– Artists and cartoonists include Chip, Michael Angelo Woolf, Stephen Van Schaick, A. S. Daggy, and others.
– Two page center spread art by Charles Dana Gibson, Georgius and Pater McGlynn Trying a new poison on Labor. This is an odd artwork in that it surely refers to Henry George and Father McGlynn, both pro-labor and in support of labor unions.
– Current topics include Mr. Howells and his fallacies, Tolstoi, literary criticism, the Ute Indians and a disputed horse race (Life sides with the Utes) and more.
– To Katydids, a poem by Idle Idyller.
– Recent Newport events go very far to show that a man need not have a savory reputation so long as he is a Duke.
– How they spent Labor Day.
– PUNCH is to be printed on foolscap hereafter, for reasons that at once suggest themselves. (Yes, 2Neat is laughing)
– Small Packer’s Tar soap ad with three little kids.
– Quarter page Red Fern Ladies’ Tailor ad.
– Small ad for Fred Brown’s ginger.
– Quarter page loud ad for Digestylin, a cure all.
– Gorgeous half page Pears’ soap ad with small child bathing in large shell, A Specialty for Infants, no artist name.
– And more.
