sneak on the life of General Joseph
Garibaldi, the Italian patriot who res
rued his country from Prussian OPP
preston.
Courage Fled With Faith.
While Garibaldi had faith. he was
giant in power" said DR.. Conwell.
when he lost faith, he became a
coward"
DR.. Conwell was speaking with au-
thoritv. He was the only American
newspaper man who ever interviewed
the great Italian Washington In
1870. DR.. Conwell, then reporter for
The New York Times, was sent to
Cabrera, Italy, to see Garibaldi. The
interview lasted five days, and upon
Ills return the young newspaper man
wrote one of the finest biographical
stories" ever printed.

loSt faith" said DIR. ConWell to the
Tabernacle audience. "The man who
had dared to oppose and to conquer
the power of Prussia was afraid to
leave his own house. The man who
had the courage to refuse a throne
offered to him by a grateful people
had married his housekeeper, that he
might have always near him someone
whom he trusted.
Spiritualsm Scored.
"He had turned aside from the sub
lime faith of his early days, and his
courage had departed. He had be-
come a coward"
Or. Morgan's last address to the
conference contained a notable ref
ercnce to spiritualism.
such a thing does exist said the
great London minister. There is
such a thing as communion between
spirits and mortals But it is a ter
rible thing. of demoniacal origin. 1t
is fearful traffic with the under
world Of evil. Man can not have
dealings with it and not be harmed"
