That Appeal to Southern Prides.
Richmond, Va July .15, 1899.
TlJere has been on exhibition
in this city tl series of thirty-one
(31) oil paintings, made at Char
leston, South Carolina between
the dates of September 16. 18G3,
and March 10, 1804, by Mr. Con
rad Viso Chapifian, who left his
studio, in Rome, to take part
with iv) in our struggle. .The
pain times are of extraordina ry
interest, tiot only as works of
art, bi:t because they represent
vividly the actual daily life and
appearance of the men, batteries
and bpats, who successfully de
, fended Charleston against every
attack made on it from tho
vaterfront.
' ThCso pictures would have
great value for any Museum as
works of 'art, but for the South
--foivlhis Museum, which holds
the memories, and relics of the
entire Confederacy, they are
priceless. They wore executed
on the' spot, often under heavy
fire; and were painted under the
strong impetus of personal en
thusiasm, by the young artist
who was detailed for the specific
purpose , They exist today with
out parallel or qopies, and, above
all, they prove the fact (too of
ten .overlooked) that the Con
f ederacy Achieved remarkable re
sults in the - field of mili tary
service and invention.
To describe them as they de
serve will be impossible at this
time; only a few striking points
can be mentioned in this brief
letter.
Picture No. 14 represents the
submarine torpedo-boat "H L
Hunley." This was the first sub
marine boat ever constructed.
$he sank the "Keokuk, "and was
herself lost, with all her cr,ew.
We have, therefore, the only au
thentic' picture of a boat whose
creation showed the power of the
Southern mind invent, and
whose end proved once more the
courage of the Confederate heart
to dare any peril for the cause
for which we fought.
In Nof 4 ' we have the only
picture of "The David," the first
torpedo-boat ever used in naval
warfare, and thus made forever
famous.
No. 17 shows a night bombard
ment by calcium searchlights
since become one of the most
powerful aids in waging war.
Thus it wilt bo seen that in
each of tho thirty-.one 31) pic
tures is represented some notable
event of historic intefest to us
and all future generations which'
.we cannot afford to let pass
away from usT We 16ok to you
to hejp us in securing them; wS
cannot do it alone. Can you not
raise for this purpose one hun
dred dollars (SI 00) in your hon
ored State? If each State will
e
never yet appealed in vain to
you nor will wo now.
Please publish this letter in
your da;ly papers, aiyl also take
such other steps as may seem
best to you for the, accomplish
ment of tins end.
I am yours cordiajlym the work,
Belle. Buy an,

Two Tape Worms In One Year.
We are informed that the five-
year-old daughter of Mr. Geo.
Crainshaw, living in what is
called Fetzer Town, ''has suffered
more or less for about two years
from a ravenous appetite, especi
ally for carniverous food. About
one year ago she was relieved of
a tape worm fifteen feet in length.
The symptoms were soon appar
ent again and indicated the exist
ence of the same trouble which, re
fused to yield to ordinary; medi
cines. On Tuesday evening tMr.

and got a prescription?,, that

We hope a new period of health
is in store for her.' V . - !
