years in library of 10000 volumes,
with which he was thoroughly famil

Dowie landed in San Francisco IN
1888, needing money. He needed
$3.50 and had just told his wife he
had asked God for it," he said, when
came along and put the amount in his
hand. That was the starting point
in his wonderful money-gefting car
eer in the Western world. Two years
of wandering along the California
coast followed, and then in 1890,
DIR" Dowie, his wife, his son, Alex
ander John Gladstone Dowie. and his
daughter, Esther, arrived in Chicago,
which was to be the theater of his
great work
During the next five years Dowie
was arrested at least a hundred ines
for violation of the city ordinances
relating to the care of the sick, but
the more trouble that was made 81
him the more he prospered. Branch
churches were established in other
cities; large hospital for the heal
ing of the sick was built in Chicago
and a college for the training of mis-
sionaries was organized; a printing
plant put in operation and a bank
was also started
The Christian Catholic church in
Zion City, the outgrowth of the orig
NAL International Divine Healing as.
ISOLATION. was formally organized in
February, 1896. Dowie became gen
eral overseer. Four years afterwards
Dowie before large audience in the
Auditorium theatre, announced that
he was Elijah, the Restorer, spoken
of in Malachi. This assumption of a
biblical personality created even more
of a sensation among his followers
than any of the worldly successes of
the prophet"
Previously to this Dowie had mark
ed out his plans for Zion City, the
effort of his life. Six tnous-
and acres of land was purchased or
obtained by options, and in August |
of 1901, the first building was erect |
ed in Zion City, which a year later |
had a population of 10000.
In December of 1908, Zion City was |
placed under control of fedora! re.
which was dissolved a |
week later on Dowie's presentation /
Of ability to pay dollar for dollar for
all indebtedness. At that time Dow

seeding and harvest.
About fifty organizers are to
be secured for work in North
Dakota and under the direction
of Theodore G. Nelson of May
Vile, who is the state organizer
of the society. They will open
the campaign in the southern
tier of counties as soon as the
seeding is completed there and
work northward, going to all
parts of the state. This force
of local organizers will be sup
plemented by another force of
trained organizers, who have
been working in the winter
wheat states and the promoters
of the movement believe that
they will be able to reach the
bulk of the farmers in the state
and influence them to join in
the movement. Even those
who do not join the society will
be asked to sign the pledge.

Breckenridge must stand an

damage suit of Mary Schaefer
against Lucy Schoenborn, who
objected to her husband taking
Mrs. Schaefer on an excursion
to Duluth.
Mrs. Schoenborn remarked
to Mr.. Schaefer that he ought
to be more careful and made
remarks which the lawyers
have ever since been trying to
ascertain whether they are
libelous on their face or not.
The supreme court in a de-
cision filed to-day by, Chief
Justice Start, decides that some
of them are and some of them
are not, although all of them
are too suggestive for current
newspaper publication.
