Destructive Prairie Fire.

On Wednesday prairie fire ranged over
the hills northwest of town, and went of
IN the Neosho bottom north, doing consid-
cradle damage. 1t seems that colored
man living en- the farm of Mr.. Gillett. half
a mile west Of town, was blowing in the
morning. After he had plowed around the
field some four or FIVE burrows, which he
thought sufficient to check the fire, WISHING
to burn of the dry grass and weeds from
the ground which he was breaking he set out
fire. This was in the morning before the
wind had arisen much. The wind ircreas
ed and drove the FIRE across the plowed
ground, aud with great rapidity over the
hills, coming almost into town. 1t swept
through the farm of David I. Morris. near
the old mill site, burning eighty rods of
worm fence and sixty rods of board fence
His loss cannot be far short of $500. The
next place that came within its range bs.
longed to Mrs. Burns. Almost her entire
fence around fifty acres was burned. and .
lot of rails Which had been hauled onto The
the ground to repair the fence. We have
not heard her loss estimated. On her farm
Messrs. Clark & Moon, who are preparing
to burn brick kiln, had twenty cords of
wood, seventeen of which were completely
destroyed. Whether there was any further
damage done or not, we have not heard.
