Fire from u stove In tho rejir of
the building, used to. ljeat water for
the buptlstry, made Its way through
a defective flue In the Duptlst church
shortly after 9:30 o'clock lust night,
quickly Ignited tho wooden wall, und
resulted In destruction which will
probubly necessitate the replacement
of 'tho better purt of the building.
Tho Sunday school room In the reur
waa' slightly dumaged by water, and
the rom In the extreme east of the
building, formerly used to house the
city library, wua not touched. To re
place the building, it la estimated,
would cost $5,000, while only $1,500
Insurance was carried.
The fire was seen by Rev. E. D.
Johnson, the pastor. Just before
leaving the church, but the alarm
was given from outsldo before be

department responded Immediately,
but experience's a delay of nearly
two minutes In removing a touring
car which, contrary to city ordin
ance, hnd been parked directly in
front ot the, hydrant at the south
west comer of Bond and Oregon.
Aside from this, an exhibition of
fast, efficient work wns given, und
the flames were quickly controlled.
The greater part of the damage done,
however; could have been prevented
if tho wuy to tho hydrant had been
open. It la stated. ' .
Another source of annoyance was
the attempt of aeveral autoists to
drivo over the fire Dose after It bad
been laid to the fire. Roth this, and
parking near hydrants are contrary
to city ordinance, and Chief Carton
haa aecured the number of the car
which caused .the chief delay and
will ask that the maximum pojialty
be visited upon the owner.
A meeting at the church la being
called for Wednesday night, when it
will be determined whether the old
building shall be repaired, or a new
structure put up. - As temporary
quarters, the large room which will
be formed by removing the partition
separating tho old library and the

Registration for the second term
in the Bend schools opened this
morning, and before the day was half
gone, the prediction made by Cltv
Superintendent S. W. Moore that a
condition ot serious congestion
would be experienced, came true
when reports of a general shortage
of seating room began coming in
from nil schools in the district. How
much the registration will excod
that of last term could not be told
today, but Mr Moore expects to have
fairly definite figures by tomorrow.
Tho shortage, of accomodations
does not apply merely to the grades,
for in the high school classes will
be conducted on the stage In the
auditorium, In tho domestic science
kitchen, and in the. office. As soon
as the two room Kenwood budding
Is niove.d to the high school grounds,
the conditions forcing the use ot
these makeshifts will be largely
eliminated, Mr. Moore hopes.
Registrations have beei fairly
prompt with the exception of the
beginners' grade classes, and the
city superintendent asks that all
children who are entering the first
B grade, report at once or that par
ents advise the superintendent's
office in case children are kept at
