Four Funny Crank Pranks Across Cincinnati Scene
A long humorous column recounts two odd encounters with a well-dressed stranger in Vine Street shops. He buys a pantaloons button and an aquarium, then a custom gun bore joke at a Cincinnati gunsmith. The piece notes a streetcar, a hardware dealer, and a mysterious, gaudy visitor possibly from Cincinnati, plus a gunsmith anecdote and other quirky vignettes.
