Frances K. W'illunl says:
"Key. Anna Shaw is one of the most
able speakers on the platform either
anioiiK men or women. She has n well
trained mind, quenchless enthusiasm
and that rarest of all dualities pluck.
America docs not contain a more loyal
and devoted adherent of woman's cause.

cultured manner, enlivened by her wit
und captured by her logic." v
On Friday eveainpr the two weeks'
fvaiiKclisitc services at the Second
Presbyterian chureih ,wvre concluded
with the satisfaction that considerable
bcneileial work had been accomplished.
Kev. Charles 10. Robinson's "gospel ad
dresses" have been most interesting
and highly 'appreciated by the hundreds
who attended each evening. Kev. James
McLcod. K. W. l'carsall and others
rendered valuable assistance In con
ducting the services. Mr. Weeden, who
is now so well known in Scranton, also
contributed materially to the success of
the niec tinss by his musical abilities.
(enthusiasm prevailed at the winter
Session of the Kpiscopal Archdeaconry
of Scranton, which was hi id at Wllkes
Jiarre on Monday and Tuesday. The
great feature was the explanation of
the object and work of the Crothcr
liood of St. Andrew, which is increasing
In membership and usefulness through
out the nrehdeaeeiiry. The addresses
ivi'i';' eminently practical and copies
should be distributed anions the mem

Who the Habcs Had Toiisilltls:
When the babes had tonsllitis, O Lord, bill
what a time!
The father of nil poets could not tell It
half In rhyme.
It was hustle for the doctor at 12 o'clock at
nlpht,
And scurry to the drug store before the
morning's light.
Then, baby's pills at 7, and t'other one's
ut x,
Prescriptions next In half un hour, don't
be a minute late.
And don't forget the powders und the Iron
for the blood.
And peptoiml.ls ut eating time to tuke tho
place of food.
And when the darlings waked und cried,
'twas papa walk the lloor.
With twenty pounds on onu arm on the
other llfty more,
And keep the bourn warm all the time,
and don't get in a draft, i
And don't mix up the medicines. Why
didn't I go daft?
With baby's pills at 7. un t'other one's
at 8. .
Prescriptions then In half un hour, don't
he u minute lute.
And don't forget the powders ami tho Iron
for the blood.
And peptonolds ut eating time to take the
place of food.
Tho doctor brought them through all
right, and thank the Lord for that.
And both are strong and rosy now und
both ure getting fill,
lie showed most wondrous skill, I think,
ai doctors often do,
Rut what I mnrvel most at Is that wife
und I lived, too.

"The last time I ever sain Simon Cam

a nhort time before his death. We got
talking about the end appointed to
all men, and I asked him If the pros

There re very dark clouds nhadlng
the Oior-lzon In Knights of Labor circles,
and the threatening forecast points
to duller the complete re-construction
of tlie prominent labor organization or
a most rancorou.H dissension, accompa
nied by, perhaps, the entlr? iblitera
tl.m of the present unti-Powih-rly olll
cials of tlie general executive board.
District Assembly No. 1G Is the pre
mier fonie.ntor and Its example has been
followed, It Is claimed, by about
S7 per cent, of the district assemblies
of tlie Fiiilti'd States and Canada. As
sembly No. 10 is made up of local or
Kunlzaitloiu of the Knights of Labor
of norUieasl'orn Pi iinsylvanla and em
braces the territory covered by Lack
awanna, Luzerne, Wyoming, Susque
hanna, und Wayne counties. Timothy
D. Hayes, of Dickson City, Is district
master workman.
There avt In the neighborhood of
twenty local assemblies In the district
and delegates from each meet every
three months in quarterly convention.
The last convention of District it! was
h. Id In this city on Dec. 18, of last year,
which is -the date of the beginning of
the trouble. In order to understand
what led to .this trouble, it will be ne
cessary to revert to the last national
convention of the Knights hi id at New
Orleans.
The Delegate Was Ignored.
District Assembly No. 18 elected a
delegat.; to tiiat convention uc
cordlng to the rules of the organiza
tion and ho was tilted out with regular
ly signed credentials, expense money,
and a mileage ticket. When he ffot to
New Orleans and presented his pa per J,
he was refused a seat in the convention
on no oilier grounds tihan that ,ho was
a friends of General Master Workman
Pi.wdciiy. These ftatinunts are au
thorized ly Information received from
an executive olllcer of Dis trict Ass. in
ly No. 1(1. It lis said that District As
sembly No. 220 of Chicago elected a
Powdeiiy delegate, but that a nir-mbir
of that assembly, who did not aspire
for delegate at all, was admitted to a
seat and a vote upon credentials that
were forged.
When District Assembly No. 1C met
in tliis city last December, one of the
things that was done was the. refusal
to pay any more per capita tax Into the
funds of the general executive board.
This action was -the result of the denial
of the 'powers that be to allow th dis
trict's delegate a seait in the New Or
leans' convention. The district set up
the sanv claim n the revolutionary
ton fathers. "Taxation without repre
sentation." A tit of re:"dutioni wire
drafted condemning" the present ofliecrs
of the geiTial exifiit I ve board and prom
ising to pay no more per capita tax

