Thanks to librarian Sam Kome, who passed along this clipping from the Library of Congress archive of an article about Fleming in a newspaper from North Dakota October 18, 1906. Willison, Williams County, N.D. The headline notes that “Mrs. Fleming has discovered six out of nine new stars.”
Here is the article in the context of the page, between The Duel and A Nervous Wreck and right above A Wonderful Rose Garden.
More about Fleming (May 15, 1857 – May 21, 1911) here on Wikipedia about her work with Pickering at the Harvard College Observatory, including her discovery of the Horsehead Nebula.
The memory palace did a great podcast episode about her and the other women who worked at the observatory.

Thanks for the link!
My heart swelled with pride as I read about this remarkable women of Science. My hat goes off to her for her discoveries and accomplishments in a male dominated field of study.
Back in school I actually had to do a report of Mrs Fleming. Interesting.
