JAPANESE SOCIETY DAME
ENTERS MILITARY SERVICE
(By Associated Press.)

Toxic, idly 1s.-The army con-
scription examiners in session at a
town in the interior were astounded
recently when a young Japanese
woman dressed fashionably and car
rying a parasol walked into the Of
fee and requested examination for
military service. When the applicant
examined for military service. When
the applicant explained that She
was man and not woman, the ex-
aminers recalled an old Japanese
custom of concealing sex, q custom
which, as 1t afterward appeared. the
applicant was following.
Old-time tradition held that a
physically weak boy should be
brought up as a girl from the be-
lief that the child would thus escape
the curse of death. The boy was at.
tired in female costume and his hail
had been allowed to grow long like
a girls.
Yasukichi, the son of Kinzo Mish'
ikawa, the army applicant, waG
brought up under this tradition
which is followed now only in re
mote districts. He learned to sew
and to cook. He entered cottor
mill at Osaka and worked as fe
male operative. No one suspected hi
real sex.
The examiners found the yount
man of perfect physique and healtl
and he has entered the army ii
mans clothes.

Allowed Recount
In IS Precincts
OF DupaI County

Jacksonville. July 19.-In the cir
cult chambers at 1 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, Judg d. A. Simmons is
sued an order in the mandamus pro-
ceedings of the case of w. v. Knott
against the Duval county canvasst-ig
board, vacating the former writ and
issuing an alternate writ OF mandamas
directing the county canvassing board
to make recount of the votes in all
of the county precincts as originally
applied for. The former order OF
Judge Simmons was that the recount
should be made in only FIVE of the
thirteen precincts. namely Pilot Town.
Eastport, Gilmore. Dinsmore and
Maxville. The other eight precincts

Messrs Cats and Knott, gubernator-
ial candidates, and the writ of pro
hibition was to stay Judge Simmons
