Conwell, dead in j Philadelphia at the ajre of Si!, fs one of tho most ieniaik-i able the history of the race. It is of a man who earned ' millions of dollars on the lecture platform and devoted the i money to helping others as fast as he earned it. InNiddition to his work as a lecturer, he built up a jrreat I congregation in Philadelphia as a Baptist clergyman, found- j id Tamplc univei'sity, two hospitals ainkJielped thousand ; ! of worthy youth to an education. Ills experience was of ' the broadest. He had lived tho life oT a soldier, serving: as nn officer in the Civil war;. had practiced law, served as: a newspaperman ..ami immigration agent, and had tiavcled throughout the world. It has loen estimated that he1 caned more than ?ll.ono,00t. lie had delivered hu; L-c-j Uire, "Acres of Diamonds," fi,l."2 times. One of the names! given him was "the penniless millionaire." As he w as eon-' stantly giving away his earnings, it is assumed that at his death he was almost penniless, but tho wealth of the ie-: gaid m which he is held by his fellowmen is licyoud esti mate. 'the career of Kussell II. Conwell is one of those refolds in which the race must ever take pride. TKI.MNt; THE HUTU.
