o fPT.Tl ? n AT ATT A HATT.V TIT ? ! ? . WInVR4HAV lllinFTAlV 1 IflOfl PERSISTED IN PARTAKING Park Avcnno United Presbyterian Ohuroh in a Novel Suit. MRS. KINCAID WOULD HAVE COMMUNION $ lie I * Arrrnteil InCnnaninrncn on n Warrant Hnrorn Out by Klilcr II. W. SimiilillnR nd ArrnlRiinl In Iliu I'ollcu Court for DlAttirlmncc. Tlicrc Is n rather odd complication exist ing within the religious contlnos of the Park Avcnuo United Presbyterian church , and It hns resulted In the arrest of Mrs. James W. ICincnld on the charge of disturbing n relig ious meeting. Huhlml the charge , the pe culiar story of the alleged disturbance Is one calculated to puzzlu the judicial gray matter ns to Its proper adjudication. The complainant In the case is IClder H. W. Spauldlngof the religious body. The complaint alleges that Mrs. Klncaid on Sunday went forward to the communion table and partook of the wine and bread , although she Is not a member of the church. The case was continued by Judge Ucrka In tile police court until February 7. Uoth Mr. and Mrs. Klncaid say it is a wvll defined cuso of persecution and hint that ftlthy lucer has attractions for certain people so strong that the golden rule is read by them "do others or they will do you. " One Slilo of the Story. On the other hand , the prosecution goes back'in holding up its side of the story to 18111and says-Unit in a suit for damages in which Mr. and Mrs. Klncaid were defend ants , perjury was committed by them , re sulting , it is claimed , In a trial by the church Jiml Mrs. ICIncaid's disbarment. At the time the defendants In the damage suit both swore that Mrs. Klncaid was the main support of the family , ns she. had property paying rentals. It was alleged that the property referred to really belonged to Mr. Kiucaid , and in June , 18'Jl. both were summoned to appear before the church board to answer the charge of per jury. Mr. Kim-aid avers ho did so. but a consideration of the charges was postponed , mid have never been called up for hearlirg. In thu menu time both husband and wife occu pied the family new ns usual. On Sunday Mrs. Kincaid partook of com munion , in despite of the objections of the ciders , and was accordingly arrested. The lady says she did so because she believed she was still a member of the church and was not hindered by any one. The ofilccrs of the church assert that the charges were regularly investigated by the session and Mrs. Kincaid \vas found guilty and suspended from membership in the church , kotwlth- standim ; the verdict she continued to insist upon partaking of the communion in spite of the session. limlituil mi llrliiR Served. Sometime ago a complaint was Hied against her in police court , it Is alleged , hut she promised not to repeat the ollcnse , and the action was withdrawn. Last Sunday she was present at the com munion and insisted on being served with the bread and wine , and the ciders thought It was about time to assert them selves. And thcro is yet another story to the effect that the prosecution arises from a business dispute between Mr. Kincaid and Mr. .1. T. Matthews. The latter is an elder ami has much influence in the church. Ac cording to Mrs. Kincaid , her husband holds some papers of which the elder would like to get possession , and which are claimed by both men. Whether Mr. Matthews induced Mr. Spauldlnj. , who Is secretary of the ses sion , to take any steps in having the warrant sworn out is a question as yet undetermined. Hccrrtnry Kmulillnj'n | Account. Mr. II. W. Spauldlng , secretary of the board of trustees of the church ( yesterday afternoon said : "I have nothing at all to say about the matter. When the case comes up for trial I will say my little say , and not be fore. " Allttloblt of urging finally induced the church secretary to.umko this statement of the case : "Tho Kincalds had due notice of the trial , nnd were also informed of the decision reached by the session. The records of the church will boar mo out In these statements. They had every opportunity given them to como before the session and set themselves right , but neglected to do so , and now wo proposo.to show what wo tan do. Mrs. Km- caltl was told to remain away from commun ion , and was notified a week ago that if she insisted upon disturbing us wo would take measures to prevent a recurrence. " "Did Mrs. Klncaid raise any disturbance While in the churcn or at the altar ? " asked the rc | > ortcr. " \V H , no , " replied Mr. Spauldlng. "Then HOW can you charge her with dis turbance i" was the next question. A looit of pity and contempt for the re porter's ignorance spread over the grocery- man's features , and after hesitating a moment he said : l > Wo will show at the trial how she disturbed us. Wasn't her presence there , after she had been told to stay away , n disturbance ? " And the interview was at an end. WMiCH to Keep It Secret. nov. J. A. Henderson , pastor of the Park Avenue United Presbyterian church , was called upon. Ho said : i "I decline to say anything about the case , although I could tell you everything In con- iioqtlon with the matter. I don't conswer it my plaeo to do so , neither do I consider it the tmslness of the press to make such in quiries. The records of our church will show what action was taken'In the Klncaid case. " "Can the records bo seen ? " was asked. "Certainly not , sir. The church records arc for the trustees only , and even members of the church cannot have access to them , as they contain some notations which it would I not do to make public. " The pastor declined to say anything more about the cuso. .Mm. Klnralil'K Statement. Mrs. Klncaid was seen at her residence nnd asked for a statement. She denied hav ing made any disturbances in the church and 1 nlso said that she had never been told not to partake of the communion. "Tho pastor Invited all to como forward , " she said , "and I went quietly along with the j I rest , ate of the bread , drank of the wine and departed , " Continuing Mrs. Kincaid said : "I was asked oncoif I would admit the charges tiled against mo and I said 1 could not without seeing the papers. These they always re fused to produce and as nothing more was ever said about the matter I supposed that thocasohadlx.'cn dropped and that I was still a member In good standing.

