Hit or Miss Column by C. H. Leetlefellow
A miscellany of quips and sayings on crime, social norms, and public figures. The column quotes Lucy Page Gaston and Arthur Burrage Farwell, notes public reactions to a red light district arrest, and mixes observations on Turks Greeks and American fruit sellers with brief maxims and witticisms. It ends with a dramatic plea about marriage and a prohibitive threat.
