TO BUILD A HOTEL
Pabst Brewing Company Purchases
the Property OF Mrs. SybilIa Zeit
Ter on Milwaukee Avenue.
NEW HALL FOR THE NORTH SIDE

A deal was completed this morning
by which the Pabst Brewing company
purchased the property of Mrs.
Sybi11a Zeit1er, at the corner of
Orange street and Milwaukee avenue,
and it is announced that with the
opening of the spring the property
will be enlarged and converted into a
hotel for the use of the 1aboring men
Of the city.
The consideration for the property
was $4,000, and real estate men be
1ieve that the property was sold at a
fair figure.
The architects of the brewing com
pany will at once begin plans for the
enlargement of the property and it
will be changed so that it will be a
first class hotel. Attic present time
there is no hotel in that section of the
city and the plan Of the Pabst COM
pany is considered shrewd business
move.
Agent Gottfredsen, in speaking Of
the deal this morning, admitted that
ll1O III CWOly 1ldd OldOOldlO pans 1Ol
the building at the corner purchased,
but stated that no announcement of
the plans could be made until the
plans for the building had been com
p1eted by the architect.
He stated, however, that added to
the hotel feature of the new building,
the company would furnish the peo-
pie of the North Side with another
entertainment hall. The hotel and
clearinghouse feature, however, will
be emphasized.
It is reported that two of the Mil
waukee brewing companies are nego-
tiating for the purchase of property
near the depot and it looks as if there
would be three new hotels in Kenosha
during the present year.

BROWN Is ACQUITTED.
Pleasant Prairie Coy Exonerated by
Jury of Charge of Embezzlement.

Charles D. Brown, of Pleasant
Prairie, who has been on trial in the
Circuit court of Racine for the past
three days on a charge Of en1bezzling
the funds of the Milwaukee Electric
Railway company was acquitted Of
that charge by a jury Wednesday
night.
The jury was out four hours but it
is stated that there was only one of
the members of the panel who was in
favor of finding Brown guilty of the
charge alleged. Brown will at once
institute a suit in the courts of Racine
county to recover money which he
paid over to the company when they
threatened to prosecute him. It is
thought possible that he will also
bring an action for damages.

MESSENGER CAN NOW ACT.
Archbishop Receives Special Dispense ton
Permitting Him to Officiate.

Archbishop Sebastian Gerhard
Messmer yesterday received from
Rome the special dispensation which
permits him to officiate as head Of the
diocese of Milwaukee without having
first received the pa1lium. Although
the archbishop was proclaimed over a
month ago he has been unable to per-
form the pontiflca1 functions Of his
office because he has not yet received
the pa11iun1, and this will not be con-
ferred upon him until June or July.
The dispensation, however, removes
this disability.
The archbishop's first act in his
new dignity will be to oficiate at the
ordination at st. Francis seminary on
Saturday and Sunday.

Attorney James cayanagh Drafting an
Ordinance to Limit Sale OF Liquor
to intoxicated Persons.
TO REVERSE AN ORDINANCE.
saloon Men Would be Forced to Give the
Liquor Free Of Charge to Inebri-
ates and Those Blacklisted.

Attorney James Cavanagh, who is
recognized as one Of the best consti-
tutiona1 lawyers in the State, has be-
gun the work Of drafting an ordinance
to be presented to the City Council,
which will revo1utionize the dealings
Of the city with intoxicated and black
listed persons.
Under the present ordinance Of the
city the saloon man is prevented from
selling liquor to any inebriate or per-
son on the black list, but Mr.. Cava-
nagh's ordinance will reverse the ma
! ture Of things, and the saloon man
! and not the inebriate will be brought
before the law. The ordinance will
provide that the saloon man must
give liquor free of charge to any in
ebriate or black listed man who APP
pears before his bar and demands
service. The ordinance will make it
Unable offense for the dealer to ac-
cept any money for the service to such
persons.
In this way the dealer will be forced
to furnish liquor to all such men at a
financial loss, and he will have no re-
course from the law if he allows these
people to enter his place of business.
It is a well known fact that three
fourths Of the saloons in the city at
the present time will sell liquor to
any one, regardless of his condition.
Men who are known to be habitual
drunkards and men who are inebria-
ties have repeatedly secured liquor
from the best known saloons in the
city and the fines that are charged
against men arrested on this charge
seem to have little weight in prevent
ing the renewal Of the charge.
Mr.. Cavanagh's ordinance will not
leave the saloon man without re-
source, for as soon as he discovers
that man is on the black list he can
go before the Council and have the
man declared a public nuisance, and
take steps to prevent his coming into
the saloon. At the same time he can
enjoin the drunkard from coming into
his place and forcing him to supply
him With liquor at nnancial loss.
The ordinance would protect both
the saloon man and the inebriate, and
it would make it impossible for the
latter to continue to secure liquor.
Mr.. Cavanagh in speaking of the
ordinance this morning stated that he
had considered at length the consti-
tutiona1ity of it, and that it was his
opinion that the ordinance could be
enforced without bubble. He stated
that the saloon man was given every
possible 1oop-ho1e, but at the same
time it made the efforts of the intoxi-
Gated person to secure drink of no
| effect.
The new ordinance will be present
ed to the Council in two or three
weeks and it will undoubtedly attract
wide attention all over the State.
