Mélange of anecdotes and combative wit from domestic papers
A collage of quips and vignettes spans libel threats, editorial tricks, social rituals, and humorous scenes. It recalls West Newark church funds, theater chatter, a Philadelphia magnate, and a New York meeting dissolving as people drift away. The piece mixes satire with light storytelling and dated social scenes.
