ish rabbi. | was pleased to hear from
him that his coreligioi.ists in Samar-
kand are not under the same objectiona-
bic sumptuary laws as in Bokhara In
Russian Turkestan the jew enjoys al
most equal privileges with the Sart
For instance, Sart may open a shop in
sthe Russian part of Samarkand. but a
jew may not. Over pleasant meal of
pistachio nuts, rasins, bread and salt
fish the rabbi told me much about the
Jews of central Asia
They are Sephardinl, it appears, not
AsbkinaZim, as in Russia and Poland.
The rabbi and all his people in Samar-
kand are of the tribe Of Judah When
ventured to speak to him of the hypothe-
sis advanced by some misguided people,
that the Jews Of central Asia were rem
nants of the 10 lost tribes, he secuted
the idea. I'VE all know" he said,
that we are of the tribe of Judah -

The draft was duly forwarded by the

was sent to London correspondent. 1t

stantinople branch, where it was duly
presented for payment TO the sultan

DEATH OF A HERO.
General Hincks Succumbs to Wounds Re
ceived During the War.

ceiyed During the War.
CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Feb 15.-General
Edward W. Hincks died about O'Clock
last evening at his home here after long
and painful sickness, resulting from
wounds received in the war.
General Hincks was a war horse of tile
fighting type in the dark days of the rt-
bellion. He was breveted brigadier gen
eral of the United States army and COM
mended by an act of congress for his
bravery.
That General Hincks was the first volun-
teer of the war is verified by known cor
respondence which passed between Major
General Robert Anderson and himself
The only living relative of General
Hincks is his brother, who has attended
him for the past several months. His
brother is veteran of the war, and both
were carried off the field at Antietam sup
posed to have been mortally wounded
General Edward Winslow Hincks was
born in Bucksport, Me-, May 80, 1880, and
received the rudiments of his education
In his native town, and at the age of Is re.
moved to Bangor, where for four years he
served as apprentice upon the Bangor
Daily Whig and Courier. Coming to
Boston in 1849 he continued in the print
fng and publishing business until 1855,
when he was appointed to position in
the Office of the secretary of the common
wealth, and prepared for publication the
state census of 1855. In this latter year he
was representative from Boston in the
legislature
