praire fire, which was set by sparks
from a railroad locomotive. swept
over a wide extent Of territory west
OF Iroquois. A strong wind was blow
ing from the south and the FIRE made

finder. Hundreds of farmers turned
ont to fight the fire and delegations of
fire fighters also went TO the scene
from Huron lroguois, Cavour an other
towns. BY a hard fight the flames were
extinguished. Had it not been for the
assistance received from outside sourc-
90 the losses from there would have
been much greater. Among those who
were losers by the fire were John Far
rell and Joseph Murphy The former
had nine stacks Of grain destroyed,
while the latter lost a number OF hay
stacks and a large quantity of barley
which was in the stack. The fire was

HUNTERS WELCOME
Farmer Issues Hospitable In.
vitation to Chicken
Hunters

Webster, Sept. 20.-Frsd II. Russell,
a farmer living some miles from
town. is a rare exception to the usual
run of farmers, who during the prairie
chicken shooting season almost in
varisbly forbid town hunters from
trespassing upon their land while
hunting chickens. Russell has issued
the following public notice:
There ale about 90 coveys of
chickens on my farm aud all resident
hunters are welcome TO hunt on my
farm. Put your horses in the barn
and feed them plenty of oats out of the
north granary, and no charges"
As a result of this evidence of hos
pitality. the Russell farm has become
a favorite hunting place for residents
of Wesbter and other sections OF the
county As a usual thing farmers de-
clare that as the prairie chickens
which assemble on their farms have
been fattened on grain belonging to
them they are entitled to them and
forbid hunters from invading their
land on pain of being arrested for
trespass.

COLD WAVE FLEES
FROM STICKY HEAT
Weather Mans Predicted Change
Arrives on Schedule Time.
Temperature Rising.

The weather mans reputation for
freaky stunts has been fully estab-
lshed at last-with one fell swoop
o1bserve the date) Friday, June 10,
he has brought upon Atlantans again
that sticky. sizzling brand Of wealth
or which gives the street corner Cos
sipers something to talk about.
The shift from real winter to sum
mar was indicated Thursday after
noon when the mercury went up, al
though not enough to bring out straw
hats and uncovered peek -bOOs. Fri
day morning, however, saw real
change and many yenturesome citi-
zens, with brand new summer
clothes, straw hats and things, look
ing ahead a few hours, prepared
themselves for real hot weather.
II wasn't bad guess, for the tenn
perature rose steadily all during the
morning until about noon, when it
was almost normal again. The
weather man says this will continue
without a break-but who can tell,
for it's a freaky day, and It may be
just freaky weather.
