onTuesday when he was awakened by the
explosion of either lamp or bottle OF
vinegar spirits caused by fire on the
inside of the boats cabin where he was
asleep, and which fire it would appear
was the work of an incendiary. He
says he retired at II o'clock last night
and soon fell asleep; that he was ava
kened in the manner and at the time
stated. He Immediately called for help
from ashore as lond as he could, for he
was half choked with the smoke. Two
men came out in skiffs, and while he
was lying on the deck in semi-con-
scious condition they managed to quell
the fire, but not without much difficulty.
Captain Gashey's trousers were par
TALLY destroyed, but not the pockets,
in which he had $500 in currency be-
fore retiring. This money was found
to have been stolen as were also three
dozens of diamond back tefrapins, in
which industry he was engaged. The
boat was damaged to the extent of $3.50
including the complete loss of the
mainsail and the captain estimates the
loss of his personal effects at almost
the same figures. Having lost clothes,
money and all belongings, and Captain
Gashey being a w. O.. w. member,
the members of the local fraternity
promptly came to his rescure and rem
dered necessary assistance. He report
Ell the matter to the sheriff who is at
work on the case, with a strong clue as
to the guilty party who, if apprehended,
will be charged with burglary and
arson.
