How Buffalo's notoriety got
so messed up during the time of the 1901 World's Fair. It was like Satan
was against them. An elephant got electrocuted, Geronimo did
performance art that was weird, people were jumping
over Niagara in barrels - sometimes surviving, sometimes not, sometimes
bringing their dog (which thankfully did survive). McKinley was
assassinated, and the best was however a love story - Alice and Tony
Woeckener married. He had to get her away from the
man the courts said legally owned her (seriously), achieve various
escapes, flee death and imminent destruction. But 'Chiquita the Doll
Queen' wed her musician and they, at least, lived happily ever after.
