Protest Over Pryor Street Closure to Depot Plan
Captain W D Ellis urges Pryor street property owners to unite against a proposed depot on the present site and the closing of Pryor street. He argues it would split the city, hinder traffic and streetcar movement, and hurt Alabama street, proposing a meeting to organize opposition and seek alternatives such as a Pryor street entrance or a subway under the depot. The depot commission says Loyd street will remain open and a pedestrian subway may be built under Pryor street. The letter notes a meeting of owners may form to decide on a course of action.

The Passing Throng H and the Rise of Thomas Peirce
An aging art club member recalls Thomas Mitchell Peirce from the 1990s at the Art Students League in New York. Peirce drew gritty comics for The Evening World and Journal, gaining notice for his pen and ink studies in American Girls. His persistence led to broader recognition, though early work faced harsh critique, yet editors encouraged him as he pursued illustration and cartooning success. A separate Newark tragedy notes the death of Donatu by hospital discharge after neck injury from steel, with subsequent complications from esophagus damage and a fatal hemorrhage.
