 At F 30yesterday morning an alarm of fire was sounded and it was soon found that the residence of 8. Morgan Smith on Orange Avenue was in flames. The fire had gained such | headway before it was discovered that no assistance could be rendered. The occupants had barely time to save themselves The loss is between 1 $500 and $2O00. About S200 in cash | was lost as well as some valuable | jewelry. Sixty-seven dollars in gold and silver were found in the ruins, and l also one of the valuable diamonds has been found. No one knows the origin | of the fire. It is the opinion of some l that it is the work of an incendary, | but the general opinion is that the fire started from a defective electric wire.

 An Indian coyote dog straved into town Wednesday to take in the sights of the metropolis. He was an innocent looking canine and possessed a gull ible ceuntryfied air He soon had 8 fight and every hummer deg in town consisting of about legion-jump- ed on him. The Indian dog formed into flying wedge and circled like a whirlwind, snapping right and left. He was no respector of dogs and few there were of the mangy pack forming the attack that did not feel the sharpness of his teeth. Genuine human sympathy generally goes out to the under dog in the fight, ard | when the coyote cur escaped from the legion little the worse for the fight, but ! with many of his assailants limping and bleeding, a mighty cheer went up for hIm He left town immediately. and is no doubt now refecting upon the wickedness of city life.
 A charitably inclined tourist of the female persuasion stepped from the train one day lately and approached one of the pitiful looking old centena- rian Indians who frequent all trains in the hopes of picking up dime in some manner. The aforesaid tourist went down in her pocket Git is not in our sphere to tell how she found her pocket and fshed up three coppers and with an air of self-satisfaction handed them to Poor Lo. The re- cipient of the lady's bounty scrutiniz- ed his gift very closely, turning the cOppers over and over, and another old Indian joined in the investigation. The benevolent tourist went down in her pocket again with the intention of bestowing a blessing upon tLe sec ond Indian, but the old beggars design ed her intent and both beat a hasty retreat with considerable abruptness. It Is evident that Poor To has no use or copper and considers those who oestow such gifts as very cheap.
