Farnsworth Wright: "An Adventure in the Fourth Dimension," "Poisoned," and "The Great Panjandrum"

A few weeks ago we read three 1920s stories by Farnsworth Wright, famous editor of Weird Tales. Let's go back, Jack, and do it again! Two of today's stories were printed in Weird Tales in 1923, when the magazine was edited by Edwin Baird; the third appeared in the first issue Wright edited, the November 1924 number."An Adventure in the Fourth Dimension" (1923)In 1997 there appeared an anthology edited by Marvin Kaye and John Gregory Betancourt and graced with a great Stephen Fabian cover entitled The Best of Weird Tales: 1923, and "An Adventure in the Fourth Dimension" was among its contents. So I guess we have a treat ahead of us!Or not! This is a wacky joke story, a sort of filler piece. It isn't good, but it isn't particularly annoying, so we'll call it barely acceptable. The narrator of "An Adventure in the Fourth Dimension" is a goofy sort of character who addresses us chummily and colloquially. I guess we are supposed to both like him and look down on him as a dope, sort of like…
