German Emperor gifts allegorical picture to the Czar
The London Times Vienna correspondent reports a German Emperor sent an allegorical painting to the Czar. It depicts Europe’s civilized state oppressed by the yellow race and has drawn attention as a possible nudge toward a united European response to China. The Presse questions motives, while the Neue Freie Presse notes Germany’s stance against England and in support of Russia in Asia. The Times Vienna notes Berlin values Russian confidence over English friendship as UK ministries change.

The Messenger Boy Adopts the Bicycle Era
A Western Union Telegraph staff in Philadelphia adopts bicycles, cutting delivery time to about one third. Ten walkers in West Philadelphia delivering about twenty miles daily switch to riders who deliver 27 to 30 messages, earning $1 to $1.50 daily while the company funds the wheel. The arrangement places the wheel in the boy’s hands after repayment, boosting efficiency and reducing fatigue.
