Fashion, finance, and folly in a late 19th century column
A sprawling column from April 4 1895 touches on fashion with Pharaoh red shade, currency gossip about Joan L. and a judge in Pittsburg allowing a baby to be held for board, and social notes. It laments street revenue, peddler frauds, and immigration trends while criticizing saloon licenses and theatre etiquette and closing with a tribute to a wealthy editor who died rich at 81.
