LA GRANGE. y. c.. Nov Especial.
In December. 1884. there existed in l<inston
a firm by the name OF Dawson Brothers.
They failed. and the parties holding
claims against them had an investigation
made. and were represented by Attorney
James y. Rouse.
Miss Sudie Dawson, sister of the
boys. was a witness, and IT was necessary
20 take her testimony privately, eNcluu-
ing her father and three brothers from the
room.
When she retired from the Investigation
she told her father and brothers that Mr.;
Rouse mad insulted her. Whereupon all
four Of the Dawsons rushed in and tried
to shoot Mr.. Rouse, but were prevented
by the other lawyers In attendance.

4 SeIf-Clcansing Cup.

Christian people generally look upon
the individual cup movement with as
favor. and rightly 30. a. the use OF
separate cup for each COMMUNICATE les

ZION. 1hat there IS a growing l''liha
against the custom now practiced, as u

III cleanliness. and disease germs are
likely 10 be communicated. 1T cannot be
denied that there Il some danger in the
ordinary use OF the communion cup.
MANY have protested against IT, and
many others, the great majority, per-
haps. though they have never complained
feel a certain reyulsiOn against IT,.
In response to this feeling the pastor
OF church I'M CataSauqua, "a, has IN
vented a self-cleansing cup, whicn opvl-
ates all unpleasant features. insures alb
solute cleanliness and renders the trans
mission Of disease germs impossible. II
Is cuD within a cup, the inner cup re
voivlng upon a stem. There Is attacheu
TO the outer cup a cleanser, through
which the rim Of the cup from which
the communicates drink passes. Within
the cleanser is cushion Of absorbent
material. which presses firmly against
the rim. This cleansing material or puri-
ncator. into which has been previously
dried an inodorous and harmless germi-
eide. can be removed and renewed as
often as desired.
After each communicate partakes OF
the wine the inner cup is turned one
fourth round By the hand on the STEM
and the part of the rim used passes
through the cleanser before being used
again. The wine is contained in reser-
Voir. with glass top, and at each quar-
ter turn Of the cup, wine for one COM
munlcant t&bout half a teaspoonrup
passes from the reservoir by means Of a
valve at the bottom. into the cup from
which the commitment receives IT,.
Thus all the unused wine remains i'm the
reservoir and is beyond the reach or
protruding mousiaches or any particles
OF saliva that might cling to the rim.
The appearance Of the self-cleansing
cup differs but little from that Of the
ordinary cup; and by it the zone cup"
is preserved, whilst every possible danger
OF infection is removed
