“Lige” Dowie Don't Look at Hammond

Hammond Tribune: “Dr.” John Alexander Dowie, his wife and his heir, “Dr.” Gladstone Dowie, the “unbiased,” and aooompanied by Miss Rath Hoper the $1,000,000 Swiss convert passed through Hammond this morning on their special oar over the Niokle Plate. But few were at the station to greet the Zion Oity Father as his oar rolled into the oity. The prophet was not visible. Doubtless he remembered the warm and savory reception given his followers in Hammond some months •go and refused to oast his sanotified optics upon the “stink pot of iniquity,” as he terms Hammond. At any rat 6 Hammond is none the loser by its oddness towards the city.
