An open letter issued by Gen. Clement
A. Evans. president of the Confederate
Memorial Association. says
9 We are very hopeful of pushing our
great enterprise to an early completion
and of erecting in Richmond, the old
capital of the Confederacy, beautiful
memorial hall which will be an enduring
monument to our great leaders, our pri-
vate soldiers and the heroic struggle we
made for constitutional freedom. And
we propose to endow the association with
at least 500, 600, which will enable US to
carry on our work until we shall have
gathered within our hall library, manu-
scripts and Confederate relics and have
them SO arranged, indexed and collated
that the historian OF the future may have
ready access to the material which will
enable him to tell the truth concerning
every period of American history, and
especially the brief but glorious career OF
the Confederate States of America.
'Our former secretary and super
intendent reported as subscribed the full
800, 900 necessary to secure the gift of
that amount by our old comrade, Charles
Broadway Rouss, to whom we owe, in
largest measure, the suggestion and OPP
portunity for this undertaking, and
whose generous contributions during his
lifetime and ample provision made by him
for the payment of the remainder of his
subscription. together with the cheerful
and hearty purpose of his heirs to carry
out his wishes, will always make his
name one that will be inseparably con-
nected with the Confederate Memorial
Hall.
g But the death of another one of the
largest subscribers and the declination of
the heirs of the latter to make good the
subscription, and other complications.
have left us short of realizing orr hopes,
and we have still some money to raise,
and we are calling upon our friends to
help u.s.
The association asksf for large subscrip-
tons to the fund, as we'll as for smaller
amounts. either from individuals or from
camps OF United Confederate Veterans,
chapters of the Daughters of the Confed.
eracy or camps of the Sons of Confederate
Veterans.
Secretary Jones has series of Confed
crate lectures which he will deliver for
the benefit of this fund, dividing the pro-
ceeds with some local object when desir-
ed and crediting the local organizations
with the amount realized as a contribu-
ton to the fund.
Remittance may be made to Secretary
], William Jones. los North Twenty-ninth
street, Richmond, but all checks should
be made payable TO the order of George

ate Memorial Association.

Miss Arnold's Death Recalls an In


The sudden death at Cumberland. Md,
last Friday, OF Miss Laura Virginia Ar
mold, recalls war episode at Winchester
in which she figured, and which
was almost as famous IN the South as the
Barbara Frietchie incident is in the North.
Miss Arnold was a native of Winchester,
and lived there until few years ago.
She was known to have aided the Con-
federates in every way, and when the
Federal forces under General Milroy oc-
cupied the town the Federal commander
confiscated cow for his own use which
belonged to Miss Arnold's father. He
would only give the animal up provided
Miss Arnold would take the oath of al
legiance. She replied If you think
you can conquer the Southern Confeder-
acy by keeping John Arnold's old COW,
you can do it, but will never take the
oath" Her spirit SO impressed the stern
Milroy that he Immediately restored the
COW to its owner and placed Miss Arnold's
house under special protection.

Deufress Cannot be red

by local applications as they cannot reach th,
diseased portion Of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have u rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarr h
which is nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case Of Deafness (causcd by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

been unusually bright on the previous
