There Is a report in Waukesha that
the members OF the Meropolitaa
Church association are negotiating i
deal fol the transfer Of the Fountain
House property for that section a
Zion City which is still held BY Vol.
iva and few oil the former Dowie-
ties. The terms Of the exchange have
beal agreed upon, it is said, and only
the details are to be determined be,
fore the deal is consummated.
The Metropolitan Church assccia
tion, or the Holy Jumpers, as they
are better known, purchased the
Fountain House from the Latin es-
tate two years ago for $4,000. Real
estate men agreed that $4,000 was
less than one half OF the true value
of the property, but that the church
association made the offer at the
right time and it was accepted
Zion Now Like Other Cities.
There Is only small part of Zion
City which now belongs to Voliva
Dowie's successor, and his follow
ers. The city has become a municiD
alty which is now operating under
the same form OF government as 9th
er cities of Illinois. For years the
affairs of Zion were conducted along
the Hines ie.ii uuwn Wy i1iiss~a. II, hht
after he had taken his last trip
South and his power was taken from
him there grew sentiment among
the inhabitants for return to the
old way and the methods of other
cities.
During the regime of Dowie mil
ons of dollars were spent In the CON
struction of a city to conform with
MS ideas. Municipal manufacturing
plants were operated for some time,
md the business in the stores and.
other commercial channels was look
ed after by the overseer and his as
sistants Smoking and drinking were
always prohibited, these rules max
ng Zion the center of attention to
ourists and others passing from iii
lois to Wisconsin through that sec
ion OF the country.
Closing up in Courts.
With the downfall of Dowie and his
leath came the announcement that
Voliva had taken charge of Zion. His
word was taken with authority for
months previous to Dowie's death,
out there were many who remained
oval tothe founder of the city. This
livision in politics made it impos
iible to reorganize the municipality,
md the affairs of Zion City are now
icing closed up in the Chicago courts.

Jumpers Abused.

The Holy Jumpers have not had
the most pleasant experiences during
their residence in Waukesha. Their
street meetings have frequently been
interrupted with showers of rotten
eggs, and many of the sect have been
lodged in Jail on charges Of disorder
ly conduct Damage suits against
the sheriff of Waukesha county have
been instituted in hopes of securing
some redress, and other legal oompli
cations have made the life of the
Jumpers anything but a pleasant one
in Waukeshat
II is because of this feeling against
them that the Jumpers have prepar-
ed to leave. It is whispered that they
have become weary of holding their
services before spectators. who at
tend them only out of curiosity There
are now about 200 OF the Jumpers
with quarters at the Fountain House.
They have made Waukesha their
home fOr the past two years. Their
leader is Duke FarsOn.
