RAISED son AS GIRL.
A True Story That Rivals Some Of
Mark Twain's Fiction.
Attempted Shooting of Nellie Mar
shall, of kenoshn, Wis, by Brother
on Her wedding Day Has
Strange Dcnouement.


Mark Twain has written some re-
markable stories of the errors of birth
and the consequences that followed, but
in all of them there is no more remark
able story than that told by Mrs. r. d.
Marshall, of Kenosha. She has son,
Earl Marshall, who Is about to attain
his majority.
Three weeks ago last night Earl
Marshall suddenly gained notoriety by
shooting at his sister, Nellie, and her
husband, J. w. Roberts. The ceremony
had scarcely been concluded when
young Marshall rushed into the room
and began shooting Before he could be
stopped he fired two shots, but they went
wide of the mark and no one was in
jured
The strange revelations made by the
mother Of the boy to-day shows that
the shots were fired on account of jeal-
ousy, and furthermore, the denouement
of the strange story shows that Marshall
has had peculiar double career.
For eight years Marshall lived and
was reared as girl, and the strangest
part of the whole affair is found in the
assertion that even his mother was not
aware he was a boy.
Marshall was born in 1883 and for 20
years his mother had studiously guarded
from the public the history of his early
life.
At the time of his birth 1t was an
nounced that a female child had been
born, and for the first eight years of
his life Marshall lived as girl His
mother never discovered the error Of
the doctor until after the boy was more
than eight years of age, when he was
sent to hospital for treatment for A
nervous disease.
From childhood Marshall had borne
the name of Eva Marshall. and at the
time of the discovery that he was boy
he declined to accept the change. and
for the next seven years he continued
masquerading as a girl.
When the family removed to Kenosha
Marshall was forced to lay aside his pet
ticoats and he donned mans attire.
Among his few men friends was J. w.
Roberts, who was recently married to
his sister, Nellie Marshall Marshall
was heartbroken when the approaching
marriage of his sister to Robert was an
nounced
Since the time of the shooting
Marshall has been making an effort to
clear himself of the guilt, and In order
to do this he wrote to the papers in his
former home town in Iowa and declared
that the shots had been fired by Miss
Eva Roberts, and asked that the papers
there make an effort to locate Miss Eva
Marshall and notify her parents.
Through the investigation started by
this letter the strange history of his
birth and the error of his parents was
made public

'PHONE GIRL SAYS go"
No, She's Not Surprised, But Is Draw
ing Nearer TO Naught-"Oughto
Crates on Sensitive Ears

The telephone girl is progressive.
For years and years In repeating num-
Der which had zero included she would
always call 1t ought" For instance. II
a subscriber called for twenty four
thirty" the telephone girl would repeat:
'Two-three-four-ou When some
subscriber who had little feeling Of
compassion for the kings English,
which was being so cruelty murdered
right before his ears, would gently OBJ
iect and say: "Two-four-three-nau "
the girl would again repeat, ought,
and tell the subscriber to look in the
dictionary"
But the world moves, says the New
York Herald. The "naught" is COM
mencing to be realized in the most ex-
elusive telephone circles. 1t could not
be expected that the telephone girl
would surrender all at once. She has
fought for that ought" too long to drop
it Immediately, and thus confess that
she had been wrong.
SO, while she has dropped the Ought"
she has taken up 20" instead So now
she repeats 2340 in this manner, two
three-four-O."
1t is splendid victory for English I'M
defiled. Optimists can now see dawning
that glad day when the telephone girl
will say "naught" right out loud.
