Santa Ysabel Indians Celebrate Fiesta and Holy Cross Rite
Special correspondence describes a Santa Ysabel fiesta on November 14 as a blended harvest festival with Fourth of July and Thanksgiving elements. Elders recall the once-bustling village, the mission bells still intact, and a ceremony led by Salvador Duro with crosses of wheat carried to the church, while crowds feast and celebrate into the evening amid powder flares and lively gunfire.

Jailbreak by bootless prisoners in a wild jail escape
A chaotic night at a rural jail ends with prisoners shedding all footwear to ease confinement. Boots form a massive outside pyramid while inmates, mostly intoxicated, forage for rations as dawn nears. Roof tiles are torn away in a desperate escape attempt before the door is finally unfastened. By noon most disperses, leaving only distant mission bells.

Quiet Evening Stirred by Primitive Fourth of July Observances
A fragmented narrative recalls a religious procession just before a July 4th celebration. Crosses were laid in the church while ritual micro formulae were recited. Indians then celebrated noisily with red poison circulating through the night. Police and deputies struggled as drinkers grew unruly. An adobe hut with a grass roof served as a makeshift calaboose.

Coal dealer and defiance starch trade charges noted
Fragmentary OCR text mentions a coal dealer, a claim about being the best, and Defiance Starch implying superior quality. It includes a remark about not throwing mud without affecting the speaker, and a reference to price comparisons. The fragmentary nature limits clear facts.
Historic Church Restored at Milton Abbey Woods
In Dorset England a remarkable church in Milton Abbey Woods has been restored after centuries of desecration. Erected in 938 by King Athelstan and dedicated to St Catherine, it was used by monks until the Reformation, later misused as a pigeon-house and cottage. Everard Hambro funded a reverent restoration, completed recently, preserving Saxon Norman and perpendicular features and an inscription on the south door.
