A Fight With ? ocs Constructor.

Just after the close Of & circus per-
Torrance at Fargo, p. T., this alter
noon, a huge boa constructor n dpython
made their escape from their cage. and,
not having been fed for two II three
days, seized upon a young camel and
crushed it to death in an instant. One
of them went for a beautiful Indian an
telope and would have killed it in q mo-
ment, but a number Of circus men came
to the rescue with pitehforks and goads
and drove the serpent into a corner.
Jennie Hickey, the young girl who acts
as snake-charmer and has charge of the
monster, was summoned and struck the
largest snake twice with her whip. He
darted furiously at her, tWirled himself
around her, and in II second OF two
would have crushed her in his coils, as
he hadthe baby camel, but, with great
presence Of mind, she drew the long,
keen knife she always carries for such
emergencies and cut the huge reptile in
two. It wa a narrow escape, and the
girl was greeted with a round OF APP
plause when she came into the ring to-
night. Fargo Dispatch to 81. Loais

Sunk at Sea.

LONDON, ENG, January p.
The steamer Cimbria, from Hamburg for
New York was sunk in the German ocean by
a collision with the Sultan on Friday night.
Details of the disaster show that the loss
OF life must have been fearful. A dispatch
from Hamburg, sent by the Hamburg Ameri-
can Steamship Company, says 50 far fifty six
persons from the Cimbria have been landed.
A number of them are at Meser light house.
The names of these are not yet ascertained.
The Cimbria left Hamburg on Thursday
with $50 passengers and a crew numbering
ITO. She ran aground before leaving the Elbe,
but got off with the flood tide, with the assist
ance of the steamer Hansa, without damage,
and she put to sea at 2:30 in the afternoon.
Friday morning she came into collision dur
ing thick fog, off Borkam with the steamer
Sultan. The Cimbria sank in a short time.
When the boat with thirty nine passengers
arrived the company sent out the steamer
Hansa and the four largest available steam
ers Mt Coxhaven to search for the other boats
of the Cimbria. The West India steamer Ba-
varia also left during the night with a sim
liar object. The steamer Sultan, which suf-
tered heavy damage in the collision, has ar
rived in the Elbe.
The Cimbria sustained such severe injuries
in the collision that it at once became APP
parent she must sink. Almost Immediately
the officers, therefore, did all in their power
to save lives. Without a moments loss Of
time the life belts were distributed among the
passengers and the order was given to lower
the boats. This, however, in consequence Of
the vessels Keeling over on her side, was
found to be very difficult on one side and alb
solutely impossible on the other.
