County Sunday School Convention

The 9th annual county Sunday school
convention, held at Gobleville last We'd
nesday and Thursday, was one of the
most successful meetings in the history
of the society.
There were about $50 delegates in at
tendance and, doubtless, there would
have been larger number had it not
been for the rainy weather on the second
day.
The program, as published in the
Northerner, was substantially carried
out, and the papers read and addresses
made we're both interesting and profit
able.
With the exception of some changes in
the township vice presidents, the former
officers were re elected, as follows: DR..
w. &. Y. Ferguson of Paw Paw, presi-
dent; Miss Agnes Simmons of Lawrence,
secretary; L. K. Blashfeld of Hartford

An examination shows that all fall
sown wheat is full of insects, both early
and late. This knocks out the theory
that frost will kill the fly, as we have
had two quite hard frosts and one of
them quite freeze before the 20th of
September and much wheat was sown
later than that. The facts are, probably,
that the Hessian fly is as hardy as other
flies and insects and favorable weather
after a frost, with sunny days, is the
occasion of the trouble this fall.

Oskaloosa Ia, Sept. PA head-end
collision occurred at noon Tuesday on
the Belle Plaine & Muchakinock extern
sion, seven miles southeast of this city,
between the stations of Wright and Ii
oga. The trains came together as re-
suit of an error in orders. A passenger
train south-bound, with 40 passengers,
was met by double-header coal train
of % cars, moving at the rate of 60
miles an hour, on time orders to pass
the passenger train at Tioga. The pas
senger engineer saw the approaching
coal train and applied the brakes, and
had the train almost stopped when the
crash came. Two passenger coaches
were knocked 100 yards by the force of
the shock. They remained on the rails,
and none of the 40 passengers were
seriously hurt. The three engines aud
IA cars were demolished, and the wreck
age was piled 40 feet high. Both en-
gineers were killed, also the conductor
of the passenger train and the fireman

HOLLAND DISCARDED.
The Greatest All-Around Athlete in
the State Is Declared to BE
n Professional.

Drake university students were
greatly excited over the action of the
games committee of the Iowa Intercol-
legiate Athletic association in sustain
ing a protest by Iowa college and de-
claring Homer Holland professional.
The protest was filed the morning of
the state field meet, May 26.
Holland is the greatest all-round ath-
lete in the state. He won 30 of brakes
AZ points at the state meet, and the
action of the committee takes the state
cup from Drake and gives it to the state
university. All college exercises were
suspended.
The action of the committee is de-
nounced as unjust. The charge against
Holland is that when Is years old he
once jumped and played ball for money.
Drake claims the charges were not sub
stantiated. Drake has cancelled her

IOWA STATE NEWS
TO HELP A COLLEGE.
The University of Chicago Will Take
darlington Institute Under
Its Fostering Wing.

President Harper, of the University
OF Chicago, spent day in Burlington
in the interest of Burlington Institute
college, which is to certain extent I'M
der the supervision of the Chicago insti-
tuition. He made a proposition to the
board of trustees that if they would
guarantee $4,000 year for three years
the University of Chicago would take
charge of the college here and put it
on substantial, self-paying basis.
The heartiest enthusiasm was dis
played and the amount asked for prac-
tically guaranteed. DR.. Harper was
elected a member of the board of trus-
tees and made president of the execu-
tive committee. His acceptance of
these positions is in the hands of the
trustees and will become a fact as soon
as the amount asked for is actually
guaranteed. The faculty of the college
will be increased by three chairs, mod
ern languages, English and mathe-
mates, at once.
DR.. Harper addressed a large au-
dience in the evening on the subject of
Thinking" He closed his lecture with
talk concerning the local college. He
said the proposition was to make it a
school of technology, which would fill a
gap between the high school and the
university of sophomore year. He said
that as rule scholars graduated from
high schools at the age of 16 or II and
were then sent away to college just at
time when they needed the home in
| f1uence. Burlington people should
make their college such school as
would keep the young folks at home
during the formative phases of their
characters.
