Faith BEFORE Everyth,ne.

The denunciation of Dowieites as
traitors was caused by clause in a

shall be held subordinate to this VOW"
The vow Is profession of faith In

and Elijah the restorcr. Voliva came in
for denunciation, too, hut he can stand

taken

had reposed in them when they used
his power of attorney to dispossess'
him. The Volivnns had no right to ex-

Lamont received visit from a
genuine porch climber Sunday
night, the object of his operations
being the residence of George
Kreussel which the thief visited at
about ll:30 p. m. The family had
retired for the night and was in the
first sound sleep Of the night when
the thief began his silent work. He
climed to the porch on the north
wing of the kitchen and began
cutting away the screen of window
to enter the room. His work at the
screen awakened the two boys,
Theodore and Sigmond who began
an investigation and soon discovered
the culprit. Mr.. Kreussel was soon
awakened and called to the boys to
see what the cause of the trouble
was and the thief very quietly made
his departure. They saw him but
were not able to identify him as he
escaped into the darkness Lamont

Ruin to the Church Predicted.
Prediction that Judge Landis' action
will bring ruin to the church founded
by Dowie followed the court finale Of
the bitter fight between the Voliva and
Dowie factions. Judge Lands ordered
an election of general overseer of the
church to be held in Zion City on Tues
day, Sept. 1S. This election is almost
sure to go in favor of Voliva and he
is clated to the seventh heaven. Dowie
declines to comment on the decision,
but the belief is general that he will

Chicago, July 2S.-The decision Of
Judge Lands in the Zion City powie)
case is distinct victory for yoliva
and the insurgents" It destroys, SO
far as it can, the theocratical consti-
tuition of the'church, and makes Dowie
simply a leader, and not the whole
thing, practically, which is not very
great exaggeration Of his claims. John
G. Hately as receiver will rule the
Industries of the town. In scene of
tremendous, tense excitement Judge
Lands denounced many Of the, follow

Christian Catholic church as traitors
to their country. There ensued dis
tnrbance and the cries of women in
the court room. Judge Lands sternly
ordered quiet and threatened to clear
