A Tribune report warns that a pest hole a half block from city hall violates sanitation laws and risks residents leaving Camfield court. City health measures and police enforcement were instructed after repeated complaints and ongoing odors.

It adds a cautionary line about sensational stories.
Ed Howe muses on gossip and guilt, noting that nuisance rarely ends on its own and prayer may anger the wrongdoer. He observes how conversations reveal faults, the urge to expose others, and the gap between love and work. He also laments a distressed mother carrying a sick child to a doctor.
A Chicago businessman offers one million dollars to be distributed in thousand dollar grants to fund a farming expert in every U S county.
