They swept before my face,
A lady growing out of them

A Bit Of Romance-A Female Disg uiscd
ms u Soldier,

An apparently youthful soldier stopped ct
the Susquehanna hotel on Saturday evening
last, TO await the departure of the train for
Harrisburg. He was not there long, however.
before it was whispered among some of the
knowing ones that the soldier was female
which fact was revealed by fellow passen ger
from Washington. Finding that he was sas
pected, and fearing that he might be subjected
to great Inconvenience from il, he had Just con-
cluied to make known to the marshal OF police
that he was II female, when q policeman ap-
pearGd, and taking him into custody conducted
him to the Middle District station house, where
the charge OF being woman was preferred
against him.
The subject of his investigation, whose name
is concealed for prudential reasons is u rather
