THE GIRL WAS A BOY.
A Young Swiss Lived All His Life ft Girl
I mil He Foil In Love.
From the Springfield Union.
The case of the Brooklvn bov crimi
nal who, In the course of one day re
cently was Judged to be a girl, and a few
nours arter that a boy, and who had
lived both as a girl and as a bov with
out raising any suspicions, is faf sur
passed, in extraordinary Interest by
that of a younr Swiss who nnssed all
his life as a gin uuill a month ago.
ne was Known by the name of Laura
Besnar, and came of a good family.
Why his frlendH should have registered
the child as a female, and subsequently
kept up. the deception, is a matter of
mystery. The young man is said to
have found the companionship of the
weaker sex very pleasant, and would
have continued to frequent the society
of young women as one of their num
ber had he not fallen In love. but. in
order to woo and w n the ladv of his
cnoice, ne declared his proper sex.
the earlier years of his life were
spent In a convent shool. on leaving
which he studied a cure for stammering
and subsequently founded a school for
tnat purpose. This was so successful
that In a few years ho amassed 40.0UO
francs, and then decided to study
medicine. With this object he entered
Btudent at Grenoble school of medicine
as a woman, and to all outward ap
pearances was one. His features were
distinctly feminine, and nothing In the
shape of a mustache or whiskers was
to be observed. In every way he com
ported himself as a female, and seemed
quite at ease In the character he as
sumed. The only thing which might
have betrayed him. perhaps, was a
slight suspicion of the masculine In his
voice. This, however, was scarcely
sufficient to attract special notice.
Individual Communion Cupv.
From the Philadelphia Press.
The Eighteenth Street Methodist Epis
copal congregation, Eighteenth and
Wharton, used the Individual com
munion cup for the first time last Sun
day morning. Rev. C. E. Adumson,
pastor of the church, presided at the
services, and after his sermon referred
to the change made, saying that the
method was considered much better
than the old method. Owing to the
failure of the maker of the cups to send
them on time, only seventy were used.
The congregation has between 200 and
300 communicants, so the cups had to
be used more than once. By the time
of the next communion service, the first
Sunday of next month. Rev. Mr. Adam
son expects to have 350 cups on hand, so
that there will be enough and to spare,
Most of those who were present spoke
of the change with approval.
