Real Estate Expansion Near St Louis Across County
Real estate activity in St Louis county remains strong through mid 1893, with most buying outside city limits due to lower taxes. Substantial railroad development supports growth and potential annexation of a 100000 population district to the city, while rail travel to the World’s Fair stays heavy and excursion tickets attract tourists. Baseball notes discuss the Browns, and a court case on quart measurements in fruit boxes spurs debate on stamped measures.

Puff Adder Capers Among People and Animals in South America
A colonial-era account notes puff adders in South America as highly dangerous and common in towns with gardens. It recounts incidents including a 12-year-old boy dying after a bite, a gentleman risking a snake in his dining room, and pets and dogs falling to adders. It highlights their sluggishness, habitat in hedges, and a Port Elizabeth tale of a puff adder in a bed. The piece ends noting snakes bite only when provoked and a sleeping woman survived due to the intruder's confined position.
