You can locate this element via Xpath or Css selector without using its attribute, which it does not have any.
For example:
//a[@class='chosen-single']/span
a[class='chosen-single'] span

Still not working the xpath expression I used is: driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[@class='chosen-single']/span")).click(); Commented Sep 19, 2016 at 8:32

<div id="id_center_chosen" class="chosen-container chosen-container-single chosen-with-drop chosen-container-active" style="width: 195px;" title=""> <a class="chosen-single" tabindex="-1"> <span>None</span> Commented Sep 19, 2016 at 9:58
You can use below snippet:
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id='id_center_chosen']/span")).click();
OR
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"id_center_chosen\"]/descendant::span[text()='None']")).click();

Best option would be try locating the element using s Selenium IDE with Firefox. Then Navigate to Options->Format and select the language that your are working on. Then Again from the IDE click on the "Source" tab and look how Selenium IDE perform the element identification part.
