Gotham contains 500,000 novelists, divid- 
ed into men, women and children. 
Gotham offers innumerable different 
ways of starving to death, a powerful ap- 
peal to our passionate love of variety. 
Although everyone in Gotham has in- 
somnia, the price of lodgings rules firm. 
There are said to be places in Gotham 
‘ where wholesome food can be got, but so 
cheaply that self respecting people never 
go there. 
Gotham is constantly wronged by tour- 
ists, who come to see J. Pierpont Morgan 
lunch off a glass of milk and a piece of pie; 
the Statue of Liberty Enlightening the 
World without laughing; and other won- 
ders. 
The Battery is a mere name. The really 
shocking things are farther uptown. 
Gotham people are spending millions, to 
say nothing of the time lost, in being blown 
up every 10 minutes, for a rapid transit 
tunnel which will bring them within easy 
striking distance of nature and nature’s 
God.
