Handkerchief match ends in a jibe at Ladismann
A Boston Transcript anecdote tells how Lachsmann recovered a dropped handkerchief from an unknown woman who turns out to be Mrs. L. in disguise. She chides him for vanity before recounting social escort services offered to women by a local company. The item transitions to medical debates in New York Times about doctors and students dying from septic poisoning and ends with Lydiam Maria Child’s reflections and California Chinese immigration ballots.
