MINE KATRINE.
You vouldn't dink mine frau
If you shust look at her now,
Vhere der wrinkles on her prow
 Long haf been,
Vas der fräulein blump und fair,
Mit der wafy flaxen hair,
Who did vonce mine heart enshnare—
 Mine Katrine.
Der dime seems shord to me
Since ve game acrosd der sea,
To der gountry off der free
 Ve'd neffer seen;
Bud ve hear der beople say
Dhere vas vork und blendy bay,
So I shtarted righdt avay
 Mit Katrine.
Oh, der shoy dot filled mine house
Vhen dot goot oldt Toctor Krauss
Brought us "Leedle Yawcob Strauss,"
 Shveet und clean;
Vhy, I don'd pelief mine eyes
Vhen I look, now, mit surbrise,
On dot feller, shust der size
 Off Katrine!
Den "dot leedle babe off mine,"
He vas grown so tall und fine—
Shust so sdrait as any pine
 You effer seen,
Und der beoples all agree
Sooch fine poys dhey neffer see.
(Dhey looks much more like ine
 As Katrine.)
Veil, ve haf our criefs und shoys,
Und dhere's naught our lofe destroys,
Budt I miss dhose leedle poys
 Dot used to been;
Und der tears vill somedime sdart,
Und I feels so sick at heart,
Vhen I dinks I soon must part
 From Katrine.
Oldt Time vill soon pe here,
Mit his sickle und his shpear,
Und vill vhisper in mine ear
 Mit sober mien:
"You must cooin along mit me,
For id vas der Lord's decree;
Und von day dhose poys you'll see
 Und Katrine."
# Yawcob Strauss and Other Poems/L-E-G on a Mule

L-E-G ON A MULE.
    Did you hear of the accident, just t'other day,
    That occurred to a youth of the Y. M. C. A. ?
    One morning, while walking out with his friend Neff,—
    M. W. G. M. of the I. O. O. F.,—
    His friend exclaimed suddenly, "Look there, I say!
    There's a chance for the S. F. P. O. C. T. A.!"
    A "broth of a boy," who was just from a spree,
    Was cruelly beating his m-u-l-e.
    Our hero stepped up to expostulate, when
    The mule kicked his a-b-d-o-m-e-n.
    This doubled him up with a half-muttered phrase,
    As foot No. 2 knocked him e-n-d-ways.
    They bore him home gently, as gently could be,
    And gave him a pint of hot l-oo-t.
    A voltaic plaster they placed, sans delay,
    Where that treacherous mule left his m-a-r-k.
    A hip dislocated; a general jar;
    Striking proofs of "one-mule p-o-w-e-r."
    When the patient first spoke, what d'ye s'pose he did say,—
    This model young man of the Y. M. C. A.?
    Says he, "I'll be b-l-o-w-e-d
    If ever I'll plead for a m-u-l-e!"
# Yawcob Strauss and Other Poems/Little Tim's Revenge

LITTLE TIM'S REVENGE.
    "Little Tim " was the name of him
       Of whom I have to tell;
    And he abode on the Western road,
       In the busy town of L--.
    As trains went down through the little town,
       He peddled through the cars
    His stock in trade, — iced lemonade,
       Cake, peanuts, and cigars.
    Conductor Dunn was the only one
       Who'd not this trade allow;
    And so 'twixt him and little Tim
       There always was a row.
    At last one day they had a fray;
       And Timothy declared
    He'd "fix old Dunn, 'as sure's a gun,'"
       If both their lives were spared.
    So off he went with this intent,
       And sold his stock in trade:
    His earnings hard he spent for lard,
       And started for "the grade."
    (This place, you know, is where trains go
       Upon the steep hillside,
    And where — with lard — it isn't hard
       To get up quite a slide.)
    He took a stick, and spread it thick,
       Remarking with a smile,
    "There'll be some fun when Mr. Dunn
       Commences to 'strike ile'!"
    He lay in wait: the train was late,
       And came a-puffing hard,
    With heavy load, right up the road
       To where he'd spread the lard.
    They tried in vain: that fated train
       Could not ascend the grade:
    The wheels would spin with horrid din
       Yet no advance was made.
    Then little Tim — 'twas bold in him —
       Cried out in accents shrill,
    "Remember me, Conductor D.,
       When you get up the hill!"
          MORAL.
    Success in trade is up a grade
       That we should all ascend,
    And with a will help up the hill
       Our fellow-man and friend.
    When "on the road," don't incommode
       The seeker after pelf,
    Or ten to one, like Mr. Dunn,
       You'll not get up yourself.

