Two years ago, when the fire was rag
ing at its worst, the sight of the classic
outlines of the Fairmont Hotel, stand
ing out white against the black clouds
of smoke, lent hope to the anxious thou
sands. When the flames swirled ferceIy
about it, to many it seemed that the
last hope was gone. At that time the
Fairmont Hotel was Just about to open.
Three years of time, and more than
three millions of dollars had been spent
in the construction of the building and
the inishings and furnishings Of its in
terror. How well the building was con-
strueted is evidenced by the fact that it
came out of the stress and trial of both
fire and it's Accomplishments without
single injury other than the complete
destruction of everything 1nfammable
to be found inside of its walls.
After the reaction of the first month
had passed, work was Immediately
commenced to rebuild and refurnish the
entire building, at a cost of over two
million dollars, the work of reconstruct
ton went on. Over a million dollars
was spent in interior fnishings and fur
niture, and the magnificent appoint
ments of the house as it stands today
speak well for the care and taste used
in the selection. The formal opening
of the hotel to the public took place on
the 18th of April, 1907, just one year
after the catastrophe, at which time the
Chamber of Commerce gave a banquet
in celebration of the event. On the
21st of April, 1907, the doors were
thrown open to the public with SPLEEN
did reception, to which nearly all San
Francisco came.
The hotel was not fully complete at
that time. Some of the rooms on the
upper floors were not ready, but when
the Palace Hotel Company, which for
merly operated the old Palace Hotel on
Market street, took hold, determined to
push things through, the work went on
with amazing rapidity. Today, more
than any other. building in San Fran
cisco, tine Fairmont stands monument
to the energy and determination of her
citizens.
In it San Franciscans have hotel
of which they can justly be proud, as
in the matter of location, it stands

absolutely unsurpassed in the world. In
the matter of appointments, service, and
exclusive features which make hotel
life pleasant, it is without peer. The
Fairmont Hotel today has capacity for
taking care of one thousand guests
It's entertainment features are so nu-
merous and so varied that, as has hap
pened many times, as many as six diff
ferent gatherings, including banquets,
balls and public meetings, can be held
under its roof at the same time, and
under such favorable conditions that
one assembly scarcely realizes there is
any other in the house.
The view from the Fairmont is such
as to make the most blase and expe-
rienced globe-trotter stand in wonder
and amaZement. From its windows flor
every room in this magnificent hosiery
is an outside room) can be seen the
superb panorama Of the Golden Gate,
the Bay of San Francisco, crowded with
ships from all parts of the world, the
mountains and hills of Contra Costa
County on the other side of the bay,
with Mt. Diablo 80 miles TO the south
east, and Mt. st. Helena over hundred
miles to the northeast breaking the
skyline. In the immediate foreground
of the hotel lies the busy city, in which
new steel sky-scrapers are rising in
place of the old style business houses
which were destroyed.
Chinatown, almost entirely rebuilt in
new and better way, is but a few
minutes walk from the door of the
hotel. BY means of the various street
car lines which pass its doors all parts
of the city, the ferries and railroad
stations, the banks and exchanges, re-
tail business and theater centers, as
well as the residence portions of the
city can be easily reached.
The Fairmont Hotel differs from al
most any similar institution in the num-
Der of unique features which it offers
for the entertainment of its guests.
Because of these, it is easily the social
center of San Francisco; you might
say, of the State. just as the old Palace
Hotel, which is now being rebuilt on
new and greater scale at the old site
on Market street, was one of the most
famous hosteleries of the world, and
guests of all nations, so the
under the same management
which so adequately took care of the
affairs of the Palace, is most cosmo

room is done in white and gold with
silken tapestries. From its windows,
as one dimes, he may look out over the
bay and the shipping. Then there is
the beautiful grey breakfast room,
which is particularly well adapted for
private dinners, luncheons and ban,
quets. In other parts of the same floor
are found the special tea and card
rooms set aside for the use of guests
who wish to entertain in a less formal
way. Then there are private dining
rooms, where organizations may meet
around a friendly board. On floor A
is found the crypt, one of the most
unique cafes in existence. 1t is in the
corner of Mason and Sacramento and
is extremely popular with the business
men of San Francisco. 1t offers com
Portable grill and bar for men, where
special attention is, paid to the cook
ing of steaks and chops and old eoun-
try dishes. The service here is swift
and efficient, and it is immensely pOpu-
lar as a luncheon place for business
men.
The Fairmont, as it stands today, is
the epitome of hotel excellence. The
vast experience which the Palace Hotel
Company had IN the celebrated Palace
Hotel has been utilized in this house.
To Colonel John G. Kirkpatrick, General
Manager of the Palace Hotel Company,
was given the task of instilling into
a brand new house the spirit of hos
pitality which made the old Palace Ho-
tel celebrated in two hemispheres. How
well he has succeeded in doing this in
evident the moment one enters the
doors of the Fairmont. For the Palace
Hotel spirit of hospitality enfolds one
like a garment, making his visit enc
of delight, his leave-taking one of re-
greet, and his memory of the time so
spent one of great pleasure.
The Fairmont Hotel offers to the
traveller all the conveniences and luxu-
ries known to the best modern hotel,
together with many exclusive features,
some of which we have spoken of above.
Every room in the entire hotel has
bath attached. For $3.50 one may thus
enjoy a pleasant room, beautifully fur.
nished in mahogany, with "a dainty
white-tiled bath; or, for as low as ten
dollars, suite of rooms. Visitors to
San Francisco may rest assured that at

