l22, 1898.

The Y. P. Reading Circle was the

Discussions showed that somethine
should be done. Mr.. Coffman of.
fered to donate one third as much

means Of raising the money with
which to buy books.

effect that the township be divided
into three Reading Circle districts,
and that each district hold a "pie
supper" to raise money, and that
the proceeds obtained by the sup
pers and the Trustees donation be
added, then divided by IL, and the
money distributed among the dis
tricts according to the number Of
rooms in each district.
Pie suppers were ordered at the
following dates and school houses:

BALDWIN HOTEL BURNED
FAMOUS HOSTELRY GOES UP IN
SMOKE.
Four Lives Lost-"Lucky" Baldwin
Ruined-Loss of Property $2,j00,000
Was Considered Fire Trap.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 90
The Baldwin hotel for twenty-five
years one of the best known hostel
ries in the country was destroyed by
fire early in the morning OF November
%. Four lives were lost, and num-
Der of people were injured. The loss
is estimated at $2,5OO,O0O. The insur-
ance on the hotel was 100000.
The fire was discovered at $3.50
o'clock, and two hours later had done
its work. One theory is that the fire
originated in the kitchen; another
that it originated in the theater
which was under the same roof, but
surrounded by fire walls. Some peo-
pie believe it was of incendiary origin.
There were upwards of $50 guests
in the hotel at the time. The flames
spread so rapidly that egress by the
stairways was speedily cut off. Many
made their exit by the fire escapes.
The fremen rescued scores. One of
the victims was killed by the break
ing of rope by which he was being
lowered from an upper story. Few of
the guests saved even their ward
robes.
ne tOtterlng walls OF the Dulld-
ing have since been pulled down for
fear they would fall.
The building was on the northeast
corner of Powell and Market streets.
Its erection was begun i'm 1898. and
completed in 1877. 1t cost 50 900. 900:
the furnishings 100000 more. 1t was

hotel contained the Baldwin theater
and many stores. 1t was heavily mort

able property and the hope that re-
