Horse Flesh as Food.

Our Berlin correspondent writes: The
price of beef, mutton and pork has in
creased SO much throughout Germany
that hundreds of households Of the small
official class and artisans and laborers
cannot afford to see these meats on their
tables. Recourse Is now had to horse
flesh, which is much cheaper, though
the extra demand has run up the price
Of this also. In the month of October
816 horses were slaughtered in Berlin for
domestic consumption, an increase of Is
per cent. as compared with last year. At
Konigsberg, town with about tenth
of the Inhabitants of Berlin, $50 horses
went to the butchers. At Caplsruhe the
increase in the consumption Of horse
flesh is cent per cent. as compared with
last year, and Dortmund follows suit; at
Cassell it is 80 per cent, and as Bochum
and Stuttgart it is 90 per cent; ct Leip-
sic it is a little over go per cent; at
Brunswick and Lubbock it is over 80 per
cent. The increase is also great at Ham
burg and Bremen In the former town
the price per pound is now seven pence.

Croatian Gypsies Indignant.

Several thousand gypsies of Croatia
held an open air indignation meeting re-
Gently at Odra to protest against the
vexatious measures of the Croatian au-
thorities, who desire to put stop to
their rowing habits, and who for that
purpose threaten to set fire to the gypsy
encampments. fhe meeting enthusi-
astically cheered the orators. who warm
ly defended the time honored privileges
of the race, especially the free vagabond
life inherited from their forefathers from
time immemorial. The meeting was
unanimous as to the necessity of appeal
ing to some protector to intercede for
them.
The majority looked to the ban of
Croatia, Count Khuen-Hederoary, but
there was strong minority in favor Of
applying to the Archduke Joseph, the
king of the Hungarian gypsies, while a
few of the more radical orators recon-
mended emigration en- masse from the
inhospitable soil of Croatia to Bosnia
and Herzegovina. This suggestion was,
however, rejected on show of hands,
whereupon the meeting became very
noisy, and a free fight ensued between
the Banites and 'Josephites, the meeting
finally breaking up without arriving at
any decision. The proceedings through
out were in the gypsy language, and sew
eral of the speakers displayed remark
able oratorical talents.-Vienna Dispatch

Tllank-Tai.

The king of AMMAN, country Of
southeastern Asia, now under the pro-
tectorate of France, is boy years old,
Thank-Tai by name. He is but NOM
inal sovereign, with very little power,
but the Annamites and the French mas
ters of the country pay him royal honors.
He is said to be a rather melancholy
youth, much given to day dreams. This
is not very strange, perhaps, since he
lives almost alone. He studies not little,
however, and lately, when one of his
tutors, in reading to him out of an ori-
entail book of philosophy, faltered and
stumbled in attempting to explain a
passage, the child king said to him, seri-
ously, but without severity:
"Had you not better, before undertake
ing to explain those books, look them
over and see whether you comprehend
them yourselfT
The tutor, much distressed at this mild
rebuke, stammered out an apology, and,
gathering up his books, went away to
carry out Thank-Tai's suggestion.
In order to brighten the young kings
existence, the French governmentrecent-
ly sent to him from Paris a number of
toys of very interesting and ingenious
sort.
Previous to their arrival King Thank
Tai had no other way of amusing him
self than by watching, hour after hour,
the red goldfishes swimming about in a
small pond near his chamber. 1t is
hoped that the playthings will somewhat
relieve his tendency to melancholy -
