The Old Bell Relic At Cornell University
A veteran bell once used to awaken child laborers in an English factory is now at Cornell University. Robert Collyer, eight years old then, later a noted preacher, cut the bell from his boyhood hoistings and gave it to the university as a relic of barbarism. The piece references past brutal hours and hints at looming federal child labor reforms supported by Senators Lodge and Beveridge, with promises of action to curb interstate童 commerce child production.

Brutal double murder case shocks New Mexico territory
Yesterday in Socorro an alleged murder in the first degree was charged against Carlex Sales after a brutal crime in the Manzano mountains. Two miners, John Billingsley and William McLaughlin, were lured to a gorge by Sais and Valles while prospecting and murdered for their sins. Mrs. Billingsley defended others with a pistol, and the crime is cited as a swift example of expediting justice in the territory.

Sheep Drive 1000 Miles With 34000 Sheep Is Described
R. A. Daly of Omaha leads seventeen men and 34 000 sheep overland from Santa Fe New Mexico to Stevenson Nebraska to defend a railroad contract.

The herd faced dehydration near rivers, grazing limits, and a long arduous route ending at Stevenson with many lambs drowned and the journey late in reaching its destination.
