NO GUESTS FOR THE HOTEL

Conditions at the hospice furnish added proof
OF the decline. The visitor to Zion City used to
find the dining-room filed with from $50 to 200
people every day and every room tenanted To
one who drops in now there is presented no spec
tac1e of booming business; less than 20 discour-
aged men and women find seats about the dining
room at luncheon. Some of these were invalids,
who, as one of the hafalive walters expressed it,
could not leave the hospice. Others were officers
in the once prosperous town.

ALL ARE WEARY OF LITIGATION.

There is little comfort for the suffering Zion
ties in the news that Dowie thanks to Heavenly
revelations" is planning new legal coup by
which he hopes to regain control of the affairs of
the city, The idea of further protracted litigation
has ceased to interest the hungry there. There
has been life of vanishing hopes since the de-
cline of the Dowis dynasty began, and the hard
truth was brought home to the citizens.
The appointment of new receiver brought a
crowd of hungry men and women to the admins
tration building to settle their claims against the
bank and with Mr.. Hately. Old bankbooks had
been fished out from their places in the desolate
homes and there was general rush to the place.
1t was only another disappointment One by
one and In groups the applicants for money were
turned away. Men and women begged for a few
cents to keep food on their tables It was no use.

CHICAGO.-Zion City, builded almost in a

FROM THIS THE PRESIDENT ESCAPES.

The annual house cleaning is now in progress
at the White House. 1t would require an expert
mathematician to figure out just how many
coats of paint, how many yards of plastering and
how much expenditure of money there have been
lavished upon this historic old building. Every
year the interior is gone over and every year the
outside is either painted or washed, so that the
glistening whiteness may be retained.
The decorations of the executive mansion
need careful attention always and the paint and
enamel work has to be kept clean and free from
all marks and scratches. The multitude of pill
grims who annually visit this building is disposed
to be critical, and if any dirt or any DETACHMENT
OF decorations or walls is discovered, there is
sure to be something ugly said about it. The
hard wood floors have to be cared for whenever

THE SHADOW OF DECAY PREVAILS.

Plt1able conditions are found among the PEG.
pie and the shadow of decay has fallen upon all
it's industries. A majority of workingmen who
live in Zion City now make their living in neigh
boring towns. Time was when laborers from
Waukegan, Kenosha and other towns within a
radius of 20 miles found employment within the
growing city; when men even went from Chicago
and secured work there at profitable wages
Now in Kenosha and Waukegan be found
men of good families with homes in Zion CITY
earning bare living for themselves and those
at home by working new roads, Among these
common laborers are those who once held posi-
lions as bank clerks, travelling men and aids to
bowie in his magnificent Mexican scheme

City last year there was employment at good

STANFORD WHITE AND THE WHITE HOUSE.

The recent tragic death of Architect White
who was shot by Harry K. Thaw, attracted un-
usual attention in Washington because he was
OF the firm of architects that made the plans for
the renovation of the old White House and the
construction of the executive Office buildings
There has always been diversity of opinion as
to whether the expenditures, amounting to about
quarter of million dollars in restoring the
White House to it's original design were justified
In the opinion of those of artistic taste, it was
money we'll spent, although the general public does
not appreciate what was done. The original design
of the White House contemplated q terrace on
each side of the main building. This had never
been fully carried out a huge conservatory on
the west, an ugly structure Of glass, wood and
iron, taking the place of the terrace. This was
removed and the extensions on either side are

however, does not prevent anarchists coming to
this country and preaching their doctrine. It is
comparatively easy thing for this disorderly
element to obtain admission to this country. and
congress will be asked to consider more drastic
regulations regarding them.
