Chicago, July 27.-Judge Lands of
the United States district court gave
his decision during the day in the
controversy between the adherents Of
John Alexander Dowie and Wilbur
Glenn Voliva over the property at
Zion City.
The court holds that Zion City and
its industries do not belong to Dowie;
that. while the contributors Of the
funds did not express a formal dec
laration of trust, trust was created
and Dowie had no right to treat the
property as his own.
The court refused to appoint Alex
ander Granger receiver for the reason
that Granger made a VOW recognizing
Dowie as "a messenger of the COW
enant, the prophet foretold by Moses
and Elijah the Restorer," to which
VOW "all family ties and obligations
and all relations to human govern
ments shall be held subordinate" The
court said he was not obliged to re-
pose confidence in a man so consti-
tuted that, living in this republic, he
would serenely VOW his readiness at
all times to abandon his family and
betray his country

The court ordered an election on the
third Tuesday of September of a gen.
eral overseer, all members Of the
church residing in Zion City, male and

Later In the day John C. Hately

The effect of the decision Is to

Next week Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday comes the great event of the
fall in Newtown, the Newtown fair.
We feel confident good weather will
be served out, and a successful fair
will result. The balloon ascensions on
Wednesday and Thursday will interest
and attract the children and young
people, and their parents as we'll.
Chairman Peck OF the speed depart
ment reports fine string of entries
for the racing. THE BEE asks the CO.
operation OF all public spirited citizens
who like to see local enterprises pros
per. By all means plan some exhibit
from your farm, garden or orchard,
while the ladies can be depended on to
make their department complete and
interesting. On cattle day (Tpesday)
in past seasons has been seen or the
NewtoWp Fair grounds the largest
string of cattle exhibited at any fair
in Connecticut, in the line of working
cattle and steers, even excelling DAN
bury. This year we look for an equally
large showing. Let all lend hand to
make this years fair a success. The
BEE is gratifed to state that a New
town lady, Miss Blake, of Castle Ron
aid, has made good to the association
the handsome gift Of $lOO annually
given the Newtown fair by the late
Peter Lorillard Ronalds. This gener.
Gus donation of Miss Blake is greatly
appreciated by the Fair directors, and
will give the fair good impetus. We
wish others of our well-to-do citizens
would initiate her gift in larger OF
smaller sums, as their generosity
might dictate. And just a word re
garding local attendance. Don't be
long to that class Of citizens who woult
