[Paris Has Fallen]

Illinois Staats-Zeitung, Jan. 30, 1871

Report on the reception of the news of the fall of Paris and the armistice. Spontaneous victory demonstration at a concert in the Turnhalle. Enthusiasm of which the word enthusiasm is only a weak description.

Question if bets regarding the fall of Paris should be settled immediately, as if it was permissible to wait for more definite news.
