WOMEN IN TROUSERS.
ROTABLES WHO MASQUERADE IN THEM
FOR VARIOUS PURPOSES.
THEY WOULD RATHER BE MEN,
Pr. Mary Walker, Rosa Bonheur,
George Sand, Sara Bernhardt
and Their illustrious Prede
cessors — Female Outlaws
"Who Array Themselves in
Men's Clothes.
OM KING is a no
torious Oklahoma
horse thief and jail
breaker.
And Tom King is
a woman. .
She was captured
last week clothed in
male attire, and
then for the first
time the sex of the
leader of as desper
ate a gang of-"cattle
pirates as ever made
ranchmen misera
ble was di Covered.
For months tiiis
■woman has scourged the territory, and
Iter masquerade has been so perfect that
.sue deceived even the members of her
own band.
Tom King is the most recent convert
in the list of women * who wear men's
garments, but in the ranks of her pred
ecessors there are many well known
and famous women, 'including, ot
•course, the perennial Dr. Mary Walker,
who is' so identified with the city of
Washington and the wearing of trousers
that it would be difficult to imagine her
out of either, says the New I'ork Heri
ald.
This, to be sure, is in direct violation
of the law of most of the states, which
forbids either sex. to assume the garb of
the other, but In the state of Missouri
provision i* - made for those who choose
to indulge i i this vagary, and a written
provision from the governor entitles a
woman to wear with impunity a man's
dress outside of cities of 10,000 inhab
itants. And for a number of years a
well known woman, Emily Paxtou, has
availed herself of this privilege.
This woman was left an orphan when
she was a young girl, and at about the
age of fifteen she determined to make
her livelihood by working on a farm, ln
the vocation that she had adopted her
skirts were an annoyance and a hin
drance, ana at the "suggestion of tier
employer she donned the habits of men
and continued to wear them for twenty
four years. She was finally in charge ot
a large farm in Pike county, comprising
several hundred acres, and there was uo
part of the work that she could not per
form herself. She disliked, however,
the chopping of wood, and her preferred
occupation was the breaking ot horses.
A Bride in Trouseri*. '
lt was the same reason, namely, con
venience, that induced Mine. Dicnlafoy,
the famous explorer, to adopt the male
attire, and her case is the more remark
able because she was brought up in the
strictest way, and never even attended
a dance until she was married. Her
husband was a soldier, ana it was as a
bride and iv order to be with him dur
ing the war that she first dressed like a
man. When, later, she became inter
ested iv archaeology in the East she con
tinued to wear the same costume, and
the spirit that actuated her In her work
was as masculine as the garb she wore.
Gen. Sir Robert Murdoch Smith, who
knew her when she was at work in
GEOBGE SAXD.
Persia, is authority for the statement
that her energy was tireless and indom
itable.
The question, -'How does she look?"
Is thus answered by one of her friends:
"One sees the tiny woman in the feet
and ankles, the hands, the wrists, the
pretty throat and the small arms. She
has a large, square forehead, blue eyes
shot with hazel and a fresh complexion.
She is beautifully neat, and her cuffs.
Collars and cravats are irreproachable."
Bona itotiheiir't*. Costume.
Rosa Bonheur is another well known
-woman whose occupation has led her to
the more comfortable costume of the
Bex masculine. In her studio she wears
trousers and a dainty zouave jacket
over a loose shirt of soft material.
When she visits .the fairs where she
makes sketches for the pictures that
have made her famous her dress con
sists of a laborer's blue smock coat and
.cap. This not only enables her to get
the necessary studies, but it also pro
tects her from the rough countrymen
with whom she comes in contacL
George Sand, when making her stud
ies of the "submerged tenth," also
adopted male garments, and she
wore them with the same grace and
charm that she smoked a cigarette, and
how daintily she smoked will be in
terred from the fact that, exquisitely
feminine Elizabeth Barrett Browning
almost approved the habit when she saw
George Sand practice it.
Bernhardt in Boy's Clothing.
Sarah Bernhardt, of course, has worn
boy's clothes on the stage— who that
has seen her as the little vagrant Italian
musician can forget the fact? But she
also wears men's clothes in her atelier.
One suit of these is of a soft white
cloth and the other of black velvet, aud
in the material and make-up of both of
them there is a decided suggestion of
femininity.
CHEVALIER D'EON .
A famous case that attracted wide at
tention was that of the novice in the
schoot at Kalosca. This youth applied for
admission to the seminaryand announced
his intention of becoming a priest. His
noice was singularly sweet and pure,
Audit was noticed with surprise that as
time went by it did not change, but re
mained a high soprano.
In all respects the novice was obedi
ent and well behaved except on the one :
point of refusing to kiss the hands of
his superiors. He persisted in his ob
stinacy until one day when, on the oc
casion of a visit from the primate. Car
dinal de Hayuald. his conduct subjected
him to the punishment of being con
signed to his cell. Here he was i losely'
questioned, and the fact was revealed
that the pupil was the daughter of a
noble family in Hungary.
She had early made up her mind that
the priesthood was her proper and
especial calling, and she had run away
from home to accomplish this purpose."
Rut though she had easily deceived her
superiors by her behavior in every other
■tOSA BOXHEUK.
particular, she could never overcome
her maidenly feeling with reference to
kissing even the hand of a man.
Trousered Women iv Court.
A French police court was the scene
of a curious case, in which two women
dressed as men played the principal
/vl
SARAH HEKXIIAUDT/
parts. The name of one. Mme. Libert,
was called in a certain suit, and in re
sponse a person who was apparently a
young man stepped forward.
"1 want Mine. Libert," said the clerk,
"not M. Libert."
"I am Mine. Libert," was the answer.
The clerk was puzzled, and referred
the matter to the judge. Then followed
the explanation, which was to the effect
tliat Mine. Libert was the daughter of
old Mine. Libert, who was present and
was also dressed like a man. The judge
directed the Mine. Libert who figured
in the suit to return toiler home and
put on women's clothes, when the as
tonishing fact was revealed that not
only had she no feminine clothes, but
she never had had. her mother having
clothed her as male from the time of
her birth.
The mother and daughter were en
gaged iv the printing business, and up
to that time no one had suspected their
sex.
The James boys in this country also
furnished a female inasquerader in the
person of their own cousin, Mrs. Jo
sephine Cox. She began to wear boy's
clothes at the age of thirteen, but when
she was married she returned to the
costume of her sex. On the-death of her
husband, who left her with two chil
dren, she resumed her male attire be
cause she could get better pay as a man
than asa woman.
As Joseph Cox she worked for a farmer
in Aurora, Mo., until tier secret was

