The new \Da-Ko-Ta as it is called, occupies a commanding position facing the river, and when the parking of the ground in front of the hotel is completed it will, without a doubt, be the most picturesque hotel estate in the northwest. In designing the Da-Ko-Ta, the architect drew his inspiration from the modified Moorish type common to Spanish America, but in utilizing solid cement instead of the flimsier material of the south, he has harmoniously blended its graceful curves and delicate detail with the bold free effect of mass- ive construction, and the generous areas and general roominess are peculiarly attractive in so large a building: The Da-Ko-Ta is, without doubt, the most complete hotel building west of St Paul, a veritable city under a single roof, with all the departments, modern machinery and eqiiiptuant under an organiz- ation that is necessary for perfect service. With A frontage of 464 feet and a depth ;arcing' from 100 to 250 feet, the main structure and its wings form a eolossal caravansary that will provide for every want for over 300 guests. The main lobby in which the office is located late little of the appearance of commercialism about it. There is an air of home- like, refined hospitality, in its breadth and height, its soft brown tones, its beautifully panelled and beamed walls and ceilings, its alcoves, its cheerful fireplace and its rich upholstered furnishings. And yet, this is the nerve center from which the affairs of this great establishment are directed. A walk thru the building is 11 revelation to the one who has never considered. the marvels of modern hotel keeping, The din- ing room for example, occupies a wing by itself—a high vaulted room with ceiling panelled in natural fir, a gallery at one end. and concealed side lights from above. It is by all odds the hand- somest in the state, and all of its fittings are in harmony. Below in the basement, is a grill room that will serve a la carte, and will keep open continuosly. The halls are wide and well lighted, with several alcoves or hall parlors for resting, writing, or reception. The rooms vary to suit different tastes, but all are uniformly light- ed by electricity, connected by in- tercommunicating telephones. have hot and cold running water, hand- some brass bedsteads and furnish- ed with solid mahogany, cireas.sian walnut, birdseye maple or oak furniture. The floors are covered with costly rugs. There is con- venience in every appointment, and an atmosphere of luxury that is restful. The demand for larger quarters and special conveniences has led the management to provide many rooms of extra size with private bath and lavatories. There are also quite a number of exception- ally fine suites, lavishly and coin. pletely furnished with everything one could desire. Just off the main lobby is the general parlor and music room, large, luxurious and homelike. The bathing department is in strict keeping with the hotel prop- er, being reached by a central lobby, connecting with the office. Here is the large swimming pool measuring 10300 feet and with it depth of 31 to 9 feet from the water line. 'The forty dressing rooms are on either side, all well ventilated and light al day. The high dome ceilings with the top lights and ventilation, the roomy gallery, the broad walks surround- ing the pool, till make an attract- ive picture. \Immaculate\ is the ono word that best describes everything pertaining to the bath- ing department. The solarium, or sun parlor, at the east end of the building, is a glass enclosesl semi -circle some fifty feet across. itian rest room, where sunlight with warmth in all weathers can be enjoyed. It is fitted with couches and easy chairP, is supplied with magazines and papers add is an ideal loafing place. In the evenings concerts or dances will be given 'here, and it was in the solarium that the editors once more resolved ROMP needed reforms in their profes- sion. North of the pool is a wing of the building given over to private plunges, treatment rooms, vapor baths, tub baths, gyienaaimas. massage, hair dressing, etc. Here, too, the appointments are perfect, nothing but steel and con- crete or tile being used in con- struction. The broad veranda is the de- light of the guests, at once a pro- menade, resting plaice, dance hall and reception room for all. It is over 400 feet long and about 20 feet wide, protected by a balcony of solid masonry --a two story affair that will amply accommo- date the largest crowds. In the basement under tbe main lobby are the buffet, grill and billiard room— spacious, hand- some, adequate. These are the visible acconi- niodations open to the guests—be hind the scenes are other marvels just as essential, but interesting solely because they are so differ- ent from the old fashioned work- room, familiar to all of us. The kitchen, Pantries, storeroom, cold storage, laundry and other essen- tial departments are all fitted with the newest and best equipment— labor saving devices that are, many of them, too intricate for the average layman to understand. A description of Hunter's Hot Springs would not be complete without referring to the landscape gaidening that is now underway. and which a ill give .a fitting fore- ground for the new building. As this article is being written, work- men are engaged in tearing down the oldluildings, occupied by the swimming pool, the bath houses and laundry, and, within a few days practically all of the old out houses scattered over the estate will be removed. The roadway in front of the building will be macadamized and will be bordered on its south side by a stone coping. The cold stream that now flows thru the grounds will be opened up, brush removed, and everything that at present mars the beauty of the grounds will be taken away. The plans contemplate trans- planting thousands of trees, lay- ing out flower beds, _constructing fountains, building path and road- ways. In the 'mirk facing the old hotel, called the Upper House, conside‘r- able work has already been done in converting the grove and grounds into a children's play ground. Rustic bridges, gravel walks and rustic seats have been put in place, and swings. merry - `go -rounds and other devices for the amusement of the ehildren 1909. A. . NUMBER 30 I have been installed. The old barn and buildings that have for twenty years occupied a place in the grove are lising torn down; in a few weeks when this work will have been eotnpleted the children's play ground will be ft veritable fairy land for the youngsters. The line of tile new electric rail- road that will connect Hunter's Hot Springs with the railroad has been laid out, and as soon as eels; Lain obstacles in arranging for the *right of way witrtthe count* corn- missioners fire set tied,' the work on the a road will begin. It is hoped to get this line in working order this . year, but it is certain that this improvement will not be de- laye later than next spring. But after all, it is the same old Hunter's Hot Springs so dear to Montana people; the sainie giant flow of magic water is there, and the.same old generous hospitality, but the spirit of program* has transfornied it into a bower of beauty, has smoothed away the ugly spots that marred its natural attract -icon -eel and thrown about it an enchantment that is irresist- ible.
