Mr. S. E. Hoopes, proprietor of the New National Hotel, Minneapolis, has found that his Dutch is entirely inadequate of accommodating his patrons and has decided to enlarge it to three times its present capacity. He has already let the contract for building the additional room and other improvements to cost $22 000. The new improvements will not interfere with the present room which will lye open continuously until the new and enlarged Dutch Room is completed, which will be about Sept. 1st.
When completed the same handsome design and effect will remain throughout as it is in the present room. Mr. Hoopes is one of the live and up-to-date hotel men of the Twin Cities and never allows anything to go undone that will add to the comfort and convenience of his guests.
