Much HeTaIded Entry Was Without

Turned Out to Greet Him.
BY Associated Press.

Chicago, April 2S.-"I am glad to be
home again"
With these words John Alexander
Dowie, the depOsed leader of the
Christian Catholic Church in Ameri-
ca, this afternoon entered the por-
tails of Shiloh house, completing his
much heralded entry into Zion City
after an absence of several months,
during which he has been deserted by
a large part of his followers and been
stripped of all ecclesiastical authority.
Mrs. Dowie met him at the door Of
the Shiloh house and gave him hearty
welcome.
Dowie's return to Zion City was
void of all pomp and ceremony, only
a few people being at the station to
greet him and a majority of these
were women.
Dowie occupied a special car on a
regular Northwestern railroad train
this afternoon from Chicago and was
accompanied by several personal at
tendants.
