string until she found what was on

opening it Miss Place found her friend

guests then entertained by a recita-

Lawton, o. T.. March 4. - Five
persons were burned to death and 900
square miles of territory in Kiowa
and Comanche counties were swept by
prairie fires. Hundreds of people are
homeless, and it is impossible to esti-
mate the financial loss, owing to the
wide extent of country affected. At
Hobart, the county seat of Kiowa coun-
ty, the fire approached from the east,
destroying the stables and fifteen race
horses, fifteen residences, two business
houses and various small buildings.
Government Loses Heavily.
Spreading to the southwest the fire
swept $4,000 acres Of government mill
tary and timber reserve and Indian
school reserve, destroying several In
dian houses and forty head of govern
ment cattle. Spreading westward the
flames covered miles of the homestead
district, destroying houses, barns and
stock.
One Dead and Five Wounded.
Those who lost their lives in the
prairie fire and those who were in
jured are as follows: Dead-Dr. Har-
mon, six miles northeast of Lawton,
burned to a crisp. Injured-ohn Har-
mon, cannot live; A. n. Crawford,
near Lawton, seriously burned; Mrs.
Henderson, widow, living three miles
from Lawton, and two daughters, Sc
riously burned, one cannot live. More
fatalities r expected, as the reports
from the districts are meager. They
tell of many narrow escapes, of whole
from their burning homes, and leaving
their stock and property to go up in
smoke.
Fire Fighters Save Lawton.
Late at night the fire began mov-
ing southwark toward this city. At
IL o'clock midnight 5000 people Of
the city were up to battle with the ap-
preaching monster of destruction The
advance line of the fire was fully two
miles in length, and came in a semi
circular form. A thousand men turned
their efforts to checking it at the grass
borders of the reservation at the city
limits. Water from every source, car
ried in every conceivable way, was
distributed along this line and carried
all around the city limits.
Hundreds Of Small Blaxes.
This served the purpose Of checking
the advance lines Of the fire, but was
Of little avail in hindering the con-
tinual flying Of fire brands into the
streets Of the city. In more than 100
places flames arose from dwellings,
barns and outhouses but wherever a
blaze grew menwere present to quench
it with water. As a result of the cool

was only $4,000.
sto~ies of Suffering Come In.
Stories are coming In Of how fami-
lies lay out on the prairie throughout
the freezing night after the storm had
passed, with only the thin clothes on
ther backs. Hundreds of people are
destitute, and are suffering intensely
in the cold and with pains occasioned
by their burns. Clothes, medicine and
physicians are being sent out from all
the cities and towns Of the district
to relieve the suffering. Cavalry from
Fort Sill ana officers from this city
are searching for missing men, women
and children.
