COPPER TAVERN A

HANDSOME HOTEL

. A Miner representative visited
Skeena Crossing the other day,
and was much taken with the
new hotel, the Copper Tavern,
which is good evidence of the
faith in the future of the new
mining camp which animates

The hotel is now open to the
public, and those who have seen
it are enthusiastic in praise of
the ‘“Tavern,”” .-

The ground plan of the. build:
ing embraces an office and lobby,
bar-room, dining-room, sleeping
rooms, kitchen and pantry, store
room and lavatory,

The office and lobby is a com-
modious room in which a big,
open fire-place is the especially
attractive feature, and is fully
equipped with the best of leather
upholstered furniture, and the
large bar-room with its handsome
mahogany bar gives promise of
good cheer during the long win-
ter evenings. The big, double
windows in the dining-room af-
ford a fine view of the nearby
mountains and make it done of
the most cheerful and attractive
rooms in the house, and the
kitchen is up to date in all its
appointments. The sleeping
rooms, lavatory and store rooms
occupy the remaining space on
the ground floor. The second
story consists of sleeping rooms,
single and en suite, parlora, and
abathroom with every modern
convenience and: requirement,
The -rooma are all large and
handsomely furnished, leaving
nothing to be desired in the

‘| matter of comfort,

The hotel is particularly for.
tunate -in having an abundant
supply of the pureat water which
is‘piped from a big spring about
five hundred yards distant, and

fire protection, -

This handsome hostelry is un-
der the management of M. R.
Jamieson, an experienced and
popular hotel man who is well

jknown to all prospectors and

mining men on the coast, from
Vancouver to Dawson; as well as
to the traveling public in general,
Chef Thos, Black, who presides
over the culinary department, is
a master of his profession and
has ruled the kitchens of several
of the ‘important hotels of the
Harvey system of the Atchison,

In the construction and fur-
nishing of the Copper Tavern no
expense has been spared to make
it the most comfortable and
cheerful stopping place on the
line of the G, T. P. railway be-
tween Prince Rupert and Winni-
peg, and its patrons will be hard

than satisfied with the hospitality
dispensed under its roof.
