A dated ad notes Prothe Qhitdbe and Briand Qvaire tablets claimed to cure coughs colds and piles with a boastful price mention. It lists a dissatisfied patient and stresses a ready sale through local dental and barber shops, including G. Ac Knoll Glenwood House Barber Shop.
The Glenwood field hosted two games against the Omaha Maroons, Friday’s close 4 to 2 loss after an early lead, and a decisive 11 to 5 defeat in the second game. Wilkins, Wilkins, Holmer, Driscoll and Kennedy starred for Omaha while the Maroons pitchers shut down Glenwood’s offense after the sixth. Poor crowds and financial strain threaten future park usage, with football likely ending Glenwood’s season. Yale Coffee advertised by Gunavalley Bros. closes the item.
An advertisement touts Yale Coffee as the preferred choice, claiming it pleases 75 percent more people than other brands and offers rich, smooth, delicious flavor. The ad invites readers to Gunson & Co to the North Side Restaurant bakery and mentions a sale of a shellar and power item in Marseilles, with terms $150 or trade for horses, via Davis & Anprisdy in Pacific Junction, Iowa.
The article chronicles the famed revivalist Jesse, known across the United States, speaking in Malvern where crowds paused to hear singing and preaching. It notes his travel from Pacific to Atlantic, his entertaining manner, and the financial hardships of itinerant work, alongside local ads for goods, a bicycle sale, and job notices.
A special Prohibition train will carry presidential and vice presidential candidates along the C. B. & Q. B.R. route stopping in Oreston Red Oak and Omaha. Red Oak hosts an afternoon appearance if weather permits hearing renowned orators including John Ty Woolley. Also listed is a Glenwood real estate sale and an advertisement for Banner Salve by S. B. Lanois.
A fragmented 19th century notice set describes J M Garrettaon of San Antonio Tex suffering asthma for years and being cured by Dr King's New Discovery. It also mentions warnings about kidney and Bright's disease, tobacco and tobacco products, a watch left near the post office, a Henderson seduction case ending in marriage, a local shoe sale, a Shiloh's Consumption Cure promotion, and a barber shop pole for sale. The piece mixes medical ads, criminal notes, and local business notices with sparse courtroom reporting.
