Levy's court charging him with selling liquor without a license on Labor Hay at Syndicate park. Mr. Mies Is agent for the South Omaha brewery. John Van Wle swore out the complaint Van Wle has been aftir the brewery for some time. Ho and Biles fell out over the payment of the license for a saloon that Van Wle was running.

FALL RIVER , Mai > s , Sept. 15 The spin ners and weavers' associations both held crowded meetings this afternoon , and as a result 3S.OOO textile operatives ot this city are practically on strike. The spinners held a special general meeting In Cnrrollton hall and voted to strll.c. The executive committee recommended that the strike allowance bo reduced from 35 to Jl per week , nnd after the second week to $3 , until further action be taken. The weavers' association nlso held a big meeting this morning. The weavers voted to continue the vacation until the old wages ure restored , but as they refused to go to work under the present rates they are virtually on a strike. There was no debate at the meeting. The recommendation of the textile amalgamated committee that nil operatives keep away should nn nttempt be made to start Monday was adopted unanimously. The operatives of the King Phillip mill , who have been on a strike tor ssvtral weeks , were granted half strike pay for the last three weeks. U was de cided to appropriate $1,000 a week from the fui ds ot the union to be illsli Ibuted nmong the needy members The strike of the spinners will force over half the mills to shut down , even should the wc&vers decide to go to work. The opinion among Ili3 operatives Is thnt the manufac turers will start up In a short time at the old rates.

At the cele bration of the Lord's supper at the West- nlnster Presbyterian church this morning ndlvldual communion cups will be used. On account of the germ theory of dis ease , nowBO generally accepted as a true one , It Is considered very deleterious to the lealth of communicants to follow the old system ot passing the same cup to n large number of persons. Learned physicians , after carefully considering the matter , have recently announced their conclusion that many diseases , such as consumption , catarrh , cancer and the Ilk" , can be , and probably lave been , transmitted In this way For these reasons many churches have adopted the Individual cup plan In the distribution of the wine. The first church to do so was the "Crick church" In Rochester. N. Y. , a few years ago. It was followed by the First Baptist of that city and later the custom was adopted by n , large number ot congregations in the east , particularly In New York and Brooklyn , nnd though the plan is by no means general , It nevertheless has been adopted so extensively that Individual com munion sets arc now a part of the stock of all houses furnishing church supplies. \V.

Grrnt l.iuuinpmrnt , Major Clarkson returned yesterday from the grand encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic at Plttsburg as full of enthu siasm and praise for everybody and every thing ha saw as It is possible for a man to get. "Plttsburg , " said the major , "Is a most delightful town and the citizens fairly turned th'inselves loose , and such magnificent hos pitality as was extended us on every hand v.i& something not met with many times In a lifetime. 'It was an occasion when a man was espe cially proud of having- been a soldier. The whole city was most gorgeously decorat'd , for as you know , It is one of the most loyal towns In the country. Courtesies were show ered upon us from the tmo | we landed until the labt moment befoie dtparture. "The reception uu > t Wednesday evening was the grandest , most elaborate affair I ever attended. The Westlnghouse electric light buildings were where the princely affair was held. These buildings are among the largest In the world , being900 feet long by COO wide. All the delegates to the encamp- msnt and their ladles were there , making a throng of something like 8,000 or 10,000 people ple , and everything was as Iridescent as n sun-klps-ed glacier , with sublime music , danc ing and a banquet for the gods. Friday the delegates and their ladles were given n trip down the river on three gaily bedecked steamers. We went to Homestead and went over the famous Carnegie Iron works. It was a most enjoyable and profitable trip But the parade Tuesday that was Incomparable , Indescribable. The streets were one Jam of eager , excited and joyous people a wonder ful sight , but marching was extremely labor ious Indeed ; the Jam was fairly concrete There Is a monotony , of course , about these pirades Of the old soIdUre , but there Is somethingtouchlngly beautiful about them , too , something that plays on one's heart strings In spite of everything. Probably It Is the unquenchable fires of patriotism re- nv-akenod In one's breast. Think of aclng those grizzled old heroes , some on crutches , Eomo armless , others hobbling along In the last stages of decrepitude , but bound to march all the same bound to one : more get in line. Yes , the encampment was a glorious thing , and Plttsburg Is a glorious city. " Oregon Kidney Tea cures backache. Trial size , 2G cents. All druggists. Hlnnim tlio lleer.
