 Professor Buckham, the next speaker,
 quoted President Hadley as saying that poor young men cannot hold up their heads at Yale. He assured his hearers that if the time ever came when poor student in his college should not have the same advantages as the rich he would no longer wish to remain president of the University of Vermont. He greatly deplored, he said. the efforts os some of the larger college presidents in trying to shorten the college course.
 There is a veal stage in all educa-
 tion and there is a beef stage. You never reach the latter until after you
 have spent three years in college" He quoted President Hadley's remark
 that he had been severely criticised and contradicted for his utterances on the
 labor question.
 There are two sides to the labor question:" he said. 'sI feel that the la boring man and the poorer people fight
 ing for the privileges of life deserve the sympathy and defense Of all the other people. The other side of the question was presented when the labor union came into play. The creating of agita- tion by the labor union is harmful to the best interests of society.
 II think tSe labor union is the most dangerous weapon that modern thought has produced Only a few weeks ago we had to get permission in Vermont from the labor union to get people to shovel snow from our sidewalks in or der that we might prevent suspension of business. I think it is time to call a 1 halt"

 OF HIS CRIMES.

Mrs. Sadie Wsnxeif, Hts Sister, Has a
 Long Talk with Him-Desermimsd to
 Give Details Despite she " arning of His Attorney.
 Hamilton, O.. Feb. 27-Mrs. Sadie Wenzell, who came here last night to see her brother, Alfred Knapp, the self confessed multi-murderer, had a long talk with the prisoner in the presence of Sheriff Bisdorff. Others also talked with him and he was asked: .,
 Had you not been arrested. would you not have killed the wife whom you now have in Indianaoolis?"
 T knew that she woke up several times since we were married and founu my hands on her neck when was asleep too. She would wake when grabbed her and wake me and ask me what I meant by taking hold of her neck that way, and I could not tell her why because I was asleep and did not know why T had done it. Last week she woke LID just in time or she might never have woke up at all. I grabbed her so tight and was choking her so that she was nearly gone when she came to and woke me up. I cant see what makes me do that
 The prisoners manner in making this reply was that of a person vaguely speculating over a question which he could not answer.
 In anticipation of Knapp possibly be- ing tried elsewhere he was interviewed to-day on the three cases at Cincinnati He went over each of the murders to which he confessed yesterday, giving minute details and most revolting par tielulars. Tn the case of Mark Eckhart, whom he met at Dayton, he continued to duplicate his third wife. Hannah Goddard, but his cross examination was such that the officers do not think she held Marv's hands while he checked her. The Cincinnati officers say that Knapp appears to be telling the truth about the killing of Mary Eckhart,

The latest estimate places the total
number of apple trees of bearing age
In the United States at something over
2OO.OOO,OO0. This Is nearly three trees
to every person. These trees yield more
than 175,0OO,OOO bushels Not all these
apples are consumed at home, for in
years Of full crop more than 5000, 600
bushels go abroad. Yet. the apples kept
at home are more than two bushels for
every adult and child. We are a nation
of apple eaters. This fact may not be
to our credit, however, when we re-
member that a good part Of all these
apples are Ben Davis and other kinds
that refined and cultivated taste will
not choose for its dessert. Yet probably
half our people never raise an apple:
and of the half who do raise them but
small percentage grows for market:
and Of those who grow for market, only
a part make a profit from the business.
Yet there Is money in pple-growing.-
