   Are Knights Adopting Winchesters?

   Detroit, Mich., Jan. 17.- Among the offices in the old Arcade building on Larned street, partially burned Saturday morning, was that of The Advance and Labor Leaf, an organ of workingmen. In a closet in this office relic hunters found six Winchester repeating rifles and a lot of ammunition. It is thought that the find indicates the existence of a secret military company composed of Knights of Labor. This company is believed to have been organized three years ago, and the purpose is stated as being the instruction of workingmen in the use of the rifles to enable them more easily to gain their rights. It is denied that there are any Anarchists in the company.
