Wau Hotel
pp. 13-14 · Read in the full issue
RECENT visitors to Sydney include Mr. and Mrs. James Stewart, who estab lished the Hotel Bulolo at Wau, New Guinea, in the early days of the goldfield, and have made it one of the best known hostelries in the South Seas. They have been enjoying a well-earned holiday in Victoria and Tasmania.
It was reported, in September, that Mrs.
Stewart had sold the hotel to Mr. James Fraser, of Queensland; but that was not quite correct. Mr. Fraser, who contem plates the transfer of some of his sub stantial interests to New Guinea, has pur chased a share in the hotel, but it will be conducted, as heretofore, by Mrs. Stewart.
The Waipahi left Suva on Nov. 9, with a cargo of Fijian fruit for the N.Z. market.
