to iT line of lire , vvo found thnt where
111 | crossed n little ravlno the Ilainos woi

flnmo , BiilTorlniT hrlof Tortures of sufTo-
unllon niul n sovcro XUiTcliip nnd snmrt-
Ing of our eyes , con ml by the intense
liont nnd pungent snioko.

solvoa on the hope thnt wo ahoultt yet
oecupo ; for , going JjW this direction ,
right in thu teeth otllid wind , vvo could
trtivol moro rnjldly t rin llio pursuing
flumes.
While prisatnp tlifdligh the dro , I ro-

Wo now hoard R-iVloplng hoofs , nnd
vvo soon saw two Indians ( Osngc'O approaching
preaching through the snioko. "Whoro
nro you golngV" they nskod , in tholr
own language. "To Gray llorfo , " our
driver replied , In the snmo tongue.
They told him that the pralrio was a
mass of llama in thnt dlroction nnd that
wo must go back. Wo responded thnt
nil wns lliuno in that direction.
Notwithstanding tlio indilTcrenco to
danger usually ascribed to redskins ,
llicao Indians showed unmistakable signs
of terror. Some further quiclc convor-
Btitlon Informed us that they , Hko our
selves , nud seized nn opportunity to
penetrate tlio line of flame , thinking
thus to escape.
Wo nil wore now inclosed in a gradu

cnllod wna our onlvohnnco for safety ;
and this vvo nttamptod. A largo space
was cleared before the oncoming flro
reached us. Wo hoped to escape with
but singed oyobrowd and a few moments
ol sulTooatlon ; nml this wo would
have considered n fortunate deliver-
anco. Hut wo found our lust chancio"fnil-
intr us. The back-Hro wo had started
against the wind burned only the
dry grass , nnd in doing this had served
as a furnace tq dry the greener grass.
Thus the prairie flro , reaching our
burned district , found the greener
grasses killed and dried , nnd hence hud
almost as much fuel UB outside.
The flro vvns now close around us.
The vary ing- currents of air heated by the
llumo whirled and rose , nnd gusts of
cold air , rushing in to replace the hot
air , caused a whirlwind , and a grout
well of stnoko antt llnmo wns thus
formed. Within this woU wo stood , ns
yet unharmed mid with n constant sup
ply of cool nir , but expecting death.
It wns n dreadful moment ; the mother
and child wore crying ; the Indianswith
uplifted arms , wore culling upon tlio
Great Spirit in a weird chant.
Suddenly vvo felt un unusually strong
rush of cold air from ono side , und , look
ing up , I saw n strange nnd vvclcomo
sight. A long tongue ! of llnmo had run
toward und into our circular prison from
the main flro , nnd had burned n Inno
fiom the outlying "ournt urea into us.
Through this lauo , formed by walls of
flro , came rushing iiijv.current of cold ,
cleur nlr. This kept ? the smoke blown
away , and vvo saw pIKinly tbo path of
escape thus providpirtiully afforded us ,
when nil hope seorhc gono.
