BIllOWS OF FLAME
Swept Over Nebraska. Driven by Fierce
GaIe-Immense Damage.

OMAHA, Neb., April s.--The gale which
swept over Nebraska yesterday bore before
it great pillows of flame which swept from
thousands of fertile acres every vestige of
vegetation. The limits of the fire, which
has ragged during the last 10 days, have
become almost state wide, and the destruc-
tion that was though might be small, has
become enormous.
1t is too soon to get any idea of how
much the exact damage is, for the places
most affected are remote from telegraph
lines. 1t is known, though, that much
grain and hay in store, together with many
barns and outbuildings, miles of fences,
dozens of dwellings and many bridges
have been licked up. Whether any lives
have been lost is not reported, though it
seems almost beyond doubt that some set
tiers who are located away from easy as
sistancc must have perished.
In Banner county the village of Ashmore
is supposed to have been completely de.
stroyed. Word was brought to Harrisburg
last night by the driver of the stage that
that town was directly in the pSih of the
fire at O'Clock and that the entire popu-
luton of the village was engaged in q
battle to save their homes. The stage

fire and received a severe scorching, al
though he was not seriously burned.
Meagre details received last night from
Ggallala, Harrisburg. Duning, inverton
Cearney, Grand Island and Hastings give
accounts Of great losses to property. 4
Burlington railroad bridge at Dunning apt
another at Hastings. on the Elkhorn, wer'
destroyed, delaying trains somewhat. Al
Kearney the fire burned near enough to tn
town to destroy brewery located just a
the edge. At Duning, an old lady name'
Bartlett was burned so badly that she ma,

The gale subsidized by nightfall, Tut tn
fires have scarcely abated and in tn
threatened sections the inhabitants hav
spent the hours of night in combating III
| fire. The region burned over is the che
grazing section of the state and the de
struction of the grass means great loss t
stockmen in this respect, as they will b
compelled to seek new pastures. Thei

stock stampeded by the fire it will taxi
them many week to figure up what tbei
loss really is.
