Trouble Making And The Real Article From Puck
A humorous comparison outlines imaginary borrowed and real trouble with references to historic figures and a tale of De Pachmann. It contrasts rail disasters and stock market jitters with family demands and endurance, then recounts the pianist’s misadventure in London as he wandered all night, unable to recall his home.

Commission urges permanent Public Utilities Commission powers
A Connecticut special commission led by Attorney General Holcomb recommends vesting a permanent Public Utilities Commission with authority to grant franchises, supervise land condemnation, regulate capitalization, audit finances and safety, and fix rates. The report argues for supervisory over managerial duties and for a state body above local authorities to curb over capitalization and ensure universal service.
