RESTAURANT.
Yesterday, Frank & Bro. opened a commodious new restaurant and Billiard Saloon at Nos. 84 and 86 LaSalle street. opposite the Court House. The establishment presented an appearance not to be excelled in the North-West for convenience and comfort. The restaurant is supplied from an extensive and most liberal kitchen. There is not an establishment in the city which offers better inducements to the hungry and weary than that of the Messrs. Frank.
