TEXAS ROMANCE IS JUST LIKE MOVIES (Br United Prau to The Bend Bulletin) HOUSTON, Tex., Jan. 4. A prod igal son has come home to Houston but he's only on a visit and he's not prodigaling. Early this century, Clarence Bug heim, graduating from high school here, decided he didn't want to spend wearisome hours learning to be a doctor. But his father wanted him to become a doctor. He disappeared. In 1902 Burgheim was seen. In Corinto, chief Nicaraguan port. A friend of the family, who saw him, unkempt, ragged, predicted the son would arrive home soon, a prodigal. In 1910 Burgheim was next beard fro mas a physician to the revolu tionary forces of the republic. Then, he was made Burgeon general of the rebel forces. In the eight years his family was expecting the prodigal, Burgheim had attended the Nicar aguan medical schools. During fighting, the revolutionary forces surorunded a stone church and were making a fight for possession Sud denly a girl appeared, running across this "No Man's Land." A bullet struck her. Burgheim );aw her. And, like a movie hero, he rescued her amid a shower of bullets. His surgery saved the woman's life. Ro mance blossomed. The revolution was successful. The girl's father, Diego Manuel Chamorro, has been elected president of Nicaragua. Burg heim and the girl were married a year after he saved her.

MYSTERY FIRE INEARLYMORN LEVELS SCHOOL $30,000 GROSS LOSS AT SILVER LAKE 100 PUPILS AFFECTED Blaze Discovered At 4 O'clock, But Is So Far Advanced That Backet Brigade Is Powerless To Pre vent Destruction. Silver Lake's $25,000 school burned to tho ground early this morning, according to report brought to La Pine this morning by the stage and received here this afternoon by telephone. The fur nishings and equipment, also de stroyed by the flames, bring the es timated gross loss to $30,000 of which only $3500 Is covered by In surance. The burning or tne scnooi deprives 100 pupils of their oppor tunity to attend classes and leaves five teachers without employment, unless makeshift schoolrooms can be secured. The cause of the blaze t unknown. The fire was discovered at 4 o'clock this morning, when a resi dent, of Silver Lake, who had chanced to rise at that hours, saw the flames. At that time the confla gration apparently had had a half hour's start, for fire was darting from the windows, the entire Inside of the building being already largely consumed. Spread of Flames Prevented. The bucket brigade was powerless to combat the flames, and the only work which could be done was In preventing the fire from spreading to nearby buildings, a task which was made especially difficult by the fact that a high wind was blowing. Loss was confined to the one struc ture, however. No explanation Jias been given as to how the fire may have started, unless facts are found on which to base a theory of spontaneous combus tion'. Classes were held yesterday, but the length of time elapsing be fore the discovery of the fire Is taken to indicate that the flames could not have hafl their origin while the building was actually In use. The Silver Lake school was of frame construction, two stories high, and was built about six years ago. FIREMEN PICK NEW PRESIDENT E. L.
