Prairie Fires Numerous.
Fires have been more numerous
in the past week than in any
spring for a number of years.
The high winds and the rail
road engines contributed largely
to the results.
The ( ire that was started in
Grant county near Hecla last
Wednesday extended to the Dis
mal river in Ulaine county uenr
Dunning. Not only was the
range in that entire county swept
but many are reported to have
lost their buildings , household
goods and hay.
Another fire in southwest of
Dunning in the vicinityof ' 'ootes
and ConwayVi ranches did con
siderable damage. It is reported
that Conway lost his hay range
two thousand bushels of corn
and all ol hiscorrells. The barn
being covered with sheet iron
was saved. Hy hard work Foote's
saved their buildings and hav but
had their range burned. No
stock was lost , but it is reported
that in the same fire the Black
ranch had two hundred cattle
hurne'l and the Wagner ranch
had twenty head of horses burn
ed. Some so badly that they
had to be shot.
Dtve Coulter had his bnrn
burned Monday night on his
farm ten miles west of Broken
HOW with its contents. We have
