On wednesday morning in chapel
the students were favored with most
interesting address by Matthew DAILY
of Duluth. Mimi. Mr.. DAILY was con-
verted three years ago in the bread
line at the Bethel mission of Duluth.
For most of his life previous to that
time he had been, as he put it, a.
social outcast Twelve years of his
life he had spent in various prisons
for thefts. He was an infidel, a follower
Of Ingersoll, and with the proceeds of
a bank robbery in Tennessee he went
to France, attracted there by the fame
of Voltaire. In the course OF his adj
dress he made the statement that he
had reaped the fruits of such belief.
Since his conversion he has been a
transformed character For the last
three years he has been engaged as
an evangelist, or sky pilot, in the par
lance of the woods, among the lumber
camps of Minnesota. During the past
winter he travelled over 1000 miles on
foot In the pursuit Of his work,
through two or three feet Of snow,
and as q result OF his labors nineteen
men were converted and nine families
have been reunited. 1t was in the in
terests of one of the reunions that he
came to Moorhead and his appearance
here was the occasion of the presi
dent inviting him to the college to adj
dress the students. This was his first
appearance before a college audience,
and the students listened with rapt
attention to his brief and pithy adj
dress. His simple and direct manner
appealed to the students and he was
greeted with rousing applause as he
resumed his seat.
