Largest Church (Continued from Fourth Page.) preacher might well be entitled, "The Many Mlraclea of the Number Seven." When he went to the rescue of the dl tressed Lexington Baptists he preached t twenty-seven persons on tin first Sunday. Arrived In Philadelphia, he found the real membership of the Grace Baptist church to be ninety-seven. The first year seventy-seven new members were received, the third year the membership was In creased by 277; then for five years and three months every Sunday seven persons, no more, no less, were baptized Into the church. The Samaritan hospital started with seven persons five patients, one doctor and one nurse. Seven persona laid th. foundation tor Temple college. They were young men who came to Dr. Conwell and asked him to teach them theology In the evenings. He did so In the church's basement. Of the $760,000 which Dr. Conwell has raised tor the aupport of hla various insti tutions, only $17 has ever been received from another church. Instances are beyond naming wh:re tb.3 favorite numeral of the bible appear in the history of the Temple. In fact seven has cropped out so often and so unexpectedly that Dr. Conwell conferaea that he Is super stitious on this point. "I have come to look upon the appearance of seven as a sign from God that It Is right for me to undertake the thing that I have asked his advice about," he said. "A few weeka ago I was considering an Important financial problem. I prayed to be gu'ded. At the prayer meeting following seven paraons stood up and declared for Christ. The next day I put through the financial deal. If seven had not stood up I would have known that the Lord did not want the step taken "And here la another Instance," the preacher continued. "I wanted a pipe orgtn In the. Temple. It would cost $7,500. The trustees were opposed; said we had.dsbt enough already. I prayed to the Lord. At the next prayer meeting, scarcely before I had flnUhed the Invitation to Join, seven persons sprang up. I went to the trustees. 'Gentlemen,' I ssld, 'we must have that organ. I'll furnish the money for It." So I paid down $1,600 of my own money and give uulce fur iue lemaiuaer. Tub urgau was in stalled. "The first note to fall due was tir $1,500. Three days before it was due, while In tb.3 middle west, I received a letter from my wife telling me that the organ firm had in quired about the note; said It must be met on the date due, as their business Integrity depended on the cancellation of certain debts with the money. I was overwhelmed. Not a cent in sight. I hurried to Phila delphia. I reached here Sunday morning, two hours before church time. I went to the church and with a heavy heart entered the pulpit. Just as I was about to begin the services a woman of the congregation walked to the side of the pulpit. 'My father.' she catd, 'lives In Masslllon, O. He has always admired you and he has sent thla check to help pay for the organ.' I looked at the little piece of paper. It was worth $1,500. "That morning my sermon was the worst that ever came from my pulpit. My brains went wool gathering and I ccught myself constantly repeating: 'The Lord rhowed you the figure 7, why why did you doubt ?' " Dr. Conwell paused a moment. Then he added: "But to me the most remarkable mani festation of the figure 7 occurred when a class from the Princeton Theolog ical seminary came here to investigate the story that for four years seven persons had been converted each week. They, with others, doubted the facta, and wanted to make a test. They came. At the usual time I gave the Invitation. Gradually four persons arose. Then, after a pause, a fifth, and then a sixth. I waited. No one else stood up. The Prlncetoniana looked triumphant. Once more I earnestly, desperately, pleaded for one more, two more, any cum ber, to rise who felt that they needed Christ. And no one arose. I went to the crgan, announced the closing hymn and began playing. Scarcely had we atarted on the second verse when from away down in the congregation a man rushed down the aisle, crying bitterly, and sprang on the platform. He Implored the congrega tion for its prayera. Afterward he told me who he was. He had come down from Rhamokln that day for the express purpose of asking ua to aid him, but when he got In the prayer meeting courage failed him and did not return until my heart had been all but broken." The Prlncetoniana were convinced. Despite his 60 years. Dr. Conwell Is as full of energy aa he was twenty years ago. Hla large frame Is still supple and age haa not put a white hair In hi head. Once, for fourteen yeara, he was so busy that he could not find time to apend a single even ing In his home. He gives the Impression that he could be as strenuous again and still survive and look pleasant. Dean of New York Press The dean of the rural presa of New York atate Is A. C.
