A SECOND STORY BUSINESS.
Bostons Liquor Sale Orders Bring About Some
Queer Proceedings.

Boston, March 24.-The police Co,l-
miSsioncrs' order of yesterday. forbid
ding the sale of liquor and food in the
same room in Which bars are located
on Sundays ana holidays had the of-
feet of driving patrons of seCond-cla
hotels to the second stories. today.
Wash stands ana bed room chairs
were improvised as serving tables and
around them the guests crowded while
they were served 10y walters All the
larger hotels carried on business as
usual, as the order applied only To the
holders of second-class lincenseS. il be-
ing given, it is said. with the idea of
preventing the sale of liquor within
sight of the street.
TIE order affected the West End of
the city to a greater degree than any
other section Of the city because the II
hotels there have been more literally
patroniZed, than those of other parts
of the city on Sundays and holidays.
Until today. it had been difficult for
the public at large to distinguish be-
tween first and second class hotel
on Sunday but today. the line was
very clearly defined The first class
hotel was doing business as of old
while those of the second-class were
obliged to close their cafes.
