FIRST APOSTLE OF CHRIST

JQHN ALEXANDER DOWIE SO M PROCLAIMS HIMSELF CHRISTIAN CATHOLIC CHURCH Twenty-Five Thousand People Crowd Shiloh Tabernacle A Dramatic Scene. f Chicago, 111., September IV. Ten thousand people, loyal followers and wondering onlookers, crowded into jSlriloh tabernacle at Zion City yes terday and listened to John Alexander's dramatic declaration to the multitud. t I am." Fifteen thousand more stood crowded about the doors, unable to secure admission. Such was the latest episode in the life of the man who but a few years ago was fighting with the Chicago police to be allowed to continue his meetings in a small hall in the southern suburbs of the city. It was a stirring sight that met the eyes of the followers of the First Apostle who came in special trains from Chicago and -Milwaukee. Shiloh boulevard was alive with humanity. Near the center of the town marched tho Restoration Hosts. Near Shiloh tabernacle the grass was black with the followers. At 2 o'clock came the call of the bandmaster. A moment later the Zion City band marched down the roadway. Behind them marched the Zion City guards. They were .ioUQw;bHle'VfsWira'' tion hosts." They marched -until the home of the first apostle was reached. There was a moment 's delay and John Alexander Dowie came out. "With him was his wife. Another delay and the journey to the tabernacle was on. Every foot of the route was lined with the cheering faithful. The organ pealed as the white robed choir, 500 strong, entered the great building. They were followed by 500 officers of the church, elders and deacons, wearing the black robes 'of bAlco. And then came the first apostle. Slowy he ascended to the pulpit and looked down up on the sea of upturned faces. There was no applause. Possibly all were stricken silent by his strange garb. First, there was a long robe of white silk. It extended to his ankles. The next garment was ' a robe of purple velvet. It extended to his knees and was fringed with gold. Then came a coat that was truly wonderful. It was of white satin. A miter of white and purple was on his head. His shoes and stockings were white. His announcement of his new office was brief. "I knew long ago that God wanted me to take this high office," he said, "but the time had not come. "Yon1 remember that the coming of Christ was not announced until the proper time. Just so with my becoming an apostle. "I thank God that I have the courage to wear the apostolic and priestly robes. ; "Members of the restoration host, arise." - ; -M . It was the order that many had waited for. "'Do you select John Alexander as first apostle of the Christian Catholic Apostolic church Zion?" "We do," came the chorus. "Will you follow me as I follow the anostlrs of old?" "We will," was the vow. "Will you pray for me while I bring the whole apostlie system into existence T" 0 " "We will," came the mighty answer. This was the climax to what was ice was soon concluded and the hosts departed. Mr. Pat Conley, who has been with the Richmond Loan company for some time, will leave in a few days fTor California.

THE EXTENSION

IS FROM GRIFFITHS TO CHICAGO BY ENGINEER JACKSON LINE TO BE MADE SOON Is a Local Report Today Building of Line" Delayed Through a "Misunderstanding. A report was current in railroad circles Saturday,and was strengthened yesterday and today, that the C, C. & L. (now of the C, II. & D. system) would . complete the road on their ovVliue from Griffith to Chicago. "lie present northern terminus of; ;e C, C. &.L. is Griffith, Ind., about Invent y miles from Chicago, and trackage rights over a minor line give the C., C. & L. entrance into Chieag4 now. A few weeks ago it was reported that the C, II. & D. would nof complete the northern division pf the "straight, road." Chief Engineer Jackson, of the C, C. & L;, Jwas in this city-last w-eek looking oyer matters, and afterward lef t jfor Qriffith, where he was joined by Engineer Albert, of the Pere Marquette; . The engineers went over the route several times, and viewed the connections both at Griffith and Chicago, ft The trip -and the presence of the engineers gives rise to the report that theT' extension will soon be built and the preport is probably true. In the '.negotiations with the C, H. contract stipulated that the C, G' S? L.-should .complete the ex tension at its own expense, and the trip is made by Jackson to estimate the cost of the line. A dispute arose concerning the new extension from a flaw in the contract, and a joint survey of the route proposed is now being made.

TIE CARNIVAL

OPENS

TONIGHT

EVERYTHING TO BE COMPLETED FOR OPENING I . MANY MEN AT WORK All Indications Are That the Cair.ival Will Be a Very Fine One in Every Way. The opening of the Druids' his Jahr Market this evening at South II and Eighth streets will b thrown open to the public about 7:30 or on arrival of the parade, which starts at 7 p. m. Inside the spacious grounds the visiting crowds will be surprised to view the complete transformation, which will be found to have taken place there during the past twentyfour hours. Where yesterday there appeared nothing to attract the eye other than several frames of iimv lumber, a dozen recently, constructed stages and a general appearance of preparation for the coming of some unusual event, is now a city of flittering fronts, many tents, hundreds of gaily colored flags and a thousand or more incandescent globe and arc lamps all ready for da rkne to fall, enabling this light equipment to turn nijrht into the glare of bri-1 test noonday. The great Mundy shows which are to furnish the attractions arrived on the C, C. & L. railway at 11 o'clock last night. The long train that brought them was due about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, but as Mr. Mundy cars are all over sixty feet in length the Erie & W estern had to run tiiem at a low rate of speed and that with some long waits on side tracks cau-ed the delay. Crowds of people were on the grounds all day yesterday as well as at the depot waiting to see the shovr train come in and went home disap pointed. All night long a small army of per fectly disciplined workmen kept busy erecting tents, fronts, the high div er's 138-foot ladders, the death trap loop structure in the hippodrome, the circus seats in the various shows and doing countless other necessary' work, until by the breakfast hour this morning every rope had been made ready and each detail completed in readiness for the opening. The week's fun will continue afternoon and night from the opening tonight and including Saturday night, and every indication points to the affair developing into a record-brek-insr success.
