companies for the purpose of hand'
Una country passengers and farm
aroduets to and from towns., It has
developed that this business is a suc
cess, and will eventually expand to
vast proportions. The export demand
has also grown materially, and the
American make of every description i
going to all parts of the world tvta
to France where they originated.
