-Mischieyt Urchin Caught.

Thomas Burke, years old, of 70 King
street, was arrested by Policeman O'Brien
Of the Leonard street station last evening
on charge Of sending in fire alarms. There
were five false alarms from West and Beach
streets during the afternoon and early
evening. Burke was arrested as he was
running away from the fire box at 8 o'clock.
He told the police that he only sent in that
one. but gave the names Of other boys
who, he said. sent in the other four. The
police will arrest them as soon as they return
to their homes.
Each time an alarm was sent in three
engines, two areboats, two trucks, water
tower and three chiefs responded. When
asked why he sent in the alarm Burke said
that since the big fire in King street on
Friday night the boys in the neighborhood
were sending in alarms to see how
soon the engines would respond.
