A jumble of poems and passages recounts borrowed sweetness and longing, interspersed with remarks about Grant and Sherman, a note on porcelain making, and the rise of women in china painting. The text blends lyric fragments with historical commentary and industry trivia.
A vivid, period style sketch contrasts hardy cowboys with frontier hospitality and rough justice. The piece, quoting Theodore Rorstedt in The Century, describes their appearance, habits, and demeanor, then shifts to Washington era life, domestic routines of a plantation owner, and references to ironwork and Centennial era industry, ending with a New York Sun note on fabrics and a snippet from a cartoon caption.
A New York City carriage maker notes cutters are out of fashion due to lighter snows, busy rail tracks, and unsafe streets. He keeps a few in the loft for hire but cannot predict when a wculder was sold, as sleighing becomes impractical on modern urban streets.
The article surveys Rome’s Sunday behavior, modernization, and influx of foreigners and military presence. It contrasts traditional churchgoing with public disorder and leisure, notes street life and new transport, and highlights the Roman Cowboy and fashion among women. The piece, from the Baltimore Sun, blends travelogue with cultural critique.