found out. She then went to Peirce
City. Mo,, and secured employment in
the" Peirce City Canning company, where
she was regarded as an unusually clever
young man. But again she was discov
ered, and in September. ISS9, she was
arrested, but upon a promise to aban
don her male costume she was released.
Around the Globe in Trousers.
Perhaps the most remarkable instance
of a woman's ability to pass for a man
when suitably costumed for the part is
that of Bare, who was the first woman
to circle the globe. The expedition
which she accompanied was undertaken
by Bougainville in 1770, and Bare
shipped on L'Etoile as valet to the bot
anist of the party. Phiiibert de Coin
mercon. No one on shipboard suspected
that the bright, clever, willing young
mau who bore the hardships of the trip
as cheerfully as the others was a woman.
And it was not until the boat reached
Tahiti thit her disguise was discovered,
and then it was due to the instinctive
keenness of the savages, who greeted
her with the cry, "You're a woman?"
When Bougainville asked her as to
the truth of their assertions she burst
into tears and told her story, which was
that she was born at Buymore, and by
the loss of a lawsuit compelled to earn
her own living. Fortius purpose she
had donned man's garments and entered
the service as valet of a gentleman from
Geneva, resident in Paris. Then she
had heard of the proposed tour of the
world, and immediately her ambition
was fired to be the first woman to have
circu in jated the globe. According
ly she took service with the botanist at
Rochefort. knowing that he was to ac
company the expedition, aud she had
been so zealous in her efforts to please
him that she had become indispensable
to his comfort, and ha therefore took

her on the voyage, and her cud was ac
complished.
: : It may be remarked that it took. the
party two years and four months to
make the trip. Bare was not conspicu
ous either for good or bad looks, and
was about twenty-six years of age at the
tiuie she sailed. She attended Commer
con in his last illness, and she ultimate
ly married a soldier.
Louis Herman Tobush was the name
of a well-known courier who wore men's
clotiies for forty-two years with no sus
picions as to her sex. Tobush had
worked at several trades in different
parts of Europe, but finally she adopted
the role of courier for parties in Europe
and the East. During a voyage from
France to Jersey she fell ill, and in the
hospital at Jersey she confessed that she
had dressed as a man from the time she
was tnirteen years old.
Her costume at the time she was taken
ill consisted of a long overcoat, a fur
waistcoat, a stiff hat and a turned-down
collar. She smoked pipes, cigarettes
and cigars, In her business she had
been prosperous and successful, and
she had a good balance to her credit at
the bankers'.
Count Sandor Vay.
The story of Count Sandor Vay, of
Hungary, is so extraordinary that it has
been made the subject of a book by
Professor yon Krafft Ebbing, the Ger
man philosophical writer. The so-called
count was really Sarolta Vay, a count
ess, and the daughter of Ladislas Vay.
At the time of her'birth, which occurred
nine years after the* marriage of her
mother, the count, for state reasons,
particularly desired a boy. The mother
was afraid to confess that her first-born
was not a boy, and dressed the growing
child in all respects like a lad until at
the age of fourteen Count Ladislas de
termined to send his son to a military
school.
. The mother then told her story. But
the trend that had been given to the
girl's mind was such that she refused to
make any change except under com
pulsion, and even then she swore that
when she came of age she would re
adopt masculine habiliaments and
astonish the people. And she kept her
word royally. At the age of twenty-one
she dressed herself as a man iv Vienna,
Piague and other European capitals.
She lived exactly like a man, smoking,
drinking, lighting, gaming and swear
ing, and ail so naturally that she was
never suspected. Among other vagaries
she contracted nine marriages, and left
in Vienna six divorced Countesses Vay,
Y'wo of whom tried to bring suit for
alimony.

witness the regatta iv his yacht. As
they were about to embark, the yacht
broke away from Mr. Burke, leaving

filliau, an inexperienced sailor, iv his
efforts to return to the dock, jibed, and
as a result, Joe fell overboard, and al
though being unable to swim, he made
frantic efforts to reach the shore. In
the meantime Perry was making un
successful endeavors to manage the

threw several ropes, but the one which
King grasped was loose and connected

some difficulty rescued Mr. Kiug.
