tirely new, finely furnished and kept In
first-class order, q somewhat higher rate
ia charged. The table is excellent IN
every regard and the beds and bedrooms

Hunt a Jackman, the proprietors, are
both popular men, and they have accom-
modatisns for over loo persons. The
hotel Is surrounded by porches on each
story, and the view from these Is truly
grand. Especially 10 10 beautiful on q
