It was an age when a generation of powerful biblical preachers ended, as leaders such as Christmas Evans (1838), John Elias (1841) and Henry Rees (1869) died. From this point onwards the emphasis in preaching was shifting f ...

Eberhart was born in 1904 in Austin, a small town in southeast Minnesota. He grew up on a 40 acre (162,000 m²) estate called Burr Oaks which has since been partitioned into hundreds of residential lots. He published a volume of poetry called Burr Oaks in 1947 and many of his poems reflected his youth in rural America. Eberhart began college at the University of Minnesota, but following his mother's death in 1921 -- the event that prompted him to begin writing poetry -- he transferred to Dartmouth College. After graduation he w ...

U.S. presidential election 1904 - Campaign. The Democratic decision to abandon their silver plank did not gain them many votes, and the lackluster judge Parker made little headway against Roosevelt, who had already adopted popular reform positions such as increased regulation of the large corporations and conservation of natural resources. Parker carried only the southern states, and the popular Roosevelt won the most decisive victory since Reconstruction. See also:
