FOREST FIRES SWEEP
TOWN OF PLYMOUTH
Buildings on the Horace Tenney Farm
Destroyed and Valuable Timber
Tract Ruined.

LUDLOW, April 27.-Word has
reached this place of a disastrous for
est fire in the town of Plymouth near
the Reading town line which has de-
stroyed the farm buildings on what is
known as the Horace w Tennev farm
and ruined the valuable growth of
young timber on between so and 80
acres of land in that section.
The buildings, which had not been
occupied for some time, were owned by
George Merrill of Ludlow and were not
insured.
It required hard work upon the part
of large number of volunteer fire
fighters to subdue the flames, but con
ditions in the woods are such that q
fire once started is bound to SWEEP
over large territory. Unless rain
falls within a few days conditions in

MOVIE COMEDIAN
DIES AT FLATBUSH
John Bunny's Round, Jovial Face Be-
came known in Pictures Around
Entire World

NEW YORK, April 27.-John Bunny.
whose round, jovial face, laughing from
the moving picture screens, is known
around the world, died yesterday of a.
complication of diseases in his home in
Flatbush after an illness of a few weeks.
Mr. Bunny was nnquestlonably the most
popular celebrity that the movies have
produced. OF no actor in any branch of
the stage can it more truly be said that
his face was his fortune His beaming
countenance, flashed simultaneously on
tens of thousands of screens through the
country, delighted, the young and old
alike.
Whenever he walked on the street he
was sure to be followed. by an admiring
throng. He had to give up dining in res
taurants because he grew weary of being
gazed at continually.
Three years ago Mr.. Bunny made his
first trip to England. He said he did not
| believe he personally knew a soul in the
island But when he walked in the streets
of London the attention he created was
| as great as in New York.-~fgThere's funny
Bunnyi" the children would cry as they
| fell into the procession that logged his
| footsteps In Paris and Berlin the expe-
| riences of this odd genius were the same
Not until 1910 did Mr.. Bunny discover
that he could capitalize his face and make
it earn a fortune. For years he had been
earning less than 800 a week as a legiti-
mate actor and in musical comedies. Then
he went into the movies as a flyer" In
a year his salary had risen to $500 week
all the year round and he collected royal
ties in addition on the hundreds of films
III which he appeared.
Early this year he temporarily left NOV
ing pictures to head vaudeville company
and it was while in this work that he
became i'll. He had been able to name his
own salary, so eager We're the people to
see the real Bunny in the flesh
The actor was 80 years old He was
born in Brooklyn. His father had come
from Penzance, Eng, and the son was the
first of nine generations who had not
adopted a seafaring life. For a time he
worked in a store, but at 20 launched out
| as a minstrel man.
Mr.. Bunny's marked physical peculiari
ties limited his range of roles when he
graduated to the legitimate stage But he
was much sought after to act certain parts
One of his big successes was in "rube'
role in Way Down East
In 20 years on the stage he appeared
with Maude Adams, Sol Smith Russell
Annie Russell, and in companies managed
by William A. Brady, Charles Frohman
Henry w. Savage, Daniel Frohman and tn,
Shuberts.
