Irish World Exposition and City News Spark
A long review notes the Irish World publishing a twenty page periodical with a complete 1776 to present history. It reports social unrest with tramps invading Davenport and Moline and potential unrest in Cedar Rapids. A local family’s privy loss during the Centennial storm is humorously tied to Sinclair's copper shop damage. An advertisement touts Arabam Liver Pills from Pope & Dillon druggists.
