' Snipes-Kiners iy Drug Co, WORK OF AN INCENDIARY Senator Fulton's Seaside Cottage De stroyed By Fire. Astoria, Dec. 28. Word was received from Seaside today of the destruction by fire of C. W. Fulton's summer residence at that place. The flames were first discovered about 2:20 this morning. The whole building was enveloped at the time, and within a few minutes it and the contents were in ruins, nothing being saved. How the fire originated is not known, but as the house was on occupied and there had been neither fire nor light in it for some time it ia thought to be the work of an incendiary. The cottage was one of the most pre tentions at the beach. It was built last summer at a cost of $1200, and contained furniture yalued at about $700. There was no insurance. Shei iff Williams left this afternoon to investigate the matter, and if possible apprehend the guilty parties. . ; WASP? IN THE PULPIT. Scat of the Fiery Inaectn Made in the Minister' Pocket. A well-known Pittsburgh preacher tells an amusing incident of his early career, when he was serving a country church. The time was midsummer. One Sunday morning he was unable to find his conventional black frock, and at the last moment his wife persuaded him to wear an ordinary coat which had been lying on a porch for several days. A large family of wasps bad taken shelter in one of the roomy pockets, but in his hurry to get to the pulpit the young minister did not have time to ex amine the contents cf the coat. When he arrived at the country chapel the congregation was waiting. The services had already commenced by singing. As the aspiring preacher walked up the aisle a peculiar buzz was heard coming from the minister's per son. Entering the pulpit he began his sermon by reading a passage of Scrip ture. Then he started in on his sermon. He had not gone far with the discourse until he began to find something de cidely wrong. It annoyed him. Soon the sprightly wasps began to crawl out of their nest and flew about the min ister's head. He stood the ordeal as long as he could with any degree of peace of mind. Then the sermon was brought to a speedy close and with a fling the coat was cast out of a window- DOGS AT KNIGHTS' FEET. Why the Symbol I a Far-Reaching One. I noticed in one cf the newspapers that tfhe king of Siam. dnricg- his "ju bilee" visit to this country, went to Westminster abbey and that, seeing there the figure of some knight with his dog at his feet, informed his suite that, in England "favorite dogs were buried with their masters." says Good Words.'- It was a pity no cce corrected his majesty, fcr we may cepend upon it that our adherence to the abominable custom so cocmon in less civilized countries, perhaps ia Siam itself of putting to death the favorites of the dead, will pass into Siamese history as a faet. The deg in question was doubt less a greyhound. As being preeminently the knightly dog it was privileged in life to a special place behind its master's left hand at table and, after death, in effigy, to a place ct its master's feet upon the tomb. Say? Cel. Ilami'ton- Smith: "Hounds, shaped like the present, can not be traced in the old Frankish and Anglo-Saxon manuscripts; they are all coursing greyhounds, and his char acter is continued. with but few excep tions, es the emblem cf fidelity or gen tility, usually couched on monuments at the feet cf k-ihts. to the last period cf the recumbent figure." Eut the sym bol is more far-reaching than this, for the dog on the monuments cf Women was the emblem cf affectionate fidelity to their husbands; on t'he monuments of men of unquestioning faith in Provi- 85 REWARD.
