REGISTERED AS FEMALE.
HE CANNOT NOW MARRY
NJ. BIaise of Paris, Though
Once Welded, Is Barred
From Second Venture.
Correspondence Of The Star.


PARIS, March 49, 1912
An abSent-minded clerk of the civil reg
istry entered forty-eight years ago the
name Of a newborn babe, who is now
M. Blaise, as that Of girl. For forty
eight years NJ. Blaise never knew that
he was registered under the female gen.
der. Other equally absent-minded clerks
supplied him with a male birth certificate.
He was called under the flag to serve
as a soldier at the age Of twenty. He
very correctly appeared at the barracks
as a male and not a female recruit Later
on he married and had children, who
were all duly inscribed as the children
Of NJ. Blaise. Then his wife died and
was inferred and the demise was proper
~ registered.
At last NJ. Blaise, being still almost in his
prime, desired to marry again. He had
to apply once more for birth certificate
ones birth requires such frequent proof
in France-and he wrote to Saint Die, his
native place, for the first time in forty
eight years. A reply came from clerk
who was not absent-minded. NJ. Blaise
was told that he could not marry, because
he was not born boy, but girl. The
record on the registry was plain. M.
Blaise could not believe the joke. for
joke he thought 1t was. He asked to see
for himself. and he saw that he was still
Mile Blaise.
The consequence is that his first wife
never was his wife, his children are not
his children and he cannot marry at
present. The civil registry in France is
terrible institution. It is kept with
once Numbered, continue to blunder for
generations to come. There is no rem
edy for NJ. Blaise except to induce the
last clerk to correct the original blunder.

KICKED OUT OF HOUSE
And Then Invited Back Again to
Hear Weird Narrative.

OF course, the main interest in our
Sunday Magazine at present. as il will
be for many %eeks TO come, is 1.-The
Lost World. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's
wonderful new serial. which began in
our issue of March ~ In the first in
stallment you were told of the prepara-
tions that Malone, the London newspaper
man. made TO get an interview from
Prof Challenger, the bellieerent scientist
who had returned from South America
with the story that he had found a region
containing various animal monstrosities
mat the world had long believed to be ex-
tinct- This announcement was received
win derlsion by the entire scientific world
and Challenger held himself aIoof from
everybody. and threw out of his house
anybody that attempted to interview Kim
III the second lnstallment, which appears
in our next issue, it is found that Malone
was also kicked out of the house. for
IL didn't take the professor more than
few minutes to discover that he was
also one OF the hated Journalists Ma
lone, however, was little broader mind
ed than the former visitors had beec
and refused 10 have Prof. Challenger ar
rested, admitting that he had no business

professor s sense of fairness that he in
Nited Malone TO return, and then proceed

tales known in adventure annals.
The pictures accompanying this story
are probably the finest that We're ever
drawn for serial story. for Joseph

tale, and is doing the best that is i'm
him. This best is Just about the best
ever seeo IN this class Of illustrating.

DEATH RIDES ON ENGINE.
Dynamite-Lad Locomotive Sent
Crashing Into Federals' Train.

JIMINEZ, March 25.-The rebels, after
three days of fighting, claim victory.
There are many dead on both sides.
Gen. Gonzales Salas. the federal leader
and the Mexican minister of war, is
among the wounded He resigned his
portfolio to take the field
Sixty federal dead were accounted for
when the insurgents loaded a light en-
CINE with forty boxes of dynamite and
sent it headlong into an oncOming
armored train loaded with federal
soldiers.
During the nghting around Escalon
the rebels captured two rapid-fire guns.
Gen. Campo fell back to the town of
Corralitos. which is few miles south
of this city. The former is built on
an eminence and more easily defended
than Escalon. The federals entered
Escalon. 1000 strong. loaded on three
freight trains, and, preceded by an
arnored train of three cars, began to
follow up the retreat4ng rebels.
Campo secured light engine and an
engineer. who agreed to accept the haz-
ardous task of starting it after II had
been loaded with the explosive. He ran it
until a down grade was reached, and
then, opening the throttle, jumped. The
wild locomotive tore down the track at
terrific speed.
The engineer of the armored train saw
his danger and stopped, but could not
escape the onrushfng menace. The lat
ter telescoped the engine and first car of
the federal train and derailed the last
two cars At the same instant the dyna-
mite exploded.
Gen. Campo justifies this method by de-
claring that in other fighting the fed
erals set fire to sagebrush. burning to
death both their own and rebel wounded.

