Staff Correspondence The Stat*. Greenville, June 12.?The commencement exercises of Furman university iu the Judson auditorium last night were among the most creditable ever held by the venerable institution. President * Montague presided, attired in his LL. D. robe. The graduates wore the regulation senior robes and r made a fine appearance. During the exercises last night some announcements of great importance to the university were made. It was stated that a plan had been formulated to raise $50,000 additional endowment for the university. Half of this amount has already been secured. Through the efforts nt' Montague the American Baptist Educational society has promised $12,500 on condition that $37,500 additional be secured from other sources. This means that a small portion of the Rockefeller millions will forward the cause of higher education in South Carolina, as John D. Rockefeller is the chief backer of the American Baptist Educational society. A friend of Furman has given $10,000 towards the $37,500. The name of this gentleman has been withheld at his own request but his very modesty almost reveals his identity. This is not the (irst time he has contributed largely of his means as well as his ability and large talents to the building up of Furman university. From other friends $2,500 have been secured in contributions of $500 or less. The total of the contributions thus secured is $25,000. I)r. Montague has undertaken to raise the other $23, 000 and for that nurnose he will t I at once atari one of those hearty, zealous campaigns for which he is noted among the Baptists of South Carolina. Dr. Montague expresses his confidence that ho will soon he able to accomplish this task. That $12,500 has been subscribed without a word of solicitation is a great means of encouragement.
