On this day in 1884, there is trouble at the Metropolitan skating rink. The Columbia Orchestra, created to play there every night, cannot be heard over the din and clatter of metal wheels. They are sent home by the frustrated rink manager. Roller skating is exploding in popularity, as it has become one of the few acceptable ways for "respectable" single men and women to interact closely in public.

On this day in 1917, Columbia gives a grand send-off to six African American soldiers heading to Camp Meade in Maryland for training.

Their names are Harvey Makel, James Duncan, Elmer Johnson, Bernard Johnson, George Ryan and Basil Thompson.

Bell informs the couple that he could not perform a Lancaster-licensed marriage in York County, the wedding party moves to the middle of the bridge to say their “I do’s.”
