A lengthy, partisan review criticizes Democratic and Republican stances on the Philippines and US imperialism, cites Bryan and Hoar Gorman treaty debates, and discusses American liberty, governance, and foreign policy under pressure from Japan. It also covers press criticism of Roosevelt era policies and the political climate in Georgia.
A poem-like reflection on the country mood contrasts with a river origin tale. A boy drafts his mother’s address on paper, sinks a quinine bottle corked with a wine-cap, drifted three miles downstream, and resurfaces three years later near McCalla Ferry as a recovered memory-linked envelope.
Surgeon at Williamsburg Hospital removed a three inch lead nail lodged in the skull of William W Albright after a fall from an elevated structure near the Brooklyn plaza of the Williamsburg Bridge. Albright, a former iron worker, survived multiple prior falls and near drowning incidents, with a history of serious workplace accidents.
A long profile traces Lord de la Warr from his early exile in Australia to immense business ventures in iron ore and coal. It covers his marriage alliances, leadership roles, and a turbulent financial orbit with Hooley, plus his historic Knowle Park ties to Sackville family lineage and the famed gumbell gym apparatus.
A photographer recalls a Roosevelt wilderness boar hunt in the mountains near Washington. The president joined locals for sport, joked with reporters about press presence, and aided a dramatic boar crash while mounting a swift ascent into a hidden pen. The party returned to town with tales of skill and luck.
A Savannah River incident sparks curiosity as a city steamer salutes a white cottage by the marsh. A young woman learns the cottage resident is Miss Mortus, famed for signaling passing ships with a flag. The scene inspires notes and possible fiction about Elba Island.
A trimmed, fragmented passage discusses animal tastes and cravings. It mentions otters, chimpanzees, fruit, trout, five to twelve items, a banyan or pineapple, and ichneumon preferences. The tone resembles a curious natural history note with examples of animal dietary quirks and reactions.
A chaotic newspaper sketch recounts a bear wandering toward Segamore Hill hoping to see the President, with dogs, pitchforks, and vigilant patrols pursuing the creature as observers ponder if the visit hinted at Teddy Roosevelt era market tensions and trust busting, amid garbled medical and policing language.
A fragmentary late 19th or early 20th century critique extols sweets as a sign of wholesome health and youth while contrasting indulgence with restraint. It veers into disjointed remarks about candy, ice cream, tobacco, and moral decline, reflecting polarized views on appetite and social behavior.
A veteran observer sketches a lively scene of Massachusetts politics with Governor Curtis Guild Jr and rivals in the spotlight. Discussion covers Democratic and Republican factions, possible nominees like Henry White and Roosevelt, and the impact of endorsements on state sentiment.
