Many, however, reported that tome of the members had been separated and left behind. Borne of the towns were hemmed in on all aides. Talbot and Quinneaec are the most notable examples. At both a hard f'.riu was put up, but in the end the placea had to be abandoned. Thqre was little that human effort could do to check the flames. Water was scarce, and even when It wai plentiful it was of no avail In combating the flames. Hundreds of woodsmen fought In spots throughout the district. Step by step they would back up trying at each stand to backfire The flames. Clearings were burned, over with fires that could not be controlled. Then when the flames reached there they found nothing more to consume. In thla manner many of the towns In the path of the conflagration were saved. Panic In Many Towns. While scenes of horror and despair were being enacted In the fire stricken territory, there was also a panic In neighboring cities, miles from the fire line. Moot of the refugees were taken back today, when it was supposed that the fire had died down, but most of them found nothing when they rrtched the spot where their homes had stood. Gradually the win4 died down, and this morning it enlflld and the flames began to lose their airy, but the fires are not out. They gtill smolder, and although they are got spreading. It will only need a fresh wind to start them again In all their fury. Talbot fought hard to ward off the flames, but it fulled. A score of houses and entire logging train were burned.
