NEW HENSHAW is pALATIAL
Elegant Building L. n work OF Art in
Appointment. Equipment and
Service.

T. J. O'Brien, who has been about the
busiest man In Omaha for many months,
Is about to bring to a most successful
fruition the dream Of years. In the com.
pletion Of the beautiful New Henshaw
hotel on Farnsm. between Fifteenth and
Sixteenth streets, he has accomplished a
task he laid out for himself many years
ago when he engaged in the hotel business
on a much smaller scale. Though he will
not have satisfied his ambition fully until
he has completed a duplicate of the pres
ent elght-story edifice OF fireproof con-
crete, he has done enough 20 assure him
self that his aspirations will not suffer
and that he will give to Omaha one OF the
most attractive and elegant modern hostel
rles the west knows anything about.
A visit through the New Henshaw re-
veals scenes Of surprising splendor. The
cafe opening on the street and extending
from Farnam back to the alley is a half
block Of niagnificence not to be eoualed
in many cities Of the country. A New
Yorker has recently pronounced II the
most massive dining room &c ever saw.
1t is finished in Just $4,000 worth OF
mahogany. Immediately under this dining
room is TO be one Of exact dimensions,
the rathskeller, when the hotel. is entirely
finished. The rathskeller has come TO stay;
1t will make It's debut in Omaha when
Mr.. O'Brien opens his palatial under
ground room, but In some of the larger
cities, notably ST. Louis, II has made a
place for itself that can never be taken
from 1t. And, strange to say, McTague,
owner of the Henshaw before Mr.. OBrlen.
is the st. Louis pioneer.
The carpets, furniture and other fixtures
and accommodations in the rooms, ak
stories of which are equipped and occu-
pied already. form a wholesome combina-
ton Of the artistic and homeiike COM
fort. Until the other concrete structure
goes UP next year, the old Henshaw VIII
be Joined to the new and a spacious hotel
home thus provided. This Is being done
now at great expense, much OF which will
be a dead load on Mr.. O'Brlen, as the
work Of juncture must be undone when
the twins are completed. The new build
ings, which will, in fact, form one edifice.
will be identical in architecture and con-
and be separated only by a court
of sixteen feet. This will be the better
for the air processes and will preserve tho
basic principle Of making every room an
outside room.
