...Nigger, the little yapping terrier bitch of Edward of Wales, † whined disconsolately by day, all last week, and howled eerily by night. Servants at H. R. H.'s bachelor quarters in York House, London, could not quite shake off uneasy qualms aroused by the dog's palpable terror and grief. Suppose, just suppose the little bitch knew, with feminine intuition, that her master would never return. Absurd-yet Master Wales had set out, last week, to journey a long way away-to South & East Africa...
Joseph Conrad's Nigger of the Narcissus tells of such a tempest as stirred the demons of the Pacific into an oceanic Walpurgisnacht off Central America last week.

Then Frank Collins brought the charge that has lynched many a nigger. The Collins woman, old Maude, backed him up. They said Ben Bess had raped...
...milksop is bristling, ruddy, white-haired Whitney Warren, smart and picturesque Manhattan architect, who designed the new Library, and received from Cardinal Mercier the virile Latin inscription. Last week Mr. Warren was in Belgium bristling against the would-be emasculators. "The nigger in the woodpile," said he scathingly, "has evidently been my dear friend, Nicholas Murray Butler, President of the Carnegie Foundation for International Peace. . . . The people of Belgium want the inscription and I might add, a very large majority of the American contributors do also. ... In America the lives of so-called free American citizens are made unbearable...
