fact in both the religious and the In
dustrial worlds. Call him a gigantic
fraud, If you will, he still remains. On
more than one occasion his enemies
have gleefully announced his immi-
nent downfall, only to find that he
knows how to wrest victory from de-
feat. His shrewdness and executive
ability proclaim 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 pros
porous and growing community, with
an almost unlimited income at his
command. A certain dignity and state
surround 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 pow
er. his theatrical proclamation that he
is second Elijah, have made him the
subject of criticism and ridicule
without limit. Yet, after all, it must
be admitted that his followers are de-
voted and enthusiastic, and that his
influence over them appears to be for

amount already spent in establishing
zion City. To the inhabitants this re-
markable development is but surety
Of greater things that are to come. A

the conversation of the people and
the literature of Zion publishing house

they call the worldly.

1t is with this large view Of the
future that the city has been laid out

residence and manufacturing districts
have been assigned, and thousands Of
young trees have been set out along

itself, to convert to "Dowieism' those

Failure on the part of the lessee to

Individualism in industrial matters
Is strongly encouraged, if one may
judge from Dowies dictum in regard
to trades unions, which says:
"Zion's workmen are members of no
labor union, nor do they work for
uniform scale of wages, for in Zion
the skill of each mans competency is
encouraged by an ever-increasing
wage. All men are not equal, and a
level line of compensation is death to
ambition"
This has no uncertain sound. and
seems to settle the question once for
all, so far. at least, as Zion is con-
cerned.
1t is one Of Dowie's characteristics
that he stands for very positive and
definite ideas. Alternative illusions
to pigs, pills and physicians" and
doctors, drugs, and devils" are con-
spicuous in lions literature. The use
OF pork in any form is absolutely for
hidden. Oysters also come under the

continuous from kindergarten to col

cational department.
The general appearance of Zion is
one of activity and substantial thrift.
Everything is aggressively new. The
peculiar character of the people is
made evident in numerous ways. For
instance, the visitor notices, with
little Start, perhaps, the motto, It'll
He Come" over the ticket window in
the station which the Northwestern
Railroad has provided; signboards,
conspicuous on every hand, warn all
against the use of tobacco, alcohol, or
profanity within the sacred precincts;
the long boards which many of the
men wear, in accordance with Dowie's
command, give them somewhat pa
triarchal look. in contrast with the
many smooth-shaven faces among the

various queer-looking objects arranged
in symmetrical groups. Closer exami-

to found city as home for his fol-
lowers-a new Zion-and that he had
secured a site on the shore of Lake
Michigan, about forty miles north of
Chicago.
The day for such things had gone
by, 1t was said; people no longer fol-
lowed their religious leaders blindly,
or allowed them to dictate in temporal
matters. The newspapers treated the
whole affair As huge joke and it
has always been one of Dowie's chief
grievances that he is continually and
persistently misrepresented by the re-
porters.
Nevertheless the preparations went
steadily forward. Payments were made
on the land, city was mapped out,
tents were put up, and building be-
gan.
To-day prosperous city with a
population that Is nearing the ten
thousand mark testifies to the power
of Dowie's name. 1t took Chicago for
ty 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 lace factory. 1t was announced
early in the history Of the place that
the manufacture of lace would be
leading occupation. Dowie himself
