and hard as wood carver 10 earn the
money needed for an art education.
Having at last obtained a sum sufficient
for one term at the Chicago Art school,
she went to that city, and while in the
Central station her pocket was picked
and she lost every cent Without vast
ing an hour in useless repining she hunt
ed dressmaking establishment and
was soon so skillful in that Inns that she
could earn dollar day!
Having saved thirty dollars she began
work on her own account, and, as she
naively SAYS, sometimes made as much
as fifteen dollars week" In no long
time she was able to fit up a studio. and
orders came IN SO fast that with a friend
she took rooms at the Palmer House,
and was making rapid progress when
the great misfortune came. She fell
down the elevator well at Music hall,
falling fifteen feet and striking on the
stone pavement. For months she lay
upon couch, with heavy weights hold
ing her dislocated limbs in place, but
her friends gave benefit entertainment
for her In Music hall, she obtained dam
ages from the elevator company and
then started for Rome ''On crutch and
cane"
Her success has been great. Her first
notable work was the execution Of busts
of General and Mrs. Logan, and she has
never since lacked patrons. Her home
is in Washington city. but she has re-
Gently returned to Rome to do some spe-
cially delicate work. She has finished
busts of Miss Susan B. Anthony, Mrs.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Mrs. Lucretia
Mott and Mrs. Livermore, which are to
go first to the Columbian exposition and
then to the Capitol at Washington. to
| be the first busts of American women
that have graced its halls. Her friend
and long time chum in Rome, Miss
Luella Varney, gives this simple ac-
count OF her beginnings in art:
Il had art dreams when was q little

fortune. AS was but natural, the New
World was first in giving women the
larger freedom, though England was not
far behind.
Mrs. Felicia Hemans (nee Browne) is
said to have ''read Shakespeare under
standingly" at nine years of age; but as
this is more than most of us ever accom-
plish, journalists have taken the liberty
of disputing it. At fourteen she pub
ished her first poems in a volume en-
titled "Early Blossoms" They were Ell
tirely too early to meet with favor, and
harsh criticism caused her to retire for a
few years. Anna Dickinson wrote an
able article for The Liberator at four
teen, made brilliant speech at fifteen
and was famous orator at twenty-one,
having been turned out of her place III
the Philadelphia mint at nineteen for
charging the commander of the Army Of
the Potomac with treason. Her most
ardent admirers do not deny that her
briliiancy has always been somewhat Ia
advance of her judgment.
Rosa Bonheur was recognized in the
French art exhibition at nineteen and
won first class medal at twenty-six.
Harriet Hosmer was also famous at
twenty-five, and Winnie Ream succeeded
in provoking the critics to frenzy at a
very early age. She executed Lincoln
in stone at the age of twenty-four, and
it was the first statue by a woman ever
ordered by the national government,
but as to the rest artists are not yet
agreed But most remarkable of all
American cases perhaps is that of Ed
monia Lewis. Her father was negro,
her mother q Chippewa Indian woman,
and she was left an orphan at the age of
three, yet she was noted aG twenty, and
at thirty received high honors in Rome
as a sculptress.
The three Logan sisters also attained
70 early fame, but the world was long
time in coming to take Olive seriously.
She was married at sixteen and divorced
at twenty-four; then gained some fame
as actress, authoress and lecturer; mar
ried Writ Skies, and is again q widow.
OF the young American women now ac-
tive in art, literature and pnilanthropic
labors, the names would fill a column.
Among those in art much talked off is
Miss Louise Lawson, whose statue Of
Hon. Samuel Sullivan Cox c'Sunset'')
was unveiled in Aston place, New York,
last year-the first public statue by a
woman given place in that city.
OF herself she says that all there is
about her is work. Her father, Pro
fessor L. NJ. Lawson, was dean for many
years of the Ohio Medical college, and
her earliest play was to take to pieces
and reconstruct beautiful articulated
skeleton She was not sent to school
in childhood. The father educated
her after plan of his own, and SO
her education is peculiar, though
thorough. She knew every bone in the
human body long before she knew the

alphabet. Being given some soft blue
limestone, pulverized and made into
paste for mud pie" purposes, she
modelled a head, hand and foot which
attracted attention by their fidelity to
nature.
She entered the Cincinnati Art school
quite young, took modelling lessons Of
Louis Rebisso, and then went to Italy,
where she soon won a name and was
made amember Of the academy at Peru
gia. Her first finished production in
marble, THE Rhodian Boy" is still
thought by many to be the finest she has
ever done, and is to be exhibited at Chi
cago. She is an enthusiast on art, and
maintains that it is the index of peo-
Piles progress in humanity. People do
not SO consider it, she lays; ''but civi-
lization is dependent on art. Further
more, it is, rs William Hunt says, all
that remains of man IS art For ex-
ample, the Pbenicians were without
doubt wonderful people, but they had
no art, and there is almost nothing that
remains to us of them
Two other American girls, now in
Rome, have had interesting careers
Miss Luella Varney and Miss Adelaide
Johnson. The latter has triumphed
over extraordinary misfortunes. She
was born at Plymouth, Ills, and obtained
some training at the School of Design in
st. Louis, where she learned TO carve in
wood. This only excited her ambition
