Fragmented snippets on taste, pets, and a royal tale
A jumbled column recites varied clippings about color theory from The Wisdom of Solomon, a Haymarket theatre owner and his cat with canaries, Ruskin on curiosity and sympathy, a Bombay prince’s romantic rise, a theatre dialogue, and a Philadelphia anecdote about President Harrison. The miscellany blends quotations, humorous vignettes, and brief city notes from multiple papers.
