erary of the Trip to the eSouth-They
Have Special Car.

When The brotherhood of st. Andrew ad-
journed their ninth annual convention here
last year it was decided that Louisville,
KY, should be the next place ofmeeting, and
the people of Kentucky's metropolis are now
busy making preparations for the coming
of the religious host which will Invade their
city next Wednesday.
From present indications the coming con-
vention will be the largest In point of num-
bers in the history of the brotherhood. From
the west especially large delegations are
expected, while the East. can be relied on
10 send its usual large quota. The delegates
in this city have not been idle and prepara-
tionswer commenced some time ago.
About fifty delegates, representing twen-
ty-five local chapters, will leave here to-
night on the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad.
and expect to arrive in Louisville the next
day. At Alexandria the delegation will be
re-enforced by The addition of the delegates
from that city, who will for the first time
separate as council from the Washington
organization. .s
IN A SPECIAL CAR.
Mr. John F. Paret, as chairman of the
committee on transportation, has secured
a special car for the Washington and Alex
andria delegates, and every possible com
fort will be afforded them.
In accordance with what is now an es-
tablished custom, delegates to the conven-
ton will provide for their own entertain
ment Most of the Washington delegates
will stop at the Gait House, which has
been selected as headquarters for the Wis
itors.
II is thought that quite fight will be
made at Louisville by several cities To
secure the next convention of the Brother
hood. Pittsburg wants it, and strongly
urged her claims at the last convention in
this city. Buffalo, n. Y, is also desirous
of entertaining the next national conven-
ton of the order. and IL will not be the
fault of her churchmen if, in 1896, the
Brotherhood does not meet on the shores of
Lake Erie. ~r Their invitation is ready.
and is backed by theiuvitation of the Church
mems Club and the resolution of the State
convention of the Brotherhood in New
York. New York city is also said to be
quietly getting into line, So, altogether,
the contest f"reutertaining the Brotherhood
of st. Andrew in 1896 bids fair to he
lively one.

Why Are Women Who Suffer From Diges-

The cause of badness is question
which has a personal interest for many
people In these days when the new man

band The theory OF the baldheaded man
generally is that his exceptionally active
brain has used up the blood supply which
should have nOurished his scalp; but those
whose crop Of hair still stands untouched
