It was decidedly cold in and about
the lobby of the Mahackemo hotel
Tuesday and Wednesday, and we hear
of much complaint by the guests. For
reasons best known to the landlord
there was no steam for heating pur-
poses. Some there are who are mean
enough to say that it was because of
penuriousness. Certain it is that em-
ployees wore their top coats, and the
dispenser of liquid refreshments lighted
a lantern by which to warm his fingers
that he might attend to his duties.
