WAUCOMA HOTEL
CHANGES HANDS

p. f. Fouts has disposed of the
Wauooma Hotel to Chas. Hail, the
druggist, and Ernest G. Smith, attor-
ney, the deal icing made Saturday
through j. ii. HeiltronneI and Co
The property is 81 feet on second
street and 100 on Cascade Avenue, the
present hotel building occupying only
a portion of the ground. The price
paid was $780,
The management of the hotel will
be in charge of MIR. aud Mrs. Smith,
who will take up quarters in the hotel
and give 1t their personal supervision.
They have had considerable experience
in the hotel business aud will make it
a success.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fouts have built up a
fine hotel business since they huilt
the hotel four years ago, but failing
health of Mrl Fouts makes it impera
tive that they retire and seek quiet
er life. They will probably make
their hCme in Portland for the pres
ent, to be near their son, Seneca, and
spend this summer at the coast, going
to California next winter.
Mr.. Fout3 recently purchased IA
ranch on the Little White Salmon,
three miles from Cooks station, on
the North Bank, and will spend much
OF his time there this summer.
On account Of the inci easing de,
mand here for hotel Accommodations,
the new proprietors will probably en.
large the hotel st an early dpy, aud
there is sufficient ground with the
property to do this, both on the west
and south of the present huildiup.

have been won by Hood River apple
growers at the different fairs and ex-

windows could be lined with the cups,

glass shelves to hold the cups. There
are enough cups and other prizes in
