"Blackville, on the line of thc

resideuts of the little town wen
frightened out of their wits.
The motion of the shock rang?e

"About 8.30 the inhabitants ol

A Charming: Letter From Edije
field'.v Talented Artist.
No. 47 W. 94th ST., N. Y. CITY, )
May 6th, 1S97. \
DEAR ADVERTISER: If "brevitj
be the soul of wit," then ray lefitei
to tho Chronicle was sadly wanting
in thal desirable quality, soul:
and I will endeavor to be more
moderate in the length of this.
I am, ?s I wrote tho Chronicle, a
pupil in ?he Art Students League
where over a thousand have regis
tered this session. The splendid
building and lot were donated to
the American Fine Arts Society by
George W. Vanderbilt, I entered5
by choice, the antique class-copy
ing from the human figure or plas
ter casts-and am progressing, I
think. The instructor in this
class is Pref. Twachtman, a pupil
of no less important ascists than
Boulanger and Lefebose. He is
severe, indeed, in his criticisms,
and those under his instruction
tremble when he makes his ap
pearance. On last criticism day
my pulse was very quick, nothing
unusual on those days, and when
the professor took his stand beside
mo to examine my work, I ex
pected a "rasping" and nerved n y
self for the ordeal : so imagino my
relief and delight when the (to
me) melodious words fell from his
lips "That is good, you may take
another model." What a look of
approval I received from my fel
low s'udents ! In addison to ray
work at League, lam taking pri
vate lessons in miniature painting,
also am copying in Metropolitan
Museum of Art-not Metropolitan
Art School, the tw ) places are dis
tinct and separate. This magnifi
cent building is in Central Park,
and contains, among hundreds of
rarert productions by famous
artists, the celebrated painting
"The Horse Fair," by Rosa Bon
heur; the exquisite statue "Medea
Meditating the Murder of Her
Children," "Veanfl de Medici,"
etc. The miniature painting al
luded to has been long out of vogue,
but is now revived and is quite
fashionable as well as cosily. My
teacher charges fifty dollars for
one picture the size of a nickel
piece. They are done on ivory and
extremely delicate work is requir
ed in painting them
Though my time is mich taken
up with my studies, I have s<
many places and objects of'beauty
and interest, notably Central Pf rt
moments.
By tbe way, a few days ago I,
with a friend, went in "Thc City
of Englewood" across the lovely
Hudson into New Jersey and visit
ed the city for which the boat is
named, "Englewood. We saw there
many splendid residences and the
loveliest flowers, also the Palisades
and much grand scenery.
There was recently iu the Lea
gue building an exhibit of paint
ings by American artisfe, some
them by Julien Story, you remem
ber he married the beautiful ac
tress Emma Eames. One of his
pictures was the sketch in eil from
which he painted the portrait of
the Prince of Wales for William
Waldorf Astor.
By the way, Mr. Editor, aro you
not surprised when I tell you that
I, a little country artist, have sold
one of my paintings in New York?
It is even so. My friend Florence
will remember the picture "Elaine"
where the "Lily Maid of Astolat,"
after death, is being carried on her
funeral barge up the river to the
palace of King Arthur. Excuse
my seaming egotism when I
you it was very much admired by
all who saw it, and sold readily. 1
am so elated at the fact I could
not help telling you of it.
"My lines have fallen in pleas
ant places" here. Am so fortunate
as to be boarding in the house with
Miss,Josephiue Walton, formerly
of Augusfa, Ga., but now a resi
dent of this city. She is widely
known in New York, is teaching
Belles Lettres in Brook'vn and
this city. No young lady who
wishes finishing touches to hoi
education and at the same time de
sires to enjoy the advantages of a
few . months stay in New York,
could do batter than place herseli
under the care of Miss Walton,
who is as lovely in character a.c
she is in person. Hoping I havt
not wearied your patience,
I am sincerely,
ELIZA MORRISON MIMS.

An Open Letter.
Augusta Herald : I am.a resident
of Lincoln county. Ga., and have
been in bad health for 20 years,
spending thousands of dollars for
medicines and doctor' bills. I had
about given un all hope of gettiug
well, when some two weeks ago I
got a message from my brother,
J. D. Moss, who resides in Augusta,
to come down and try Prof, Nichols'
Magnetic treal mont. After muster
ing up all the strength I possibly
could, 1 boarded the train and came
to Augusta. When I reached there
I was prostrated- -thought I would
die on the road. After taking Prof.
Nichols' treatment for ten days I
feel so much improved that I feel
fully justified in saying that I will
with a few more treatments recover
my health entirely. Prof. Nichols
is a wonderful man and I take this
means of telling al! ladies sufienng
with any trouble that their family
physician has failed to cure with
medicines, lo go and get. cured at
once by his svonderful treatment pf
magnetism. Ho has simply done
more tor me iu ten days than all
the physicians who havetreattiU nie
in 20 years time.
.Mr. J. D. Moss', her brother, who
holds a prominent position with
tho larg;; dry goods houso of
Landram & Butler; will testify to
tin* sam".
Mrs. Dallis can be seen at Prof.
Nichols' office at Gt?) Proud
