Sought Employment Dress
ed as a Boy.

Beaumont, Texas, February S.-A
strange case of dual personality came
to light here to-day. On December
Il of last year young man apparent
ly about 20 years Old called on the
Secretary of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association and requested to
be assisted in his search for en-
ployment. He told a story of mis-
fortune, saying he came originally
from New York, but had become sick
in New Orleans and was only re-
Gently discharged from hospital
there. He gave his name as Perry
Martin, and his charming manner en-
listed sympathy.
Employment was secured at the
Oaks Hotel as bellboy, where he re-
NAMED until last Friday.
Then came a surprise. The man
ager came upon his bellboy without
his coat and noted that the rounded
contour was not masculine Charged
with masquerading in false attire
the young woman burst into tears and
confessed her sex. She declared she
had been compelled by force of cir
cumstances to don mans apparel and
pleaded to be retained She volun-
teered no statement as to her past
life and career, and the manager of
the hotel not allowing her to remain
in his employ, she left yesterday for
Houston.
A strange feature of the story of
the young woman is her affection for
young woman in New York City,
whose name was not ascertained, to
whom she said she was engaged to
be married.
