Los Angeles—Following the explos
ion and fire which destroyed the Times
building, with the almost certain loss
of 19 lives and injury to more than a
score of others, the finding of a dyna
mite bomb under the residence of F. J.
Zeehandelaar, secretary of the Mer
chants & Manufacturers' association,
and another late in the day under the
window of the residence of General
Harrison Gray OtiB, editor-in-chief of
the Times, kept this city in a ferment
of excitement and made the day one of
sensational and tragic events.
Within a minute after the explasien
in the Times office the instantaneous
ignition of gas from the pipes through
the building caused flames to dart
from a hundred windows and leap far
above the root. Its force was great
est in the heart of the building direct
ly under the composing room. The
men working there were thrown to the
ground and the linotype machines tum
bled over like a house of cards.
There were 115 employes in the
building at the time, half a hundred
others having left within a half hour
before with the winding up of the work
of the first edition. The scenes that
followed were indescribable. Men cut
off from ordinary exits by flames dart
ing from every side, rushed hither and
thither looking for means of escape
and were forced finally to jump from
second and third story windows.

University of Oregon, Eugene—The
university office this year will give
especial attention to its press service
in the interests of taxpayers, the idea
being that citizens helping in the sup
port of state institutions have a right
to know intimatley what those institu
tions are offering in return.
Besides the residence work offered in
Law, Medicine, Engineering, and the
various courses in the Liberal Arts col
lege, the university offers special work
in correspondence study for the benefit
of all those unable to avail themselves
of residence study.
All of these
courses are free of cost to the student
enrolling and taking the work, except
for a small amount to cover postage,
the total cost to the student being one
dollar for each course enrolled in. The
only requirement for admission to any
course is ability to carry on the work
and profit by the instruction given. In
every case instruction is personal; the
student receives individual attention.
University correspondence study is
proving popular throughout the state,
and is immensely valuable not only to
public and high school teachers, study
clubs, farmers and individuals who
never expect to avail themselves of
residence study, but also to those pre
paring to matriculate at the university.
A concrete example is offered in the
experience of James Ryder, of New-
burg. Last January Ryder registered
for correspondence study in Analytical
Geometry, and the papers which he
sent in were high grade.
Upon en
tering the university for residence
work this fall, the work which he did
last year in Analytical Geometry enti
tled him to take the course injCalculus,
a regular Sophomore Engineering sub
ject. The backbone of an Engineering
course is made up of required courses,
which must be taken in sequence, ¡and
must all be completed before the de
gree in Engineering can be givers
The Engineering degree proper is not
given in any of the larger institutions
under five years of required work. It
is so at the University of Oregon.
But the advanced standing of one year
which Ryder received on account of his
correspondence work, coupled with
summer work, if he wishes to take it,
will make it possible for him to gradu
ate in three years, and receive his reg
ular engineering degree in four years,
which time is ordinarily required for
simple graduation. This course, how
ever, he would not be able to pursue if
he had not already worked off this
course in ¡the Freshman mathematics
before entering.
Salem—Another great stride in the
commercial growth of the state of Ore
gon is marked by the report of State
Bank Examiner Will Wright, showing
the condition of Oregon banks Septem
ber 1, 1910, and their condition a year
ago. The increase for the year in to
tal resources of the banks of Oregon
has been more than $20,000,000 and
the total deposits are now greater than
