ZION DoWIE's METHODS.
A London View of the Anti-Ham
nnd-EEgs Apostle.

LONDON. Nov. A fair idea OF the
effect of Zionist" Dowie's extraordinary
crusade in London is gained from the
following paragraph in leading journal:
'Dowie, the faith healer and anti-ham-
and-eggs apostle from Chicago, has fin
ished his crusade for the conversion OF
London to his peculiar tenets. has shaken
the dust OF the metropolis from his shoes
and today left the Kings Cross station
to try his hand on Edinburgh He fnish-
ed his mission with grand aquatic dis
play on the previous evening in large
swimming bath at Islington especially
hired for the occasion. Dowie himself
took n prominent part in the performance
assisted by number of persons who were
described as converts, and who would
have been none the worse had some sa-
ponaceous compound been used TO assist
the water.
The proceedings were enlivcned with
music. The crusade does not seem 10
have been a marked success. No ham ana
beef shop has been compelled to close It's
doors and bacon and eggs are still popular
as ever for breakfast. Dowie was accom-
panied to the station by few VINO state
that they remain in London to further the
building of the Chicago Zion by the COL
lection of money"

WfIkesbnrre District Employers Will

WILKESBARRE. Pa. Nov 1.-THE en-
ployes Of all the collieries in this valley
are circulating a petition asking the COM
panes to pay them se,ii-mOnthly. and as
the companies have agreed to do so, pro-
viding majority of the men ask it. the
new system OF payment will probably go
into effect by December l. The topping
question is still creating trouble.
The force at the Exeter colliery OF the
Valley Coal Company, and at the Petit
bone, of the D., L. & W., went on strike
this morning After two sessions with
District Superintendent Owens the Exeter
men returned to work. but the Pettibone
is still idle. The difficulty at the Conya-
ham, D. {, H. mine, has been settled, the
laborers having been promised an increase
by the miners.
District President Nichols is distributing
among the local unions of his district q
circular letter of advice and suggestion,
which contains an admonition against con-
duct that would tend TO cause unharmo-
NOUS relations between employer and en-
ploye. One of his suggestions is that the
men employed by the larger companies ar
range TO have all the collieries Of that
company represented by one committee
rather than that each colliery send sepa-
rate committee.

At the Gunton- Temple Memorial Church
yesterday morning the sermon delivered
by the pastor, A. 8. Fiske, d. D., was in
commemoration of the Christian mission
aries murdered in China. He spoke from
the text, BLESSED are the dead, who die
in the Lord Rev. xiv:13. He said, in
part:
In our century has sprung ur again

heroic things, things sublime, are being
done today as never before since the days
of the apostles. They are being done by
modest and humble men and women, who
with no dreams of fame, but with Chris
tianity and love emily for man, whom they
live and die to save, whose only gains are
earthly loss.

"In these days has come to these groups
of heroes in one great Empire their time

have given the last full proof of their de-
votion and won their martyr crowns amidst
horrors beyond those Of earlier times.
Fifteen thousand of their meek converts
have been tortured to death, not accept

God. Nor have they faltered when any
strange thing has befallen them. They re-

through which the primitive church passed
to the dominion of the worlds empire for
800 years. They remembered the twenty
five years of horrible persecution through
which Madagascar passed till a princess

OF personal peril appeared, threats were
heard. murderous placarGs were posted,
and brutal edicts for the determination OF
all foreign devils began to appear, threat
ening mobs to gather, and arrests on
frivolous charges with cruel scourging be-
gan. There was no fiinching. No mission
airy left his post till orders came from the
boards at home, and from the consuls OF
their provinces, or from friendly or hostile
native officials, that they better go. Most
of them delayed to care for their poor
converts and to share their perils till their
escape grew fearfully difficult or impossi-
BILE. Their converts were faithful to them
to the last, and either left their all and
went with them, or helped their departure
and turned back TO meet their awful fate.
Our own Presbyterian missionary lives
have been wonderfully preserved. Only
those at Faoting-fu are known to have
been slaughtered-Mr. and Mrs. Hodge, DR..
Taylor. and Mr.. and Mrs. Sincox. with
their three children. or the $50 mission
aries and members of their families who
have persisted, but these eight are our

and by learn from the lips of some con-
vert who miraculously escaped. or may
be from the lips of some man
who shared in the brutal murder. who shall

whom he prosecuted. We know not how
the end came. but their houses and schools
and churches are all burned, and may well
have been the funeral pyre, as hideous
things danced and howled around them and
flung them in. Fs
Than these five there were no more
chosen spirits in any land. OF excellent
birth were they all. Of admirable physique
each one, honor men and women of their
universities and in the flower OF their
young lives.
"Of the $50 other holy sacrifices CT for
eign missionaries we cannot speak, nor
OF the $4,000 heroic converts, faithful I'M
to death. Their record and rewards are
in Heaven.
"Of the living who passed through
those great tribulations with heroic faith
equal to that Of those triumphant dead
let 1t be said. some of them are worn.
aged, and broken by the awful strain of
their terrible experience. Some are
marred for life by their beatings and saw

Not one of them who does not believe

Not one of them breathes revenge. but
