Dickinson, Oct. 31.-Sunday after.
noon a prairie fire caught somewhere
in the vicinity Of Chalk Buttes and was
carried in. a southerly direction by the
wind. William Tews, a German farm.
er,, was blowing ina field south Of the
butte when he noticed the approach
Of the fire. He Immediately under
took to save himself and his property
by starting another fire. AT that in.
slant the wind swerved around and
he found himselm in the midst of the
flames. There was no, possible es.
cape and he threw himself to the
ground and the fire rushed over his
body. The clothes were burned from
his body and his arms and limbs are
terribly charred. Whether or not
ne will recover is matter of time
at any rate his right hand will have
to be amputated. The fire continued
and destroyed his barn, three horses,
seven head of cattle, wagon and
most of the grain which had been
saved for winter.
Mrs. Tews found her husband
prone upon the ground and after do
ing what she could to revive him
managed to. get him TO the house and
brought him into the city Monday at
noon and called DR.. Stephen Fisher.
The flames continued south gather
inf momentum as they spread and
came upon John Anderson who has
been in the country but three days
and had no idea of how to save him
self. He was erecting a shack on &
claim he had taken before leaving
this city, when the fire caught him
He is also terribly burned but will
probably live as he Is strong, hearty
man Of unusual vitality.
His clothes were burned PARTIAL,
off and his shoes were burned entire
ly leaving his feet bare after thu
flames had passed over. - -
