MAKISTOS, Greece,=20 Aug. 27 =97 When the water ran out, with pine cones popping and the = flames still=20 high around his house, George Dimopoulos switched to wine. He made it = himself=20 two years ago, and, nearly alone in his village as it all but burned = down on=20 Friday night, he poured liter after liter, 200 in all, into his little = copper=20 hand-pumped crop sprayer, and sprayed and sprayed.

Maria Dimopoulos placed daisies where her cousins = Nikos and=20 Maria Dimopoulos refused to abandon their donkey and died. More=20 Photos >

=93I had nothing else,=94 said Mr. Dimopoulos, 63.

His wine helped save his life, his house and possibly his = neighborhood. But=20 it was an exception in this village and the one next door, Artemida, = where the=20 death toll accounts for nearly half the 63 people now reported dead from = Greece=92s worst fires in more than a century.

Most of the villagers died on the run. An elderly brother and sister, = unmarried and living together, fled but would not leave behind their = only=20 donkey. A convoy trying to outrace the flames snarled into a crash, = surrounded=20 by a fire so hot it liquefied metal and bubbled windshields like grilled = cheese.=20 Those in the cars fled up a slope, where rescue workers later found at = least 23=20 bodies in an olive grove scraped raw by flames. Among the dead were four = children, their mother=92s body wrapped around them.

These are stories Europe is no longer used to hearing about itself, = believing=20 that in the developed world, problems like forest fires can be solved = and, if=20 not, that it is because someone has not done his job. And though = Southern Europe=20 has been hit with drought this year, and high winds spread the flames = faster=20 than cars could drive, the government of Prime Minister Kostas = Karamanlis is=20 facing a crisis over whether it was up to the task of handling the = fires.

A very angry Mr. Dimopoulos thinks not. On Monday, he strapped his = crop=20 sprayer to his back again and began a lesson on how to put out fires. =

=93Bring Karamanlis here, and I will take him by the hair and show = him how I=20 did it!=94 he roared, squirting a bit of water, now available again, on = his=20 woodpile. (Wine is mostly water, and thus can also douse flames.)

The government, facing elections next month and seeking to deflect = criticism,=20 has blamed arson, reportedly arresting seven people suspected of setting = various=20 fires. Adding to conspiracy theories spread by the Greek news media =97 = including=20 one that the fires were started as a hostile act from abroad =97 a Greek = prosecutor on Monday ordered an investigation into whether those = responsible=20 might be prosecuted under the nation=92s antiterrorism laws.

Fire officials began to speak with optimism on Monday that, at a = minimum, the=20 blazes were spreading less rapidly, while the nation=92s fire brigades = and army=20 continued to try to control the fires, aided by other European = firefighters and=20 aircraft, as well as scores of citizen brigades. Most of the blazes were = here on=20 the Peloponnesian peninsula, although others burned on Euboea island, = north of=20 Athens.

For the first time since the blazes erupted on Friday, some progress = was=20 reported: while 44 out-of-control fires were reported on Sunday, the = number=20 dropped by 10 on Monday, aided by a second day of calm winds.

The danger had by no means passed. In the village of Grillos, just = over a=20 ridge from here on the western peninsula, a couple who own a restaurant = watched=20 in tears as flames advanced from three directions while fire trucks = spewed water=20 in the flames=92 path.

=93All we need is one of those,=94 said one owner, Iannis = Drakopoulos, 72, as a=20 Russian plane carrying an industrial-sized water bucket passed. =93If he = dropped=20 it here, it would all have been fine.=94

In Artemida and here in Makistos, the flames were already out, and = Monday was=20 instead a day for tallying the damage and preparing to bury the dead. =

=93What is there to say?=94 asked Efstathios Alexandropoulos in the = hilltop=20 cemetery in Artemida. With a small crew of helpers, he and a brother = were laying=20 the concrete blocks for a single crypt to hold his son, Phillipos, 6; a = niece,=20 Ioanna, also 6; and his mother, also named Ioanna.
