The content of this specific issue delves into several significant topics, mainly focusing on the Klondike Gold Rush and its impact on society. It recounts the incredible fortunes obtained by miners and the perilous journeys undertaken to reach the goldfields, warning readers about the harsh realities of gold-seeking life in the Arctic. Additionally, it covers the political tensions surrounding British control in the Pacific and uprisings in British India, alongside lighter anecdotes such as swimming feats and new inventions.
