Naggsby-lt's funny how women
will change their minds. When first
met the girl who eventually became
Mrs. N, she was one of those who
declared she wouldn't marry the best
man in the world. Within year she
married me.

think she has changed her mind?-

1.-THE CITY OF ZION
Unique Community Built Up
by John Alexander Dowie.
A MODERN THEOCRACY
RULED BY THE FOUNDER OF THE
CHRISTIAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Something About the Man Who Has
Been Trying to "Restore"
New York.
A MODERN THEOCRACY

Written for The Evening Star by Anna Nichols
GoodnG
In the fall Of SO a certain John Alexander
Dowie had. for some time, been making
more or less OF sensation. in and around
Chicago. as a divine healer" He had
gathered around him a number of follow
ers. and. in 1898. had organized the Chris
tian Catholic Church. He and his wife con-
Quoted divine healing home" on Michi-
gan avenue. and so large had his congrega-
tons grown that lac had for some time been
holding services in the Auditorium.
1t now transpred that the general over
seer Of the Christian Catholic Church was
planning much larger things than he had
hitherto attempted. He announced that 1t
was his purpose to found city as a home
for his followers-a new Zion-and that he
had secured q site on the shore OF Lake
Michigan about forty miles north of Chi
cago.
The day for such things had gone by, It
was said; people no longer followed their
religious leaders blindly. or allowed them
to dictate in temporal matters. The news
papers treated the whole affair as a huge
Joke. and II has always been one of Dowie' 8
chief grievances that he Is continually and
persistently misrepresented by the report
ers Nevertheless the preparations went
steadily forward. Payments were made on
the land. city was mapped out. tents were
put up and building began.
A Growing Town.
Today a prosperous city with a popula-
ton that Is nearing the 10000 mark testi-
fes to the power of Dowie's name. 1t
took Chicago forty years to acquire the
population that Zion City has reached in
two.
The most interesting object in Zion City,
from an Industrial point of view, is the

tains are being manufactured. as we'll as
trimming laces of various kinds.
Zion City is justly proud of her lace fac
tory, but 1t is not the only successful en-
terprise of which she can boast.

IF, it is not an authoritative guide for his

! self, it is not an authoritative guide for his
fellow"
and earnestly desire an authoritative guide
outside of their own conscienceA and to
this class Dowie appeals.
The Catho''c Church has always main
tanned dominion over the consciences OF Its
members. but the Protestants have been
dividing and subdividing, until mo undis-
puted authority remains. Those who are
disinclined to do their own thinking are.
pointed out. likely TO adhere to- any one
who positively and persisfehtly axoerts him
self as an authority. Now this - precisely
ha the eh does sna q hes the
Zion city Ia a theocraey ana John Alex
ander Dowie Is Its prophet. HIS position IS
somewhat similar to that of Brigham
Young among the Mormons, but the re-
ligton Of Zioh differs radically from that of
the Mormons In that 1t contains nothing
that is at variance with the general con-
ception of good morals. Indeed. whatever
may be thought of the marvellous cures
which it SO plentifully records. no one can
read a cop.' of the Leaves of Healing
without being Impressed by its high stan
dard Of morality.
Local Government.
Dowie has recently become a citizen Of
the United States. and he conforms strictly
to all laws and legal forms. The city gov
eminent of Zion is administered In the
| usual manner except that there Is but one
political party IN existence-the theocratic-
and 1t is the boast Of Elijah IL that in
political matters they have built up party
which suits the people so we'll that there Is
not a single dissenting vote at the election.
The conclusion is so obvioiis that one Is led
to suspect that the general oyerseer occa-
sionally INDUCES in sly joke.
Dowie has become established fact In
both the religious and the Industrial worlds.
still remains. On more than one occasion
his enemies have gleefully announced his
imminent downfall. only to find that he
knows how t. wrest victory from defeat.
His shrewdness and executive ability pro-
claim him a natural leader of men. He has
raised himself by his own unaided efforts
from the position of a poor and obscure
faith healer" to that of absolute autocrat
of prosperous and growing community,
command. A certain dignity and state sur
round him wherever he goes, for he is far
too clever to undervalue the Importance of
proper stage settings.
His violent denunciations from the pulpit,
his assumption of healing power his theat-
rical proclamations that he is a second ELL
jah, have made him the subject of criticism
and ridcule without limit. Yet. after all, 1t
must be admitted that his followers are de-
ence over them appears to be for their gen.
eral good. The community Is at present
prosperous, happy and comfortable, and
lions ambition to show the highest birth
rate and the lowest death rate of any city
In the country" seems In fair way to be
realized.
