Quip and Quibble From Old Papers in Odd Snippets

A collage of comic lines and pointed quips from multiple papers. Items mention Laura Fair lecturing in New Orleans Texas papers India cholera and seasonal resorts Alphonso marriage plans a debate society question about swearing skills and libel cases involving Zach Chandler Washington Post. Jests about New York baseball umpires car conductors gate lifting and odd local notes about a Sioux maid a Dubuque hearse incident and bank burglars versus baseball logic. The piece ends with a showman’s dying bequest and a humorous disguise.
