Scenes and Incident! SANTA MONICA, Aug. 31.—St. James hotel wsa totally destroyed by tire at 3 o'clock this morning, and the guests were forced to escape i.i their night clothes. Ihe hotel was a frame Structure and burned like tinder, despite tbe heroic efforts of the lire department to save it. the tire started on the second floor, di rectly over the kitchen, and though its origin is not definitely known, it is sup posed that it was caused by a detective Hue. The hotel contained twenty-live rooms and there were twenty guests. D was located directly opposite the Arcadia hotel, on tbe northwest corner of Ocean and Railroad avenues. Within ten min utes after the discovery of the flames half of tbe inhabitants of Ihe town had Hocked to the scene. ESCAPE OF THE GUESTS. The guests of the doomed hoStelfV lost no time in grabbing ther effects and get ting to a place of safety. Tbe sight of twenty persous en dishabille would, un der l?ss serious circumstances, bave oeen ludicrous in the extreme. Owing to the proximity of the fire to the Arcadia, nearly every guest piled out of bed, and hastily dressing, watched the devouring elements from tbe hotel windows. Pro prietor Reinhart ran no chances of a stray spark setting fire to his hotel, and soon had lends of hose nil over the roof. The hotel help is splendidly disciplined, nnd there was not the slightest danger of lire.n fact which was fully realized by the guests. Santa Monica has a well-organized vol unteer lire department and d it was promptly on the scene. Lines of hose were hid from every contiguous fire hy drant and three or four streams were soon playing on the flames. The lire ate its way rapidly to the front of the building, and flames were bursting from every window. An effort was mado to conlins it to the uppwr floor, but the inflammable nature of the material of which the building was com posed made this impossible. THE ROOF FALLS. After tne flames had'Tagcd furiously for half an hour the roof fell in with a crash, sending a myriad of sparks heavenward. It was a sight rivaling the grandest pyro technical dsiplay and was visible for some distance. Soon alter the falling ot the roof the floor between tho lirst and second stories dropped in and witli a roar the Hames flared up for a moment and then died down. When the sun rose nothing but la few smouldering embers and the blackened walls to the height of six feet remained to mark one of the greatest conflagrations in the town's his tory. WA3 A SUMMER HOTEL The St. James hotel wns erected about six years ago by S. Jackson, now the pro prietor of tbe Hotel Jackson. It was a two-storf frame building, and contained twenty-five rooms.

No one would care lo risk his reputation for veracity by stating that the season is practically at a close, after gnzing in on the assemblage of hand°ome and ele gantly costumed women nt the Hotel Arcadia any evening after dinner, or after even a passing glipse at tlie thiong ot bathers down on the beach on the fore noon or afternoon. True, there was an exodus of SUmmerites during tho first of tbe week, but happily thnt did not be token that the charms of Santa Monica were waning. Those who left had been here for ninny weeks und it was but nat ural that tbey should leave. The same state of affairs prevails at this time every year. "Some may go but others come, so we stay here forever," is tlie motto of the hotel proprietors* Early tliis morning a long line of wheel women might have been seen on their way along Ocean avenue. The proces sion consisted of three tandems and half a dozen single wheels. it was the lirst bloomer paraue of the season and was undeniably the most novel affair seen thus far. All last evening the young women who formed the parade were rushing around borrowing all the bloom ers lo he found, and their efforts were crowned with success, judging from ap pearances. Miss Zudee Maxwell, attired in tan blomers and leggins, tan Eton jacket nnd cap. rode on the front sent of tin' lirst tandem, and in her wake fol lowed Helen Eaton, Gene, Finney, Hsttis nnd El«ie Milner and Christine Knrts. All along the line they were lustily cheered, and bloomer parades will oe frequent no doubt hereafter. '1 here are many Indies here riding bl cvcles and no one is considered in the swim who does not sport a pair of bloom ers or divided skirts. Mrs. Orzo W. Childs of Loi Angeles now rides a wheel, but taboocs bloomers. Mrs. J. B. Polk of Los Angeles rides daily in crinoline b'oomeri, white sweater, and leggings and tan cap. She is one of Ihe most ex pert wheelmen here and her costume is one of the most bewildering. Mr-. Walter S. Maxweli rides in tan bloomers, leggings and cap, and Mrs. QlaaseU in beads bloomers and sweater. Swimming parties are popular and every morning naif a dozen young women in.iv he seen plowing through tho surf to the 54).)-foot raft.
