ed two frame structures and their con
tents, and partially burned all the win
dow casings and destroyed rear win
dows or the four-story Liberty build
ing, causing altogether a loss of about
$12,000, almost rivalled the famous
Mr. O'l-enry-eow kickins fire of Chi

When Harry Henson started a hot
fire in his bakery at 24 South Grajte
Bttn et, put on a kettle of doughnuts to

rant to eat his breakfast he little
dreamed that he started something
which would put him and other per
sons out of business, would cause so
much alarm to the Medford people,
awakened out of sound sleep.
The kettle boiled over while he was
eating breakfast and the greasy con
tents catchins on fire Ignited the al
ways inflammable contents of the bak
ery." The fire whistle blew first at
6 a. m. When the firemen arrived the
building was a mass of flames throw
Inn out an intense heat. The whistle
waa quickly sounded a second time,
calling for volunteers, as the handful
of regular firemen was powerless to
cope with flames in so dangerous a
iw-auon wiinoui neip.
The volunteers responded fast and
worked valiantly alongside of the fire
men, with the result that the flames
were confined to the one-story frame
structure containing the baker- and
two other store rooms, which was de
stroyed: the two-story Oregon room
ing bouse building, the upper floor of
which waa also completely destroyed.
