Nicholas and Associates Figure in Deal of Long Two Hundred Thousand Acres of Standing and Draft Improvements for Joining Buildings into Largest Hotel in Wyoming A deal whereby the Midwest and Henning hotels will be consoli- dated into the largest and most palatial hostelry in the state was Con- comprising ubout 200,000 acres of cluded this week by J. G. Nicholas and Denver associates, who have: tndian lands in. Montana and Wyom-| ceived numerous applications to di- plans drafted and accepted for remodeling work that will run into!ing. Of this big tract, about 33,000| vert and appropriate water in such a thousands of dollars and place the management in position to meet every requirement of a metropolitan hostelrv. Hotel company, former owners of the Henning, was not taken, over in the deal, only the immediate sisting of furnishings and other equipment, being involved in the pur- chase. Under the reorganization the new hostlery will be known as the Henning Hotel, the change being scheduled for the present month. News of this merger was first known by the Daily Tribune Tuesday of this week, and, in fact the story yas set up in type, but announcement withheld at the request of parties interested on the grounds that all of the formalities of the ¢ had not been concluded. J. G. holas, of the Midwest Hotel, stated today that as far he and his associates were concerned, everything was_ settled but he did understand that there some divergence of opinion in an agreement between the present Hen- ning operators and W. F. Henning, owner of the building. R. R, Mitchell of the Henning said today that the consolidation wes as yet not a matter of record. Contractors will begin work remod- eling the interior to join the four and five-story buildings thru connections to be made on each floor. A parti- tion running from the Midwest lobby thru what is now known as the “red room” and extending to the present Henning elevator, together with the assets, con- removal of ali the inte parti- tions, will add material to the main lobby and provide a to the second elevator. The present Mid- west grill room will open into the large dining room of the Henning and this will be reserved for banquets and special occasions. A large portion of the present Henning lobby will thus be cut off, leaving it free for rental as a business location. The Henning kitchens will be devoted ex- clusively to baking purposes with the exception of special oceasions when banquets or other big dinn are served. Construction of the two hotels per-, mits connections on each floor by means of the halls, which are at the same level and with only slight changes and improvements the upper floors of the buildings can be joined in such a manner as to give the ap- pearance of single strueture. In 160 sleeping rooms will be pro- vided, which is 30 more than the nest largest hotel in the state. Only one office will be maintained and in the event improvements progress satis- factorily the Henning office will be closed during the course of the com- ing week should present negotiations not fall thru. By the maintta of but one lishment. better service can be given, ance according to Mr. Nicholas, who will direct the management of the hotel. Comfort and convenience will be add- ed in many ways, including the op eration of two elevators, and the change will revert to the benefit of patrons in many ways _ Mrs. W. H.

He has talked with a number of the officials of the depart- ment and they all appear a little hazy as to just how soon they will be able to uti the western posts. He has suggested that this post be utilized for the purpose of concen- tration and final discharge of soldiers living within a reasonable distance, "and utilized as soon as possible for special organizations requiring train- ing. But up to date they do not seem to have any definite plan, and the only satisfaction in any way he has been able to get is in a letter from Brigadier General J, W. Barker, acting chief of the ordnance branch, which gives some little hope for the future. SPANIOH INFLUENZA--A NEW NAME FOR AN OLD FAMILIAR DISEASE Simply the Same Old Grip That Has Swept Over the World | The Last Epidemic in the United States Was in 1889-90 Time and Again. Origin of the Disease ES} in Sp world in numero ack as history run: ers to an epidemic in 412 B, C which is regarded by many to ha been influenza. Every century has had its attacks. Beginning with 1831, this country has had five epi- demics, the last in 1889-90. The Symptoms Grip, or influenza, as it is now called, usually begins with a chill fol- lowed by aching, feverishness sometimes asea and’ dizziness, and age ‘al feeling of weakness and de- pression, The temperature is from 100 to 104, and the fever usually lasts from three to five days. The germs attack the mucous membrane, or lining of the air passages—nose, throat, and bronchial tubes—there is usually a hard cough, especially bad at night, often times a sore throat or itis, and frequently all the ap- arances of a severe head cold. The Treatment Go to bed at the first symptoms— take a purgative, eat plenty of nour- ishing food, remain perfectly quiet and don't worry. Nature herself is the only “cure” for influenza and will throw off the attack if only you conserve your strength. A_ little quinine, aspirin or Dover’s Powder may be given by the physician’s di rections to allay the aching. Always call a doctor, since the chief danger of grip is in its weaking effect on the system, which allows complications to develop. These are chiefly pneumo- nia and bronchitis, sometimes inflam- epidemics as far Hippocrates re- n pe and THE CASPER DAILY “DWERSION OF ‘STATE | WATER IS OPPOSED CROP ON INDIAN is ___FRipay, inna ise IMPANY) | ha CYRUS BRADLEY: > asdan 5 5 John -Burns,- marshal of -the ‘Shot |-= = | ‘ { BY STATE ENGINE! shoni reservation; Frank, Weber, de- a "7 4 alge ae “yr soa \ puty sheriff of Freemont county; Ar,| , The paid cy jabber, handling ia ful |" “ph ‘body ‘af Cyrus ley; who BESS net Pogue, chief of police of Lander, line of Gadd ay tires and bes, }died at his apartment ie Wyatt i | Legislation whereby a Wyoming and J.
