WIPED OUT BY FIRE
Resort Near Mouth of the River at Bur

Burlington, June 9.-The resort at
the mouth of the Winooski river, which
has not been much in the public eye for
the last few years, was burned to the
ground Saturday night in a fire which is
thought to have been caused by spark
from an engine. The building was own
ed by Isaac Perleman and the loss will
amount to few thousands of dollars,
with no insurance. The hotel was built
about 20 years ago and for several years
was operated by Joseph Derway. At
that time it gained an enviable repnta-
tion and sleigh rides, etc.. went there
in large numbers. The fishing in that
vicinity was then excellent and the hotel
thrived After Derwsy's regime, it
passed into the hands OF w. r. Cham
bers, who also conducted good house.
During the past few years, however. the
resort has been notorious and has been
raided repeatedly by the police and sher-
ifs department. At the time of the fire
the building was unoccnpied. In addl-
ton to the structure, considerable
amount OF timber and furniture was de-
stroyed
