Winter storms paralize Cedar Rapids and beyond

The text recalls a severe sleighing period with four to six foot snow drifts shutting streets and blocking rail lines. Shovels and effort everywhere, three days of major disruption, plus tales of ice harvests frozen, baths missed, and town life grinding to a halt as trains struggle to move in heavy snow and wind.

Local grocer offers prompt delivery and Nasby lecture talk

The piece notes Rosyx grocer in city delivers quickly and handles telephone orders poorly. It mentions Independent Hosey No. 1 negotiating with humorist Petroleum Nasby for a mid next month lecture "Bricks Without Stray" and predicts a big turnout. The item also promotes textiles and dress goods, invites inspection, and cites a local liquor-law violator Alex Graham fined $100 with sixty days in jail suspended until Wednesday. Electric Bitters praised as a universal tonic with wide demand. The piece ends with railway blockade woes and a crisis report on service and luck.
