A MEMORY OF THE APOTHEORIS OF DOWIE.
"H a surplice and a collegé cap doesn't make | a woman goodlooking, she's hopeless."
The girl who said it had of course graduated in beauty without the aid of academic robes. he was American, and sat by my side in the gallery of Shiloh Tabernacle, Zion City, while John Alexander Dowie was translated into Elijah (1.
The stagecraft was superb; the central figure a madel for every actor-mannger: but the remptations so often associated with the stage were absent. It was a Sunday in September, 1904. Special trains were being run from Chi. cago to Zion: the apotheosis of Dowie bad bean Jargely advenized, Zion is the most dreary et in Christendom. A vast, fat expanse; wooden houses dotted here and there for no Apparent reason. looking almost indecently naked in the total absence of protecting hedges or walls, with grent splashes of casual prairio thrown in between: apologetic roads, deep rutted, anked by boarded footpaths, the whole, incomplete and homeless, miscalled a city.
All steps turned to the Tabernacle. Here and there were hands of "The Elect," the inhabitants of Zion, Each wore crosswise over the right shoulder and under the left arm a cheap tricolor band-it was not even ribbon-- it looked to a man's untrained eye like narrow lint, cheap and nasty,
AN ABUNDANCE OF HAND. As we neared the Tabernacle we heard be. hind us, the sound of abundance, of band. We looked round. Nero's triumphal entry into Rome was nothing to it.
A brass band came first, clad in Dowie's unl- form: then a large, open landnu, drawn by n magnificent pair of blar horses seated therein Dowie. The chrysalis „postle in a top-hat sud [525 lark overcoat, and Mrs. Dowie, who, according
to the latest reports, has how repudiated her husband. There followed 'a band of Zion's nalice, also in uniform, carrying banners,
As the envalcade came abreast of a crowd " the elect, manding on the apologetic.foot. nath, the band censed, the procession 'paused, Dowie rose to his feet in the carriage, took off his top-hat, and "Peace be unto you" was Consignees of Caro by the above-namedhurathed towards us, and the elect, the tricolor vessel are hereby informed that their Goods are being landed and placed of their risk in the Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Company's Godowns at Kowloon where each consignment will be sorted out Mark by Mark, and delivery, can be obtained as soon as the Goods are landed.

The Tabernacle is all wond ; and holds 7,000 people at the east end is a great gallery for the choir, stoping down to the big platform or stage, on which the actor-manager was to play bie supreme farce. We obtained places in the front row. As we waited-the hall was still- empty-we could catch glimpses through the apposite windows of the hosts of Zion being marsballed
INTER THE ELECT. Suddenly the big doors at the west end awng open. The band, standing just outside, struck up the "Two Step," and the followers of Dowie entered to do him honour. For forty minutes they marched in, organised, relentless. So confusion, no crushing, but every sent was full It was the breath of the wind on the struding cara, bawing every blads to one mas.
All claims must be presented within ten days of the steamer's arrival tier after which date they cannot be recognised.

Hie long, white hoard fell over a gorgeous white robe, and on his head was a twisted turban. Dowie is rather short and stout, his figure is not suited to this Oriental extravagance.
Dowie nid a few opening words; then came a quaint, worldly touch, linking this weird Israelitiab figura reminiscent of the Tabernacle and the forty years in the wilder ness with the latest devalopments of modern science. He said; "There are many of the faithful in various lands who desire samo memorial of this great day. I am going to read a lesson from Scripture: While I do so, please all keep as still as possible, for here"- and he turned and pointed to a man with a huge camera in the top corner of the choir
