A STRANGE disorder has seized upon
cattle in Cromwell and Rocky Hill,
Conn. 1t has many of the symptoms of
hydrophobia. The animals begin by
jumping, moaning, and believing they
grow worse, and in three days they die.
If approached, they become furious and
dangerous. All attacked by the disease
have died.

A STRANGE scene was witnessed by an
English visitor at Odessa on the first
day of the present Jewish year. Late
in the afternoon large number of the
1000 or 10000 Jews inhabiting Odessa
wendell their way toward the sea, with
the purpose of throwing their last years
sins into it, in order to begin the new
year with clean soul. They stood
about in groups, closely packed togeth-
er in some places, looking toward the
water, reciting prayers or reading
Psalms or portion of Isaiah. The
groups were formed for the most part
of listeners, with man, and in a very
few instances woman-an old woman
with spectacles on her thoroughly jew
ish nose-reading to them. Some of
the people turned their empty pockets
inside out and shook them toward the
sea. Others merely made a sign of
throwing something into it.
