sofa and North Dakota.
ST. PAUL. MINI, Sept. 19.-The intense heat Of
the past few days continued yesterday, the ther-
mometer registering from 100 to 106 degrees at
several Minnesota points. The heat was ac-
companied by q strong wind, and prairie fires
are reported from dozen localities. A great
deal of hay in stacks has beer destroyed and
three or four miles of the Great Northern rail-
road track have been burned and made i'm
passable.
In North Dakota the greatest damage has
been done around Lisbon. At least $4,000
bushels OF wheat have been destroyed there.
At last reports the fire was still spreading north
and east The Northern Pacific water tank
was sent north on the jamestown and
Northern track to protect the COM
pany's property II necessary. No fire
is reported east Of the track. Farmers gener-
ally have insufficient fire guards and great anx-
iety is felt on thai account. Barney Burgride.
the stage driver from Winona, n. D., says a
prairie fire started at Winchester yesterday and
burned west twelve miles and within six miles OF
the Missouririver. The wind changed and drove
the fire east fifteen miles through Williamsport,
which is four miles southeast of Bismarck.
Last night the entire neighborhood gathered
still burning. 1t is feared Williamsport is
burned, the fire Is driven by O heavy
wind and the town is poorly pro-
teeted. The fact Of there being no mail to
Bismarck since Wednesday gives credence to
the fear. strip about thirty miles wide and
forty miles long has been burned over. In
northern Minnesota and Wisconsin the fire is
in the forests. The damage is not reported
heavy except near Cumberland.
