LUXURIOUS BERLIN.
BERLIN, Jan. 3,
There was great revelry in Berlin on New Year’s Eve, or, as they e a h it, Sylvester Abend. All the city seemed to have been out of doors, and tho streets were full of happy people joking and tickling each other’s necks with feather instruments of torture. • The theatres and restaurants were filled with people. Luxurious motorcars took rich women and their sponsors from the opera to the fashionable restaurant, where people drank champaigne and danced until three in tho morning. The last revellers left one hotel at nine this morning, after ending a day’s night with a hearty breakfast.
•Simple people drank wine and beer in smaller taverns and restaurants, and those who could afford nothing better saw the New Year in on a table in a cafe; but even in cafes, where ordinarily one ordered beer, there was the popping of ehampaigne corks last night.
