The Sentinel wedding tale and walking lessons mix
A long old article blends a moral on trust in men from Old Daisy Sullivan with a walking lesson by Miss Howard gleaned from a queenly bearing. It then shifts to a tax per head comparison and a Kansas City tale of a widow, a feigned husband, and a $100 pursuit, ending with the couple fleeing to Fort Scott.

National debt progress under Grant administration
The New York World notes the third year of Grant’s term shows a monthly debt reduction of 11 011 250 65 dollars, exceeding last year’s average and near double March 1870’s reduction. It cites total debt decrease of 215 765 663 74 dollars since 1869, leaving 2 484 076 643 05 dollars owed, and compares $2 4 per head to other nations, while disputing claims of one hundred dollars per capita.

Congressional debate and senate action on April 11 1871
The Senate moved to pay Schenck’s salary as minister to England and adopted a Tennessee election resolution as valid. House debated the Deficiency bill, Dawes explained amendments, Cox condemned all deficiency bills, and adjourned unfinished. Sherman urged tax reform to limit burden while funding debt. Blodgett and Goldthwait were tabled. Ku Klux bill discussed. In Washington Strong Stark took oath. Kerr and Holman proposed amendments on cotton seizures and bounty payments. Aged and destitute DC appropriation faced opposition. A New Orleans radical memorial urged stricter Ku Klux legislation. A Ten Brook & Co stove plant fire caused $12,000 loss.
