The Express. Currency and oddities from across the land
A scattered column of quips and tidbits on money, fashion, politics, and misc trends. It notes a Chicago doctor called King of Pain dead, jokes about a glass of hot water, a Green Bay Bible used as a weapon, and various humorous asides about legislatures, fashion, and public life. It mentions Gen Hood in Washington, Anna Dickinson, Erie breakmen, and Swiss snow, plus several odd anecdotes about prices and devices. The tone is satirical and dated, reflecting a miscellany of current affairs and social quirks.
