Wonderful Career of Elijah Second CHICAGO, Ills., March 9.—John Alexander Dowie died at 7:40 o'clock this morning at Shiloh house, Zion City. There were present with him when he ded only Judge D. N. Barnes and two personal attendants. It had been Dowie’s custom, summer and win ter, to hold religious services every Sunday afternoon in the parlor of Shi loh house. About 350 of his original followers remained faithful and at tended these services. Dowie always wore his apostolic robes and made characteristic address. Five weeks ago these meetings ceased, and Dowie ap peared no longer In public. The Sun day meetings, however, were still held by his adherents. Since that time Dowie had gradually been falling. Friday aft ernoon, however, there was no indica tions <\f ap proaching death. He re ceived a few followers, and prayed for some people. His condition seemed to be about the same as for the past two or three weeks. One of the attend ants remained with him until midnight and was relieved by the other attend ant. • Talked as of Old in Delirium. Shortly before 1 o’clock this morning Dowie became delirious and his talk was the same as at a religious meeting of the days of his prime. He denounced people with tho old timo vigor, ordered the guards to throw out disturbers and acted Just as he had on so many pre vious occasions. He gradually became weaker and weaker, and the attendant telenhoned for Judge Barnes, who reached Shiloh house at 7 a. m., forty minutes before Dowie died. It has been decided that the interment will be in Mount Olivet Cemetery, not far from Zion City. The date of the funeral has not been determined. AVilbur G. Villvln. the head of the faction opposing Dowie In Zion City, today declined V' mike any statement regarding the influence of the death of Dowie on the future of the church, or to discuss his death In any manner. Sketch of Dowie’s Career. John Alexander Dowie was born In Edinburgh, Scotland, May 25, 1847. In 1860 his parents removed to Adelaide. Australia, where for years the youth was clerk in a business house. Here Dowie developed the commercial in stinct that served him so well later in life. He saved enough money during this period to return to Edinburg at the age <of 20 to take a five years’ course in theology and the arts. He became a master of Greek and Hebrew and culti vated a literary tase that resulted in after years in a library of 10.000 vol umes-. with which he was thoroughly familiar. j Six years of denominational activity wearied Dowie. who longed for a larger ' field of operation. He forsook his ! church and in 1878 went to Melbourne, j where he set up a free Christian tab ernacle—the first of its kind—and or ganized a divine healing association, which afterwards became interna tional In character. He became pres ident of this association and gained fame by going out into the country during the prevalence of putrid fever and apparently affecting many cures . . ... cf the Fifty-first Congress Senator ning with the message o- the Pre-ident Pu?b presented many arguments to the , show that the bul embodied a had believe* come more Knowledge of the i policy for the countrv situation and the necessities of the j p ^ Push wa8 a product of the “Old railroads.
