At every of a mile he would encounter the remains of a human being who had been burned to death. For years, it is estimated, the value of actual property annually consumed by fire in this country reaches $250,000,000, .and another sum of about like proportions is spent for the maintenance of fire departments, waterworks, insurance premiums, etc., to prevent still greater losses.
