POOR old DOWIE DENOUNCED BY
own CHURCHMEN.
Mrs. Dowie Applauds Bitter Denunci-
alton of Her Absent Spouse-Gates
Barred to John-The New Overseer
Warns Followers no Glad Hand Must
be Given Former Leader

Zion City, ILL.,, April 9.-The people
of Zion City heard their former leader,
John Alexander Dowie, denounced from
the pulpit in Shiloh tabernacle Sunday,
and they approved of it, or at least as
many of them as could crowd into that
vast meeting house signified their will
lingness in manner that left no doubt
of sincerity to follow in the footsteps
of the first apostles successor, Cen
eral Overseer Voliva. lions new lead
er was the man that told of DOwie's
alleged misdeeds, and the more bitter
ton the more generally enthusiastic
the people became When after de-
nouncing Dowie as "spendthrift,"
liar and traitor to his trust and
his people," Overseer Voliva suddenly
stopped in his denunciation of the
founder of the sect, and at the end of
a moments hesitation demanded a de-
cisiOn from the audience as to who
should be their future leader, the 5000
people in the tabernacle arose as one
person and signified their willingness
to follow VOliva to the end.
On the platform with Voliva were
Mrs. John Alexander Dowie, Judge
Barnes head of the law department of
Zion City, and Overseers Speicher, Elk
cell, Cantel and Granger. The con-
clusion of a short prayer by Overseer
Speicher the newly appointed head of
Zion, clad in a robe of simple white
and black decided departure from
the gaudy raiment assumed by the
first apostle on similar occasions, STEP
ped to the front of the platform, and
in slow calm and studied voice made
the announcement that he was going
to take advantage of the meeting to
tell them a few truths.
Mrs. Dowie AppIauds.
When most bitter in the denuncia-
ton of his former master, there was
no one in the tabernacle who showed
approval of his remarks more than
Overseer Jane Dowie, the wife for 80
years of John Alexander Dowie, and
the mother of his three children. At
one point in his remarks, where Vol
iva, in angry tones, exclaimed: Il will
see that all costly furniture and ex-
pensive library adjoining Dowie's Zion
City residence, and which were pur-
chased by the hypocrite while many of
his people were in need of food, are
sold and the money turned into Zion
stOrehouseS''
and with her voice and hand loudly
applauded the words of the speaker.

Acting under instructions from the

the purpose of framing new reciproc-

in 1890 than in 1880. The startling
facts revealed by the census show
that those who read and write are
more criminal than the iliteratc,
which is true of no other clement
of our population"
Such is the summing up OF the
case by Governor Vardamann, and,
despite his well-known prejudice
against the negro, his high position
makes it impossible to ignore his
remarks. Tho friends of the negro
race should closely investigate each
assertion made by the Mississippian

OF the methods of educating the ne.

he shall prove that learning is bad
thing for the black man he may
carry the argument to its logical
conclusion and show us that the
State should spend no money for the
education Of anybody.
There can be 10 doubt that n
combination of the literary and man
