Ramen the elephant under knife at Foropdughs Menagerie
A huge elephant named Ramen underwent a painful surgical operation at Chicago Medical College on Wednesday. Dr Moya, assisted by Mr Withers, removed nearly forty pounds of flesh from the forelegs and feet after weeks of inflammation. Red hot irons were used to cauterize the wounds, causing screams and a terrifying scene for onlookers at the menagerie.

Bennet and the Herald Rise From Basement Start to Major Paper
A fragment recounts James Gordon Bennett and the New York Herald founding in 1835 at No 20 Wall Street. It traces initial costs, early circulation, a great fire, relocation to Broadway, and Bennett’s aggressive, fearless editorial stance shaping a national press. Bennett’s ambitions grew as the paper expanded to tens of thousands, while his approach embraced sensational topics, rapid reporting, and bold enterprise. The piece credits Bennett with expanding the Herald and opening the press to wider American influence, despite critics.
