KAL|SPELL
HOTEL FIRE
Yesterday Afternoon Does Con-
siderable Damage.
WAS ABLY HANDLED
BY Firemen Who Soon Mastered the Flames,
Insurance About Nine Thousand
Loss Two Thousand.

Shortly after O'Clock yesterday
afternoon, Jessie Dunning an actress,
who is employed at one of the con-
cert halls and who occupied room 5
at the kalispell hotel, was awakened
by a fire which seems to have start
ed from a defective flue in her room.
An alarm was at once sent in call
ing out the entire fire department,
and although the firemen were
promptly on the scene, it did not seem
possible that the building could be
saved, for during the short time be-
tween the discovery and when the
first stream was turned on, the fire
had gained considerable headway.
From every window, the cornice and
even through cracks in the brick
walls smoke was issuing in clouds,
and at times the entire upper part
Of the building was hid from view
Ladders were rapidly run up to the
the building and a stream of water
from a line of hose which was taken
through a front window was playing
directly upon the point where the
fire originated.
While this was bein done another
line was taken through the office and
up the main stairway, thus making it
possible to attack the fire on two
sides In the meantime ladder had
been raised to the roof and another
line taken to the top of the building
where openings were made and a tor
rent of water was being directed
against the fire from every side.
The damage by fire was confined to
rooms 4 and 5, on the second floor
and timbers in the attic, under the
metal roof. The damage from fire,
however, is but slight when compared
to the loss from water.
The entire second floor was flooded
and streams Of water poured down in
to the lower story, which will neces-
state new plastering and paper over
most of the building.
The department did good work and
only enough water was thrown to
stop the spread of the flames. The
fire had gained considerable Roadway
when they arrived and for time
their task looked like a hopeless one,
as the building seemed 20 be on fire
from one end to the other
Sylvester Harness had taken charge
of the hotel only yesterday, having
rented the furniture and building from
Oscar Engle who owns the furniture
and rents the building from Mrs. Mary
Hoskins, the owner
There are three business rooms
fronting on Main street, two of which
are occupied by Mr. Harness for saloon
purposes, and the other by the Great
Northern employment office. 1t is ex.
pected that these rooms will be reoc.
cupied at once.
The east end of the hotel will not
be in condition for occupancy until
thoroughly repaired, but few rooms
in the west end, together with the
dining room, kitchen and office will
be in condition in few days
Mrs. Hoskins stated that she car
ries $1,000 insurance, and thought
there was $4,000 on furniture and fix
lures, but could not give the names OF
the companies in which the insurance
is carried.
There were over seventy-five guests
in the hotel, and they are experienc
ing considerable difficulty in securing
hotel accommodations,

score more or less hurt is the result Of
fire which broke out at the Pullman
lodging house here, this morning.

third story window and was seriously
injured about the head and legs.
A number of men were experimenting
with gasoline lamp in n saloon on
the lower floor of the lodging house
when the lamp exploded, scattering
flames in all directions. The building
was wooden. and before the fire de-
partment arrived the flames had eaten
through the lower floor and We're
spreading to the upper stories.
The lodging house contained about
100 guests. none of whom were able to
save anything except what they wore
Most OF them escaped by jumping from
the second and third story windows,
and it is miraculous that more were
not killed. A number were carried out
unconscious by the firemen, but so far
as known all will recover. 1t is not be-
lieVed that any except the two men
toned persisted. The property loss is
about $4,000, with no insurance.
