(Special to Tha Bulletin.)
LA PINE. Nov. 9. Plan are al
ready being formulated here with
the purpose of rebuilding the hotel
which was destroyed lust night by
fire. The loss was between $4,000
and $5,000. partly covered by Insur
ance. The hotel, operated by Mrs. J.
8. Beasley, hud been regarded are a
civic center, and the citizen are
united In the desire to replace It.
The pool hall, next door to the
hotel, was also dentroyed. The fire
started on the second floor of the
hotel when the occupants were at
dinner. A defective flue I thought
to have been the cause. When dis
covered, the blaze had spread so ex
tensively that a bucket brigade was
unable to check it.
The entire town was threatened
by the flames, which spread several
times to the store of W. It. Uiley and
W. Iloss. Had they burned. It would
have been impossible to stop the fire
from spreading to a number of other
liuildiiiK.
The hotel blinding 'belonged to
Charles Carmlchael. Mrs. Heasley
holding a purchase lease. It was a
mo story frame structure, built In
1911. It wns the only hotel In the
town. Tho pool hall was nlso a wood

Effort of H . K. Brooks and H. E.
Allen of the local office are respon
sible for the fact that the strip of
Brooks-Scanlon timber adjacent to
the Dallea-Californta highway still
stands. It was stated at today's com
mercial club luncheon. A vote of
thank wa tendered to the Brooks
Scanlon company by the club.
Allen explained that the company's
action in leaving the timber was not
final, being conditional on the pass
age of tho Timber Exchange bill and
the effecting of an exchange for a
almllnr area of National forest tim
ber. Ho stated, however, thnt he was
personally confident that the timber
would never be cut.

COMMUNITY TO
AGAIN COMBINE
AT CHRISTMAS
Instead of programs by the schools
as well as the Sunday schools' com
munity Christmas tree, only one cele
bration will be held at Christmas
time, it was decided last night at a !
conference between Superintendent
.Moore and the principals of the
schools. The Sunday schools will be
In charge of the tree. The grade
schools will Instead give a May Day
program near the end of the school
year.
The decision was made at the re
quest of persons who are interested
In the Sunday schools.
Plan Ilia; lrKrnm
"I am sure that the Sunday schools
of Bend will cooperate in preparing
and presenting one of the biggest
Community Christmas programs ever
witnessed in Bend." said J. Edgar
Purdy of the Methodist church this
morning. "The matter has not yet
been brought to the attention of all
the Sunday schools" he continued
"but that is being done as fast as
possible. Father Sheehan of the Ca
tholic church and Rev. L. B. Beard
of the Baptist church have each ex
pressed their hearty concurrence in
the proposed plan and the Methodist
Sunday school already has a commit
tee at work.
"A year ago five Sunday school
participated In the Community pro
gram at the gymnasium. Nearly one
thousand children, not to mention
adults, were present. Just what the
character of this year's program will
be I do not know, but there will cer
tainly be a big tree, and Santa has
wirelessed that he will be on hand.
We shall probably use the gymnas
ium December 22.
"In previous years the Public
School program and the Sunday
school programs have Interfered
with one another tn that the same
children have been called upon to
take part in both progrnms. This has
been especially manifest during the
four or five weeks of preliminary
rehearsals, which worked a real hard
ship both upon the children and the
training committees. The courteous
action of the public schools will make
It possible for the children to con
centrate upon one big event.

M. B. Lindley, rancher's wife, was the
woman, the man la still being sought
by 8heriff S. E. Roberts and hi de
puties, and a runaway was the means
of escape chosen by the frlghtene4
woman.
The first Intimation of the at
tack made on Mrs. Lindley caaM
shortly after S o'clock In the after
noon when a team and light wagon
dashed west on Franklin, swerving la
front of the Bend Company office oa
Wall, and coding to halt when one
of the horses was thrown and the
pole broken. No one was In the wa
gon, and it was thought at the time
that the team had been left standing
farther up the street and had taken
fright. The story told to Sheriff S. E.
Roberts, however, showed that the
runaway was purposely caused by
Mrs. Lindley after the man now
wanted by the authorities, had seis
ed her.
Woman Starts Runaway
Shortly after Mrs. Lindley entered
the city limits, the man swung onto
the rear end of The wagon. Thinking
that be desired a ride Into town, Mrs.
Lindley Invited him to share the seat
with her. Instead, he seized her. Be
lieving robbery to be his purpose,
Mrs. Lindley offered him her parse
containing $100. but he disregarded
this, and throwing an arm across her
throat as if to garrote her. pulling
her backwards. Realizing her dan
ger, Mrs. Lindley shouted to the
horses, at the same time flinging the
lines to either side.
The team broke Into a run, Mrs.
Lindley felt the man's grasp relax,
and she rolled free, dropping out of
the wagon as the team galloped on.
The man is believed to have jump
ed a short distance farther on.
Girl Attacked
A second attack occurred nearly
two hours later as Lorinda Dunn.
13 year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
M. Dunn, ranchers near Pilot Butte,
was returning to her home from
school. The man stepped out from
the junipers, placing his hand over
her mouth to stop her cries as he did
so. The terrified child in some way
managed to squirm out of his arms,
and ran at top speed for her home.
According to the description given
by both Mrs. Lindley and the girt,
the man was fairly tall, blonde, was
dressed in gray, and had a very dirty
face. He wore a cap when he attack
ed the rancher's wife, but had lost
It when the girl saw him. He Is ap
parently quite young, never having
shaved.
Sheriff Roberts and Deputy Sto
koe tracked the man for more than
a mile yesterday afternoon, the ap
proach of darkness stopping therr
quest. The search was resumed this
morning.
The man was tracked this morn
ing to a point thre miles from Bend
on the old Redmond road. There his
'ootprlnts were obliterated by autos.
