The “ show,” for this is what we would term it, begins a!t about three O'clock. Long .before' the doors to tin's immense building are opened the- crowd has gathered, and is informed , that only those folding tickets will be eutillcd to the fovyer floor, the others must take the upper floors.. This seems like separating the crowd ns “ the sheep and the goats.** “The doors thrown open, there is a mad rush for seats, a s'you qre compelled to crowd to the front as close as possi­ ble in order tha t you' may hear what 1 the “Prophet,” John Alexander X)owie, has ta say, ’ ' T The first'person to make ah appear­ ance is. ,the orgail,ist, who come3 in ' from a side entrance on the stage and takes.her place a t the immense instru­ ment. She ! b gowned in a white robe, . with black' mortar board .cap similar I t bos never been th e object of the religious column and p u t theiii uuder { Herald to. slight anyone.. The sermon j the class, ot amusements, with eomic i opera, drama, bUrlesqUe, horse racing, | came after several chanted prayers and announcements, the gist of which touched on “ Free Masonry" and the “Komap Catholic Church.” The Dr,'a method of preaching is quite different from that o f most ministers, and if what he said is called a sermon many ministers are what might be termed “»behind the times.” “Yet this.could not be taken in this light alone, for there aye many things done m Chi cago that are^quite different to Buck­ eye methods, and, it is a question in our mind if the latter are not the best, after all. To oome back ‘to tbo ser­ mon, the time was spent i n ' reading from lectures that bad been delivered several y era ago on the same subjects before college students in Australia, when Hi*, Dowie was a Congregational minister in that country. The Dr. iB anything, bu t forcible in his Bpeaking. His voice is very weak and no t commanding-as one would imagine for,. Buck a ’ leader,. .H is haughty appearance,'if anything, is disgusting. ’ The question might th«)n he asked; “How then has he gathered such strength?” This can only be answered in one way, and that is by the class of people he has for his fol­ lowers, Not all a re ,by any means what we would say “ second raters,” for helms Borne very intelligent look­ ing people about him, and we rather think these are there only for what they get out of f t financially.

Charles Colyer K y le^on of Henry and Harriot Kyle, was born near Ce­ darville, June 29,1859, and was bap­ tized Sept, 26, 1859; was graduated a t Amity College, Iowa, in 1886 and studied theology at Nemo, graduating: there in 1889, B e was licensed on April 10, 1888, by Xenia Presbytery and ordained and installed pastor of Majors, Nob., on June 16, 1890, by Omaha Pffesbytery; was released from (Majors on April 22, T89(4; was stated supply of CaBtroville, Cal,, from J895 to 1898 and was installed pastor of ridicule the officers for not making .. , . .a . ■ , » m j ' ' , ij - r r .

Also, a t the' same time, from different parts of the house come the deacons, d i e t s etc., all gowned in ■black,The caps'fpr men and women being the- same. The last id the line of procession is the VElijaJi” number two, John Alexander Dowie, his gown being (-somewhat different from <tlie rest, being o f black and white with an emblem o f some -sort on ■ the back ’ The places on the stage are taken with Dowie’.in the 1 center and two of bis confidence men, one on ehcb side- After the invocation .comes the first song of praise, sung to' a tune that has been used- by the,local Presby­ terian nhurches for years, The Scripture reading was taken from Matthew* but there were several Commentations throughout jtjhe read­ ing .a t various times. The press of the city and country came in for very caustic criticisms, the tone of which was that in ail < his preaching there has never a t a-single instance been One report of his Sermons,in the Mon­ day morning jpapers, as there is for ,otber denominations. We ourselves business. The other class- of which we speak is the,, one that contributes to'Zion’s coffers. How anyone could sit lor two or three hours and swallow what Dowie was throwing at the Pope o f the Roman Catholic church when he himself* ^ no. ihore than Pope'of his own church,' is more than can be told. During the sermon when the Rope was coming- in for a- scathing rebuke and that Ihe Christian’ Cath­ olic church would supercede, the Ro­ man ■Catholic* church in a*few years, a chair broke down under, one of the dignified elders on' the right of the platform. Dowfo, seeing this the time to make a “ hit " remarked that it was only the papal walls of Rome falling. This brought out round after round o f applause and in reality was ihelon jy original tiling Baid during the afternoon. During the attack on Masonry several left the-buildiug and i t was cancelled by the speaker that they were all Masons and could apt stand what,he had to say. This again brought out applause'from the faith­ ful, ' ' ’ From a spectacular point of view we doubt if there is anything iri the religious line that equals a Dowie performance in the Auditorium each Sabbath afternoon and i t is no won­ der the newspapers of this city refuse tliinlrtliis unjust—-hence the report.
