When the head of a Bulgarian family
perceives that he is about to die, he
sends for the priest and begins to bar
gain with him about the cost of his
funeral. The moment he dies, all the
pots, pans and kettles in the house are
turned upside down to prevent his soul
taking refuge in any of them, and great
care is taken to prevent either man or
animal-especially cat or dog-from
stepping across his body, as otherwise,
in the opinion of his family, he would
turn into a vampire, and so be a continual
nuisance to them and their n%eighbors.
The body is buried without any coffin,
in a shallow grave, and left there for
three years, during which time many
offerings of food and wine are placed
upon it. At the end of the third veal
the bones of the dead man are dug up
and carefully washed, put into IA linen
bag, and laid before the altar in the
village church, and, after receiving the
blessings of the priest, are finally buried

A FRIGHTENED NEGRO.

His Lightning Retreat Mt tho Battle of
Pea Ridge.
THE worst frightened man ] ever
saw" said Judge Fitzgerald, of San
Francisco, twas at Pea Ridge, when
we were attacked by the federal troops.
For a body servant | had n strapping
big negro boy, whose duty it vas to
look after my blankets and r~ations,
and negro-like he was forever crawling
away into so ne out-of-the-w way place to
sleep just as we were expecting the
advance the federals opened fire on us
at rather close range. We were on the
skirmish line, and in n moment our
men were deployed in battle array.
Just as the fire began to grow heavy l
heard a piercing yell and saw my negro
boy flying along between the lines.
Every step would have measured fif-
teen feet, and every time his foot struck
the ground he would yell % Lord! loud
enough to be heard in both camps.
With him he had my blankets and ra-
tons, and at every jump he would
leave a portion of one or the other in
his wake. AS far as | could see him he
long after he was out of sight | could
hear him yell. He had been sleeping
exactly midway between the lines when
the battle opened, and it is not surpris-
ing that he was scared. Two weeks
elapsed before he returned to camp, but
he never could be induced to talk of his
Pea Ridge experience. San Francisco

THE DRAFT.Rlot IN BOSTON.
How the Disturbance was oueiled by the
Military.

HOW the Disturbance was OueNed by the
Military.
Boston became infected with the
draft-riot fever in July, 1868, just about
the time the more serious disturbances
in New York were being quelled, On
the night of the 18th two of the provost
marshal's assistants were distributing
notifications to drafted men, when one
of them was struck by a woman whose
house they had visited. They tried to
arrest her, but a small mob collected
and assaulted the officer. The police
came up and stopped the row tempo
rarily. but later in the evening a big
and threatening crowd began to gather.
The military authorities ordered out
the Lancers, the nth battery, the 44th
regiment, three companies from Fort
Warren, a company of regulars and n
squad of cavalry. At the same time the
entire police force of the city was
placed on duty. A little after eight
o'clock nearly one thousand men and
boys collected in front of the 18th bat
tery's armory, on Cooper street. They
were warned to keep away, but replied
with n volley of stones and other mis-
siles, which broke the windows in the
building and wounded several of the
soldiers. A rush was made by the mob
toward the armory and an entrance
had been effected when a gun loaded
with. canister was fred into them with
deadly effect. Then, seeing that the
crowd was still sullen and defiant, the
troops made a charge with fixed bay
onets. Six or eight Of the rioters were
killed on the spot and n large numbet
wounded. The prompt and decisive &C.
ton of the military and police com
pletely cowed the lawless element and
thereafter there were no outbreaks of
any consequence in Boston.-Chicago

ADVENTURES WITH SNAKES.
Stories or n Mar who Had Seen Lots oil
tho Reptiles.

tho Reptiles.
There is n citizen OF Nuidosta who
has had some startling experiences with
poisonous snakes during his life. lie is
entirely responsible, docs not like mo-
toricty, and seldom talks Of his adven-
lures with reptiles, because he fears his
recital of them would not be believed,
and he does not care to figure as n Mum
chausen among snake story %tcllers.
Recently, while wading in n branch,
he stepped or a large water moccasin
and narrowly escaped being bitten, as
he had crushed the body of the reptile
and aroused its wrath. 1t did show
fight, however, chasing him to dry
land,
"On still another OCCASION" says this
hero of many battles with snakes, II
had cause to tramp all day with some
companions in n swamp. and it was
during snake time of the year. During
that day | had the misfortune to step on
as many as three live and wriggling
moccasins at different times, but had
the good luck, as usual, to get off with
out having their poisonous fangs stuck
into my flesh. No other one of the party
had such close calls. 1t all fell to my
lot.
AT another time, while | was push
ing my way through a thick and boggy
swamp, one of my feet broke through
the m~oss-covcred mud, and it threw me
forward. | caught at Il tussock just by
me, and threw my hand on a large
moccasin, 1t tinchcd, but did not move.
l was stuck in the mud Its forlted
tongue flashed in my face. ! could not
get up without Il struggle, and | was
afraid to make the effort. fearing that
Il movement on my part would bring n
strike in the face. | held my breath,
while my hand went tn my belt. and l
drew thcrcfrom a pistol. In an instant
l got in the first blow. and the snakes
head went off A friend stood on II
tussock five feet away watching the
tragcdy-in one act.
Recently | was hunting cows in the
pine woods. | rode a mule. | was go
ing at a slow lopc. Suddenly the beast
threw its head down with a snort and
plowed the earth with both fore hoofs
in a desperate effort to take up. | went

of the mules neck. and would have
pitched over my head on the spot had |
not seized the animals ears, onci in each
hand, as | struggled wildly to prevent u
fall. My head and chest went full over
its head, but my grip on the long ears
and my feet locked around its neck
saved me for the time.
Thus poised in Il ridiculous attitude
my beast regained its footing, and hen
began backing and slamming me about
against brush and sapling until | rolled
off on the ground. When | gained my
feet ] discovered a large r~attlcsnakc in
coil under Il palmetto bush just in front
of the spot where the mule made the
desperate effort to stop, and if | had
gone over the animals head | would
have fallen head foremost upon the
deadly reptile.
