A Itcntiino of Interesting Clitircli
News Collected In tlio Various
tliliiK CoiiKrcijatioiig
of tlio City.
In every religious denomination iho all-
Important problem Is , how to Inspire new Ufo
and energy into the membership , and how to
reach these who nro without tlio palo of tlio
churcti nnd interest thc'in lu spiritual things ,
As might bo supposed , each denomination
has Its own peculiar methods of accomplish-
\t\K \ \ this Important work or attempting to
accomplish it , at Inast. Tliero was a tlmo
when some denominations did not believe In
special efforts ot this kind , but experience
teems to have proven that tbo spec ! ill seasons
of worship nnd supplication are Invariably
attended by good results , providing these
who profess to bo Christians cuter the work
In the proper spirit.
Dean Gardner of tbo Episcopal church , nnd
dean of tbo Trinity cathedral , lias hndconsld
erablo oxpcricnco In special sessions on
"missions" of religious work , and has met
with marked success , both lu New York
s Into and In Nebraska.
The following outline and description of
the method of conducting a "mission" will
bo interesting to every Christian worker.
This is intended ns an outline for a mission
suitable for nny country church , nnd shown
that these special efforts may bo conducted
with as grcatn degree of success In tliosmaller
parishes as in the largo city churches. The
following Is the order of exercises adopted nt
the "mission" which Iean Gardner held
week before last at Crete. Speaking of the
! W mission the dean sild :
"The inlsoslu In Crete was so remarkable
in mnny respects that it deserves special
mention. First , the present rector Is u man
of very enthusiastic methods and earnest de-
, , votlon. A year nnd a half of persistent effort -
- fort had brought the parish in Crete , ns ono
of the wardens expressed it , 'out of tlio
graves into now llfo and power.1 Then n
year ago Mr. Braily conducted an octavo of
preaching services on consecutive evenings ,
arousing and sustaining nn almost intense
religious fervor. Subsequently iv vcr.y largo
class was presented for continuation , nnd nil
lines of church work were occupied by bands
of Christian workers. When , therefore , I
was remlndedof my promise , made long ngo
to conduct n mission at Crete , I llrst felt that
a 'mission' ' was not needed. And certainly ;
for tlio purpose of merely arousing religious
Interest , it was not needed. Hut upon second
end thought , I determined to accept the op
portunity and to bold the mission for the sec
ondary but no less important purpose of
deepening the spiritual life.
"The sermons , addresses and Instructions
wcro planned with this object in view. The
following scheme of services were carried
out : Holy communion each morning at 7-15 :
o'clock ; morning prayer at 10:00 : o'clock.wlth
an instruction on The Church of the Living
God , ' its origin , structure , object and alms ,
ltd ministry , worslup and sacramental teach
ings."A
"A 1,4:45 : p.m. a brief sorvleo with an ad
dress , during the llrst half of the week , on
some of the moral characteristics which fitted
tbo Virgin Mary to ho the mother of Christ.
During thu last days of the mission the sub
jects were domestic virtues , such as cheer
fulness , quietness and confluence , sincerity.
Atthoovunlng services the subjects treated
wcro : 'Jesus , the Author anil Finisher of
Our Faith ; ' 'Not Knowing the Things That
Belong to Our Peace. ' * * *
'Hecoiving with Meekness the En crafted
Word1 ; Itonciitunco1 ; 'Tho Crui-illxlon ; '
. 'Hearing and Keeping the Word ; ' 'Decision ' ; '
Heaven thu Heart's True Homo at Last. '
"Sunday afternoon a meeting was held for
wen only , when the church was crowded.
Ministers of all denominations wcro present.
The address was on personal purity.
"Wednesday morning an address wns mndo
before the faculty und students of Doauo
COllC-gO.
"Tho attendance throughout the mission
wcs excellent. Atthonlghtscrvicothochurch
was always tilled. Ono night all the standing
room was utilized , and another nlglit a great
many people could not Hnd admission. A
very pleasant and profitable feature of the
mission wns tbo answering of questions ,
which were uskcd through a question box at
" < ythu door. Among the questions asked wcro
( - tUp following : 'Why wo bow at tlio name of
Jesus -'Why tlic clersy of the church wear
a distinctive dress ; ' "i'no real tncnnlngof the
word "hell" in the creed ; ' 'Why docs tbo
church fail to reach the masses i1 'Why is the
Episcopal church so exclusive ! ' 'What posi
tion must a Christian take regarding amuse
ments ! ' etc.
