KNIGHTS or cOLUMBUs.

The biennial convention of the nation
la association Of the knights of Column
bus will convene in this city Tuesday,
March 7. Slxty-fve delegates will at
tend, representing orders from all parts
of the United States. from as far south
as Richmond, Va northward to Mon
treal, Canada, and as far west as St.
Paul. The session will last two days,
during which time officers for two years
will be elected, reports for 1898 will be
submitted. and such legislation as the
past year has warranted will be acted
upon. Under this latter head the prin-
cipal question is one that will evoke
much discussion and some vigorous con-
tention. 1t deals with the rights of in
sured members to control the money Of
the order, to the exclusion Of the unin-
sured or associate members. The for
mer's claim is that they have paid it all
in, and therefore they want to have the
management Of it.
The other side Of the question will be
taken up by the social or associate
members, who demand equal rights in
the association in face of the insured
members claim that they do not pay for
them.
The outcome Of the discussion is
looked forward to with much interest by
members Of the order all over the coun-
try. The order at present stands finan-
cially among the best. It's net surplus
in reserve and death benefit fund is
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Representing this city as delegates
are c. T. Drlscoll, William M. Geary,
John I. Kerrgan, DR.. OConnell and
Daniel Colwell. These gentlemen are
the incorporators of the association,
forming the nucleus of the nation coun-
