THE HOTEL WINONA
GOES UP IN FLAMES
Spectacular Fire ir the EARLY Hours of
Ibis Morning. Total Loss.

The Hotel Winona, situated on the
bluff just few hundred feet from the
railroad stations, was completely de-
stroyed by fire early this morning with
one out-building adjoining and another
out-building belonging to Mr.. A. r.
Sullivan living next door. Very little
furniture was saved from the building.
The guests made narrow escapes with
their lives and baggage, though some
few grips were left in the building.
There were several guests at the hotel
for the night.
The fire was discovered about three
O'Clock this morning by Chief of Police
Bagwell who lived short distance in
the rear of the hotel. When first seen
the blaze was shooting up in great
flames from the roof. The fire depart
ment made quick response to the alarm.
but the blaze had gotten such head
way and the building was of such com
bustible material that little progress
could be made in subdueing it. The
firemen centered their attention toward
keeping the blaze from getting too hot
to spread to adjoining buildings and in
protecting those buildings, though sew
outhouses were eventually burned.
The building and contents were prob
ably valued at between FIVE and eight
thousand dollars. The property was
owned by Mrs. d. M. Reese and was
being used by her as hotel when burn
ed this morning. 1t was comparative
ly new structure, having been built sew
