  • Henry Ford, Dearborn Michigan
  • Elizabeth Borden, Fall River Massachusetts
  • Nikola Tesla, New York
  • Little Egypt, Chicago (perhaps)
  • Carry A. Nation, Kentucky
  • Mary Baker Eddy, Boston
  • Daniel Burnham, Chicago
  • Herman Webster Mudgett (aka Dr. H.H. Holmes), Chicago
  • Elizabeth Jane Cochran (aka Nellie Bly), New York
  • This year’s symposium promises to provide manna for the mind
