In Harrodsburg a jury acquitted Ed Collins after a wartime theft case. Judge J C Winkliffe presided with Phil Thompson Jr. prosecuting and Col T C Bell for the defense.

A New York World profile portrays Franz Liszt as a youth of wild adventures and romantic entanglements. It details elopements with Countess d Avault and daughters who married notable figures, plus affairs with two married women, a Russian and a German princess.

The piece condemns Liszt as spoiled by ignorance and pride, noting he was inside the sanctuary only in fame, not in character.
