Parallel judgment for Jim Younger and Charles Turner

A Kansas City World page juxtaposes Jim Younger’s penitentiary life with Charles Turner of St. Louis, contrasting a paroled bandit who kept his word with a bribery-tainted streetcar magnate who betrayed allies. The piece questions who deserves contempt and paints Turner as a lavish criminal and Younger as honorable despite crime.

Weep for the Bachelor and the Surplus of Men

The piece argues bachelors are the ones to pity due to skewed sex ratios. It cites census figures showing 6,726,779 bachelors vs 4,195,446 spinsters, then notes one and three fifths men per woman, implying men face a scarce marriage market while women gain bargaining power. It parodies figures, mentions Carnegie, Hanna, and various political signals, and mocks Prohibition era figures and events in a satirical tone.

Vague street and building listings across King County area

A collage of place names and addresses appears with references to streets, avenues, halls, stations, schools, and corners. The text lists sites such as 2012 East Madison, 2304 Eastlake, Queen Anne stations, and various wards and precincts, suggesting a historical city directory or polling district map. The jumble includes several hall and school mentions, corners, and neighborhood landmarks without a clear narrative.
