National Legislation At The Hands Of Congress
A review of last session notes little business legislation passed. The postal subsidy bill, while small in treasury impact, will face scant support in the next Congress. Bankruptcy, Pacific rail funding, and pooling clause reforms stalled, with far less chance of passage as farmers alliance influence grows and Democratic opposition strengthens.

Winslow Challenges Delfshaven Pilgrim Monument Move
At the New England Historic and Genealogical Society meeting in Boston, Rev Willian C Winslow opposed the Congregational Club's plan to fund a $25,000 monument at Delftshaven commemorating Pilgrim hospitality from the Dutch Republic. He argued no proof exists of Dutch government or society aiding the Pilgrims and urged a broader national recognition instead.

Ticketing blunder leaves buyer paying extra for past performance
A Boston woman bought three theatre seats at the uptown box office. She later found the tickets dated for a previous show and was told no exchange or refund was possible. The agent and manager cited law and policy, offering admission at price but not the correct value, forcing her to pay the higher amount for seats worth less than the advertised evening.

Antiquity of the Glacial Period Examined by Shaler
Professor N S Shaler spoke to the Natural History Society on Berkeley Street about the antiquity of the glacial period and the possibility of new glaciation. He argued ice forms are forming on hillsides and that, after early glaciers retreated, the land rose from submerged conditions, influencing flora such as walnuts 600 miles north. He dismissed Indians carrying nuts as transit and presented Alpine photographs, while N M Davis outlined the Triassic Connecticut formations.
