Across Osage City and Lyndon Kansas a devastating cyclone wrecked buildings and killed residents with many injured. Other reports detail fires in Worcester and Clinton, a lynching in Arkansas, and a Paris note on Bismarck, plus Secretary Carlisle announcing free gold in the treasury.
Foreign ships enter the harbor and greet American forces with gun salutes as Admiral Gherardi welcomes the Arethuse and others. Washington notes the White House opening to visitors, with future public appointments and travel plans for Secretary Herbert. The schedule includes a New York naval review reception, land parade, and ministerial introductions aboard the Dolphin.
A chaotic scene unfolds in New Bern when a sheriff and posse attempt to evict James City tenants. Doors are locked, 1200 local residents gather in silence, and only the post office and one church remain open as warnings of violence loom. The episode sparks a pending move and a crowd summoned to the courthouse tomorrow.
The State Chronicle lists advertising rates for a square and columns, along with reading notices, then moves through a patchwork of items including a legal quip about a magistrate and a thief, medicinal ads for Dr Pierce's Pellets, Bishop Lyman's appointments in April and May, a note on the first wooden bridge, and promotions for North State Music Company and Columbia bicycles with prices and terms.
A fragmented notice lists prices for household ammonia fruit and snack items, potted meats, evaporated fruits, honey, and confections. It also includes an administrator’s notice for the estate of Mrs. A A Perry, requiring creditors to present claims by April 1 and debtors to pay promptly, naming Andrew B Me as administrator.
