the death on board ship was recorded of Miss Caroline
Hall, of Boston, a water-color painter who had long resided in
Milan. Three years previously she discarded female dress and
lived as "husband" to a young Italian lady, also an artist, whom
she had already known for seven years. She called herself "Mr.
Hall" and appeared to be a thoroughly normal young man, able to
shoot with a rifle and fond of manly sports. The officers of the
ship stated that she smoked and drank heartily, joked with the
other male passengers, and was hail-fellow-well-met with
everyone. Death was due to advanced tuberculosis of the lungs,
hastened by excessive drinking and smoking.

Ellen Glenn, _alias_ Ellis Glenn, a notorious swindler, who came
prominently before the public in Chicago during 1905, was another
"man-woman," of large and masculine type. She preferred to dress
as a man and had many love escapades with women. "She can fiddle
as well as anyone in the State," said a man who knew her, "can
box like a pugilist, and can dance and play cards."

In Seville, a few years ago, an elderly policeman, who had been
in attendance on successive governors of that city for thirty
years, was badly injured in a street accident. He was taken to
the hospital and the doctor there discovered that the "policeman"
was a woman. She went by the name of Fernando Mackenzie and
during the whole of her long service no suspicion whatever was
aroused as to her sex. She was French by birth, born in Paris in
1836, but her father was English and her mother Spanish. She
assumed her male disguise when she was a girl and served her
time in the French army, then emigrated to Spain, at the age of
35, and contrived to enter the Madrid police force disguised as a
man. She married there and pretended that her wife's child was
her own son. She removed to Seville, still serving as a
policeman, and was engaged there as cook and orderly at the
governor's palace. She served seven successive governors. In
consequence of the discovery of her sex she has been discharged
from the police without the pension due to her; her wife had died
two years previously, and "Fernando" spent all she possessed on
the woman's funeral. Mackenzie had a soft voice, a refined face
with delicate features, and was neatly dressed in male attire.
