It trails into miscellaneous observations about politicians, beer versus whiskey, and social mores.
An odd miscellany notes a Supreme Court remark on passenger traffic, a mor ticians convention in Erie with a song about the dead, and a joke about a man fined in Zion City. It mentions a woolen factory worker who became a dentist then moved to Grand Rapids, and a Michigan Soldiers Home commandant who led the G A R and Loyal Legion.

A compact list of historical anniversaries notes events from 1815 Battle of Quatre Bras to 1915, including indecisive outcomes between British and French forces, Haitian expulsion orders, a grand duke’s death, a princess tomb find in Egypt, a Cape Colony shipwreck with loss of lives, and the assassination of a Finnish governor general with German mobilization efforts.
