Prairie Fires Responsible
For Big Property Loss

Monday of this week beng a
calm, quiet day, the employees
of the Theis ranch took advant-
age of it, and burned some straw
stacks. The wind Tuesday
spread the burned straw and
few live sparks soon had the
entire prairie in flames. Almost
with the speed of lightning it
swept across Logan and Sand
Greek townships and into Clark
county, leaving a strip of burned
prairie, ten miles wide, behind.
The work of fire fighters saved
some of the homes it its path,
but barns and out-buildings IN
almost every instance were left
in ashes.
The losses reported so far are:
a barn and twelve head of hogs
for Ralph Cole; barn and house
for John Heap; barn and several
hundred bushels of grain for
Tom Veatch, and a barn for
Jake Heap. The amount of
damage done in Clark county
has not been.learned.
The same day another fire
swept from Satanta south to'the
Cimarron river, burning every.
thing in its path. No lives were
lost in either fire.
