Daily miscellany on politics and curiosities from Detroit papers
A collage of quotes and quips from various papers touches on Michigan politics and national figures. It notes Democratic optimism, long hair for Oscar, Bayard and Durbin Ward, and a mocked doomsday date. It includes fashion chatter, temperance alarm by Free Will Baptists, gossip about Mrs Langtry, a Buffalo police joke, a joke about corsets, literary lines, and a string of observations about Charlie Foster, Durbin Ward, Edison, Henry Clay Dean, and Texas miracle water.