RETURNING TO SERVICE.
Masters of Vessels Conclude the
Winter Is About Over.

Vessel masters who remained at their
homes in Maryland and Virginia since
the close of last year are gradually
Weakening up to the fact that the winter
is over and are placing their vessels in
commission for spring and summer serv-
ice on the river. In the past two or three
days the schooners James o. Wright,
kathleen, Silver Star. Isaac Solomon,
Eleanor Russell and Mary Francis. which
have been laid up for the past three
months. have brought cargoes into port.
and their masters report that the Peri,
BERTHE May. Mary Ann Shea. Five Sisters
and other craft are preparing to come out,
and will be here with wood and lumber
aboard during the coming week.
Advantage was taken of the lay up OF
the vessels for their owners to give them
an overhauling and painting, so that when
they go into service they will be in good
trim for the spring and summer work
without stopping for repairs. The
schoOners Lanclott, Nettie May, Ella,
John P. Robinson and Maud 8. returned
to service about week ago, so that with
in ten days the entire feet will be going
after cargoes and coming here with them.

SUCCESSOR
TO ADJUTANT GENERAL
Col. Heistand Believed to Be
First in Line for. the
Appointment.

Col H o. S. Heistand of the adjutant
generals department, who has just COM
pleted long tour of duty in the Philip
pines. reported at the War Department
this morning, in obedience to orders.
Originally it had been intended that he
should relieve Col II. p Mccain at the
War Department as chief assistant to the
adjutant general but since those plans
were made Brig. Gen. W. p. Hall has
become nominal adjutant general as a
result of the enforced retirement Of Gen
Ainsworth. Gen. Hall is absent on leave.
but is expected to arrive here about the
LIST of April. He will retire for age June
II, and probably will be granted an eX
tension of leave until that date.
Present Lineup to Continue.
AS it is not desired to appoint a perma-
nent adjutant general until after the re-
tirement of Gen. Hall, it is probable that
Col. Mccain who has been acting as adj
jutant general at the War Department
since the retirement of Gen Ainsworcl,
will continue to serve in that capacity
during the succeeding two months, and
that Col Heistand will make thorough
inspection of the general recruiting SER
ice of the army.
That wilhrequire him to visit the prin-
cipal recruiting stations and occupy his
time completely for the next two months.
Is Probable Successor.
As Col. Heistand is next in line Of pro-
motion and was specially brought from
the Philippines for duty in this city, the
general impression in army circles is
that he stands an excellent chance of ap-
pointment as adjutant general, to succeed
Gen. Hail. The four other colonies of
the department, who also are eligible for
the prospective vacancy, are Col. George
Andrews, stationed at New York; Col
George Simpson, stationed at Chicago,
and Col. Mccain and Col. James T. Kerr,
stationed at the War Department. They
rank in the order given.

RELATIVES FILE PROTEST
Probate of Mrs. Catherine N.
B. Jones' Will Opposed by
Niece and Granddaughter.

Miss Charlotte Z. Bates of this city,
niece of Mrs. Catherine NJ. b. Jones. wife
of bill Jones, the avenger," who died
March 4. at the age of eighty-three years,
and John S. Bates Of st. Louis. q grand
nephew of the deceased, today filed a
caveat protesting against the admission
to probate of the will and codicil Of Mrs.
Jones.
BY the will Miss Bates was left a half
interest in the residue of the estate. val
ued at $4,000. but by the codicil her
legacy was revoked and she was ex-
pressly excluded from sharing in the
estate. No provision is made for John S.
Bates in will or codicil. The codicil pro-
vides that William Jones. husband OF
the deceased, shall have the entire es-
tate. Robert w. Wells is named as ex-
ecutor in will and codicil.
The objecting relatives charge that the
will executed December 2, 1909, and the
codicil. April "a. 1871, were not the volun-
tary acts Of Mrs. Jones. Undue influence
is alleged against Robert w. Wells or
some other person unknown. The claim
is also made that for q long time prior
and subsequent to the dates which the
papers bear Mrs. Jones was OF unsound
mind and memory and incapable of exc
cutting valid will
Attorney j. j. Darlington appears for
the contestants.
Lunacy proceedings were instituted
against Mrs. Jones last year, and q trial
was held a few months ago, a jury re-
turning a verdict that she was not OF
sound mind This verdict, however, had
not been confirmed by the court prior 10
the death of Mrs. Jones.
Attorney ID. w. Baker and John r.
Shields represent the executor. and have
asked for the probate of will and eodicil.

