Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Fire of Spring In 1895, seven years before the new Annex brought the Pompeian room into existence, there were, in Chicago, three or four popular resorts frequented by that small, but lucrative class of men who make a practice of knowing certain unclassed sides of city life. Of these places, none was more popular than the Wellington bar: the antechamber, accessible from Jackson street, to the sacred precincts of private dining-rooms on the second floor of the hotel. In this large, square room, at noon, on the fourteenth day of March, there was a crowd larger than usual, drawn to conviviality perhaps by the vivid sunshine outside and the hint of spring in the boisterous West wind. Round the bar there was the usual loud talk of La Salle street and the Board. But the subjects under discussion at the tables, were handled in discreeter fashion. For instance, in the corner nearest the hotel entrance, sat three men, two of whom, glass in hand, were drinking the health of the third, whose engagement had been announced that morning.
