DUPONT HOTEL.


From the Newark Ledger.
The wish OF long number of
years is realized Wilmington and
the State OF Delaware now has a mag
nificent modern hotel. The Hotel
DUPONT, q mangnifcent structure at
Tenth and Market streets, surpasses
anything Of the kind ever attempted
in the Diamond State. From the first
to the twelfth story Of this modern
fire-proof structure elegance and
comfort prevail. Nothing has been
left undone or incomplete for the
comfort of patrons. An attempt at
description of the interior of such a
modern hotel is little less than use
less. 1t must be seen in all its beauty,
comfort and equipment to half realize
the great expense and engineering
skill that has been expended on it.
Beauty Of decoration meets the eye
everywhere Delaware can be well
proud of the Hotel DUPONT 1t marks
a new era in Wilmington march of
progress.
The inspection OF the hostelry on
Tuesday by representative citizens OF
the State was an suspicious occa-
sion. The manager Of the hotel and
his able corps of assistants were un-
firing in their effort to make their
guests welcome There was only one
verdict among that great number OF
guests,-A Hotel home of rare beauty
and appointments, not surpassed by
the -Stratford in Philadel-
Dhia.
