Wolff's Continental Telegraph Company
of Berlin, with sub.agencies in the princi-
pal cities of Europe, knows nothing of any
recent disturbances in Roumania. Tie
manager of that company declares the tel
egram of Adolphe Cremieu to be an exag-
geration, and says all reports touching the
slaughter or banishment of the Jews from
Roumania are baseless. Diligent enquiry
here and on the continent fails to discover
any foundation for the terrible stories
which have been published in the United
States.

A Curious Manner: Of Deciding a
Claim.

Two gentleman of high birth, the
one Spaniard and the other Ger
man, having rendered the Emperor
Maximilian the Second many services,
they each, for recompense, demanded
his daughter Helena in marriage. The
prince, who entertained equal respect
for each of them, could not give the
preference to either; and after much
delay he told them that, as both had
equal claims to his attention and re
gard, he could not give lis definite
consent to either of them to marry his
daughter, and that they must decide il
by their own strength and address but
as he did not wish to risk the loss of
either or both by suffering them to
fight with offensive weapons, he had
ordered large bag to be brought,
and lie who should be successful
enough to put his rival in it, should
obtain his daughter. This extraordi-
nary duel took place in presence Of
the whole imperial court, and lasted
nearly an hour. At length the Span
lard yielded, and the German, the
Baron Of Talbert, when he had put
his rival into the bag,took him on his
back and placed him at the feet Of the
Emperor, who, on the following day,
gave the victor his daughter Helena in
marriage.

The Schenectady Star is puzzling
itself over the conundrum why girls
can dress as thiply as they do and still
keep warm, and relates the following
startling experience; "We once rode
with girl in an open cutter fifteen
miles, on one Of the coldest nights of
winter, and while we sat frozen stiff as
a stake, our teeth chattering like casti-
nets, she kept up an animated conver-
sation, every now and then exclaiming,
"Oh, isn't this delightful Don't you
enjoy it?" When we arrived at our
destination, Notwithstanding we were
dressed great deal warmer than our
fair companion, she had to lift us cut
Of the cutter and conduct US to the
tropical kitchen of farmhouse. On
the return trip we were frozen to death
and she drove the corpse home. 1t
must be that girls are a great deal
tougher than we men people"

William Tell Outdone.

Two young men, Alfred Kibbling
and Charles Greenwood, residing in
the town of Dublin, N. H., having
procured a pistol amused themselves
by each in turn shooting an apple
from the others head. The shooting
was quite accurate, and the apple was
pierced several times; but fsally
Greenwood failed to elevate his piece
enough, and the bullet passed through
Kibbling's scalp. 1t entered near the
forehead, glanced up on the skull bone,
and came out two inches further back,
directly in the centre of the top of his
head, without doing serious injury.
The fun commenced by each in turn
holding an apple in his hand for the
other to shoot at, when, finding their
aim quite accurate, it was transferred
to the head, with the above result. The
distance form the marksman to his
mark was about twelve feet. Kibbling
was not at all concerned at his wound,
and left the field, Dragging that he
was the better marksman Of the two

HIrPoPHAGY, or the eating Of horse
flesh, appears to be steadily on the
increase in France, though "horse
beef" as this article of diet is some
what paradoxically termed, still brings
less than half the price of OK beef.
According to the Food JoWndl, there
were slaughtered in Paris. from the
9th Of July, 1866, when the first horse
tiesh butchery was opened, to the 3lst
Of December in the same year, 9O2
horses "a few mules and asses being
included), and their flesh, averaging
for each about 40 pounds III weight,
gave a total of about $50 tons. In
1857 the total consumption Of this kind
Of meat rose to 1870 tons; and in the
following year to rather more than $50
tons. In these two years and half
the totals were 5,475 horses, yielding
l,095. tons of meat, without including
the livers, tongues, hearts, etc, which
were also used as food. From other
not less completely reliable returns
the consumption in the rest of France
ia believed to bring the total up to
1000 tons. The use of horse beef is
said to have increased considerably last
year. when butcheries especially de-
voted to it were opened ut Toulouse,
Sedan. Toulan. Charleville, Angers.
Marseilles, Havre and other towns.

A WRITER on the history Of anasthe-
ala shows that since the first century
of our era anasthetic agents of one
kind or another have been in use for
the relief OF physical pain. He says:
ave find in the writings of physicians
of the Roman Empire in the first CELL
tury clear evidence of the practice of
surgical anesthesia. How long the
practice had then been in use, and
whether it was of Roman origin, or
had descended from the Greek school,
are doubtful points. The probabilities
are that the practice came down from
the Greek school; for the Romans
were hard copyists, and the medicine
employed by them to produce anas-
thetic sleep was we'll known to the
Greeks, and was, in fact, 4 vegetable
product of the isle of Greece the med
icine was 'atropa mandrigora, COM
