Extractions: Donderdag 29 januari . In Amsterdam breekt een staking uit van spoorwegarbeiders op het rangeerterrein de Rietlanden. Het is een reaktie op het ontslag van een rangeerder die weigert om 'onderkruiperswerk' (loswerkzaamheden in de haven) te verrichten voor Blauwhoedveem, waar het personeel al een tijdje in staking is. De spoorwegdirecties zien zich voor het eerst in de geschiedenis gedwongen om met de vakbonden onderhandelingen te beginnen, maar door onhandig manoeuvreren van de vakbonden mondt de staking uit in een grote mislukking.

Extractions: The Good Calamity Jane Calamity Jane was a show woman and a teller of tall stories. Martha Jane Canary was born around 1852 in Princeton Missouri. She became an orphan when she was 15. she moved to Wyoming when she was 17 and lived among the rough railroad gangs around Cheyenne. She lived in mining camps in the west, and became known as a sharpshooter and horsewoman. She was not conventional and dressed in men's clothing claiming she was equal to any man. she made threats that calamity would befall any man who offended her, and hence acquired her nickname. In 1875, when she was 23, she joined an expedition into the Black Hills of Dakota, the expedition was led by General George Crook against the Sioux and Northern Cheyenne. She was the only woman among 1300 men. She rode the pony express for the U.S. Cavalry which carried mail between Custer, Montana and Deadwood, South Dakota. Later she toured the west in a Wild West Show as a sharpshooter. In 1891 aged 39 she married a man by the name of Clinton Burke. she made claims that she had married several times before including Wild Bill Hickok but no record of this exists. Calamity Jane was an alcoholic which led to her ruin and in later life she was reduced to working part time in side shows, She also sold her memoirs for extra much needed cash. she was broke when she died.

Extractions: Gli avvistamenti www.clarabella.com Posta del cuore I manoscritti ... Appuntamenti Amato ragazzo , di Henry James e Lettere alla figlia di Calamity Jane Tra le cose che amo leggere di piu' ci sono gli epistolari. Praticamente e' quasi come ascoltare le telefonate degli altri, con il vantaggio che si sentono tutte le voci e che si puo' tornare indietro a controllare se ci siamo dimenticati qualche cosa. Questa settimana mi sono capitati sotto mano due libri di lettere, il primo di Henry James (1843 - 1916) scrittore americano che intraprende una corrispondenza che dura 16 anni, quasi fino alla fine della sua vita, con lo scultore norvegese Hendrik Christian Anderesen, giovane e bello; l'altro, purtroppo al momento fuori catalogo, di Calamity Jane (1852 - 1903), figura leggendaria del selvaggio west americano, che dal suo venticinquesimo anno di eta' in poi, scrive a sua figlia, data in adozione, ventisette lettere che non spedira' mai, per non turbare la vita tranquilla di una bambina che non sapeva di essere stata adottata. Forse non esistono due figure piu' lontane tra loro, se non per due semplici circostanze: quella di essere due americani quasi coetanei e quella di aver scritto delle lettere. Verso la fine dell'epistolario, leggiamo che Andersen insiste per coinvolgere James in un progetto che lui chiamava il Centro Mondiale. Il Centro Mondiale voleva essere una citta' da creare dal nulla, che diventasse il ritrovo di tutto cio' che di bello, culturale e artistico accadesse nel mondo! E' a questo punto che James perde veramente la pazienza e gli confessa che trova orribili le "forme pretenziose di parole quali Mondo". Verso la fine dell'epistolario, quando James soffriva sia per motivi fisici sia per lo scoppiare della prima guerra mondiale, si percepisce la delusione intellettuale dell'anziano scrittore.

Extractions: Calamity Jane "Calamity Jane" was born Martha Jane Canary in Princeton, Missouri probably on May 1,1852. The legends as well as her own inventions confuse the facts of her rough and raucous life. Jane was a hard drinking woman who wore men's clothing, used bawdy language, chewed tobacco, and was proficient with guns. The extent of her lawless behavior was limited to disorderly conduct, drunkenness and prostitution. When she was quite young, her family moved westward on a wagon train. Her mother died en route and her father died in Salt Lake City. Forced to be on her own, this muscular, big-boned girl wandered the West, working as a cook, a dance-hall girl, and a prostitute, doing whatever necessary to earn a living. In 1875, she worked at E. Coffey's "hog farm" near Fort Laramie. Deadwood, 1876 In the spring of 1876 she ended up in booming mining town Deadwood, South Dakota where she got a job as a bullwhacker, hauling goods and machinery to the outlying camps. Deadwood is where she met Wild Bill Hickok and supposedly had a torrid love affair with him. The extent of their relationship is debated. Some theories include a marriage in September 1870 and a child, Jean Hickok McCormick, born September 25, 1873, given up for adoption. On August 3, 1876, Wild Bill Hickok was playing poker at Mann's Saloon #10 when Jack McCall slipped up behind him and shot him through the brain. Calamity Jane liked to say she tracked down the killer and had him arrested. The next day, McCall faced a miners court and pleaded self-defense. They declared him not guilty. Later, he was arrested for the Hickok killing by a Federal Marshal and brought to trial in a real court. McCall was found guilty. On March 1, 1877, McCall was hanged. He was buried with the rope still around his neck.