Two saloonkeepers who are possessors of worthless Hitchcock guarantees are In a peck.of trouble. They have been ordered to close their places ot business by the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners. They are F. Plnzcnschnm , HO-9 Hamilton , and John Wallanz , who conducts two places , ono at 1IIS ! I.cavenworth and another at Iff- ! ) Pierce street. | Yesterday Sergeant Shoup was detailed to call upon the two patrons of the guaranty Fake Factory and order them , to eloso up J until they had secured licenses to sell liquor. When the olllcer dropped In on John Wai- Ian/ and explained his mission that gentle man went into a rage. He gave expression to his feelings and threatened dire tilings unless Hitchcock made good the guaranty ho had received when ho advertised his ap plications for liquor licenses In the World- Herald. "Hitchcock promised to secure mo a license and If I have to eloso my doors ho has to pay mo so much for every day my place is not permitted to run , " exclaimed the irate Mr. Wallanz and ho lost no tlmo in going in search of the giver of guarantees. Wallanz and Pinzcnscham were denied licenses by the Ixjard , because they had not acted in good faith in placing their adver tisements In the World-Herald. Wallanz has appealed from the decision of the board to the district court and ho expected to bo permitted to continue his business unmo lested until the decision of the court was made known. The license board is not per mitting any such flagrant violations of law to exist and from this date no saloonkeeper can continue in business unless a license duly applied for nnd issued is in his posses sion. sion.A A special meeting of the license board was held yesterday afternoon. A saloon license was Issued to Henry Hornbcrger , 623 South Sixteenth street , and druggist permits to the Alee itiPcnfold company , 114 South Fifteenth street and M. A. Dillon , 1001 Howard street. Hut one or two more applications nro to bo acted upon. The total number of saloon licenses issued to date is 210 and druggists' permits seventy-two. What folly ! To bo without Beecham's pills. UNION PRINTERS CALLED OUT. Onlci'ccl to l.cuvo Tliclr discs lit tlio Hues C'oinpiiny'H Kstulillslimcnt. The Typographical union has undertaken to whip Into line the only norjnion print ing office in Omaha , and on Monday evening all the union printers employed by the Kecs company left their cases. The shop employed ten men , six of whom were members of the union , the remainder being outside the pale. According to the statement of Frank A. Kennedy , who represents the union , the walkout may last a week or a year. "We have nothing to lose , " said Mr. Ken nedy , wliilo Mr. Hees has everything at stake. " Among the nonunion men are the fore man and assistant foreman. The union men say that "tho dllllculty dates back a year and a half ago , when the big trouble in the printing trade took place over the adoption of the then new 8-hour law. Up to that time Hees' was a union shop , but during that struggle ho hired nonunion men and lias stuck to them ever since. The foreman , C. W. Lowe , is particularly obnoxious to us as we have positive proof that ho acts as a procurer for scab labor ' and ships non union men for a consideration to all points whenever thcro are local strikes. For this reason a bitter feeling exists against him. not among us alone , but , nlso throughout all organized labor which Is well posted as to his carryinps on. " The action of the union was taken as a re sult of a determination to protect the firms employing union help. Mr. Keea says for his part that ho will not bo coerced , and says that the newspaper printers dominate those employed In Job otllccs. * - To tlio Headers of tlio Omnliii Tribune !

