Mr. u. Hacker, an uncle of Mr.. Erwin Hack
ker, who has been running a restaurant in Gin
cinnatl for Is years. will arrive here Today with
an entire outfit, and will open IL restaurant in
the room on Main Street, next to the Blue Front.
A nice, clean, restaurant. where the cooking is
good. the air of the dining room kept tree from
the kitchen odors, the tables neatly furnished,
the service prompt, and the charges moderate,
can coin money in Lexington. But there must
be money spent to make the room arst-class in
all its appointments. This, we are told. Mr..
Hacker intends to do. We wish him success.
