REvELRY BY NIGHT
N THE METROPOLIS
az AUGugTIN I.ARpY.

New York, Jan. l6.-At midnight
tonight John Barleycorn, reeifng up
and down Broadway, hiccouRhed to
the whole world that the news re-
garding his death tonight had been
again prematureiy announced and
greatly exaggerated.
when all the lights In one famous
Broadway hostelry had been ex-
tinguished s~ve the tall tApers fiaring
at the head and foot Of silver mount
ed casket reposing on q dais In the
center of the huge ballroom: when
every head OF his devotees was be WED
in solemn mediation upon the demise
% the merry old gentleman he sat up
suddenly in his comm and shrieked q
peal OF wild laughter.
There was hysteria, reckiessness In
sanity even and fear--yes fear--in that
echoing outburst OF merriment The
pale as the ccrements that swathed
him; his hand trembied as ne seized
a fiagon near his bier and drained it at
a guip, but his eyes were twin
caverns OF flaming defiance. Then he
bounced out Of his casket. flung the
black velvet pail swaggeringly about
his fat old shoulders and staggered
out OF the room4 his hioated body
shaking with his screams OF crazy
laughter.
The lights went up: the orchestra
began jaxzing chopin.s Funeral
March and the scared New oYrkers
pale themselves, despite the eevning
OF yinous revelry, forced laugh and
drank again--drank to tomorrow
night and the second night OF King
Barleycorn's wake and funeral
drank deeply. for all New York knows
that at 1904 A. NJ, January II. 1890,
the King will be dead. the prohibition
istic heir to ALL his realm and little
eighteenth amendment will be born.
Bartenders snarlins, their backs to
the wall. drank Themselves and New
York bartender who drinks frankly
is a rarity. People who never touch
ed "shc hard stuf-' took swigs Of
whatever they could buy--mostly rye
whiskey--just to be doing what every
bodyeise was doing.
Tonight along the white Way II
seemed like New Years Eve all over
again. but New Years Eve minus
the horn-biowin1. confetti-tossing,
happy go <hcky crowds In the streets
and cafes New York took Its liquor
seriously tonight. THIS city made no
attempt to dress up" and II aEy body
dressed at all. 1t was in keeping with
the cornber hangtngs that tonight re-
placed the, gay decorations IN many
a cabaret hotel, cafe and restaurant.
The prices! Just kout the same -
New Years Eve. Table reservations
in all the big restaurants cost from
$40 to $50. There was whiskey to
be had at from 3l5 to $2S quart bot
ties champagne to be obtained a. .

little to noe bill--at all the lrst class
hotels In the dtngest saloon II was
impossible to get s'shot" OF red-eys
at less than 80 cents shot" Gin

the exception OF real four per cent
