Brakeman Admired For Odd Acts On The Cars
A Boston Transcript piece praises a brakeman as a gentleman of leisure who helps passengers. He locks stove doors to save fire, dims lights to protect eyes, and assists young ladies off the cars. It jokes that statisticians estimate many passions amid trains and notes only sons of millionaires can afford such a role.

Prairie dogs dig underground wells for water
A frontiersman argues prairie dogs drill their own wells on the prairie with concealed entrances. He cites a 200 foot deep well with a circular descent to water showing their grit in drought. Also a Cecil Democrat anecdote depicts a talking point about a traveler asking the Denton road and a witty reply about poor land and water.
