NEBRASKA'S HILLS ABLAZE.
Flames Licking Up the Prairie Grass
over Large District

Hyannis, Neb., April N.-For the last
three days the sand hills of this section
of the state have been seething mass
of fire. About noon Thursday lightning
set fire to the range in several places. 1t
first got under Roadway in Spring and
Blackboard valleys. and one head of the
fire was driven to the Burlington road,
three miles east of Whitman. A change
of the wind at this time carried it south
into the best cattle district of Grant and
MCPHERSON counties. A section branch
continued nearly thirty miles in a wester-
ly course and has not yet been put out.
Another branch of the fire swept the
Brown, Lee and Big creek valleys. All
the ranchmen have been unable thus far
TO check the flames. A district of about
100 miles in length and from ten to forty
in width has been totally swept of hay,
and the prairie grass that for a month 10
come would serve as the only feed for
cattle. 1t is impossible to estimate the
damage that has been done. Many
ranchmen have no feed left for their cat
tie, and it is thought a heavy loss of
stock will be the consequence.

"Never Felt Better"
Mrs. T. r. Frech writes from Excel.
Tenn, as follows:
Having been afflicted with catarrh and
stomach trouble for seven years 1 tried
four different doctors. They only relieved
me for a little while. 1 gave up all hope
of being cured, having been reduced to
100 pounds. / was so weak / could
scarcely get out of the room. ] was in
dueed to try Peruna, and to my great
surprise | am now entirely well. My
weight is now 1888 pounds, and / never feat
better in my life. I shall always praise
DR.. Hartman and his remedies. Mrs. 7.
Frech
If you do not derive prompt and salts

Columbus, Ohio, giving full statement
of your case and he win be pleased to

ORLANDO TO HAVE AN EXHIBIT.
A Pinery and Orange Grove to BE
Placed at Buffalo.

Orlando, Fla, April H.-It is the pur
pose of several of the enterprising citi-
zens of this place to make a special Or
lando exhibit at the Pan-American ex-
position this summer. The orange and
pineapple growers will combine. 1t is the
present plan to secure the necessary
ground within the exposition enclosure
upon which to plant a miniature orange
grove and pinery, thus giving visitors an
object lesson in the production of these
fruits. 1t will hardly be practicable to
place on exhibition any considerable
quantity of oranges, at the
season of the year when the exposition
will be at its hight.
From present indications there will be
pineapples galore throughout the summer
months, and the pineapple men propose
to astonish the crowds by the quantity
as well as the quality of the fruit they
will place there.
If these plans are carried out Orlando
will be able to give to the tropical coun-
tries, where the pineapple is supposed to
be most at home, an object lesson which
will surprise them.
