KNIGHTS OF I.Alton TO MEET.
('nsveatlna AA 111 Hr nominated by
•he Hayes Faeflttss.
rirrmlnghom. Ala . Nov. 12 —The anstual
convention of the Knights of Labor of the
t'nlted Btatea and Canada will be called
to order In this city to-morrow and will
be dominated by the Hayes faction, a split
having occurred In the ranks of the oi
ler since the last convention.
The Htrson wing, which has resorted to
the courts, will take no part In the con
vention.
The split In the order arose over the ef
forts of the executive board to oust Hayes
as secretary anti treasurer. Ho was ex
pelled. but he declared that the board
expelling him was not legal by reason of
the fact that they had previously gore
Into tho courts, thereby disqualifying
themselves for membership under the con
stitution of the order. He therefore had
anew board elected, and Chamberlain
was mode master workman. The original
l-oard elected a successor to Hayes, and
n successor to Chamberlain also, he hav
ing been a member of the old board.
Speaking of the trouble which the
Knights of Labor have had lately Mr
Hayes sabl to-day:
"There Is a mistaken Impression obroad
about the Knights of I-alior We expect
to have a moat harmonious meeting
Every lodge of our organisation, which
sends delegates will be represented In
our meeting except one. The Pittsburg
lodge has concluded to hold on to Mr,
Parsons. They will not have enough men
to hold a meeting."

enough to Work/"
Hivv often tlii'Hp Biffnificimt words art* spoken in our preat
mills, shops, and factorit'H hy the* poor jjirl who haa workt*d
herself to tho poiift where nature can endure no more and
demands a rent! Tho poor sufferer, broken in health, must
stand aside and make room for another.
The foreman says, “ If you are not well enough to work
you must leave, for wo must put someone in your place.”
Standing all day, week in and week out, or sitting in
cramped positions, the poor girl has slowly contracted some
deranged condition of her organic system, which calls a halt
in her progress and demands restoration to health before she
can lie of use to herself or any one else.
To this class of women and girls Mrs. Pink ham proffers
both sympathy and uid. When these distressing weaknesses
and derangements assail you. remember that there is a
remedy for them all. We have on record thousands of such
cases that have been absolutely and permanently cured by
Lydia K. Plnkhaiu’s Vegetable Compound, restoring
to’ vigorous health and lives of usefulness those who have
been previously sorely distressed. Here is one of them.
