Odds and Ends from the London and New York Press
A collage of short notices notes Blondin in London and Ellsler alive, Europe paying millions for leeches, a Tennessee reporter swayed by beauty, and war drawing to a close. Reports include 4000 servant girls unemployed in Chicago, vast European war budgets, a sheriff selling a Bible to satisfy a judgment, libel claims, a new king with a middle-parted hair, a Friends college near Indianola Iowa, and diverse curiosities from authors, editors, and cities.
