THE RETURN OF DOWIf.
He Comes to Chicago and consults
with His laWyers-ls in No Hur-
ry to Go to Zion City.

Chicago, Ill.-Dr. John AleXan-
der Dowie will not advance on the
"hosts of Zion" as suddenly as he ex-
pected. Last night after a long con-
sultation with his legal adviser, Emil
c. Wetten, Dowie gave out the state
ment that it might be several days
before he saw fit to enter the city
which he had founded. "The first
apostle" arrived in Chicago Tuesday
morning, completing the first stage
of his long journey from Mexico to
Zion City.
After a short rest Dowie summoned
his legal advisers and then ensued a
long conference. Just what steps will
be taken to reinstate "the first apos-
tie" in Zion City were not definitely
stated, but Dowie did say that there
would be no compromise with Voliva
and that he (Dowie) must be the
leader of Zion or nothing at all.
This same determination on the
part of Dowie's opponents at Zion
City was manifested last night when
at conference of the business COM
mittee of II appointed by Voliva some
time ago it was decided to send to all
branches of the church throughout
the world the following order:
Members of the Christian Catholic
church are directed not to send more
money for Mexican land warrants"

OPERATORS ANSWER MINERS.
The Anthracite Mine Owners Offer to
Submit Two Questions to Ar
bltration.

New York.-The anthracite oper-
ators at their conference with
the mine workers here Tuesday
declined the proposition to have the
conciliation board arbitrate all griev-
ances submitted by the wage workers
and made a counter proposition that
the commission appointed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt in 1902 be requested
to decide whether any changes in con-
ditions in the hard coal regions have
occurred which require that the
award of the commission should be
modified. The mine owners limit the
inquiry to two grievances-wages
and method for the adjustment of
complaints.
The miners have taken the proposal
under consideration and may give the
operators an answer on Thursday,
when another conference between the
sub b-committees of the two parties will
be held. In the meantime the miners
committee Of 36 will hold sessions
and agree on reply.
In connection with the conference
George +. Baer, chairman of the mine
owners subcommittee, made public
letter sent to the committee by the
Independent operators in which they
give their views on the situation and
express their firm conviction that
"any agreement to arbitrate with the
United Mine Workers will be an un-
justifiable surrender to anarchy and
mob violence"

Columbus, o., April 1.-The SUI.
preme court on Tuesday, in effect, de-
clared unconstitutional the law per-
mitting small children living more
than mile and half from their dis
trict school to attend the nearest
school. 1t reversed, however, the
Hamilton county circuit court deci-
sion, which sought to relieve Cincin-
natl of paying to the town of Oakley
about $1,000 tuition for children who
attended the latter school. Cincin-
natl must pay the money, on the
ground that at the time the children
concerned were going to the Oakley
school the law was constitutional.
Henceforth children must attend the
school of their own district

MANY PHYSICIANS PRESCRIBE
Lydia e. PSnftitas1frs
Vegetable 00sssp0Und

The wonderful power of lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is a stimulant, not because it
is palliative, but simply because 1t is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the generative organs, positively
curing disease and restoring health and
vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures and physicians
who have recognized the virtue of
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, ana are fair enough to give
credit where it is due.
If physicians dared to be frank and
open, hundreds of them would aclknowl-
edge that they constantly prescribe,
Lydia e. Piukham's Vegetable Com
pound in severe cases of female ills, as,
they know by experience it can be re-.
lied upon to effect a cure. The follow
ing letter proves it.
DR.. S. G. Brigham, OF Brigham
Park, Ftchburg, Mass, writes:
at gives me great pleasure to say that
have found Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable,
scribe it in my practice for female difficulties.
"My Oldest daughter found it very benefi-
cial fora femaletrouble some time ago, andmy
youngest daughter is now taking It for fe.
male weakness, and is surely gaining in health
and strength.
81 freely advocate 1t as a most reliable spe-
cific in all diseases to which women are sub
ject, and give it honest endorsement"
Women who are troubled with pain
full or irregular periods, bloating Tor
flatulency), weakness of organs, dis
placements, inflammation or orulceration,
can be restored to perfect health and
strength by taking Lydia e. PinlSham's
Vegetable Compound. If advice is
needed write to Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. She is daughter-in-law
of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty
five years has been advising sick
women free of charge. No other living
person has had the benefit of a
wider experience in treating female
ills. She has guided thousands to
health. Every suffering woman should
ask for and follow her advice if she
wants to be strong and well.
