SLOCUM RETURNS AFTER WELD CHICAGO o TwWo HTS-= EDITOR'S NOTE: What was the world doing in the pleas- ant days when today’s adults were youths? Forty years ago “Red” Coolidge was a student at Amherst college. A chubby- faced office boy was making good in Oregon. That was Her- bert Hoover, Here is the Ameri- can sceno in those interesting times recreated from the tran- sient recordings of daily hap- penings in a series of stories, By ALEXANDER GEORGE (A. P. Feature Writer) Back in the days when no buffet of standing was without its bottlc of bitters and nobody dreamed of parting with his appendix, the spor and adventure loving public ha its thrills, although there were n Lindberghs or Babe Ruths to idol- ize. One of the big events of June, 1889, was the arrival at Staten Is- land of Capt. Joshua Slocum in his three-ton sailing vessel after an adventurous voyage of mnina vears. The captain, his wife and two children had left Parangila Drazil, June 24, 1880, and had traveled more than 7,000 miles. Long bcfore Christy Mathewson had become the hero of the dia- mond, baseball fans went to the old St. George field in New York to watch the Giants battle the ‘White Stockings of Chicago. They cheered the great Timothy Keefe, “king of the curvers” as he held the fierce Chicago batsmen to two hits and gave old “Cap” Anson a chill. The “flaming college youth” of the period gave vent to its high spirits in rather savage hazin The son of a wealthy liquor dealer who was a freshman at an eastern technical institute, offended the sophomores by wearing a high hat and patent leather shoes and bv associating with the seniors. The “sophs” abducted him in a hack gave him drugged lemonade an- cocted his body with Paris Green sea WRITING DESK. " ol HoRIDA HOTEL Huge razor strops of Imporied Russian leather were used by father to tune up his old straight blade and to chastise errant sons. The parental explanation that “this whipping hur me more than it does you" was greatly in vogue at that time. The press was marvciing at pho- nographic toys. Birds that warbled s in their native forests, cats that wrred and and horses that eighed were among the wpplications of the wonderful sound toring instrument.” Colonel Gou- and took the French Academy of science by storm with his phonc- raphic machine Florida with an old climate and ew palatial hotels, was enticing orthern millicnaires to spend the vinter under its palm trees. In the rooms of ane of these “hotel pal- aces” were “trick” writing desks, the lower parts of which concealed luxurious wash stands. The Chi- cago Tribune reported that “the majority of Chicago's 40 dudes were in attendance at the divorce trial of Mrs. Leslie Carter.” Henry Matthieu, who had fought with Napoleon at Leipsic and at Waterioo, died at the age of 101 in a squalid tenement on West Fifty-third street, New York. The old Frenchman had been a mem- ber of the 9th Hussars #nd was in- tensely proud of his service with the great Corsican. At Jamestown, N. Y. the Rev Henry Frank of the Independent Congregational Church created o sensation by publicly declaring that the Pible was not an inspired book and in consequence, was not infal-| lible. The famous controversy regard- ing the respeetive bravery of Gen. Benjamin Butler and Admiral Por- er was raging, and Washington lispatches reported & lack of har- nony in Virginia between the Ma- wone and anti-Mahone Republi- ans, Alonzo Stagg, now athletic “latest | di- | cector at the University of Chicago l“ \ NEWSPAPERIS | SUED FOR B'G AMOUNT LIBEL : Andrew M.
