A miscellany notes legal and scientific curiosities. It cites Sweden restricting capital punishment to confessions, a 5 000 pound print run for Walter Rothschild's Extinct Birds on imperishable paper, and George Gould planning a two million pound limestone Fifth Avenue house. Also reports on marriage months varied by country, a giant telescope purchase, a blind pastor in Wales baptizing in Braille, a remarkable water clock, London's mud economy, and local police dog speed tests. Includes a long item about elderly woman Honor Rye bedbound sixty five years.
