has decided upon step which will place
him among the great phlanthropists of the
world, unless he lives long enough to alter
his mind. lie announces that he will give
81 100000 to found free college for poor
students, clothing, tuition and food to be
furnished for nothing. Provision is made
for the support of faculty of instructors,
and the whole fund is to be placed in the
hands of ten trustees, five of whom shall
be residents of Indiana and five of adjoin-
ing states. Mr. Carpenter has not quite
completed his plan, but he hopes to wit
ness the beginning of his enterprise before
his death. The institution will be open to
the poor alone, and will not be connected
with any religious sect. Mr. Carpenter is
70 years of age, and is said to resemble in
appearance Horace Greeley. He was born
in Vermont and began life as a peddler,
travelling over the New England states and
New York with a pack on his shoulder.
His children have already had their share
of his estate, and there still remains enough
to carry his project to success
