IN OLD DAYS AT TOMBSTONE

The famous old Can Can restaurant,

ca of miners, cowpunchers, adventur-
ers and gamblers, who lived in Tomb
stone in the early days, and which was

During its many years of existence
much history was wound around the
famous old restaurant, but it ceased
to exist some six or eight years ago,
when John Hanniger closed its doors
and left for California. Later it was
reopened as the American Kitchen by
two local pioneer Cinnamon, All Lum
and All Sing.
After few years All Sing and All
Lum had a failing out" and All Sing
started the Tombstone cafe and All
Lum ran the place and later closed it,
retaining the lease.
Wednesday he closed deal selling
his fixtures and lease to Mrs. A. Stan
iger, who will reopen it in few days
under the original name, the Can
Can Restaurant" and under that name
it will soon be known from coast to
coast, since the tourists have read
about it in Wolfville tales, and make
