Doubting Heart and Poems in an 1891 Indiana Paper
The issue blends verse about a "doubting heart" and seasonal imagery with scattered notes on science and society. It cites a fiveyearold in a San Francisco asylum for homicidal mania, university age trends at Michigan, canal plans for Paris to Rouen, and a long hygiene congress mortality table. A New Mexico treasure expedition near Gran Quivera is reported without success, while wage debates in Allegheny contrast male and female pay over decades. The page closes with Adelaide Anne Procter verse about spring after winter’s gloom.
