Dual Lives and a Western Railroad Tale of Love and Deceit
A Kansas and Missouri tale recounts a well known railroad man who led a double life with a Chicago wife. His widow inherits wealth through careful transfers and a will, while a separate Chicago house and Kansas real estate pass to the mistress. A Western senator shares old settler pride, and locomotive mileage figures contrast engine types with thousands of miles per year for passenger and freight power.

Shoes and Shoestrings in a Nighttime Plunder on the Rail
A chaotic tale from Cincinnati to Pittsburgh follows a Pullman porter as a band of disguises seize a night journey. They strip passengers of footwear in a bold, anonymous raid, leaving a trail of soiled hosiery and a peculiar escape toward St Louis, while a dog named Mary and a wagging pup enter a separate comic vignette. European nobles seek American brides with fortunes, offering 11,000 to 81,000,000 in dowry terms.
