on the statute. and expressed the fear
that unless the statute were recognized
as constitutional the courts could ex-

held that as the court was created by

MErHopIsTs INVADE ZION.


Zion City, Ill-"We win fight this
invzsion to the death" il the state
ment attributed to General Oversee1
Glenn H. Voliva, of Zion City, REFER
ing to an invasion of the sacred pre-
cincts Of Zion by the Methodists, who
recently dedicated q modest chapel in
side the city
Bishop Mcdowell and long list of
Methodist dignitaries assisted in the
ceremonies, and they say they are in
Zion to stay and grow If 30 they win
probably prove an extremely large
thorn in the flesh Of Oversecr Volivn.
for the excellent reason that his own
camp is badly divided The independ-
ents in Zion hailed the advent Of the
Methodists warmly and sent deiega-
tion Of elders to the dedication Of the
chapel
The new church will have the back
ing of business interests outside and
Overseer Voliva has the battle of his
life cut out If he undertakes to exter-
inmate the invader.
The Methodists dedicated their
church in the forenoon, and in the af-
ternoon Voliva, speaking at the taber-
naele, hurled his defiance. This draws
the lines of battle clearly and some in
teresting developments may be expect
ed
The Methodists will seek out the
suffering in the city and not permit
them to die without attention. The
recent case of an aged elder being
suffered to expire Of a rsttlesnake
bite, while Voliva refused aid aside
from the customary prayers is case
in point
Voliva, it is understood, had Just
his dream of securing control
Of a majority of the land holdings, in
which case he would have become a
dictator more powerful even than was
John Alexander Dowie, founder of the
city.
At present there is strife between
the aldermen, two sets claiming cleo
ton. After the death of Dowie and
the subsequent failure, the advent of
a receiver tore down much of the Chin
csc wall surrounding the CITY, The
followers Of Dowie broke up into nu-
merous factions, which warred upon
each other. Voliva has succeeded in
aiigning several of these factions with
MS cause, but the opposition still is
very strong.

Benefit French Working Girls.

Paris-The decree of the ministry of
labor prohibiting night work on the
part OF seamstresses, milliners and
other working girls. which became
effective July l, marks a great for
ward step in the movement for the
amelioration Of the condition of the
women workers of France. For many
years the sweating system has been
greatly abused in France, and especial
iy in Paris, where the employees in
many fashionable dressmaking and mil
iinery establishments have often been
compelled to work until midnight dur
ing the busy season.