"An after meeting was held each ovenlntr ,
to which nearly the whole congregation re-
mnlncil. The subjects discussed wore rover-
cnce , prayer , holy communion , deflnltcncss ,
proper use of tlio pastoral relation. A pe-
culh.r adjunct of this ns of all missions which
I ha\o conducted Is a resolve card , mndo out
In duplicate form , half of which Is kept by
thu individual and the other half given to the
pastor ,
"Suggestions arc printed on the card and
blank places are loft for special resolutions.
"During the mission upwards of a hundred 1
resolutions were thus made. 1 noticed fifteen
resolutions on the part of young men nnd
others to abstain entirely from Intoxicating
drinks.
"Many resolved to establish family prayers ,
others to read the bible each day , , others tc
receive , with duo preparation , the holy com
munion ut least once n month. "Others to say
grace before each meal anil many to seek for
Instruction nnd holy baptism or confirmation ,
A fonturo of the mission which was not de
veloped 03 fully as it might have boon was
"requests for prayer. " But in view of what ,
under God's blessing , was accomplished the
mission may bo pronounced a great success.
"It remains for us to refer to the most re
markable sorvleo of nil the scries , viz. , the
closing of the holy communion early Monday
morning , The church on this particular
morning was not suQlclontly warm , so the
i people asscmblcdln the rectory of the church ,
They llllcd the parlor , library nnd study ,
The rector ttatcd that 03 per cent of all the
available communicants of the parish'were
present. All this in a parish where the }
-bad never had an early celebration before
this mission. To have a correspondingly
largo attendance at holy communion In
Omnlia wo should need to 1111 a building
twice the slzo of the cathedral full of people.
May God's ' blessing rust upon priest anil

THEY CANNOT BE EXPELLED ,
Judge Waicly Holds a Man Maj Belong to

YOUNG BUT PROSPEROUS ORGANIZATION ,
History of ttio niso mill Progress of
tlioTcnmstcr' Union mill Wlmt It
Hopes to Accoiiipllnh for
Its Members.
The decision handed down by Judge Wake-
ley a few days ngo In the cnso of Andrew
Dow , Hugh Stockman , Thomas Ryan and
other members of the international Brother
hood of Machinery Molders of North Amer
ica against James U. Young , president ;
Thomas Bolan , secretary , nnd the other mem
bers of Iron Moldcrs' union No. 100 of Omaha
is of moro thnn usual Interest not only to the
labor organizations of this city , bu ; of the
country nt largo ,
On Juno 7,18S.'I , , a convention of iron mold
crs was called to meet nt Detroit , Mich. , for
the purpose of organizing a society to bring
together the Iron rnolders of the United
States. After being In session several days
trie body adopted n constitution nnd by-laws.
This was the parent association , and as soon
ns the members relumed to tholr homes they
commenced the work of organizing branches
in their respective towns. In a few months
the International brotherhood boasted of sev
eral thousand members , scattered about the
country , all working for one object the ex
tension of thu union.
Out of this society grew union No. 100 of
Omahn , of which James H , Young was
elected president nnd Thomas Bolnn secre
tary. This union , like most of thootticrs , '
grow rapidly and soon had a membership of
100 men who were employed in the Union
1'aclllc shops nnd the private foundries. A
few months after this union got in working
order a number of its members jo'ned ' the
National Brotherhood of Machine Molders
of North America , an order formed for the
purpose of maintaining a fair scale of wages
and [ elevating Iron moldcrs in the social
scale of life. From the start this orgnniza-
tion was antagonized by the remaining mem
bers of union 1'JO ' and other local unions.
Notwithstanding this opposition all of the
unions grew and to the public there was no
sign of disruption until November 18 , when n
number of the ineinncr.4 of the international
brotherhood joined In n petition asking Judge
Wakcley to restrain local union 1'JO ' from expelling -
polling them from Its order. This brought
out the fact that almost from the
inception of the unions thcro had been u bit
ter light , all brought about on account of the
members of 1'JO having joined the national
brotherhood. Charges of partiality were
mndo and It was claimed that on November 0
union 1'JO hold a meeting ut which the follow
ing resolution was adopted :
Kosolvcd , That all members of tills union
who have had cards in the brotherhood have
until the next meeting to withdraw.
