for alleged damage to the roads they

BANK PROSPECTS
AT a Very Early Date Of the Towns
Existence, Emil Bilharz Appeared
Built a Large Restaurant.

When Audubon was young in years
Emil Bilharz, wife and two children
came to the town and erected what is
today the Frank Rice restaurant.
From the start his business was good.
He and his good wife were so affiable,
kind and courteous to the public that
his business grew beyond his room in
which to handle it. He bought
lots across the street and erected his
present large double store building,
gave up the restaurant business,
stocked the big store with a general
stock of merchandise and moved in,
and from the day it opened to the
present time, it has been under his
able management, assisted by his son
Ed. From the best information OBJ.
tainable at this time, Mr.. Bilharz has
fully determined to fit up the Rice
restaurant and convert it into 8
modern bank. For that purpose Mr.
Bilharz is reported to be in Chicago