Others I ell Into Line.
This determlm 1 stand had the effect
of making ether district assemblies
throughout the I'nlted States and Can
ada tak" up a similar stand, with t'e
result that m..re than eighty of them
passed resolutions condemning the
llayi s-Martin regime and vowing
solemn threats to oust that faction
from root to branch from any coninc.
tion with leadership in the Knights of
Labor. All Liu protesting a.-sembll s
of the country immediately began lo

the outcome was that they agreed to

drew the $1(1) bill if rum his vest pocket
und handed It to him. This unexpected
generosity almost overwhelmed the
minister, but he managed to express
his thanks and said that his congn Ra
tion would remember Mr. Stevens In
their prayers.
"Stevens and his companion walked
a little way and then the great com
moner stopped and said:
" 'Doctor, the ways of the Lord are

call a national conven-tlon, which will
be held at Columbus, O., In the latter
part of February.
The regular annual convention of the
Knights -will not be hold until next
November, and then at Washington, D.
C. The reason that -the Columbus con
vention Is called 1b this: All the dele-g-a-tes
sent there will be In accord with
one another and whatever Is done will
be transacted harmoniously and for the
best Interests of the labor movement.,
There will be enough of delegates there.
It Is ola lined, to represent 83 per cent,
of the -district assemblies of the order,
and ns the majority rules, It Is alleged
that whatever -ilon Is taken at that
convention will 'have the K-aiictiim of Dlie
counts.
They Would I'e Hi le J tint.
A prominent Knight was asked to ex
plain the reason for calling the Colum
bus convention If, is 'it Is asserted,
lit Is done by a majority of tlie district
assemblies. It would be supposed that
the same majority could wait until the
regularly appointed time, next Novem
ber, when the national convention will
meet nit the naitionnl capital. The on-
Hwer to this question was that the earns
state of affairs would ngaln exist as oc
curred at New OrleatiB; all delegates
not in sympuithy with the present rul
ing powers would be denied a seat.
At the Columbus convention It la pro
posed to elect a general executive board
and proceed nt once to take possession
of the property of the Knlg'hts of Labor;
In Philadelphia, eHtimated to be worth
$10,000. Trouble Is anticipated, but It
Is expected (hat tlie courts will sustain
tho action of Mie Columbus convention,
because positive proofs will be collected
to show that the convention was repre
sented by a majority of the assemblies
of tiie Knights.
The numerous friends of ex-Cleneral
Master Workman Powdeiiy will try
and prevail upon him to accept the
first position in the new branch, but It
is given out that Mr. Powdeiiy will
not accept. The person who Is the most
likely one to be chosen for the general
master workmanship Is Factory Inspec

A new system of lighting cars by nn
automatic electrical device has Just
been successfully Introduced. The sim
plicity, certainty und cheapness of the
system have been unreservedly com
mended by prominent railroad officials,
and its prompt adoption by the leading
and more progressive roads Is assured.
The system comprises a small dy
namo und a storage battery, both at
tached to the car truck. A simple
gearing communicates motion from the
axle to the dynamo, nnd the current
from the latter parses through the stor
age battery to the lamps In the car.
This insures a brilliant and uniform Il
lumination of the cur, not only while
In motion, but for at least four hours
after It Is cut out of the train, and It
Is the only independent system of elec
tric car lighting which will maintain
Its efficiency while the car Is motion
less and unconnected wth any motive
power.
The company, which is a New York
concern, has secured full protection for
its Invention by patents In this and
foreign countries, and expects to do a
large business in replacing the un
wholesome and dangerous gas and oil
lamps with electricity. The new sys
tem Is also applicable to the heating of
parlor, boudoir and sleeping cars nnd
day coaches, and can be employed for
cooking purposes III dining und buffet
cars. It is further claimed that for nny
of the uses specilled It Is less expen