REVENGE OF TILTED WOMAN.
Bridegroom Spattered With Rabbits
Blood as He Starts Honeymoon.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
PARIS, March Is, 1912.
A small crowd which gathered outside
one of the local mairies i'm Paris was first
terrified, and then immensely amused. by
an exciting incident which took place
just as a newly married couple were
crossing the pavement to drive away to
the wedding breakfast.
A woman standing near the door lifted
her apron. gripped a jug and hurled its
contents at the bridegroom. Here was
a case of vitriOl throwing. 1t was thought,
but to every ones amazement it was seen
that the bridegroom's' face was covered
with blood. He staggered and almost fell,
while every one wondered what was the
new substance that caused such fearful
injury The woman who had thrown the
LIQUID, however, solved the mystery be-
fore vengeful hands could be laid upon
her.
YES, I am his Tilted lover" she said,
"but it is only rabbits blopd. 1t is quite
good enough for him"

mony will begin tomorrow morning
Partridge is alleged to have secured
$1,000 from Rev. Eugene A. Hannah
pastor of ST Martins Church. by misrep-
resenting the financial status and pros
poets of corporation known as the Ma
tonal Lumber Company.
Father Hannah parted with $1,000 in

sensations of the defendant The funds
are said to have been the personal fortune
of the priest.

Two days before the statutory period
had elapsed Partridge was indicted.
August 49, 1908. Delay after delay has
ensued until nearly four years elapsed
before the case was called for trial
Counsel for the defense used seven chal-
1enges in excluding Roman Catholics from
the jury. The government inquired of
talesmen if they had any feeling or preju-
dice against the church or its priests.
United States Attorney Wilson is being
assisted in the prosecution by Attorney
Charles III. Turner as special assistant
under designation by the Department or
Justice. Attorneys A. A. Birney and e.

in Virginia, Kentucky and West Virginia.
Buildings had been erected and ma
chinery installed worth S11S,0OO. it is

MEXICAN REBELS SEEK
FUNDS FOR THEIR CAUSE
Take Advantage of Their Sue
cess in-State of Chi
huahua.

The rebels are taking advantage of their
success in Chihuahua to raise funds with
which to foster the revolution. State De-
partment reports declare that the insur-
gent government is, making efforts to col
lect mine taxes which are due the fed
eral government at the end of the month.
Efforts to force the banks and business
houses of Chihuahua to advance a loan
Of 100000 Mexican dollars are also be-
ing made by the insurgents. This loan is
to be guaranteed by that state.
That Americans in Mapimi, just north
of Torreon, in Durango, may receive pro-
lection, a detachment Of federal soldiers
has been DETECTED for that purpose. How
ever, ranches in other localities are being
sacked, according TO official reports.
State Department messages on the en-
gagement between the opposing forces
at Escalon are meager and cOntradicting.
The scantiness of dispatches is taken by
the State Department as an indication
that the federalS have the advantage,
from the fact that the rebels control the
telegraph lines. Fighting still continues
there according to reports.

Reports to the State Department show
that the state of Tabasco is perfectly
peaceful, and that there are no further
indications of any revolutionary move
ments at present. Americans and their
property have not been molested. Con-
ditions in Puebla, Morelos, Guerrero and
Sinaloa continue unchanged. 1t is re-
ported that the Pan-American railroad
i'm the state of Chiapas is no longer oper-
ating and that the Zapatistas near Pueb-
la have stopped railway communication
with the state of OaXacd.
