What shall be the name for the new
hotel which is soon to be erected in
Fargo? At meeting of the
stockholders which was held in
the office of Hancock Bros. last even
ing it was decided to call the new home
for travellers the Portland, but Mr.. Lew
is stated this morning that he had
since heard so many objections to this
cognomen that it might have to be
changed.
'The Portland sounds well and would
be easy to call out at the stations
said Mr. Lewis, but people say it is
inappropriate"
A number of other names have been
suggested. The name Grand met with
some favor. but it was feared thar on
account of one of the theatres of the
city bearing this title some. confusion
might result if the hotel were called
that. The Palace was another name
suggested. 1t is sufficiently euphon-
ious but was objected to because it is
too often seen over the doors of sa-
looms.
II should like to name the new hotel
after the great emancipation and call it
the Lincoln That would be suitable
in every way and it would be a name
of which we might we'll be proud, but
something still more appropriate may
be suggested AS we have not yet in
corporated, there is still ample time to
change the name"
! The stockholders of the new hotel
company at their meeting last evening
elected f. c. Gardner, temporary pres
ident, and o. A. Leach, temporary sec
retary Later another meeting will be
held and a board of directors and per
manent officers chosen. Mr.. Gardner
has been instructed to apply to the Sec
retary of state for a charter for the
corporation. Hancock Bros, the arch
itects. are now engaged in preparing
the plans and specifications for the new
structure Bids will soon be advertised
for and the construction work will be-
gin at an early date 1t is the inten-
tion to have the new building complet-
ed and open for business by July /

the kitchen several times and frigh-
tened the girls who were employed
there4 In vain they asked him to leave.

rived he found John out on the back
porch about half asleep: He was es-
corted to the city prison and this morn
ing Judge Ryan gave him fine Of So

ing to raise the money.
About IL o'clock last night John
Rosie was arrested at the request of

that some clothing had been missing
and he believed that Rosie had guilty
knowledge as TO their whereabouts.
John Is a Pollack and although he has
been in America for seventeen years
he does not speak the English language
fiuently In fact it was difficult to
understand him. He denied being
drunk, or knowing anything about the
clothing, and as the boarding house
keeper failed to show up at police
| headquarters, as he had agreed to.
Judge Ryan discharged the man. He
