FEARFUL FIRE IN THE MoUNTA1Ns-THE
FLAMES LEAP One THOUSAND FEET.-The
people of Denver will remember about o
week ago-Friday week, in fact-a cloud of
smoke that rose from the mountains and
formed band halfway round the horizon,
obscuring the sun so that some thought it
was an eclipse. Mr.. E. j. Stewart, Of Cen
trail, informs us that it was from a fire in
the woods just above Georgetown, which got
out through carelessness. 1t started just
below the Equator lode, merely licked the
foliage and gummy bark, and scathed q
track, mostly east of the creek, about three
miles square, in almost no time. Had any
body been in its course he must have been
burned, the flames seeming to leap from a
thousand to FIVE thousand feet. Eight yoke
of oxen were consumed, and about five
thousand cords of corded wood. The heat
could be plainly felt one and half miles
distant from the fire, and at the distance of
half mile could scarcely be borne. 1t
burned down to within one-fourth of mile
of Georgetown. These woods fires are the
most terrible things in the world. Every
means should be employed to prevent their
getting out, and when they do start, let
everybody flee from them if they value life.
They are swifter than the swiftest race
horse, and tiercer than the ravening wolves.
