According to Mr.. Henry Clay Cupp,

Prominent among the men who are

Judge Wellhouse has been engaged
since 1915 in raising the luscious Ben

greatest fruit in the world.
Judge Wellhouse began apple culture
a poor man, with practically nothing
but his faith in Kansas soil as pro-
ducer of apples, and his present finan-
cial condition may be judged from the
fact that his last years crop of apples
required for transportation more than
a hundred freight cars.
For number of years prior to 1915
Mr.. Wellhouse had made a careful
study of apple trees and their adapta-
tion to the western prairie soil. He
then had an opportunity to get control

STUDYING THE BIBLE
HOW DWIGHT L. MOODY'S WORK IS
CONTINUED AT NORTHFlELD.

Thousands Annually Gather ON the
Beautiful Campus of Girls school.
Rev. C. G. Morgan, Successor of the
Great ReviyaIist.
For more than twenty years the
Northfield Bible conference, held at the
Northfield Seminary For Girls. founded
by Dwight l.. Moody, has been one Of
the most important religious gatherings
of the summer.
Thousands of people who have heard
Dwight l.. Moody and been Influenced
by his wonderful personality return
year after year to the institution found
ed by the great revivalist for the pur-
pose of Bible study.
The Northfield season begins early in
June and continues through Septem-
ber. Guests come early and remain
later than formerly. Beginning with
the commandments of the Northtield
Seminary For Girls, Bible addresses
for the summer guests are held nearly
every day until the students return
again in September.
The present season has been in many
respects the most important in the his
tory of Northfield. The students con-
ference was the largest ever held, and
the speaking was of high order. The
work done by the students in the
classes was thorough and farreaching
in its results, but the chief feature of
the summer has been the daily ad-
dresses by the Rev. G. Campbell Nor
gan, who fills place entirely his own.
1t is not too much to say that no man,
Mr. Moody excepted, has eXcrted a
stronger influence than Mr.. Morgan.

the directors of the Northtield and
Chicago schools which bear Moody's
name, he came to America to take the
place of the dead leader in the exten-
sion and promotion of Bible study.
Mr.. Morgan's departure from Lon
don, where he occupied the pulpit of
the new court chapel, was made the
occasion of a demonstration in the
City Temple, in which all denomina-
tions took part, and was led by DR..
Joseph Parker.
Rev. Mr.. Morgan is about forty-four
years of age, and in his peculiar field
of work is probably the most able man
of the present day. This field is the
Bible study and Bible teaching work
which D. L. Moody started during the
last few years of his life.
One of the delights Of the visitors
to Northfield is the beautiful situation
of the buildings of the three schools,
The institution was started in 1879 by
Mr. Moody by the purchase of few
acres of barren soil on group Of bare,
sandy hllocks overlooking the valley
of the Connecticut. This was gradu-
ally added to until today it comprises
nearly 100 acres. Today the seminary
surroundings are beautiful with rich
sward and towering trees.
During the session of the Bible con.
ference several meeting are held daily
at which the foremost preachers may
be heard. The meetings in the big
auditorium are under the general
charge Of William r. Moody, the
older son of the evangelist. The
younger son, Paul, who has recently
returned from Europe, where he has
been studying in theological schools, Is
in charge Of the meetings held at Rec
reation hall on Round Top, the hill Oh
which Dwight L. Moody is buried.
The work of managing the institu
tions founded by the evangelist now
rests on the shoulders Of his son W. K
Moody. This entails an enormous
amount of labor. Besides managing
the schools, he must also raise eacl
wear the enormous sum Of money re
uuired for their maintenance. In ad
dition he edits magazine devoted tt
the cause.
To all this is added the management
of the Bible conference, with its thou
sands of visitors, its great corps o.
speakers and the many details incl
dent to providing for a great assem-
blage during three months of the year
The immediate care of the thousands
of guests who attend the conference
falls on Ambert G. Moody, cousin
This difficult task is most satisfac
torily performed. Visitors at North

tiful campus or be provided with quar-
ters which compare favorably witt

ONE KILLED AND A SCORE INJURED
IN A HEAD-ON COLLISION.
Excursion OF Fourteen Coaches

Was Discharging Passengers.

DANBURY, Conn, Oct. 9.-One person
dead and over a score injured is the re-
suit of a head-on collision on the Highland

Hartford Railroad tonight, directly in
front of the station at Sandy Hook.
An excursion train OF fourteen cars
crashed into the regular west-bound train
standing in front of the station discharging
passengers. The engines on both trains
were considerably damaged. The first car
on the excursion train was crushed and
the inside. which was crowded, was a mass
of splinters, broken glass and shrieking,
wounded men and women. Matte Quin-
land, of Naugatuck. aged twenty-five. was
so seriously injured that she died few
minutes later in the station. Hardly a
person In the car escaped injury.
Two of the injured passengers are in a
critical condition. Willie Hamm, of Water
bury, received severe internal injuries and
his spine was injured. Richard Farrar, of
Waterville, had his left arm and leg so
badly crushed that II became necessary to
amputate these members.
The excursion train was in charge of

from the train when 1T was seen that an
accident was inevitable. In doing so Lii
lis was slightly injured. Farrell disap-
peared after the accident and has not been
seen since.

SPEECH BY CHAMBERLAIN.
Colonial Secretary Outlines the Edu-
cation BiII Situation.


BIRMINGHAM, England, Oct. s.-The
much-discussed conference of the Liberal
Unionists which called by Colonial
Secretary Chamberlain to formulate the
attitude of the Birmingham Liberal Union
lists toward the education bill was held here
to-day.
Mr.. Chamberlain presided at the meet
ing and enunciated his views in a long
address He acknowledged that the bill
was not perfect, but said the Liberal Union
lists must not split on that point. He said
he had always been in favor of the govern
ment providing only secular education, but
rightly or wrongly, the majority of the
country required that religious instruction
of some kind be given ii. If the country
could not get what II wanted from Union
list government it would not get it from
the Radical government, which would fol-
low the government it might smash.
Unionists to agree to differ on the COM
plicated points, but to do nothing to assist
the intrigues of those who would hand
over Ireland TO the home rulers, who would
transfer South African problems to the
discretion of pro-Boers, and who would
leave imperial interests in the hands Of
little Englanders and domestic reforms
to the trainers of the Newcastle pro-
gramme. The colonial secretary had several
suggestions amending the educational bill
as to give safe and ample popular con-
tTOl. lie SdlO ne COulu PROMISE, HOWeNcr,
that one thing was definitely certain: name
ly. that the bill would not be withdrawn.
He said the government could not withdraw
1t without tremendous loss of prestige,
and that the only logical alternative to the
acceptance of the bill would be the expen-
diture necessary to replace the existing
denomina tional schools.
In conclusion Mr.. Chamberlain announced
that If the government was defeated on
this bill ii would resign. He warned his
hearers to mark that and to remember the
consequences,
