Seamen and fishermen were drinking noisily, and the air in the bar was thick with smoke from their pipes and cigars. From time to time someone would put a nickel coin in the slot of a music box on the wall, and the chords of some old march, polka, or waltz would rise into the air with a great crash of drums and cymbals"
