A Kansas City Times report recalls a violent incident aboard a western-bound Missouri Pacific line near Pleasant Hill. A.G. Frazier, traveling to Lawrence, slashed his throat with a pocket knife after boarding the wrong train, bleeding heavily before fellow passengers intervened and he was removed to the city hospital. He is described as mentally unsettled with a family in Lawrence. The piece also cites an Illinois Supreme Court ruling on lay-over tickets, affirming that such tickets bind riders beyond 30 days and that voided tickets carry consequences if rights are not exercised timely.

Odd Tales and Crimes from Fading Clippings
Disjointed notes recount a running gamut of curiosities and crimes. A conductor and Perkins debate a marked tempo in a noisy room. A San Francisco murder leads with a gruesome eel-skin weapon. Accounts of a giant monster snake, Creek murders, and Indians’ protection push to government oversight. Social vignettes from Long Branch lampoon etiquette and a Mississippi rescuer tales contrast with a dentist’s warning on ice cream and sodas.
