The Effeminate Man And The Decadent Folly
A lengthy screed condemns effeminacy as a corrupting force in society. It portrays effeminate men as deceitful and contemptible, praising rugged toughness while lampooning feminine traits. The piece then shifts to brief news tidbits, including escapes, a leprosy misadventure, Congress timing, a fall caused by serenade revelry, a lethal bag weapon incident, an ancient preserved apple, a Boston pickle business success, and roadway neglect near Shober's mill with potential township liability.

Tobacco Market Reports Active Week Sales In Lancaster Area
The local tobacco market was unusually active with finished stripping and many sales completed. Buyers in the area acquired acres from multiple sellers at varied prices, including Lehman, Schenk, Weidner, Majer, Roth, Buncer, Buch, Gable, and others. Lancaster County's crop is estimated at about 40,000 cases with 15,000 already contracted, but much remains to be sold.
