WOULD BUY JERUSALEM.
Dowie Tells His Followers of His OBJ
ject In Life.

Dowie Tells His Followers Of His OBJ
Jeet In Life.
For the first time in his career John
Alexander Dowie has announced to
his followers what his real aim in
life is. Before a gathering of 1000
persons In Shiloh Tabernacle, Zion
City, he said that his only purpose
in building Zion was to make enough
millions of dollars to buy outright the
city OF Jerusalem and lead his people
there to await the coming of Christ.
From the present outlook it will
not be many years before we will
have several Zion cities" said Dowie,
.'and we will make enough to accom-
plish our great purpose"
The theme of Dowie's talk and ev-
cry remark were to show that Zion
City is the fulillment of the prophecy
of Isaiah. He spoke upon THE City
OF God" and told of the great things
Zion was to do in the world.
Dowie averred the millennium is
closer at hand than people imagined.
The recent volcanic eruptions he be-
lieved, are warnings to prepare for
the end of the world. He cited the
Lake Shore as particularly suscept-
ible to siesmic disturbances and de-
clared that when the world is burned
up in the awful fire that is kindling
for it Zion City will stand alone. un-
harmed.
"The theocratic party declared
Dowie, will before long rule the
world Zion City will be the leading
city of America in education, religion,
commerce and finance. 1t will have a
feet of vessels plying between tho
continents"
Cities like Zion are to be estab-
lished in other places. Already offers
of land have been received.

FOREST FIRES DO MUCH DAMAGE

For many miles along the Wyoming
Colorado line north OF Pearl. Colo. n
furious forest fire is raging, devastat-
ing everything in its path. Every eff
fort to subdue the flames has been ex-
hausted without effect.
According to the latest reports there
are at least eighteen serious forest
fires burning in Wyoming. to say moth
ing of numerous smaller fires in south
ern Albany county that are destroying
great swamps of fine pine timber in
the Medicine range and threatening
mining buildings. One hundred miles
away from Cheyenne the smoke from
these fires obscures the sky here and
the odor of burning wood is plainly
noticeable.

Replantine Grass.

The replanting of grass on the
wasted cattle ranges in Nebraska,
Wyoming. Colorado, Utah. Montana.
Idaho and the Dakotas is to be at
tempted by the railways penetrating
those states. The first problem to be
solved is the finding OF a grass plant
suitable for stock purposes. Nearly
1000 acres will be fenced in and
divided into thirty lots for expert
ments in planting. These western
cattle ranges have been ruined by
sheep. 1t is expected once the FEAST
bility of replanting is proved the
federal and state governments will
lend their aid to the movement.
