Fourteen Years of Pain Solved by Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey
Mrs. G H La Beaumme of De Soto Missouri extols Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey for fourteen winters of grip and a constant tired feeling. After skepticism, two bottles given as a Christmas gift improved her health and led to four more bottles. She recommends it to friends, claims sustained vigor, and notes its malt distillation, purity, and palatability. The ad invites readers to ask for genuine product, watch the Old Chemist trademark, and offers a free medical booklet from Dr R Currin.

North Side Dock Project Approved As North River Landing
The city council ordered the board of public works to immediately build a fifty foot floating dock on the Black River’s North side for North side boat owners. Costing up to $90, the dock will mirror the State street foot landing and be sited for maximum use, with construction to begin soon. La Crosse motorboat club members presented a petition backing the project, noting many North side taxpayers need a suitable landing. Meanwhile, high school aspirants, in scant attire, train on the running track to boost their chances of an interstate championship for La Crosse, with a preliminary meet slated at the fair grounds next Saturday and trophies shown May 10 at Parker’s window. The Winona baseball clash spotlights Captain Novak’s squad facing a strong home crowd. Dahlgren and Walker return from illness for the game, with M. Novak pitching and Frank Novak catching.

Landmark hotel to rise over Chicago after demolished landmarks
Chicago May 9 landmarks that stood for 35 years at La Salle and Madison streets are to be demolished for a new hotel described as one of the world's largest hostelries. The 21 story structure will stretch 178 feet on La Salle and 126% on Madison, weigh 7,060 tons of steel, use 4,500,000 bricks, and house 45 miles of electric lines and 20 miles of telephone wires. The Standard Oil Company owns property on Crooked Street among other Chicago streets with similarly evocative names. The diary entry notes 1873 and 1907 panics tied to Western optimism and the Board of Trade debate over whether to close markets, urging openness to aid producers.
