Another Tale of DOxs' Devotion.

From the Buffalo Expr,ss.
Another tale of animal sagacity and de-
votion tc man has gone glimmering.
A fisherman fell through a hole in the
ice on Lake Erie. His faithful team of
dogs waited through the long, cold. bitter
night for him to reappear. When the gray
dawn broke, they set off in search Of help.
They found some other fishermen and by
methods approved for such cases-barking.
whining, tugging at coats and bounding
akead-they induced the other fishermen TO
&c to the rescue. After weary leagues of
marching, during which the brave animals
often had to renew their human comrades
courage. the hole in the ice was found.
There were also the broken sleigh and the
marks of the death struggle. Human III
telligence saw at once that the man had
beer, drowned for keeps. Unrcasoning ca
nine love insisted on a plunge into the icy
depths after the lost master. Baked in this
the indignant animals fed away into the
distance with dismal howls. Presumab bly,
they committed suicide farther up the lake
If they had consented to return to the
island. the appreciative population would
have feted them on shad roe and Florida
Strawberries.

Buildings erected according to the Jap
anese idea of what is necessary to give Sc
curity against earthquakes have stood for
centuries. Some wooden pasodas of great
height are known to have been in existence
for 100 years; and the old wooden museum
at Nara, in which preserved the mika-
dos rare treasures of ages, is fully twelve
hundred years old. This is a large, oblong
building made of logs of keaki Csee-ah-kee).
a reddish-brown wood, put together in the
lcg-cahin style, and il is supported merely
on wooden legs resting upon loose stones.
No part OF the building has been re-
newed except the roof. and this has
been put on only three times. The present
roof is made of tiles, and is about one hun
dred and fifty years old. This is, in all
probability, the Oldest wooden building in
the world, and it is certainly notable ex-