Thcro wcro any number of members holdIng -
Ing cirds , and talcing this for a motive of ex
pulsion they called n meeting and decided to
apply fora restraining order to prevent action
which would bo taken on November 'J9. On
November IS the order was granted and the
case set for bearing November 22. At that
time representatives from both unions ap
pcured before Judge Wakcley , who after Us
toning to the testimony ordered the injunc
tion made permanent. This placed the mem
hers in thu same relative standing us bnforo
the trouble occurred. The members who were
to Have been expelled state that they have
violated none of the provisions of cither char
ters nnd were in perfect harmoav. though
they do claim that the old and exclusive mem
bers of 1UO , who are known as "lied Card"
men , refused to work with them In many instances -
stances , and upon ono occasion n foreman
told them they must quit work or leave the
brotherhood. The point that has been set
tled by the injunction Is whether or not a
member of one union can bccumo a member
of another , wnen the objects of the latter are
riot antagonistic to those of the former. Re
garding the by-laws of the two factions , the

The Tcnnisters' Union.
Although organized loss tfxafa six months
ngo , the Teamsters' ' assembly , No. 2230 , is
one of tlio strongest in the cty } , nnd now
boasts of a membership of nearly two him-
drcd owners of teams. ' ' '
Last spring , a few owncri mot In a little
room nt South Sixteenth and Ylnton streets
to discuss the advisability of organizing an
union. Sotno of these present favored the
plan , whllo others opposed It , arguing that
teamsters would not stand by 0110 another
nnd thus nothing would ba accomplished ,
The lenders , W. J , Smith , A. Miller. H. O.
Clark nnd A B. Hammond were not dlscour-
ngcd , but called nnothnr meeting nt which
time the organization was completed nnd
chartered as a Knights of Labor assembly.
As soon as thto was accomplished , the gen
tlemen who were instrumental In organizing
the assembly commenced to canvass lor
members nnd in n few weeks the list was
swelled to two hundred. Prior to this time ,
the meetings had been held in dray ofllces ,
barna and sheds , but with the magnificent
membership , it was decided to secure hotter
quarters and Pythian hall at Fourteenth nnd
Douglas was rented , where the meeting ! are
now hold each Saturday night ,
Altitiy Imvo supposed that the object of this
association was to enforce patrons into pay
ing oxliorbltant prices for carting goods and
merchandise from ono pnrtof the city to an
other , but this was a great mistake. Prior
to this season , the city bus been infested
with hundreds of railroaders nud other grad
ers , who , after finishing the season's
came to Omaha and going Into the outskirts
of thu city pitched tholr tents and then went
upon the streets to compete with the resi
dent team-owners la thodraylng business.
The owners of teams lu the city realized
that this was taking the bread from the
mouths of their families nnd banded to
gether for protection. So well have they nc-
coinpllshcd their purnoso that , whllo as
many as usual of these migratorv teamsters
are In the city , not one of them dares to ap
pear upon the streets to ask for patronage ,
owing to mi ordinance that thu assembly has
succeeded in working through the council.
Since accomplishing what they undertook ,
these hard-working teamsters of Omaha have
turned their attention to other matters. They
have gathered together a library of nearly
two hundred carefully selected volumes , nnd
each Saturday night , after transacting the
routine lodge business , several hours ore
spent in rending nnu discussing points of general
oral interest.

Dim shadows in the comers hide ;
Thu glimmering Inn tern's rays are shed ,
Where ono youne lamb just lifts Its head ,
Then huddle * against his mother's sido.
Strange silence tingles ln.thc , air ;
Through the half-open door n bar
Of light from ono low hanging star
Touches a baby's radiant luiir
No sound the mother kneeling , lays
Her check against the littlu face.
O human love ! O hcuvouly grace I
Ages of silence end tonight ;
i'ncn to the long expectant earth
Glad angels como to greet his birth
In burst of miibic , love nud light.