" NO h MORE CROWDS TO CALL ON THE KIDS | rulilln Curiosity Mint Content IMclf with tlio rrorroilliiK" In Open Court -MnlRO Hcotl Hears tlinCounnvl In tlio Cnso All lny. It will bo some days before the Uusscll children know whether they go out Into the I world with their father , their mothev , or I with strangers , as the end of the battle for their possession is not yet in sight. Yesterday the case was called before Judge Scott of the district court on tin appli cation for an Injunction to restrain the mother from removing them from the county of Douglas. For once the llttlo things wore not brought Into the court room , nor was Mrs. Cora Emeluth , the woman who has taken such an Interest in the case , an at tendant. There was any amount of sparring for points , and as a result the children were left in the custody of Sheriff Bennett and hearing continued until next Monday morn ing , that the respective parties may present affidavits and counter affidavits as to what they can prove. The attorney for HusselL complained that since the sheriff had hail the children , crowds of people who had no interest in the outcome of the case had been permitted to see the little boy nnd the girl. Ho declared that many of these people had tried to influence the children against their father. Will lliivcno At ore Levers. Judge Scott listened and made nn order that until the final dlsiwsltion of the case , only the father and the mother should bo allowed to see nnd converse with vho two little ones who arc the bono of contention. Mr. Halllgan. who appeared for Mrs. Hus- scll. said that such an order was perfectly satisfactory to his client , and then the order went forth. At this point Mr. Halllgan took occasion to inform the court that during the past six months the iiilluenco , that had surrounded the children had been such that they had been brought to a point where , in speaking of their mother , t hey would refer tohcr as "that Uusscll woman. " "Mrs. Hussell" and "that woman. " Judge Scott declared that It was a pity and that ho hoped that the father and mother would patch up their differences and llvo together again. Russell's attorney was of the opinion that that was ono of the impossibilities , as the mat tcr had gone too far to effect any recon ciliation. In the most positive terms Judge Scott stated that the children could not bo taken out of the Jurisdiction of the court until it had been shown that ono or the other of the parents were proper persons to have the custody of the babes. "For , " said lie , "now is the time that they are forming their habits of life and if I sent them out among bad influences I should feel that I was directly responsible for their downfall. " An agreement is pending and has been nearly reached by which the divorce case will bo taken up and tried next week , or if not then , during tiie early part of the term. In 1 this case the parties have been allowed time to file their affidavits and today each side will lllo a dozen or more , each of which will charge domestic unfaithfulness. Mr. Hunscll's Explanation. Hussell still adheres to the opinion that the public in 1ml lias been poisoned against hint and Mrs. Emeluth and that when all of the facts como out his linen and that of the woman will bo washed as white as snow. Ho states that the fa < ! ts have , been garbled and that the report that Mrs. Emcluth itrqw' a revolver on the two deputies who went out after the chil dren Is absolutely false. He says that they drove up to the house and after pounding upon the door they told Mrs. Emeluth that they had some papers to serve. She told them to put them under the door nnd that she would get them. Instead of doing this they pounded around until the door was opened , after which she took the documents. Hussoll afllrms that the men did not tell this woman that they wore officers , but merely stated that they were after the children. When she heard the statement she simply tried to protect the children , as she thought that the two men were intending to steal them ; but in all of the protecting she did not draw a revolver. Stick to Their Story. Both of the officers tell the same story and give Mr. Hussell the Ho direct. They state that as soon as they knocked at the door they told Mrs. Emcluth they wore olllccrs ; that they had the papers ordering the chil dren turned over to them. They say that at that tiniCwtho door was partially open and and that Mrs. Emeluth tried to eloso It , but that she could not as they were pushing it open. Then she ordered them out of the house , using profane and obscene language. Her next moVe , they both declare , was to rush to a small stand , grab and cock a re volver , which she was in the act of pointing at them when it was wrenched from her hand. 11AUI < V1IKOKEN UP.

Should Thomas Cunningham hold together until the courts got around to the trial of his case , ho will attempt to recover the sum of $20,000 , from the Burlington road. Ho has sued the company for that amount nnd his attorneys have filed a lien for Just half of that amount. Cunningham alleges that last spring ho went railroading for the Burlington on the Black Hills lino. At the time of thoaccldcut which sent him to the hospital , a complete wreck , ho was working on the section near the llttlo town of Mlnnckahta. Ono warm spring day the foreman of the section gang sent him down the roau on a hand car. As the machine was moving along at a good rate of speed , it came in collision with a freight train. There were no injuries sustained hy the train , but tlio hand car was knocked Into smithereens and when Thomas was picked from the ditch , his injuries invoiced like this ; Ono broken let ; , ono fractured thigh bone , 0110 dislocated spine , ono broken breast bone , ono dislocated hip , three broken ribs , ono broken arm and fourteen flesh wounds.
