MR.. AND MRS. GACBRAITH
SuEEER Ns

The Saratoga Sun. in speaking Of
the burning of the Hot Springs hotel
in that city a few days ago. says:
Mr.. and Mrs. Galbraith were. next
to the hotel company. the heaviest los
ers. Mrs. Galbraith had all her we'd
ding presents. her carpets. rugs. jewel
ry. silverware and the many priced
souvenirs that she carried with her.
and all went up in flames. The loss is
estimated to be about $500. Rev. Brun-
dage is the next heaviest loser and in
books. jewelry and clothing he esti,
mates his loss to be somewhere near
$3.50. Mary Burns, one of the waiter
girls. lost all of her clothing and about
$50 in money.
The loss Of the hotel is quite a ser.
ious affair for Saratoga just at this
time, when the summer visitors and
spring travel was just beginning to
come in and. while the Hotel Wolf aud
the Waterloo will accommodate a large
number of people. still the loss of the
Hot Springs hotel will be seriously
felt. The burning of the property was
telephoned to ]. NJ. Rumsey. cashier
OF the First National bank at Rawlins.
one Of the pr%oprietors,, who announced
that the company would rebuild at
once, putting up a large brick struc.
ture in place of the building destroyed.
He said it would be the aim Of the
company to at once furnish the old
bath house and to make temporary ar.
rangements for the bathers until the
new building could be erected. This
will be good news. not only to the
many people who have been intending
to come to this place for the summer
but to our citizens as well.
