from all parts of the copper and iron
countries. Addresses were given by
well known speakers, and there was
a program of sporting events.

enteen to Four.

The Hancock baseball team was de-
feated yesterday by the Gay team the
latter administering the worst drub-
bling the locals have had since the
season opened. There was a re-
versal of form on the part of the
Hancock players, but the entire affair
was a continuous comedy of errors, as
many as six being made in one inning.
Tn to the fifth inning the prospects
looked good for Hancock, the score
then being to 2 in their favor, but
after that they seemed to go to pieces,
the Gay battcrs landing on the ball
for heavy clouts. and the Hancock
Gelders letting the sphere slide through
their fingers. when a good catch would
have perhaps saved the day. Brewster
pitched UP to the eighth inning when
he was taken out and replaced by
Rompf. stack ohiciated as usual be-

Elena q. Smith, as she looks today
and in male attire, as al" Martinez.

New York, Aug. 2O.-There have
been instances recorded in history of
women who have accompanied their
husbands TO war, but never in fiction
or history there does not appear to
have been any woman who o-thor-
oughly and successfully masqueraded
as man i'm all places that men go,
and i'm all things that men do. with
out sou ever giving her second
glance as Elena B. Smith.
1t was five years ago that one night
in Boston club the assertion was
made that only women who were
masculine in appearance could ac-
complish such a thing. A physician
in the group contended that almost
any woman of nerve could do it.
There were arguments and a wager
was the result.
The physician knew Mrs Smith.
and the next day preached the sub
jet to her. He had bet more deeply
than he had cared to go that he could

man, work as n man, mingle with
men for one year without detection.
He offered the woman S2,500 if she
would carry out the feat The result
was that as Albert c. Martinez, the
young South American, Elena Il.
Smith. worked throughout the first
year.
Because of certain complications,
she persisted for nearly four years
longer, until gradually she was en-
abled to efface the man and restore
the woman without too great shock
to several families.
During the masquerade period, Mrs.
Smith held a mans position with at
least eight well known business
houses of the city, until at last in her
own natural character as a woman,
engaged in business for herself, she
worked as her own agent in her mans
guise under the name of Albert Mar
tinez.
In these business houses while en-
gagged as a bookkeeper, she worked
side by side with scores of men. none
OF whom ever suspected the truth. AS
a salesman or agent on the outside,
she walked the streets of the city
daily, month in and month out visit
ing nearly every prominent business
establishment in the city, dealt with
men by the hundreds, but never
man or woman penetrated her dis
guise.
AS Helen b. Smith she organized
the Spanish American publicity COM

No 81 Liberty street, and later at No.
$50 Nassau street. 1t was there that
Albert c. Martinez made his last APP

as a solicitor of business, but grad
ually dropped out as Helen Il.
