<nliaucipnLa Anqunci.
The statement that the Knights of Labor
are decaying is vigorously denied at gem
eral headquarters of the order on North
Broad street. General Secretary-Treasurer
Hays is sending a statement to all of the
local assemblies which shows that the
membership at the present time is more
than 250, 600. Speaking of them the secre-
tary said yesterday: I'VE are not only in
good condition here, but the order con-
tinues to grow abroad. The work of ex-
tending the organization until the whole
earth is covered with a network of assem-
blies is progressing. During the past week
three charters went TO Scotland and two to
Ireland. while the first New. Zealand as
sembly is 10 be organized at Auckland.
The placing of the grape leaves on tho
master workman's capital was prophetic.
With a steady growth in America and the
order reaching out to other lands, our
friends, the enemy. will have to forego the
pleasure of attending the funeral of the
Knights of Labor several decades vet.
May their patience be equal to the strain,
for hope deferred maketh the heart sick.

stock was paraded around the ring. 1t was

head of horses. Every premium given was
paid in full on the ground before the ex-
hibitor left, and everybody is satisfied with
the success of this, the biggest fair of the
