Disastrous Fire

10 O'clock. With the prompt res
ponse of the fire department
however, damage was minimized

0rs resulting from human effort
in coping with hazard.
According to Mrs. Margaret r.
Walter, owner and operator OF
the hotel, who at the time was in
the hotel office, there appears no
definite evidence as to how the
fire started. Several theories
when considered thoroughly re.
solved themselves into the con
clusiop that the fire was of un'
determined origin.
Damaged mostly by fire was
the rear portion of the basement
especially a room in the north
west section. Stubborn flames at.
tackled the ceiling. making 1t diff.
ficult for fire fighters to handle
nozzlcs through a basement win
dow and hole in an apartment
floor over the threatened fire
area.
The battle continued for al
least an hour. with fire equip
ment of the Agency also being
brought into play.
Insurance adiustcrs arrived
from Great Falls the following
day, an amicable settlement for
the loss being made. Mrs. Walter
said.
Pending repair of the damage,
which will include repairing and
redccorating of the guest rooms
and other quarters. the hotel is
accommodating only those who
have been steady occupants and
have chosen to remain despite q
temporary discomfort.
In fact. guest rooms on the
