HISTORIC BOARDING
HOUSE GOES Up
IN SMOKE
Duggan's Hostelry, Where
Tragedies Have Taken
Place, Is Burned.

Duggan's boarding house, a landmark
in Butte, was burned last night. The
building had been unoccupied for more
than a year, and it went quickly. The
origin Of the fire is unknown.
In a glare of red light which made
people in the business sections of the city
believe for time that the Nipper shaft
house was afre, the building went. 1t
was the scene of two murders. Its pro-
prietor died some years ago. Later his
widow was killed in a runaway accident
In the days when it.was rillning, Dug
gan's boarding house was filled with
miners. Situated opposite the Nipper
shaft, right in the heart of the mining
section of the city, it was a favoritc re-
sort of miners. In its barroom Bob
Worth shot and killed man named DAILY.
John Sullivan was also murdered in the
house. Its last proprietress, Mrs. Ward,
sister to Mrs. Duggan, shut it up about
a year ago.
The structure was three stories, built
of wood. When the fire was discovered
it had already gained such headway that
there was no hope of saving the building.
The department turned on stream OF
water to save the Nipper shafthouse In
this they were successful in spite of ter
rifle heat. Some of the Butte Electric
company's poles were burned and num-
Der of wires were melted.
So far as pecuniary damage is con-
cerned the amount is slight.
