A Pittsburg Gazette poem contrasts city winters with rural cheer. It laments slush and rheumatics in the city while villages enjoy snow and hearty foods. The piece lampoons urban life and seasonal hardships.
Val Maynard and Howard Blake duel over a lease and a fortune in a desert gold claim. Blake pockets eighty thousand dollars and leaves Maynard to starve, then returns with a freight of ore. Maynard frees the team water and refuses revenge, giving Blake a final, wary truce as dawn rises over Death Valley.
Two good natured Frenchmen quarreled and agreed to a duel. On the way to the spot the challenger tripped, fell, and injured his nose slightly. His second aided him, and the pair declared their honor vindicated as they offered a hand.