politan, and in its halls viii be found
the experienced travellers from every
country of the world
The ball room of the Fairmont Hotel
is one of the most beautiful, as well as
one of the largest, in existence. 1t has
one of the few spring floors to be found
IN the country, making dancing peeu-
liarly delightful. 1t is decorated in
white and gold, with hangings of blue
satin tapestry. It's walls are covered
with mirrors, between which are decora-
tions by the most famous mural artists
of the world. And the ballroom is not
merely an ornament. San Franciscans
are very sociable people, and the rec,
ords of the ballroom show that it is
occupied an average of three times
week during the social season. Behind
it is the famous red banquet room,
which has, perhaps, held more distin-
guished company than any other room
of its kind west Of Chicago. On the
floor below is the magnificent Norman
Cafe banquet room, a hall of superb
proportions and simple grandeur. It is
the best illustration of hall of the
Norman period. Even the tesselated
floor is made of special design, char
acteristic of the Norman times. From
the lofty ceiling hang chandeliers Of
quaint design, made of hand-w1ought
iron in Paris especially for this room.
The long French windows, which cover
the entire north side of the Norman
Cafe, open on the terrace, broau,
tagged promenade, which overlooks the
Bay of San Francisco and the city
Upon special occasions of large enter
tainment, the terrace is canvassed in,
making another hall, almost as large as
the Norman Cafe itself On warm days
the terrace presents an animated scene,
reminding one largely of Paris or the
embankment in London. Here parties
of convivial spirits gather around the
tables where lunch is served in the open
air, overlooking the most beautifui
panorama of mountain and sea.
Another thing for which the Fair
mont Hotel is noted is the number and
variety of its different dining places.
In them one may find place to dine
as suits his convenience. The Laurel
Court, which is Immediately behind the
lobby, offers a convenient grill for
ladies and gentlemen. Further on is
the main dining salon, with accommoda-
tions for three hundred people. This

A PRICE ON SUN
YET SEN S HEAD
Chinese Said to Have Offered
100000 Taels for His
Assassination.

DR.. Sun Yet Sen, the Chinese revolu-
zionist, whose wife and mother are
about to leave Hawaii and go to Japal,
has price of 100000 taels on his
head, according to the japanese papers.
1t would seem that the revolutionist
from Hawaii is in peril not only from
the Chinese government itself, but from
secret foes and sneaking assassins. The
Japan Weekly Times has the following
| concerning the matter:
With regard to the poisoning affair
at the Minpao Office, the headquarters
of Chinese revOlutionaries in Toxic, it
is now reported that three suspicious
characters have been arrested The
whereabouts of Wang, however, is not
yet known. On Monday a domiciiary
search was conducted, which resulted
in the discovery of a case containing
drugs. The police, it is stated, regard
the case as an excellent clue Rumor
says that the Chinese government is
trying to annihilate the revoIutionaries
by offering rewards to those who as
sassinate them. According to the ru
NOR, 100000 taels is offered for the
head of DR.. Sun Yet Sen, 100000 taels
for Huang Hsing, 10000 tales for
Chang, and 5000 taels for any revolu-
tiOnary. Wang once belonged to the
revolutionary party but has been bought
up by the government and has been
trying to put Chang to death for the
purpose of obtaining the prize of 10000
taels.
On November 90 all the inmates of
Minpao Office, Shinogawa-machi, Ushi-
gone, which is the publishing house of
the Chinese revolutionaries organ, |
Minpao, except one Tang, and maid,
went to the local court, where the trial
of one of their party was held, when
one Wang, who once belonged to the |
party, came to the house. Though he
once belonged to the revolutionary |
party, Wang does not associate with
the revolutionaries and is regarded by |
them as an official spy. On that oc-
easion Wang spent some hours with
Tang in conversation. Wang brought a
bundle of tea and asked the maid to
prepare it. But Wang did not take a I
cup. After Wang was gone the maid
took a sip of the tea and Immediately
began to feel pain in her stomach.
1t was found that the tea contained
poison. So it is supposed that Wang
came to the house for the purpose of
poisoning these revolutionaries.
On Monday another case in which
a life was lost took place at the same
house. An inmate of the office, Teng
by name, came home about four in the
afternoon on the dav in question and
took cup of tea, using the hot water
in the kettle on a hibachi, and soon be-
gan TO feel great pain in his stomach.
A doctor was at once called and every
means was taken to save the man from
death, but little later he died. The
true nature of the natter is not yet
fully known and 1t1irial investigations
are in progress.
