MONUMENT DESIGN ACCEPTED.
Commission Approves Design Sub
mittcd by Sculptor Ruckstuhl.

Columbia, May 1.-THE monu-
ment commission met in the office of
Governor AnScl to-day and accepted
the design for the monument to the
women of the Confederacy offered
by Sculptor f. w. Ruckstuhl The
design shown in wax is very beauti-
full, apd when the monument is
placed on the Capitol grounds it will
be greatly admired
The commission will need 1000
to complete the work before it, and
OF this amount the State has appro-
priated $500. Capt. w. f. Con
zales reported to the commission to-
day. that there has been collected
through the State $1,000. So there
will be needed about $4,000 in addi-
ton to the funds now in hand, which
II is thought can be easily raised for
such a worthy cause.
The work on the bronze monu-
ment will commence just as soon as
Mr.. Ruckstuhl finishes, the Calhoun
statue and delivers the same. He
leaves for Genoa, where he will COM
piete the work on the Calhoun
statue, and return to this country,
and will then commence the monu-
mcnt. Mr.. Ruckstuhls work is well
known here, as he did the imposing
statue of Wade hampton, which is
so much admired.
The monument to the women of
the Confederacy will give expression
to a beautiful thought. The wax
model shows that there will be repre-
Sen,ed in bronze a woman embOdy-
ing the characteristics of Southern
beauty. The figure-sitting-.w will
show woman in a quiet attitude.
thoughtful and serene, dressed in the
plain modes of the time, a woman
with a slight expression Of care to
shoN that she has suffered. Back of
this figure there will be the Genius
Of the South holding in her out
stretched arms crown-all action
here--for she Is about to crown the
woman of the South. On the right
is a Cupid, the boy Of the South.
bearing a gift-flowers. wreath
On the left a Cupid, bearing scroll
the Act Of the Legislature signed
by the Governor-symbolic Of what
the monument represents. 1t Is hard
to pen the beauty of the contrast
the woman of the South, beautiful
and serene-the action of those who
would do her honor.
The monument will stand 16 feet
from the base. The figures will be
one and a quarter life-siZe When
completed 1T will indeed be n fitting
tribute to the noble women of the
South. Mr.. Ruckstuhl said to-day
that South Carolina will be unique
in perpetuating the memory of her
women, as there is no elaborate me-
mortal of this kind in any other State
Of the Union.

This is a new preparation and a
good one. 1t is especially valuable
as cure for chronic and muscular
rheumatism, and for the relief from
pain which it affords in acute in
fammatOry rheumatism. Those who
have used ii have invariably spoken
OF 1t in the highest terms OF praise.
Lame back, lame shoulder and stiff
neck are due to rheumatism of the
muscles, usually brought on by eX-
posure 10 cold or damp, and are
quickly cured by applying this lini-