Dwelling in Mesech by John Newton
    What a mournful life is mine,
    Fill with crosses, pains and cares!
    Every work defiled with sin,
    Every step beset with snares!
    If alone I pensive fit,
    I myself can hardly bear;
    If I pass along the street,
    Sin and riot triumph there.
    Jesus! how my heart is pained,
    How it mourns for souls deceived!
    When I hear thy name profaned,
    When I see thy Spirit grieved!
    When thy children's griefs I view,
    Their distress becomes my own;
    All I hear, or see, or do,
    Makes me tremble, weep and groan.
    Mourning thus I long had been,
    When I heard my Savior's voice;
    Thou hast cause to mourn for sin,
    But in me thou may'st rejoice."
    This kind word dispelled my grief,
    Put to silence my complaints;
    Though of sinners I am chief,
    He his ranked me with his saints.
    Though constrained to dwell a while
    Where the wicked strive and brawl;
    Let them frown; so he but smile,
    Heav'n will make amends for all.
    There, believers, we shall rest,
    Free from sorrow, sin and fears;
    Nothing there our peace molests,
    Through eternal rounds of years.
    Let us then the fight endure,
    See our Captain looking down;
    He will make the conquest sure,
    And bestow the promised crown.

# Woman of the Century/L. Vance Phillips

​PHILLIPS, Mrs. L. Vance, artist, born in a country home in Vernon county, Wis., in 1858. She was a child of fourteen, when she saw clearly the path marked out for her to follow. At the age of ten years she had shown extraordinary ability in drawing and was looked upon by her teachers as a child of talent. L. VANCE PHILLIPS. Thrown on her own resources at the age of fourteen, she not only supported herself, but, without other aid than her own courageous and determined spirit, she succeeded in obtaining a good education in the art to which she was devoted, as well as in other branches. She studied under the best teachers in Chicago, Cincinnati and New York. Limited always to her own earnings, she has progressed steadily and won an enviable fame. Not only in the State of Nebr »ska, but in the art centers of the country, her work has received high praise, and the art magazines do her honor in their reviews of the Chicago yearly exhibits. In china-decorating, her specialty, she excels, also in figure-painting. Nebraska probably owes as much to her as to any one person for the present high plane art has attained within its borders. The four cities in which she has resided, Hastings, Grand Island, Kearney and Omaha, have felt her vivifying influence and breathe a more elevated atmosphere of art. She is the mother of one child, a daughter.
# Woman of the Century/Katherine Kurt

​KURT, Miss Katherine, homeopathic physician, born in Wooster, Wayne county, Ohio, 19th December, 1852. She is the eighth of a family of twelve children, and the first born on American soil. Her father and mother were natives of Switzerland. The father was a weaver and found it hard to keep so large a family. Upon the death of the mother, when Katherine was eight years of age, all the children but one or two of the older ones were placed in the homes of friends The father was opposed to having any of the children legally adopted by his friends, but he placed Katherine in a family where, for a number of years, she had a home, with the privilege of attending school a few months in each year, and there was laid the foundation of the structure which, as she grew older, developed her native strength of mind. She performed the duties of her station, treading unmurmuringly the appointed way of life. When about nineteen years old, she began to teach in the public schools of her native county, and she saved enough to allow her to enter an academy, that she might better prepare herself for teaching, which, at that time, was tier only aim. While in the academy in Lodi, Ohio, the idea of being a physician was first suggested to her, and from that time on she worked, studying and teaching, with a definite aim in view. In the spring of 1877 she entered Buchtel College, Akron, Ohio, as a special student. There she remained about three years, working her own way, ​the third year being an assistant teacher in the preparatory department. During the latter part of her course in Buchtel College, she also began the study of medicine under the preceptorship of a physician KATHERINE KURT. in Akron, and in the fall of 1880 she entered the Hahnemann Medical College of Chicago, from which institution she was graduated on 23rd February, 1882, rank, d among the first of a class of one-hundred-one members, having spent one term as assistant in the Chicago Surgical Institute. She then went to Akron, Ohio, and opened an office in June, 1882. In less than ten years she has secured an established, lucrative practice, has freed herself from all debts and has some paying investments. In religion Dr. Kurt is a Universalist. She is active in church work and for a number of years has been a faithful and earnest teacher in Sunday-school. Her work has been on the side of philanthropic and reformatory movements. She is an advocate for the higher education of woman and a firm believer in suffrage for woman. Politically she sympathizes with the Prohibition party. For several years she has been the State superintendent of heredity in the Ohio Woman's Christian Temperance Union.
# Woman of the Century/Katherine Van Allen Grinnell

​GRINNELL, Mrs. Katherine Van Allen, (Adasha) religious worker, born in Pillar Point, Jefferson county, N. Y., 20th April, 1839. Her maiden name was Katherine Van Allen, and her father was the owner of a fine estate near Sackett's Harbor. About the time of her birth a great religious revival swept over the country. Her parents came under its influence and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church. Their home thereafter was the home of the Methodist preacher and a center of active work for building up the interests of the town. At the age of fourteen years she became a member of the church. At fifteen she was sent to Falley Seminary. Her preceptress was Miss Rachel C. Newman, and the young student owed much to the influence of that noble woman. In 1864 she became the wife of Graham G. Grinnell, a deacon in the Presbyterian Church in Adams, N. Y., and united with that church, frankly asserting her inability to accept its doctrines as she understood them, engaging to acquaint herself with them and to come into harmony with them if possible. As the years passed, her spiritual life deepened and her sympathy with dogmatic teachings grew less. In 1871, just before the great fire, the family ​removed to Chicago, Ill. Soon after she took up seriously spiritualistic study and has written much KATHERINE VAN ALLEN GRINNELL. upon that subject. Whatever success she may have achieved has been the result of the sincerity and spirit of absolute self-renunciation with which she strove to find the truth of things. Mrs. Grinnell is now living in Mayfair, Cook county, Ill., devoting her time to the propagation of her exalted theories.
# Woman of the Century/Lasell Carbell Pickett

