Salaries to Remain the Same.
THE KNIGHTs ASSEMBLY DECIDES NOT TO MAXI
TIE PROPOSED REDUCTIONS

THE KNIGHrs ASSEMBLY DECIDES NOT TO MAKE
THE PROPOSED REDUCTIONS.
An exciting session of the general assembly
of the Knights of Labor ON the Skefington case
was held at Indianapolis yesterday afternoon.
Skefington was national master workman in
trades assembly No. ZIG, composed of leather
workers, and was charged with characterization
in connection with the shoemakers' str ike in
Cincinnati The sentence imposed on him was
public reprimand by the general master
workman.
It was decided to send representative of the
order to the Paris exposition, and then an hour
and half of the conventions time was devoted
TO considering the secret work of the order
The finance committee, Hugh Cavanaugh
chairman, reported that it had found the meth
DDS of disbursing funds very loose; that bills
had not been countersigned before being paid:
that some officer should be given the veto
power in regard to the expenditure of money,
and under such plan more money would now
be in the treasury, and further commended
that more business-like methods should be es-
tablished. They made no suggestion of any
crookedness, finding all accounts perfectly cor
rect. and the report states that the reductions
already decided upon, by consolidation and re-
duction of officers, would foot up $4,000 The
salaries will remain the same as before Power
Is given to the general secretsry-treasurer to
throw out excessive items from expenditures
BY vote Of SO to 81 it was decided to continue
the salary of 900 to the general master work
man, and the secretary-treasurer will be paid
$4,000 Members of the executive board will
receive - a day and expenses. The report Of
the committee was adopted.

The Houses Work Was Done.

New York Letter in Boston Gazette
heard the other day of certain woman
who was not in what is called society" and
who, good soul, had not ambition that way so
far as she was concerned, but she had daugh-
ter, and she wanted that daughter to make a
good match. What did she do to accomplish
that end? She bought her house in a some
what exclusive neighborhood, furnished in
good style, and set about her to entertain Her
principal guests were men, to be sure and
among those who came was one who had
rubbed elbows with the coaching Set" there
fore he was the most desirable. He admired
the girl, he admired her elegant home; he pro-
posed and was accepted.
grand wedding followed, with a wedding
breakfast and reception at the Homestead"
After the bride and bridegroom set out upon
their journey, the old slipper was carried off
on the coach top, the house was closed, and is
now for sale, and at a sacrifice. Its work is
done, and the good mother has retired to more
modest quarters. L ought to give the street
and number of the house, for it might do as
good work for other mammas with marriageable
daughters; but would not like to betray the
worthy woman who devised the scheme

High Living for a Child.

New York Special to the Philadelphia Press, Nov %
Mrs. Florence Wall, the widow Of Michael
W. Wall, applied to-day to Surrogate Rawson
for an order to require the executors of the
estate to make an additional allowance for the
support OF her six-year-old daughter, who has
a life interest in the estate. The child has an
income of $4,000 year from the estate of her
grandfather. The mother thinks that ia
not sufficient to maintain the little one in the
manner in which she lived when her father
was alive. Ex-Surrogate Calvin, on behalf of
the executors, opposed the application on the
ground that the income from the grandfather
estate was ample for the support of the child
with one-half Of the rent Of the fiat in which
she hved, ~, 700; S25 week for a maid, IS a
week for washing and half of the ESQ expended
upon the table each week. This he character
Hed as an outrageous charge, which was ridic-
motion.

From the Macon (Ga-l Telegraph.

Why He Writes No More.

From the Boston Transcript.
Mrs. Rimes-' George, you do not write any
poetry of late. How does it happen?'
MIR. Rimes-'Well you see, dear, find it
rather discouraging, this counting of the muses..
When wrote on both sides of my paper, the
editors threw my offerings unread into the
waste basket; and then when wrote upon only
one side found they utilized the blank side
