Keighery Hotel, Auburn, NSW, 2017. Built by horse racing enthusiast, Greg Keighery in 1931, the pub today is a popular gaming hotel in western Sydney. Keighery hosted the nearby Auburn Hotel in the 1920s, and later built the pub bearing his name in Station Street. Born in 1869 in Dandenong, Victoria, he became host of the old Her Majesty’s Hotel in Pitt Street, Sydney, before becoming licensee of the Auburn Hotel. Although replaced with a different building, the Auburn Hotel also survives today. A well-known sporting identity, Keighery saw 69 Melbourne Cups during his long life. He first attended a race meeting when he was nine years of age, and raced many prominent horses, and greyhounds. Keighery was a member of the Australian Jockey Club, Tattersall’s Club, Victorian Racing Club, Sydney Cricket Ground, Royal Agricultural Society and Auburn Bowling Club. In 1931, Keighery built a new pub on the corner of Station Road and Rawson Street Auburn. Keighery’s Hotel was built at a cost of £30,000 and was described at the time of opening as being the most “up-to-date” in the State. Keighery died at the hotel at the age of 84 in 1953. Twelve of his children and 35 of his 50 grand children were in the hotel when he died, the Sydney Morning Herald reported at the time. More history of the pub:

Former Imperial Hotel, Portland, NSW. Since the closure of the cement works in 1991, the town has struggled, with the demise of several businesses, including the magnificent Imperial Hotel located in Cullen Street, overlooking the town’s well-kept sporting grounds. While Portlandturned to tourism as its saviour, promoting its magnificent heritage, it wasn’t enough to prevent the closure of the Imperial. The pub was sold in 2013, and closed for business in 2015. Where its license was removed to is anyone’s guess. The Imperial was licensed in July 1907 by Harry Corbett, from Mudgee who spent £4000 in building his grand two storey brick hotel. The 40-room pub was built by a Mr Milligan and opened for business on April 18 1908. More pub history: www.timegents.com

NO HIDDEN TREASURE

The thief who slipped out of a Warwick hotel on Saturday night with two suit cases belonging to a boarder found a surprise awaiting him when he examined the contents. The cases contained 60 left-footed rubber shoes. They were the samples of a commercial traveller. The suit cases and shoes were discovered yesterday under Helene-street Bridge, where they had evidently been tossed in disgust by the thief.

LUNATICS PRANK

SYDNEY Monday.
A man, who was a former inmate of Callen Park Lunatic Asylum, walked into a hotel at Mosman, glared at the barmaid for a few minutes and then jumped over the bar and drew an iron bar from his pocket, smashing 24 bottles of wine and 10 of whisky. He then recrossed the bar and sat on a seat in the room. The police arrested him.

Olympian visits Scarborough pub

LAST week 'Short Rounds' ran a story about the Scarborough Hotel's genrous offer of a free meal to all Olympic and Paralympic medallists. Steve, the manager of Cooneys Hotel in Wollongong, heard about the offer and showed up at the Scarborough dressed in a Cuban Olympic athlete's tracksuit with a 1975 Woonona netball gold medal around his neck. Complete with Cuban accent he told the publican he had come to collect his free meal! When the Scarborough publican asked the five-foot-nothing 'Cuban' what he had won the medal for, he replied: "Heavy-weight boxing, man." He was refused the meal, but given a free beer for his efforts! -Illawarra Mercury October 19 2000

OFF KEY

Les Needham hasn't been pulling beer at James-st.'s Victoria Hotel (Perth WA) long, but he's had a lot of laughs from the cosmopolitan custom. This week a Chinaman, wanting the celebrated half - and - half, slid up to the counter and said, 'Arp and arp.' A rookie at the lingo, Les retorted: "What do you think this is — an orchestra!"
- Mirror (Perth, WA) Saturday 13 March 1948.

MELBOURBE BEER

Our contemporary thinks it not at all improbable that ale from Melbourne-on-Yarra may become as famous as beers from Burton-on-Trent and complacently reflects that 'if Australia can meet England on the vatted field, and beat her on her beer barrels, there is undoubtedly a great future awaiting this Austral continent'.
-Australian Brewers' Journal, December 1891.

BEER BURGLAR

For several days the proprietor of Skinner's Hotel, Murwillumbah, and bar tenders, noticed that the beer was going off fast, and were at a loss as to the cause. An aboriginal, Billy Moore, was caught red handed coming from beneath the house with a couple of billy cans. The beer cellar is situated under the house, and is barricaded with battens and barbed wire. Moore, who must have had an accomplice, tunnelled underneath the barricade, and turned the tap and filled his billies. He was sent along to Grafton gaol for a month.

LAST LAUGH

Brown: "Young Smart, of the Grand Hotel, has got the laugh turned against him in his little joke against the Blazes Fire Insurance Company."
Robinson: "How?"
Brown: "He insured five hundred
cigars, smoked them, and then sent in a claim on the ground that they were destroyed by fire."
Robinson: "And they laughed at him I suppose."
Brown: "No, they had him arrested on a charge of setting fire to his own property."
- Camperdown Chronicle (Vic.) Tuesday 10 March 1914.

GREAT BEER MYSTERY

Shepparton (Victoria) will have ample beer for the Christmas festivities. Two hotels were closed in yesterday's thirsty sultry afternoon. Partial cause of the drought was that a truckload of beer consigned to Shepparton was wrongly diverted to Wodonga. Arrival of supplies will enable all hotels to be in operation this afternoon. One enterprising publican, faced with dwindling supplies, made a special trip to the brewepr in Melbourne and returned with a load of bottles - to the delight of his customers.
- Shepparton Advertiser (Vic.) Friday 24 December 1948.
