at the Iowa legislature. The propo-
sition to pension school teachers was
prominently discussed during the edu.
cational meeting at Des Moines last
week, 1t was claimed in the discus

Three years ago, when the fire was rag

of smoke, lent hope to the anxious thou.
sands. When the flames swlrled fierceIy
about it, to many it seemed that the
last hope was gone. At that time the
Falrmont 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 finishings and furnishings Of its in
terror. How well the building was con-
structed is evidenced by the fact that it
came out of the stress and trial of both
hre and its Accompaniment without a
single injury other than tine complete
destruction of everything Inflammable
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 reconstruc-
ton went on. Over 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

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, the Fairmont stands monument

Unequaled Entertainment Features.
The ball room of the Fairmont Hotel
is one of the most beautiful, SIS well as
one of the largest, IN existence It has
one of the few spring floors to be found
in the country, making dancing pecu-
iarly delightful. It is decorated in
white and gold, with hangings of blue
satin tapestry. Its walls are covered
with mirrors, between which are decora-
tioDs 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 a
week during the social season. Behind
it is the famous red banquet room,
which has, perhaps, held more distin-
gulshed company than any other room
of it's kind west of Chicago. On the
floor below is the magnificent Norman
Cafe banquet room, hall of superb
proportions and simple grandeur. It is

tagged promenade, which overlooks the
Bay of San Francisco aud 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
in London. Here parties
of eonvivial spirits gather around the
tables where lunch is served in the open
air, overlooking the most beautifuf |
panorama of mountain and sea
Numerous Dining Places.

mont Hotel is noted is N aa1aber and |

In them one may find place to dine
as suits his convenience. The Laurel /

Its 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.
Marvellous Outlook.
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 for
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.
In the Center of the City.
Chinatown, almost entirely rebuilt In
new and better way, is but few
minutes walk from the door of the
hotel. By means of the various street
ear lines which pass it's doors all parts
of the city, the ferries and railroad
stations, the banks and exchanges, re
tail business and theater eenters, as
well as the residence portions of the
city can be easily reached.
Unique Among the Worlds Hotels
The Fairmont Hotel differs from al
most any similar institution in the num-
Der of unique features which it offers
for the entertainment of it's 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 a
new and greater scale at the old site
on Market street, was one of the most
famous hosteleries of the world, and
entertained guests of all nations, so the
Fairmont, under the same management
which so adequately took care of the
affairs of the Palace. is most cosmo-
politan and in it's halls VIII be found
the experienced travellers from every
country of the world.
