It cites Khartoum pronunciation, a jail sentence for bigamy, a Toledo hotel elevator kiss trial, Irish legends, scientific musings, gas fears, and small town oddities. Several brief anecdotes mention editors, ministers, skating rinks, and a 5 year old tobacco smoker, all treated with wry understatement.
BIRD'S-EYE VIEWS Touches on Suffrage and Oddities
A collage of brief items ranges from Senator Walthall’s moustache and Tangier island mackerel propagation to Edmonds seeking a $20,000 four story brick home permit, glue and paraffin labels for acids, and a 1887 Wisconsin vote on woman suffrage in schools. It notes a New York charity orchid exhibit, Bolivian cotton tree seed nitrogen content, and a French academy seed paste as milk substitute. It also covers lightships connected by telegraph, a humorous Locust Grove rooster, and a Britannica tone piece on China’s name origin. The clip includes mining relics near Kamas Utah, a 63,000-volume Capitol law library led by John Wilkinson, gum arabic shortages in Africa, and price jumps. It closes with civil service reform debates, a Treasury watchman anecdote, and a German silver spoon worker’s hair color.
