The hall of history's collection in one of its departments, or rather period; have grown so rapidly that many more cases are needed to display them. The increase in the number of visitors since the present war began is remarkably great, of course the collection is kept up-to-date, and quite naturally inter est in the objects illustrating the war now in progress far outranks all else, yet visitors do not fail to take in the other relics, which illustrate the state's life and history all the way from the first discovery in 15S4. Many visitors remark that the civil war seems vastly more remote than if did . two,. years ago, yet the flags and the other relics of that conflict' tell a great story of brav ery and endurance, of thrift and inge nuity; the thrift certainly putting to the blush many, many North Carolin ians of the present day.

The boat was invent ed by Captain Hunley. of Mofbile, Ala., who became one of the many victims of thye treacherous unmanageable craft: a singular coincidence the only federal ship ever sunk by the "Fish Boat" was the United States sloop of war Housatonic, which was sunk with nearly its entire crew in Charleston harbor. Its captain died only a few weeks ago. He was saved, with part of the crew, by climbing into the rig ging of the sunken ship, which was out of the water. They were taken off by the blockading fleet off the bar. The namesake of the original Housa tonic was only recently destroyed by one of the more modern German sub marines. C. H.

This boat was constructed at Mo bile by Hunley & McClintock. Before his death Mr. Hasker gave a descrip tion of the "Fish Boat" and told how he himself came near losing his life in the little vessel after haying his leg caught and broken in the iron manhole at the top. He says the boat was designed with a pair of wings, or fins, winch were connected by a bar running., thro-ugh the boat -just aft of the ..orward manhole. The boat was propelled by eight men seated along its bottom. The shaft was fashioned so that the hands of four of the men would be at the top at the same time that the hands of ..the other four" were at the bottom, in this way giving more leverage. Tlie boat, according to the account left by Mr. Hasker, was from 35 to 40 feet lojtg, five feet deep, three and one-half feet in beam, and with two hatches, or manholes, much the same as a boiler manhole. The boat was designed"" to dive lake a fish, and the fins alluded to were for this purpose. A lever connected with the bar which connected with the fins -turned them on an anie of about fifteen degrees. The boat was by this means carried down until it had attained the proper depth, when the fins were readjusted and the "Fish Boat" was supposed to remain stationary. It could remain under the water only one hour. A candle was always lighted when she made a dive, and when the candle grew dim they had to come to the surface for more air. While equipped with no periscope, I was at the University of North Carolina and as a member of the jun ior class would have graduated in 1862; but Marsden Bellamy, of Wil mington, N. C, Sherrard Williams, of Washington, X. C, and I joined the Confederate navy at Charleston. S. C. I was in the paymaster's department in the navy and paid the crews of the submarine boat. I was only 19 years of age when I joined the Confederate navy. In 1911 the University of North Carolina called all the surviving pu pils who joined "the Confederate ser vice back to the university and gave us our diplomas. President Wilson was present then and handed us our diplomas. The Daughters of the Con federacy erected a bronze statue, cost ing 17,800, to the memory of the stu dents who joined the Confederate ser vice, our class of 1862 giving them ?100. In 1913 I witnessed the unveil ing of our monument. I was at the evacuation of Charleston, Wilmington and Richmond, and surrendered with Lee at Appomattox.

Hasker says: "A pipe about four feet long, worked fro mthe inside, afford ed fresh air when near the surface. The foul air was pumped out through the bottom." Mr. Hasker was anxious to see how the boat worked and vol unteered as one of the crew to take a dive in her. "We were lying astern of the steam er Etowah, near Fort Johnson, in Charleston harbor. Lieutenant Payne, who had charge, got fouled in the manhole by the hawser and in trying to clear himself got his foot on Che lever which controlled the fins. He had just previously given the order to go ahead. The boat made a dive while the manholes were open and filled rapidly. Payne got out of the forward hole and two others out of the aft hole. Six of us went down with the boat. I had to get over the bar, which connected the flns and through the manhole. This I did by forcing myself through the column of water which was rapidly filling the boat.

"The Love Mill" relates to modern sham life, as portrayed by a family of girls whose mother is desperately anxi6us to get them married to eligi ble young men, meaning rich men. How well she succeeded is told as the play develops. However, through the mesh of circumstances, there occur all manner of complications, and there runs any number of pretty, r tuneful song numbers. There is, too, a good ly number of pretty girls, who sing delightfully. The principals and cho rus are much above the average in mu sical comedy. The great organization presenting "The Love Mill" is all that could be desired, boasting a cast of many nation-wide favorites of stellar -rank.

In "The Shuttle" Miss Talmadge has another opportunity to display her am bidextrous art, so to speak, for in it she again gives a noteworthy dramatic performance. The sturdy young hero ine, still in her teens, as remembered In the novel, gives an impersonation of an extremely strong dramatic role. She is supported by Edith Johnson, if 5 if .

Argen tina and Chile evidently have been drawn closer "together as the result of the visit to this city of the special Chilean embassy which was composed of leading Chileans. A remarkably cordial reception was accorded to the visitors by the Argentine government. The Chilean embassy came to Buenos Aires to participate in the unveiling of a monument to the Chilean hero, O'Higgins, on the Chilean independ ence day, and the Argentine newspa pers have commented at great length on the mission as cementing even more closely the ties of friendship between Chile and Argentina. In the eyes of foreign residents this friendship is be coming more and more one of common opposition to the invasion of foreign interests. Senor Vial Solar, a prominent Chil ean who was a member of the embassy gave out an interview in which he criticised the fact that all the impor tant Argentine railways are foreign owned. He said these should be taken over by the Argentine government and that the governments of Argentina and Chile should take over especially the Transandine line, which is British owned. The entire interview was de voted to telling Argentina it should stand on its own feet without foreign aid. - Persons close to President Irigoyen say that Dr. Bulnes, head of the Chil ean envoys, talked to the president along the same lines and that a closer union between the two republics was discussed with the view of making them economically independent of for eign nations, especially Great Britain and the United States. During the visit of the Chileans, President Irigoyen was almost prodi gal in personal attentions to Dr. Bul nes. Breaking a habit, hitherto in veterate since his assumption of the government, the president attended the official banquet in honor of the em bassy at the government house, as also a luncheon given at the national live stock exposition by the authorities of the Argentine Rural society. The German residents of Argentina and Chile have heartily praised this obvious approachment of the two re publics which, though close neighbors and conventionally cordial, had not been exceptionally good friends in re-f cent years. 43 Sarah's Contribution.
