THE "SHINDL6R'
 OPENS TODAY
RESTAURANT TO OCCUPY OLD HOME OF THE MORRIS CAFE-NEW FURNISH ONE oF THE HANDsoMEST IN IRMlNGHAM.

The "Shindler" restaurant will open it's doors to the public today in the place for merly occupied by the Morris cafe. It will be conducted by Charles D. Shindler and w. G. McMeekin, who propose to make 1t one of the most attractive places in the south and to give its patrons the best service obtainable anywhere.
 The location is one of the most con- venent to the general public in the city, adjoining the Morris hotel, to which there Is an entrance and opening on the busiest section of First avenue.
 A thorough overhauling has made won derful changes in the famous old dining room of the Morris. The finishing is in mild colors of the darker shades, after the old Dutch fashion, the decorators avoiding the disagreeable glare which marks so many highly colored dining rooms. Large Dutch painclfgs adorn the walls. There will be plenty of light, both day and night but 1t will be of a kind not offensive to the eye. The tables chairs and other furnishings will be in black wood, of Dutch pattern, and have been made especially to harmonize with the general scheme of the decorators.
 In so far as service Is concerned, the proprietors have spent much time and money in procuring the very best talent along this line obtainable. The long ex- perience of the owners themselves Is an assurance that the "Shindler' will offer a bill of fare with a broad selection of dishes and that all that comes from the cuisine of their establishment will be as good as any cafe in the country affords. Though Mir Shlndler will give portion of his time to other business, he intends to keep in close touch with the restau- rant.
 The active management will fall to his partner, MT. w. G. McMeekin, who was eta rI of [anEaS City Country club He had charge also. until recently, of the Birmingham end of the Hovey system of the Frisco system. MT. McMeexn arrived yesterday and will give his entire time to the business. The proprietors have obtained the service or Joe Welna, an original Tony Faust chef, who will bring his own assistants. Any one who has ever enjoyed a Tony Faust dinner will realize the good fortune or the "Shndler' in securing chef from this excellent St Louis restaurant.
 The new restaurant will open at 5 o'clock in the morning and will not close until 2 o'clock In the morning. thus glv- ing the patrons the advantage Of almost every one of the twenty-four hours.
