The First Fire.

Yesterdays noon freight bound
west started a prairie fire about one
mile west of town. The train backed
into town, and a large force of men
went out to fight the fire. A strong
south wind swept it north over the
prairie to the township fire guard
about two miles north where it was
fought out. The only damage re-
ported was two stacks ofhay burned,
and one of Rasmus Hansen's horses
somewhat. The lire burned over
about Il mile and q half wide. That
township tireguard was a fortunate
thing for the farmers Of northern
townships, or the railroad company.
A later report says that Mr.. Hansen's
face was severely burned.