​PICKETT, Mrs. Lasell Carbell, author, born in Chuckatuck, Nansemond county, Va.. in 1848. She became the wife of Gen. George E. Pickett on 15th September, 1863. a short time after his famous charge at Gettysburg and the three-day conflict which linked his name to the line of heroes crowned with national homage. At the time of her LASELL CARBELL PICKETT. marriage, Mrs. Pickett was a beautiful girl of fifteen. Her trousseau was smuggled across the lines in bales of hay, and the girlish bride-to-be, taking her fate in her own hands, donned the garb of an old country woman, who sold vegetables to the soldiers, and through strategy reached the camp of General Pickett, who was eagerly waiting for his young bride. From the day of her marriage she shared every phase of army life in camp and in battle, by the side of the hero whom she worshiped. When the war was over, an effort was made to take from General Pickett the privileges given him by the Grant-Lee cartel, and General and Mrs. Pickett went to Canada. Without money and far from friends, it was for the heroic woman to show her indomitable courage. She obtained a professorship in belles-lettres and took care of her family, and General Grant insisted that the cartel should be honored, and the General and his family returned to their home. General Grant then tendered General Pickett the position of Marshal of Virginia, but he chose to accept a situation in an insurance company in Norfolk, with a large salary. Then gladness and peace came to the wife and mother, but only for a little while, and she was left a heart-broken widow with the care of an orphaned son. Again her courage shone out. The sympathy of the South was aroused, and a subscription was started with eight-thousand dollars from one State, and pledges of thousands more from the devoted comrades of her dead hero. Hearing of that plan to put her above the anxiety of temporal want, Mrs. Pickett resolutely declined to accept financial aid, and soon secured a small government position sufficient to support herself and son. In 1891, after recovering from a distressing accident, she was ​threatened with total blindness. As with one heart, the South gave her assurances of sympathy and support, and messages flashed over the wires that she had only to command Pickett's old comrades, and they would rally to her aid. To her belongs the honor of uniting the Blue and the Gray in fraternal bonds. She has been the messenger of peace, trying to reconcile the two factions and ridge over the chasm once so broad and deep. No woman to-day is more widely known and honored than Mrs. Pickett. Beautiful still, attracting by her grace and dignity the worthy and illustrious of all circles; gifted with intellect and known as an author, though only by her pen-name, she commands admiration everywhere. With health broken and the almost total loss of her sight, she retains her position in the clerical service of the government, in Washington, and honestly earns her own living, when she could have been heir to the liberality of the South.
# Woman of the Century/Laura A. Linton

​LINTON, Miss Laura A., scientist, born on a farm near Alliance, Ohio, 8th April, 1853. She is the daughter of Joseph Wildman Linton and Christiana Craven Beans. On her father's side she is descended from English Quakers, and on her mother's side from one of the old Dutch families of eastern Pennsylvania. Her girlhood, up to the age of fifteen, was passed on farms in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. In 1868 her parents settled on a farm in Minnesota, and she entered the Winona Nonnal School and was graduated from that institution in 1872. Later she entered the State University in Minneapolis, from which she was graduated in the class of 1879, with the degree ​of B. S. After graduation she taught two years in the high school in Lake City, Minn. While engaged in that work, she accepted an offer made by one of her former instructors, Prof. S. F. Peckham, LAURA A. LINTON. to become his assistant in the preparation of the monograph on petroleum for the reports of the Tenth Census of the United States. She was engaged upon that work for two years, when she entered the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, with a view to graduation, but abandoned her purpose, when she accepted, at the beginning of ihe senior year, the professorship of natural and physical sciences in Lombard University, in Galesburg, Ill. She held that position one year, resigning to assume charge of the physical sciences in the central high school of Minneapolis, Minn., where she has remained eight years. When an undergraduate, she completed an analysis of a new variety of Thomsonite, found on the north shore of Lake Superior; that Profs. Peckham and Hall named "Lintonite" as a reward for her successful efforts. Her many accomplishments made her an invaluable assistant on the census monograph. Accurate mechanical and free-hand drawing, with numerous translations from French and German scientific treatises, combined to that end. While in the Institute of Technology, she devoted her time chiefly to chemistry and physics. In the former she tasted the enthusiasm of the investigator with marked success in a research upon the dyeing and weighting of silks. She is a born student and investigator of nature, and within the limits of her opportunities has achieved marked success. She is a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and of the Association for the Advancement of Women. She has been made State chairman of electricity for the World's Fair.
