THE NEW HOTEL.
New Hostelry Will be
Opened Next Week
House Being Fur
niShed.

The new Hotel Baxter will be
thrown open to the public next
week. The furniture has arrived
and the rooms, "a of them, are be-
ing furnished. The entire build
ing has been papered, and painted,
and overhauled, and cleaned up,
except the Office. A special pattern
of paper and wall decoration has
been ordered from Chicago, but as
it has not yet arrived, the supposi-
ton is it has been delayed by high
water and floods somewhere. There
are forty elegant rooms in the
house, but only twenty four will be
furnished at this time. Every room
is an outside one, and the ventila-
ton and light is excellent.
Mr.. J. A. McCune of Leavenworth
will be mine host at the new hos
telry. Mr.. McCune is an ex travelling
man, knows the wants of the trav-
cling public and how to supply
them, and has had large amount
of experience in the hotel business,
having at one time run large ho-
tel at lola, Kansas. The cuisine
will be in competent hands, while
