Two young men in city life and a fatal turn
Talmage recalls Edward and Nicholas as urban temptations tempt fate in a Brooklyn sermon. Edward descends into vice, loses work, and dies after a city life of indulgence, while Nicholas rises through discipline and faith, safeguarding family and faith. The contrast underscores religion as the difference between ruin and redemption.

A Dakota Cyclone Ransacks a Town in a Storied Tale
A Detroit Free Press item relays a humorous exaggerated report of a cyclone that swept through a town. It describes flying nails and destroyed houses, residents tossed about, a canal lifted bodily, and pockets emptied while humorously noting missing rent, a vanished house, and the county treasurer and bank cashiers gone with funds. The tale ends with a playful caution about the wind.
