Raging Prairie Fire
CHICAGO, Nov IA Herald special from
Aberdeen, d. t., dated Tuesday, says:
Great fears are felt for the safety of this
city to night. A small prairie FIRE which
started early in the afternoon to the west
ward of the city has assumed alarming pro-
portions The wind, which until dark tended
to carry the flames in the opposite di-
rection, has turned, and is now sweep
ing the fire through the tall dry prairie
grass toward the city. The sight is at the
same time grand and terrible The sky is
iluminated almost as bright as day, and citi-
zens are proiiting by the light to make prepa-
rations for saving their effects in case the
haines cannot be stayed at the edge OF the
city.
The fire brigade Is out and endeavoring
to fight back the flames Several plows have
been set to work to endeavor TO plQw fire
strip as close to the advancing flames as pos
sibles but il is doubtful, considering the
strength OF .he wind whether <this hneasure
will prove successful Wet blankets have
been, placed ON the roofs Of hotfses on that
side Of the town toward which the ire Is adj
vancing.
'sxhe slnoks and glare of the fire render
horses almost unmanageable, and the work
OF removal i attepded with much 4 tsicalts.
It Is feared that all efforts to fight the fra
viii be unayailing unless the. wind should
again xeer and aid the attempts being made
