miles south of Cananea, which created

Heron in New York City Causes
Great Excitement.
MANY FIRES ON MANHATTEN
Last Year on Manhattan Island and
in Bronx and Richmond BoToughs
There Were a Total Of 1850
Fires.

NEW YORK. Sept. l3.-tspecial.) -
One OF the strangest visitors that ever
came voluntarily to the metropolis
scared in from the clouds few days
ago and perched on the head OF the
statue OF the discoverer Of America
that surmounts the lofty column In
Columbus Circle. The visitor was a
great, long.legged heron and so unusual
was the sight OF such great denizen
OF the air in that place that trolley
ears and trucks stopped and the broad
roadway became choked with staring
people. Those Of the crowd who lived
nearby sprinted home for firearms and
soon pistol bullets began to patter
around the monument. The feathered
visitor, in surprise. SCARED aloft and
foated down Eighth avenue, the ANA
teur Nimrods following in hot pursuit.
Presently the heron perched on the
chimney Of big apartment house, and
some huntsman in a window across the
street levelled a rifle and shot the
unfortunate thing through the neck.
The heron fell as another victim to the
cruel inhospitality Of great city.
Fires Cause Great Loss.
On Manhattan Island, with its con-
tipuous boroughs OF the Bronx and
Richmond there were 1850 fires last
wear which did total damage Of 49,
27l,955. OF the fires the causes OF
2.gsl were never ascertained, and these
will forever remain mysteries OF the
city. Only twenty-three fires were at
tributed to incendiarism and but a
dozen persons we're sentenced for ar
son The causes Of some OF these fires
in a great city are instructive The
greatest cause was carelessness In the
use of matches, to which 757 were at
tributable. Carelessness in the use Of
cigars. cigarettes and pipes was re-
sponsible for 4O4. Children playing
with matches or fire started 244. Only
seventy.f five fires were caused by defec-
tive insulation, in a city fairly en-
wound in electric wiring. The much
discussed use Of kerosense in lighting
stoves resulted in the fire department
being called on but four times record
indicating to what extent gas and cleo
tricity for cooking have replaced the
old.time kitchen range.
