Mysterious Wonderpoon Amid Parliamentary Rumor
A fragment from the Morning Post shows ten large letters forming a cryptic phrase wonderpoon 240 tum full wadden tun 2d turn fol dumphy with satirical speculation about its meaning.

Newell Beats Clasper In Lengthy Thames Rowing Contest
In a hard fought Thames race Newell overtook Clasper after the halfway mark and extended his lead to about fifty yards at the finish. Newell finished in 29 minutes, with Clasper a half minute behind. The London boatman showed precise, steady strokes while Clasper lurched off course. The crowds remained silent as the outcome was decided amid wagers and disappointment. A stray note reports a young otter killed near the public steps at Hove by two bathing boys, a rare occurrence noted by Plymouth Times.
