This uncommon Midwestern title has news of the day with many advertisements. Page 2 has an article headed: "Doings In The Gold Diggings" and more. (see)
Page 5 has: "THE TORNADO" "Strange Peculiarities of the Cyclone at St. Charles, Mo." and more. (see)
This issue is not fragile as newsprint back then was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Complete in 8 pages, minor irregularity along the spine, very nice condition.
