Chicago, Dec. 3.-"All who have not Zion in their hearts cannot come into Zion, is the order promulgated today by John Alexander Dowie through his chief of police. "From now on they will arrest or escort to the city limits every person not of the faith or who are not U. $. officials: we will bow to the government alone"
 Lace factories, lumber mill and other industries continued in operation today, and, contrary to expectations, Dowie' s trade checks were taken instead of money now in the hands of the federal receivers.
 Federal Custodian Redieski said to- day that his inspection of Dowie's books led him to believe Dowie better off financially than any bankrupt ever before known. The receivers are at a loss to understand where he can get the money to pay the workmen em- ployed in the factories. Dowie, how ever, declares that people will work for nothing provided they are furnished with food.
 Federal Judge Kohlsaat has appoint ed Dowie manager of the Zion indus tries. It is the idea of the court and the receivers to interfere as little as possible with the established order of Dowie's industries. Dowie is to be the agent of the receivers, and the arrange ment is to be discontinued if it is found that the interests can be managed by him.

TWO SCHOONERS LONG OVERDUE
Fears Felt for the Safety of the Sin.
gleton Palmer and the Victor.

Boston, Mass. December 27.-Two
lschooners. the Singleton Palmer new
and the Viator. as well as the New Jer-
lsey schooner Lizzie Babcock. which is
frequently seen in these waters, are all
long overdue at their destinations and
considerable anxiety is felt for their
safety.
The five masted Singleton Palmer
sailed from this port on December 5th
for Newport News, Va. The vessel
should have reached destination In five
lor six days and the entire absence of
news since she passed by Highland
Light on the afternoon of the sailing
leads to the belief that some mishap
has befallen her. The Palmer carries
a crew of fourteen men and is valued
lat $120,0OO.
The three master Viator sailed from
Turks Island November 23rd with a
cargo of salt for Baltimore. II is
Thought that she encountered the fierce
storms which recently prevailed along
the southern coast. The Viator carries
eight men in her crew.
The schooner Lizzie Babcock owned
lin Sumner, N. j., left Baltimore Novem>
ber 3rd with a cargo of coal for Car
ldenas, cuba, and has not been reported
since her departure.
1t is feared this schooner was lost in
"a hurricane off the Florida coast.

like to go back to my childhood days,
and it will be real treat to have tle
youngster in here Get right along
with you
The child was brought in, and be-
tween Mr.. BowSter and the cat he was
too busy to Eotice his mothers depar-
ture. After lie had pulled the cats
tail for fifteen minutes the feline es-
capped from his clutches, and then lie
suggested in his childish way that he
wanted turn at the bear business.
"All right sonny replied MIR. Bow
ser as he got down en- his knees and
began to friSk.

OF the hall and sitting room and also
allowed to pull such Of Mr.. Bowser's
hair as he could discover amid the
badness. but this proved to be tame
sport. He wanted to hear the bear"
growl and see him knock things about.
Very well. young man. How's this
for the bear that broke into the little
boys house%
And with that he uttered a growl
that lifted the kid foot high and al
most tumbled him over, and chair
was upset and twisted about on the
floor 1t was too realistic. There
were howls of dismay that could have
been heard across the street, and it
took a deal of galloping about and
drumming on the piano to ease of the
howls. When they had quite died
away Mr. Bowser remarked:
"We'll drop the bear business and
do little singing. 1 remember that
your father told me you liked to hear
it. just watch my mouth while give
you verse of the Sweet By and
By"
In bursting into song Mr.. Bowser
twisted his mouth in all sorts of
shapes, meaning to give the kid a run
for his money, but the boy got the idea
that he was being made fun of, and
only two lines had been sung when he
suddenly Strengthened out and began
to kick and howl.
The cat came back. but neither the
sight of her nor the discord on the
piano had any qufeting effect. In fact.
it was not until Mr.. BowSer had gal
loped up and down with the bowler in
his arms until his legs ached that the
yells tapered ofintO sobs.
The boy felt that his confidence had
been misplaced and that he had been
the victim OF put up job. and. though
he ceased to YELL he held himself ready
to break out anew on the slightest
proyocatioG. He was seated on the
floor and surrounded with pieces of
bric-a-brac, and he was quiet for seven
CT eight minutes. Then he found the
things breakable and had knocked the
head off small bust Of Shakespeare
8 and was trying to smash a vase into

Eve or six pieces when Mr.. Bowser In
terfered and observed:
Young man, what you want for
playthings are a sledge hammer and a
cobblestone"
The child felt the insult and injus-
tice at once, and he put mp his lips
and kicked out and howled. On this
occasion he meant that his voice should
be heard at the nearest police station
and the patrol wagon dispatched to
make prompt arrest, but after the
ninth or tenth howl he choked up and
turned red in the face and took the
rest of it out in kicks.
The only thing Mr. Bowser could
think of waste grab him up and can
ter down to the kitchen and pound on
the sink and let the water run from
both faucets. The youngster went shy
on it for awhile, but finally eased of
and took the stove handle into his own
hands and pounded away with such
heartiness that the cook came down
from her room on the third floor and
asked:
HAS this house been turned into a
lunatic asylum, sir?'
''It's this confounded young unr' re-

more noises you needn't get alarmed.
Come kid, let's find some sugar"
The words appealed to the young
ster, and he surrendered the iron and
braced up. But not for long, however.
This time it was Mr.. Bowser's fault
that calamity occurred. He got down
the salt instead of the sugar box, and
ut the first taste tie child realized that
he had been kidIed again.
1t was piling Insult upon injury, and
;Ie would not have been youngster

commenced to get red in the face, his
chin quiyered. and the tears came to
Lis eyes. and all of sudden he gave

jaw and roared out. AS he roared he

Never in al his born days had the

knee in position II be spanked his
bowls and struggles brought the cook
halfway downstairs to shout out:

But l don't want it, my good wom-

any danger of an explosion or any
thing?'
MY brothers children have never
exploded. sir
''Then I'll risk it, and here goes"
And with proper paternal tenderness.
but at the same time with proper pa
ternal vigorousness, Mr.. Bowser raised
and let fall his hand full dozen times.
The first half dozen falls increased the
howls, but ere the last had reached the
spot astonishment. fear and indigna-
ton had got in their work. and the
youngster hadn't been deposited on the

"Is it over, sir!" asked the cook from

"Yes. all over"

returned with Mrs. Bowser.
'Not the slightest. ma'am. Indeed,

seemed bit suspicious:
