the floor ot the auditorium down
Into the basement when 'the
pastor discovered the fire.

The fire was evidently started
In the auditorium, which was
seldom locked, and when the
tire department arrived the
whole building waa a raging in
ferno. In spite ot terrific heat, the
fire department played streams
from seven lines upon the burn
ing temple and npon surrounding
buildings. The entire department
all equipment and many volun
teers worked from dawn until
noon Monday patroling the fire
line and guarded surrounding
nomes.
Houses Catch Kir.
Five stuccoed houses and their
garages across the alley from
the temple on Plum street burst
Into flames from the intensc
heat and flying embers. The
garages, all of which belonged
to John Kelsey, as did four ot
the houses, were completely de
stroyed. Each was covered by
1100 Insurance. Another Plum
street house at 747, belonging
to Mrs. Elizabeth Allen, was
badly damaged, approximately
1700.
The Kelsey houses were num
bered 737. 733, 727 and 725
Plum. The house at 725 was
damaged the most, with loss
placed at $500. Two others were
damaged about 1100 each and
one only to the extent ot about
120.
A house at 802 Oak street

Huge crowds which congre
gated to watch the fire were
kept in order by the police de-
patment, which was ordered out
in force by Chief of Police
Shaw.
The natatorium fire was dia
covered shortly before 1:00
o'clock Monday morning and the
alarm turned In just in time to
save the building. The blaze
started In the well and boiler
room, where It had evidently
been set in dry sawdust and old
packing cases.
Mrs. Elmer Dye, wife of the
manager, told offfcera that she
had heard noises, but believed
them to be out on the street and
that she had heard a man say.
"Hurry, lets get out of here."
An automobile belonging to Rol
and Warren, Copco employe,
parked In the natatorium garage.
was completely destroyed br the
fire.
The building Is the property
of the Prudential Savings and
Loan company ot Portland, which
carries the insurance, the amount
of which had not been learned
Monday. ' The swimming pool
was undamaged and was open
Monday.
The early morning fires of
Sunday and Monday climaxed a
series of fire that were almost
certainly incendiary, the work of
a fire bug, according to Chief
Bardell.
Another building, outside the
city limits In St. Francis Park,
was burned to the ground Sat
urday night. Origin of the fire
was unknown, as the ocrupants
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Lawson
were both out of the city. The
house was also the property of
the Prudential Savings and Loan
company, but Mr. and Mrs. Law-
son carried $2,500 insurance up
on their lurnltur.
Telephone at the federal
building and other buildings
near the destroyed temple were
put out of commlsison by the
blaze and were still out of order
Monday afternoon.
