Vaudeville notes and risky reports from the era
A garbled dispatch lists a string of blunt incidents across the United States and abroad. It mentions the First Nations Bank of friendly West Virginia, police killings of dogs in New York, a missing man with a large sum in Connecticut, fatal accidents in several states, a California governor’s death, a Chinese steamship sinking, cholera in Russia, and various crimes and disasters. The items read like rapid-fire briefs from a late 19th or early 20th century wire service bulletin.

Baseball in the Days of Anson and Spalding
Kansas City player E. J. Roe recalls 1870s baseball with Capt. Anson Spalding Wright and Comlakey. He recalls underhand pitching past bunting and small-town salaries, the fierce local rivalries, and the love of the game despite low pay. He contrasts old era excitement with modern baseball and laments changes in club spirit and strategy.
