Buried Alive in Samara Exposes Russian Bureaucracy
The London Times Geneva correspondent reports a Samara case where Tichonoff, a machine depot writer, was buried alive after an epileptic fit and mistaken death. Funeral officials delayed disinterment due to police and church red tape, ending in the man’s death five hours after groans were heard. The incident underscores Russia’s crippling administrative formalities.

The Artist and the Surgeon at Bougival
Painter Meissonier overfeeds his dog causing a leg fracture. Surgeon Nelaton treats the dog after a tense visit, and Meissonier writes thanks while Nelaton humorously demands payment in paints rather than money. Boissonnier then creates two masterworks on the cabinet panels.
