In this wartime reminiscence Jacques Brulefort, a skilled French worker, outwits a Prussian commandant and sabotages a stalled siege cannon. He guides the crew to free the machine as it crashes down a hill, dies heroically, and is mourned as a patriot.
A lyrical scene from Mildred McNeal in Youth's Companion describes sunlit journeys through snow and pine, a cheerful procession of autumn colors moving southward. The verse portrays goldenrod guards and a smiling train of leaves and light sweeping across a valley, hill, and plain as year wanes.
A narrator recalls a December 17, 1870 incident on a steep village road near a hedge scarred by war. Prussian officers enter Jacques Brulefort’s workshop seeking a repair, Jacques flees, and is pursued with brutal force, leaving his fate unknown as locals await the outcome.
Mr Kuhe in his Musical Recollections recounts Paganini at a dinner where he arrived without his violin, quipping that his violin never dines out. Goethe hailed as Europe’s handsomest man, tall yet well proportioned, with Roman features and pale hair. The piece also notes animal diets, especially bears and monkeys, detailing omnivorous habits and dental traits. It ends with remarks on miners and financiers, quoting William J Bryan on money and power.
