any man, and being one of the finest
in the world it is entitled to the appre-
citation of every man interested In
American growth and prosperity. Such
recognition has evidently been award
ed, as the demand has always exceed
ed the supply.
There Is but one reason why the
equipment has not been increased to
meet the great demand for the splendid
product, and that reason is, it is now
said, the mismanagement of funds in
the hands of the founder.
The next Zion industry in size and
importance is the Sugar and Confec-
ton Association. This industry covers
a floor space of 10000 square feet, en-
ploys about 100 hands and has not yet
been able to supply the increasing de-
mand. The factory has the finest mod
ern equipment, and the product is
known the country over as being abso-
Iutely pure, beautiful in workmanship
and unexcelled in quality. The plant
is run entirely by electric power, in
surfing perfect cleanliness. A speciality
is made of pan work, the finest and
most complet line of these goods made
by any factory in the world.

ZION CITY INDUSTRIES.
A Great Business Successfully Planted
in This Country.

A modern lace machine is a wonder
full product of the inventors genius
Those installed in Zion lace factories
appear, to the uninitiated as marvels
in mechanism, and are said to be of
the very latest and best type. Each
machine weighs about nine tons and
Is composed of more than $4,000 sepa-
rate pieces.
Sixteen million yards of cotton are
used to thread a single machine divid-
ed into $4,000 separate threads all
arranged in perfect order The daily
product of one Of these machines is
about one mile of lace of the average
width. .1d,
In January, 1900, during visit to
England, Dowie purchased the equip
ment and machinery of a successful
and well-ordered lace factory and ship
ped it to America. At that time staff
of 25 expert lace operators were ar
ranged for, which aroused the keenest
opposition in England while the labor
factions on thisI side of the water be-
gan campaign of bitter antagonism
The press of the country predicted that
the lacemakers could not land without
violating the sAlien Contract Labor
Law of the United States.
The first party arrived in Philadel-
pha, Nov. II, 1900, on the steamer
"Waesland" and were there detained
on board the steamer pending a con-
fiict The first ruling of the Board of
immigration was that the people must
return to England on the steamer
which brought them. A rehearing was
secured and the adverse decision was
reaffirmed. An appeal was then made
to the Commissioner of Immigration,
and after legal battle the case was
won, and the people were permitted
to land.
The result of this last ruling was
that while these lace experts were per-
mitted to land, upon the ground that
a new industry was being brought to
this country, the establishing of other
factories was barred, since after the
factory was established I'm Zion City,
lace making was no longer a new in
dustry in America.

THE FIGHTING McCOOKS.
The Most Noted Family Of Soldiers in the War Of the
Rebellion
Hy THEO. r. ALLEN, 7th Ohio Cav.

The blood of the Scotch-1rish, a
fighting blood, has made itself felt in
every war of modern times, and in no
instance has this been more marked
than in the "Ohio McCooks," who ac-
quired a wide reputation during the
civil war as the Fighting McCooks."
They are generally spoken of as one
family, but really they comprise two
families, Maj. Daniel McCook and his
nine sons, and the five sons of his
brother, DR.. John McCook. OF the for
mer family, there were engaged in the
military service the father, Maj. Daniel
McCook; his sons, Maj Latimer A. Nc

SITUATION SPELLS DELAY
Congress viii Stay In Session TIL Its
Work Is Flniahed

Work Is Finished
WASHINGTON, June 26.-Congress
will stay in session until it's work Is
finished.
This is the dictum of Speaker Cam
non and his lieutenants and is being
emphasized at this time to counteract
any impression that the pure food bill
at least might go over until the next
session.
There is also trouble on the meat in
spection bill, and the "tie up" on the
railroad rate bill indicates delay. The
immigration bill is also in conference,
as are several of the appropriation
bills.
All of these things must be worked
out without any date of adjournment
being set, according to the decision Of
the house leaders. When the work is
done an adjournment resolution will be
forthcoming in short order.
While the situation today spells de-
lay until next week the work on the
floor is progressing. Members say
there is no need Of prolonging the ses-
sion beyond Friday If the conferees
make up their minds that the work
must be done or that agreements which
will meet all demands can be arranged
on matters before that time, and II the
idea of prolonging the session for the
purpose of killing certain bills is aban-
doned this week will see the end
