Detroit Mich. April 2O.-Nearly
a score OF noted Detroit bars are
among the thousands OF drinking
places which will close their doors
when the state goes bone dry on
the first day Of May. Some OF these
places were prosperous IN Civil war
days, when their variety shows
were considered a keen attraction
for visitors. Other saloons have
been noted as haunts Tor politicians,
journalists and artists; StlIl others
have been stained by countless
crimes and here and there, m what
NOW is the business district, are
rather quiet places which, in genera
tions past echoed to the laughter OF
royalty and the clink OF wagered
gold.
The bar room in the present Hotel
Pontchartrain is built upon the site
,Of the old Russell home, Dctrolts S
