E. E. Hale's Hints to Writers in Boston Journalism
A long critique of Edward E Hale and his imagined hints to writers discusses writing as a masterly duty rather than a mere pursuit. It contrasts two kinds of genius, argues against serial journalism for daily papers, and praises Mrs. Stowe for pursuing strong purposeful writing over comfort and self interest.

Marriage Reform in Japan and Civil Affairs Debate
The writer argues Japanese marriage is civil, with religion playing no role, unlike strict Western systems. Divorce exists, but public efforts by wives to retain husbands fail, as relatives discourage such. Issues include restitution of a wife's property and calls for reform: equal morality for husbands, illegal concubinage, and maintenance obligations after separation.

Novel cash box promises change on street railway cars
A New Orleans novelty on exhibit by John T. Wilson at the City and Lake Railway office demonstrates a fare box that also makes change. The device accepts fares and dispenses exact coins through an ingenious mechanism guided by weight and size, with four dial indicators showing coin stock. It aims to save drivers from handling money and seems promising, though only practical use will prove success.
