The King Who Was a Pauper
A wealthy king sits in his private room amid Wall Street bustle imagining life before riches. He recalls his queen and their old park walks, resents the distance money has built between them, and wonders if wealth is worth the lost soul of companionship. The moment ends as he rushes out to attend engagements, leaving the mystery of happiness unresolved.

Pensioner Seeks Reduction of Monthly Benefit
Mr Ware, commissioner of pensions, received a letter from an Illinois man asking to cut or suspend his pension of 30 dollars per month claiming wider prosperity. He cites service to the country and seeks a reduced amount, noting 80 dollars monthly would be excessive. The bureau has never received such a request before.
