GEN. LEW WALLACE DEAD.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Ind, Feb. Is.
After an illness lasting almost a year
Gen. Lew Wallace, historian, author of
ben Hur," and veteran of tine Next
can and Civil wars, died at his home
here tonight at 9:1O.
Gen. Wallace was the son of David
Wallace, former governor of Indiana.
Born in Brookvale in 1927 his early edu-
cation was obtained in the schools Of
his home county, and at an early age he
enlisted and served through the Mexi-
can War. Gen. Wallace fitted himself
for the profession of law, but he had
rare qualities as writer and his SER
vices in Mexico inspired his first great
book, ''The Fair Cod
He was adjutant general of the militia
of Indiana at the outbreak of the Civil
War, and with his command he served
through that war, taking part in the
battle of Fort Donelson, where he per-
formed such gallant service that he was
made major general.
President Hayes made Wallace gov
ernor of the Territory of New Mexico,
but he gave up the appointment to be-
come United States minister to Con-
stantinople in 1881. Just before leaving
for Turkey his famous life work, "Ben
Hur," was completed. The book made
a great impression upon the public and
was the subject of much comment. 1t
is book that will never die. He also
wrote ''The Prince of India
Gen. Wallace was an excellent artist.
He painted reproduction of the as.
sassinatiOn of Lincoln that has received
high praise. His wife was also an au-
th0ress.
In 1877 Wallace served as governor of
Utah. He was delegate to several Re-
publican conventions and was much in
terested in politics. OF late he had
been devoting his time to his autobiog-
raphy. His illness has been of about
years duration, it being caused by a
peculiar disease which gradually weak
ened his system and which did not yield
to treatment.

puted to be worth at least fifty million
dollars.
