Horace Fletcher advocates a new living system and the art of Fletcherizing. He eats one meal daily, drinks no meat, tobacco, or alcohol, and refuses to worry. He stays busy and calm, believing two things are beyond concern: what you can help and what you cannot.
A detailed account of Morris Haas, a Jewish saloon owner, who shot Francis J. Heney and later died by suicide. The piece traces Haas’s role as a provisional juror in the Parkside Ruef bribery case, including the juror selection box of 200 men, Haas’s background, and Heney’s suspicions of other convicts among jurors. It notes Anixter’s prior term in the house of correction and a call from Colin, a Jewish tailor, about another ex convict on the Ruef jury.
A Kansas City figure in Ohio sends a preachment urging towns to rise on the strength of their people not natural advantages. The piece argues cities become centers through initiative, citing Cleveland, Boston, Chicago, and New York as examples driven by individuals. It also notes Cincinnati’s historical role and ends with a Burns detective recounting Haas’s criminal history and his dramatic downfall.
Rev Dr Harvey Graeme Furbay was reordained by the Presbyterian church in New York after a decade barred from the pulpit for drunkenness. Once a Philadelphia pastor with an $8,000 salary, he fell to a common rampage. Restoration owed much to ex-Supt Hadley of McAuley Water Street Mission.
The Starrom fronting water issues backs Kansas City ownership over Unusnal Water Works and later a franchise, recalls a $7,500 note find by a receiver, and promotes a Kay River channel project. It now urges the city to rely on Kansas City for water, while criticizing state public health oversight and past political battles. The paper’s editorials trace its evolving stance and sharp critique of opponents.
