Supposed Brain Food Wit And Odd Observations
A Jersey City paper jokes about abstinence and weather delays while commenting on baseball prospects and local humor. It notes St Louis coroners relying on beer for inquests, Tom Ochiltree’s quips about Grant, and a quip about Jefferson’s Declaration desk now owned by many families. It remarks on letters sent in yellow envelopes and census modesty in tone.
