The minister of justice, NJ. Badaru,
has been obliged to resign because he is
suspected of being friendly to the Jews.
When practicing at Jassy as lawyer,
he had many wealthy Jews as clients,
and it is alleged that number OF Jews
have sought his protection at the minis

Jews in Cochin

The following is a summary Of table
giving a detailed statement of the num-
ber of Jews in the Cochin government,
as compiled by the superintendent Of the
census operations of the Indian govern
ment with regard to Cochin:
The following is a summary of this
table: There are ,137 Jews, 54S males
and $50 females, of whom 314 males and
246 females are unmarried. Of these
$50 live in the country, and there are
100 widows. Table X groups the popu-
latiOn according to language, and there
are stated to be 10 persons in the state
of Cochin-6 male and female-whose
vernacular is Hebrew 1 can not iden-
tify this Hebrew-speaking Minyan, but
suggest that they are Yemenites who
speak Hebrew, but whose mother tongue
is Arabic. Table XII-A tabulates elm
firmities by Castles, Tribes or Races
There are stated to be two Jews insane
one blind, and one leper. This is quite
insignificant proportion, but we are told
that no less than fifteen per cent of the
Jews suffer from elephantiasis- grim
proportion-but of the Mohammedans
nearly ninety per cent. are thus afflicted
This disease is by Mr.. Koder attributed
to their indulgence in fsh-a conf1ma-
ton of DR.. Jonathan Hutchinson's s
views. We saw one or two cases which
certainly inspired us with horror and
pity, but can not say that CHASTITY de-
formities were anything like as notice
