The ball room of the Fairmont Hotel
! is one of the most beautiful, as well as
one OF the largest, in existence. It has
one of the few spring foors to be found
in the country, making dancing pecu-
liarly delightful. It is decorated in
white and gold, with hangings of blue
satin tapestry. It's walls are covered
with mirrors, between which are deeora-
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

it is the famous red banquet room.

Cafe banquet room, a hall of superb

Norman period. Even the tesselated

strueted is evidenced by the fact that it
came out of the stress and trial of both
nre and It's Accomplishments without a
single injury other than the complete
destruction of everything 1nfammabIe
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

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
2lst of April, 1907, the doors were
thrown open to the public with a spIen-
d1d reception, to which nearly all San

The hotel was not fully complete at
that time. Some of the rooms on the
upper floors were not ready, but when

push things through, the work went on
with amazing rapidity. Today, more

BOSTON FORGER
MAY BE HERE
Police Asked to Watch Out for
a Man Alleged to Have
Raised Check.

George c. Drouin, thirty-six years
old, five feet eight and one-half inche,
in height, 134 pounds in weight, medi
um dark complexion, maroon eyes
blond hair and mustache, is supposed
to be in this city. Drouin is wanted
by the Boston police for forgery and
uttering a forged check.
Drouin is nearsighted, wears specta-
eies, has a nervous twitching of the
face, and walks with peculiar quick
step. When last seen he was smooth
shaver, but it is thought possible that
he may now be wearing a beard, as
formerly he wore a Van Dyke. The
man was employed as bookkeeper in
the Hotel Bellevue at Boston. On June
26 he was given check for $26 which
he is alleged to have raised to $4,000
and deposited in a bank. A few DAYS
later he drew $500 and skipped.
The last seen of Drouin he was in
British Columbia; since then he has
dropped out Of sight. It is believed
that he came here, and Sheriff Jarrett
has been asked to keep watch for him.
