The Massacre OF the Jews at Rou.
mania--C Conflicting Statements
Probable ExaggeratiOn Of Facts.

New York, June 5.-Private
dispatches from Constantinople
say the massacre of Jews in Rou-
mania was from four to eight thou
sand. Other stories heretofore tel
egraphed have been greatly exag-
Grated, and the massacre did not
exceed three hundred. Among
Jews in New York there is a man
ifest disposition to postpone ac-
tion..on the matter till more positive
news is obtained.
LONDON, June 5.--Dispatches
from the United States announce
the receipt there of reports Of a
massacre Of Jews by Christians in
Roumania. No advices have reach
ed here on the subject, and the
Continental news agents deny there
have been any recent outrages on
the Jews of Roumania. A dis
patch from Bucharest states that
a riot occurred last week at Batcus-
haly, a village in Moldavia, during
a local election. 1t is described as
an ordinary political disturbance,
which was quelled without the in
reference OF the troops.
New York, June 6.-The Is
raeIite citizens are much disturbed
by the unconGrmed rumcrs Of
wholesale butcheries in Roumania.
Telegrams sent to Sir Samuel
Montiferre, in London, and M.
Cremieux, President Of the Jewish
Society in Paris, begging thefulI-
est and latest information, have
not yet been answered. The Jew
ish rabbis preached on the subject
yesterday; one Of them expressing
q hope that the reports would prove
to be incorrect, audanother stating
an A fact that instead of Jews mo-
nopolizing the trade Of Roumanis

SNAKES BURNED UP ny TnE Tuou-
sAsp.-At Big Island township, Ma.
rion county, Ohio, ON the farm OF
Alexander Campbell, u great snake
hunt recently occurred. The party
was headed by Captain Jackson
Brady, who led hls gallant company
down into the tall prairie grass, and
surrounding a twenty.acre lot, sct
fire on the outer edge of the grass at
4 o'clock p. M. The grass burn
cd well, the flames rolling up ten
feet high, and as the fire advanced
the snakes rctreated into the centre,
sometimes making desperate efforts
to spring through the flames, but
the blaze being too heavy they were
killed in the attempt. AT 7.45 +.
NJ. the ground was burned over,
and Captain Brady went over the
field of carnage and picked up the
debris of the great armyof snakes,
and by actual count there was found
to be 1888 3snakes Of alls sizes. One
black racer was nine feet four inches
long and seven inches circumference
This may be considered q good
days work Cor this neighborhood a'
the snakes had become 80 kad thai
small children were afraid to go tc
school, and they even attacted some
adults, several having been bitten
on their boots, and it had become
common thing for fifty or q hun
dred snakes to chase men, women
and children across this prairie
The milk snakes were constantly
milking the cows, and thereby IN
tertering with the dairy business II

The "Sleeping Beauty" Of Ten.
nessec Is named Susan Caroline
Godsay, aud was born in 0bion
county, Tennessee, within ten miles
of Union City, where she now lives
with her mother. She was taken
sick when four years old with sup
posed chills aud fever, but tor more
than two years il batlled the skill OF
physicians. Then she fell into q
nervous sleep from which she has
not awoke since for a longer time
than twelve minutes. She usually
sleeps soundly from eleven o'clock
at night until about six in the morn
ing, and through the day awakes
about once an hour. Her waking
spells are never of less than four
nor more than twelve, but usually
about six minutes duration. In her
waking moments she speaks both
pleasantly and intelligcutly, ly,answers
promptly any questions asked her,
and appears quite happy and con-
tented. There is q total absence of
anything like respiration. A piece
Of the finest polished glass held to
her lips fails to disclose the slightest
trace of breath. Her pulse is per-
fectly still, and but for a nervous or
tremulous motion of the body, which
never ceases, you might at any time
call her dead. She has grown dur.
ing her affliction from a little chile
to about the average height OF he'
sex, and weighs ninety-six pounds
and although her body and hand
show her very poor in flesh, her fac
is full and smooth, and her fea ture
well developed.--[Memphis Sun.

HERE is a valuable bunch of pro-
veebs. Borrowed garments seldom
fit well. Hastgoften trips up its own
heels. Men often blush to hearwhat
they are not ashamed to do. What
is not needed is dear at any price.
He who buys too many superhu-
tiles may be obliged to sell his nee
essaries. A fool generally loses his
estate before he finds his folly. A
man that boards riches and enjoys
them not, is like an ass that carries
gold and eats thistles. Towers are
measured by tier shadows, and
great men by the calumniators.
That man who knows the world
will never be bashful, and that man
who knows himself will never be
impudeut. Success rides on every
hour--grapple it and you may win;
but without a grappIe It will never
go with you. Work is the weapon
of fhonor, andhc who lacks the weap'
on win never triumph.
