Famed Old Boston
Hostelry Doomed
for New Structure

BOSTON, April 29.--CP-Young's
hotel, famous old Boston hosiery,
is doomed. The site on which the
building stands has been sold and
the hotel, for nearly century the
favorite gathering place of financiers
and politicians, will be demolished to
make way for a huge modern struc-
ture. Recently the historic Parker
house went the same road and last
week it was announced that the Craw-
ford house, another ancient landmark
of the city, was to be handed over
to wreckers.
Young's hotel was the successor of
Taft's coffee house, famous for its
food and the luncheon mecca Of Bos-
toms business and professional men.
In 1916 George Young took over the
coffee house and turned it into a
hotel. Since that time "Young's" had
been one of the famous hotels of the
country for its table.
