Dr Daniel Coit Gilman, former president of Johns Hopkins University, presided over a Carnegie trust gathering. The session reviewed ongoing work and future directions for the nonprofit supporting education and scientific research.
In the Topeka Mail and Breeze a humorous piece centers on a vain fat steer among men admiring him. The steer boasts until a lean rival notes the steer’s fate, predicting his carcass will hang in the packing house in three days. Moral: hubris invites a swift setback. The column also touts King’s New Life Pills and includes a passage on farming and Negro labor in the South, quoting Gen. Cox on rural work and race.
The passage highlights Dr. Gilman with LL.D. degrees from Yale to UNC and leadership roles in the American Oriental Society, Archaeological Society of America, National Civil Service Reform league, and various educational funds. It also notes his Norwich birth in 1831 and his writings on history and education, alongside a portrait of jewelry manufacturing in Attleboro's New England hubs and Salt Shaker current anecdotes about Paris streets and salt use.
A brief note defines spring fever as bilious illness with toxic effects on the body. It describes an inactive liver and sluggish bowel as polluted systems and warns that a serious illness may follow if early symptoms are ignored.
