women, all distinguished by some
grace Of form, and all so dressed
in tights, plush velvets and span
giles, as to exhibit the same to ad-
vantage.
| You are no sooner seated than
one Of these creatures is at your
side to take your order. "Two
layers" CANT yer goin' to treat"
sxclaims the coarse imitation of q
Black Crook angel. "No"! She
brings the lager in a huff, and
fits away to find more accommo-
dating customers. Her "treat"
consists of three fingers of sarsa-
parilla, and she leans against the
glass with all the nonchaIance of
an old topper, laughing in her
sleeve, meantime, at the bewild-
cred greenhorn, who pays his forty
cents, under the fond suspicion
that he has contributed 20 her
welfare glass of real brandy and
and water. Of course the damsel
pockets the difference. The SAL
ary Of these miserable women is
about seven dollars a week, bus
by swindling and commissions they
manage to make fifteen or twenty
dollars. - ,...-.., szc
Leaving this disgusting place,
Wemove on to one which is thorough
ly German, and respectable. The
attendants here are men; the
drinks only beer, and the music,
which nightly attracts several
hundred people, is furnished by
female band, who came to this
country from Austria, and for
time made q sensation in the reg
ular concert room. They play the
best Geman music and the enter
tainment is akin to that which
may be seen in every city and
town of the Faderland.
Past troops Of people now COM
ing from the theatres, past beg
gars, organ grinders and street
walkers by the thousand; past
restaurants aglow with light and
filed with ladies and gentlemen
past bar rooms whence come the
mufied sounds ofcursing and con-
versation, we reach the up town
hotels and come to anchor. But
the Great Spirit of Unrest is even
there, for if it has been a busy
day on Change, Wall Street is
transferred to the corridors and
vestibules. and the roar Of the
monetary tide terminates only
long after honest folks should be
abed.'
The engineer has touched solid
foundation for the New York side
Of the great Brooklyn wire bridge,
h and has commenced the masonry
work within the caisson. Berg,
the animal phiianthropist, has
just had a man sent to the Peni-
tentiary for tearing out a horses
tongue. The Mercantile Library
is now open on Sundays, but the
authorities had first to secure a
liberal speech from Beecher, to
pave the way for public opinion.
The Aldine for May is just out,
giving further proof of the won
derful progressive power Of its
conductors, both in the art and
literary department. tits, indeed,
a triumph for America that it's
youthful civilization has given to
the art world a publication so
unique in conception and so ex-
cellent in it's development. It is
| published by the well-known house
of James Sutton & Co., % Liberty
street.
The fever and ague is flourish
ing in upper New York and the
suburbs with more than ordinary
vim. The low grounds around
Central Park especially seem
adapted to bring on a personal
earthquake and were it not for an
| old Knickerbocker remedy known
and largely used in this vicinity
as the st. John Pills, the doctors
might reap a harvest. There is
some peculiar aggressive virtue
about the preparation however,
which in nine cases out Of ten
wins the fight with disease, and
makes the people of the afflicted
locality 90 for their pill boxes
with religious regularity. As they.
! do not belong to the family Of
| nostrums, but are a well known
professional staple, it may serve
some unfortunate to know this
fact. They are at present con-
trolled by Messrs. Joseph A. Nor
gan & Co., Of 1913 Greenwich
Street, n. Y.
