This uncommon Midwestern title has news of the day with many advertisements. The front page has an article headed: "APPALLING SEA DISASTER" "Over 700 Persons Drowned in a Sinking Ship" 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 4 pages, nice condition.
