Earth's oldest race dying out in Andaman Islands

A long feature describes the Andamanese, an isolated primitive people on the Andaman Islands, noting their nakedness, leaf clothing, short stature, lack of agriculture, and near linguistic isolation.

Fragmentary Lines Reflect On Ideals And Courage

A damaged scribble contemplates counting, ideals fading, and doubt in polls. It hints at a stubborn fighter who defends a tree of bad fighters, unsure of attack unless success feels certain. The text reads as a fragmented rumination on perseverance and risk.

Coffin Innocent Be Back Monday

Coffin innocent, be back Monday. Coffin was received here yesterday from 1. Cofiz, the railroad contractor, arrested here in the early part of the week and taken back to Paducah Kentucky to answer the charge of passing worthless checks under false pretenses, that he had established his innocence and would leave at once for San Antonio. He offered to wager police officials a large sum that he would clear his name and return by Monday. The Kentucky sheriff ran short of funds and Coffin supplied him with a $250 check on a local bank. Coffin insisted his wife accompany him. The description of the man wanted for passing the worthless check aided the arrest. Mr. Goffin is a railroad contractor and was in San Antonio May 22, the day the stranger passed the check. The ad ends with local printer filler and lumber supplier promo content.
