Telegraphic trains send messages midjourney at 85 miles an hour
Epison demonstrates a telegraph link between cars 26 to 80 miles apart while trains run at high speed. A battery on the car connected to the rail sends messages, proving the trick possible. The piece comments on rapid world change and promotes weekly news delivery for subscribers. It also covers local county supervisor politics and advertising norms, plus a missing 85-year-old man, a bakery ad, and a meat market price list.

At the National Butter Cheese and Egg Association meeting in Chicago and the Iowa group in Oskaloosa, officials warned that vast quantities of counterfeit dairy products flood markets and deceive retailers and consumers.
