YAWCOB'S DRIBDLATIONS.
    Maybe dot you don'd rememper,
       Eighdeen — dwendy years ago,
    How I dold aboudt mine Yawcob —
       Dot young rashkell, don'd you know,
    Who got schicken-box und measles;
       Filled mine bipe mit Limburg scheeze;
    Cut mine cane up indo dhrum-schticks,
       Und blay all sooch dricks as dhese.
    Yell! dhose times dhey vas been ofer,
       Und dot son off mine, py shings!
    Now vas taller as hees fader,
       Und vas oup to all sooch dhings
    Like shimnastic dricks und pase-pall;
       Und der oder day he say
    Dot he boxes mit " adthledics,"
       Somevheres ofer on Back Bay.
    Times vas deeferent, now, I dold you,
       As vhen he vas been a lad;
    Dhen Katrine she make hees drowsers
       Vrom der oldt vones off hees dad;
    Dhey vas cut so full und baggy
       Dot id dook more as a fool
    To find oudt eef he vas going,
       Or vas coming home vrom school.
    Now, dhere vas no making ofer
       Off mine clothes to make a suit
    For dot poy — der times vas exchanged;
       "Der leg vas on der oder boot;"
    For vhen hees drowsers dhey gets dhin,
       Und sort off "schlazy" roundt der knee,
    Dot Mrs. Strauss she dake der sceessors
       Und she cuts dhem down for me.
    Shnst der oder day dot Yawcob
       Gife me von elecdric shock,
    Vhen he say he vants fife-hundord
       To invesht in railroadt schtock.
    Dhen I dell him id vas beddher
       Dot he leaf der schtocks alone,

       Und say he get "echwiped" und fooled,
    Dheri he say he haf a "pointer"
       Yrom soom friendts off Sage und Gould;
    Und dot he vas on " rock bottom;"

    Dhen in bolitics he dabbles,
       Und all qvesdions, great und schmall,

       For dot poy he knows id all.
    Und he say dot dhose oldt fogies

    Und der governors und mayors
       Should pe young men — like himself.
    Yell! I vish I vas dransborted

       Und der ruckshuns in der house;
    Budt mine presendt dribulations
       Vas too mooch for Meester Strauss.
# Yawcob Strauss and Other Poems/Vas Marriage a Failure?

    Vas marriage a failure? "Veil, now, dot depends

    Eef dhey don'd pool togeddher righdt off at der shtart,
    Ten dimes oudt off nine dhey van beddher apart.
    Vas marriage a failure? Der vote vas in doubt;

    Gets a vife mit some fife hundord dousand in cash,
    Budt, after der honeymoon, vhere vas der honey?
    She haf der oxberience — he haf der money.
    Vas marriage a failure? Eef dot vas der case,

    Vot you dink dot der oldt "Pilgrim faders" vould say,
    Who came in dot Sunflower to oldt Plymouth Bay,
    To see der fine coundtry dis peoples haf got,
    Und dhen hear dhem ask sooch conondhrums as dot?

    Und she take me vhere Yawcob und leedle Loweeze
    By dheir shnug trundle-bed vas shust saying dheir prayer,
    Und she say, mit some pride: "Dhere vas no failures dhere!"

# Woman of the Century/Emma R. Steiner

​STEINER, Miss Emma R., musical composer and orchestral conductor, was born in Baltimore, Md. Her father, Colonel Frederick Steiner, was well known in commercial and military circles.

The only instruction she ever received in music was a three-month course under Professor Frank Mitler, while she was a student in the Southern Institute. She is a self-educated musician. She went to Chicago and entered the chorus of an operatic company, and there she attracted the attention of E. Rice, who engaged her as director in one of his companies in "Iolanthe." She conducted successfully in Boston, and later in Toronto, Canada, where she took the place of Harry Braham, who was taken ill. She succeeded in every attempt and was at once recognized as the possessor of all the qualities that make a successful orchestral conductor. Her ambition was next employed in the production of an opera of her own composition, and "Fleurette" was there suit. She then dramatized Tennyson's "Day Dream." She is engaged on several other operas, some of them of a higher grade. Four of her compositions were selected by Theodore Thomas, to be played in the Columbian Exposition in 1893. These are "I Envy the Rose," "Tecolotl." a Mexican love-song, a "Waltz Song" from "Fleurette," and an operatic "ensemble" ​for principals and choruses with full orchestral accompaniment. She is recognized as a composer of great merit, a conductor of much ability and a musician whose abilities are marked in every branch of the art. Her home is in New York City.
