Bitter Feeling Exists.


 Considerable bitterness between the two factions of the Knights of Labor is man. ifested by the delegates to the conventions. While each side is more or less guarded in the expressions that are intended for pub lication, still the undercurrent of feeling will crop out occasionally. Each side claims that the other has been expelled from the order and therefore has no right to participate in any convention of the tional body.
 In discussing the Parsons faction last night delegate to the Hayes convention said:
 Many of the men who have been placed on committees by the Parsons faction are not in the city; some of them are 1900 miles away from Birmingham. Calvin of Albany, N. Y, is not In the city; the representative from local assembly 300 is not here; neither is P. J. Daly of New York. Thomas C. Kert of Missouri has not come to Birmingham. These are but a few of the many that might be named They give out the name of from the local at Cleveland, O., when there is no local there, and has not been in years. There is no district assembly 46 at Buffalo, nor 75 at Brooklyn. The last named district lapsed, and it's works are in the general office at Washington. District assembly 15 is in Florida, and not at Mon treal, Canada. This is evidence that the men are bostering up their cause fictitious ly in order to keep themselves, before the public and for its effect on the courts. There are only about seven men attending the Parsons convention who were ever identified with the order, and they have been expelled.

The two conventions of the Knights of Baobr convened yesterday morning, but aside from the adoption of a few resolu- tions by each, only routine matters were considered. The Hayes convention is hold ing it's sessions in Magnolia Hall, in Third avenue, between Twentieth and Twenty first streets and the Parsons convention is meeting in Engineers Hall, Nineteenth street, between Second and Third avenues.
 The Hayes convention yesterday adopted resolutions condemning the industrial com- mission, denouncing contract labor and the convict system in the South. and pro- testing against any increase in the stand ing army of the United States.
 The Parsons convention adopted resolu- tions denouncing Simon Burns of Pitts burg, Pa, member of the executive board of the Hayes wing, for advertising for non union men to take the place of union men who were at the time on a strike; removing the disabilities placed on former General Master Workman T. V. Powderly by the Hayes faction, and endorsing the action of the general officers elected at Boston in their efforts to secure control of the prop erty of the organization
 The Hayes Convention.
 The Hayes convention met in Magnolia Hall yesterday morning. Several commit- tee reports were submitted, but no final action was taken on any very important matters. Several resolutions were adopted, the most important of which were in sub stance as follows:
 Conforming the methods of the indus trial commission in the alleged suppress Of faI I1aFAr and substituting therefor other evidence. The resolution declared that the commission had suppressed testimony which had been given before it and gave out other testi mony which it preferred to go before the public. The resolution further declared that the commission had stated that it had the right to edit such information as it gave out. The resolution declares that the commission has not done that for which it was created.
 Another resolution denounced contract labor, and called attention to the convict system in several states. It called atten- ton to the fact that convicts bound in chains, are used for cleaning the streets of Birmingham. It declares that convict labor comes in competition with free labor and can have no good results. The resolution declares that the custom of chaining victs will not inspire them to try to do bet ter for themselves when they are set free, and can have no good effect on the pub lie.
 Another resolution protests against any increase in the standing army of the United States. Copies of this resolution will be forwarded over the country and delega- tons will be appointed to wait upon mem- bers of Congress to protest against such increase.

There is very handsome young
woman in Washington, rather we'll
known in art circles, who had the mis-
fortune to fall downstairs a few years
ago, so badly fracturing one of her
knees that the limb had to be am
putated. The young woman, of course,
walks with the aid of crutches. She
is not the least sensitive about the
matter, and she doesn't mind inform
ing properly introduced people of the
nature of the accident which manned
her. She has set a little limit. how
ever, and she was compelled TO use
1t one afternoon last week. She got
into an f street car, bound for the
Hill, and found herself in the same
seat with sharp-eyed woman, who
seemed to take a whole lot of interest
in her and her crutches. She scrutin-
lied the young woman's face carefully
for couple of minutes, then turned
her attention to the workmanship of
the crutches, which she took the lib
erty to handle curiously. Then she
looked at the young woman over again
and leaned over to her.

ANOTHER LEGEND EXPLODED.

Many persons will be concerned to
near that the traditional story of
Count Ugolino's cannibalistic repasts
on his two children and two grand
children stands in danger of being
shown up as nothing more than an ar
tistic but grim allegory. Readers OF
the Inferno" will remember that in
the tenth circle Dante and Virgil found
Count Ugolino munching the Uranium
of Archbishop Ruggieri. The legend
was that the latter, a traitor himself.
caused Ugolino, who was another of
the same, to be bricked up in the Hun
ger tower of Pisa, together with his
offspring. and then dropped the keys
of the cell into the Arno, in order that
no help might be forthcoming to the
prisoners.
Hundreds Of pictures have been
painted and countless sonnets have
been written on the supposition that
the unfortunate count prolonged his
own days at the expense of his chill
dren and grandchildren, but it must
be admitted that neither Dante nor
tradition gives direct encouragement
to such an idea. All that the Italian
says is: Then hunger did what sor-
row could not do" in describing the
death of the unfortunate Ugolino and
on these words a cannibalistic theory
has been founded
But recent excavations made in the
monastery of st. Francis at Pisa. of
which the Hunger tower once formed
part have disclosed the remains of
what are supposed to be Count Ugo-
limo, his children and grandchildren,
all intact, without a trace of the in
human feast which was alleged to
have taken place, and this discovery,
which is causing considerable commo-
ton among Italian men of letters, not
only puts an end to a poetic and artis-
tic fiction, but also discredts the story
that the bones of the count and his
progeny were removed to Florence. In
the course of years fact and gossip are
apt to get mixed up, but if the dis
coveries at Pisa prove authentic many
people will be relieved or a nightmare,
while the poetic genius of Dante re-
mains unmpaired
