Tuesday, the 2d, u prairie fire burned n
moving machine and n lot OF hay belong
ing 20 Mr.. Watson, ON buck creek.
Thursday evening, the 4th, some one
started IA fire back Of the Catholic church
ut Reading, and n burned down to Badg-
er creek. reaching that creek Friday, and
burning with great fierceness over many
miles of prairie. There was little breeze,
but the die created It's own WhIrlwind
and swept round la sort OF travelling
circle, roaring like Niagara, and every
little while ''exp, Oding'' like = cannon,
with a report that could be heard for
miles. 1t crossed the Lawrence road sew
eral times, and all ordinary fire guards
seemed OF no avail. Geo. Plumb lost 40
rods of worm fence The wind during
the night changed so that the farmers
man%ged TO fight the fire and send II
northeast, and Saturday it was burning
near the head Of Allen creek. Near Badg-
er creek the burned carcasses Of three
horses were found. No sooner had this
lire left the Badger creek section than an
other big fire came rom the southea st,
and the farmers turned out and fought
that for the rest Of the night. These two
fires illuminated the entire heavens north
east OF the city, and their glare seemed to
light up the atmosphere In all directions,
No doubt q good deal Of damage was
done, and certainly any amount Of dry
grass burned to ashes.

THANKS.

Having recently met vita the mis-
fortune OF losing by fire our home and
almost all of our household goods, we
desire to take this opportunity for pub
1icly thanking the many friends who
have so willingly aided Us by replacing
our many necessities. We assure them
that the deeds of kindness and the
words of sympathy shall never be for
gotten, and earnestly hope that. II such
misfortunes should befall them, that
we may be able to act as they have
done. We sincerely hope that they
may prosper, and that such things as
we have encountered, shall never dar-
ken their visions. Although while our
loss is felt very keeniy as great trial
yet we are made to believe that the
Great King of the universe brings
good things out of evil, in realizing
that we haYe so many kind friends
The remembrance OF such friends will
be in our hearts joy forever.
Yours, very respectfully,
p. A. RoGAN.
