Strange Zouave story and other frontier oddities
A long, rambling feature covers a peculiar French Zouave corps with two types, including private privateers and animal trained battalion helpers. It recounts boxes marked fragile, a box of grapes, apes, baboons, cats, and monkeys aiding a shipping caper. It weaves in assorted local crime tales, a poker robbery restitution anecdote, and notes on European war’s impact on trade, railroads, and blood reserve power.
