New York Ladies Run Bar Room Foray Near Broadway
A Cincinnati Inquirer correspondent describes a New York bar tematically patronized by women. Located near Broadway by Stewart’s mart and Wallich’s Theatre, the store blends confectionery sales with a stylish bar. Two mustached bartenders in white coats attend the front, serving hot and cold drinks including tom and jerry, hot puseh, coffee, lemonades, ginger ale, and sodas. Women linger three deep, paying for their own drinks, while polite bar-room cues echo the social scene. The piece then shifts to a history of hats, tracing headwear from ancient times to the thirteenth century and noting costume changes through centuries.
