New York Town Talk on Mayoral Scramble and Society
The New York mayoral race draws lively interest with Henry George backed by working groups while Henry Edward Simmons appeals to business pillars. Prohibition remains weak. Society notes include Miss Lizzie Zerega’s wedding to Pelham Clinton, a Tuxedo Park ball, a coming horse show, and Wilson Barrett’s quiet New York debut. Theatre chatter covers Miss Cameron at the Casino and a libel risk around A Wall Street Bandit. Scribner’s Magazine plans a literary tone with 25 cent issues and a peak Authors’ Club season ahead.
