Boston North End Park Project Adds Bathhouses and Promenade

Our Boston Letter describes the North End park near Commercial Street with bathhouses on either side of a broad beach and a long promenade. It notes the early construction, civic improvements, and the historic finds from Copp’s Hill burying ground including old graves and colonial coins. It also covers kite photography attempts, the new Yerkes telescope lenses, rising highway crime, demolition of the old New England railroad station, and city theater news.

Fashionable Skirts and Pockets Rule in Dress Trim

Rally Endorses Chicago Platform For Silver Action

Young men filled Huntington hall last night as the Non Partisan Silver league held its first rally for Bryan and Sewall and free coinage of silver under the Chicago platform. Miss Sheldon spoke on money, prices, and the need for a silver standard, arguing that abundant money boosts wages and that gold alone harms labor. The audience cheered as Bryan was hailed, and Norman Cameron, president of the State Silver League, closed the gathering with a brief address and cheers.
