Creed of Dowieites Not
Shaken by Failure,
FANATICS EXPLAIN DEATH
Funeral of A. G. Brockwell, Who Died
After Steadfastly Refusing Medi
cal Aid, Furnishes Occasion
for Exhortation by Elder.
The funeral of A. G. Brockwell, the
Dowielte who died at his home on
Twenty-ninth street Monday without hav
ing received medical attention during the
several weeks of his illness, was held
j-esterday afternoon at 1 o'clock from the
family residence. The services were con
ducted by Elder Ernst, of Seattle, who
had devoted most of his time during the
past two weeks in attempting to heal the
sick roan by prayer. His discourse was
an oxhortatlon to those present to live
their lives according to the Scriptures
as Interpreted by Elijah II, and to follow
his teachings In all things. There was
not much time devoted to the dead, nor
were there any prayers for the repose of
his soul. It Is evidently only the living
in which the Dowieites are Interested.
That he failed to heal the man by the
power of his prayers was a matter Elder
.Ernst did not go deeply Into, but he re
marked that the departed brother re
cieved many blessings Inasmuch as he
had not suffered any pain during his ill
ness, which was due to the prayers offered
In his behalf and his belief In them.
The wife, while grief-stricken over the
loss of her husband. Is still of firm be
lief In her strange creed and feels that
she did exactly right In relying entirely
upon prayer to heal him. She Is a woman
of unusual refinement and education, and
has raised her three children well, and
yot this new cult has seized upon her,
and in Its clutches she has become a
fanatic
The Coroner yesterday directed an au
topsy to be held, which was done by
City Physician 2an, who says the de
ceased came to his death through auto
intoxication, due to the accumulation
of fecal matter in the Intestines. This
accumulation was caused by neglect of
the patient, no medicines having been
administered to remove or prevent It.
Coroner Finley seriously contemplated
some arrests In connection with the case
nd consulted legal authorities about the
matter, but finally decided as Brockwell
was himself a party to the conditions
that he would not take any action. "Had
It been a child, the arrests would have
been promptly made, but as the patient
was an adult and apparently in his right
senses as far as one with such a belief
could be, we feel that nothing could be
accomplished by such a step."
Eldor Ernst, who seems to be tho com
mander of the Dowie forces on this part
of the Pacific Coast, seems quite cheerful
over the turn matters took with his latest
case of "healing." But he frankly ad
mitted that once a man was dead he did
not bother him nny more. It was to the
living he gave his thought and attention.
"What's the use of praying for him
after he Is dead? "We did all that before
he died, and if a man is not ready to die
when the time comes, why praying for
him afterward Isn't going to do any
good."
"How do you account for your prayers
not being answered in this case. Elder?"
"Well, there seems to be something
wrong. I hardly know what it was, but
sometimes it goes that way. The man
received great blessings, however, great
blessings. Ho did not suffer one pain
after the first time we prayed for him,
and wo thought to the last that he would
surely be healed. But as he was not we
don't question the reason. We leave those
things with God. He could have healed
him If He bad seen fit to do so, but as
He did not, it does not cast any reflec
tion on the patient or his sincerity."
"Was Mr. Brockwell willing to go?
"Was he resigned to die?"
"I think, of course, he would rather
have lived; but? am sure he was prepared
to die at any time, as all true Zionists
arc I think ho expected to be healed by
our prayers, but as he was taken we feel
that his soul has been saved and that he
Is now at peace and awaiting the great
end. To be healed by prayer is what
Christ taught whn He was on earth
and if He healed men then why not now?
1 have seen many wonderful cases of
healing with my own eyes, and I know
that the sick can and will be healed If
earnest and persistent prayer is offered
and the suppliant is sincere in his be
lief. "Our belief? Why, we believe just ex
actly what the Bible teaches us that
Christ Is the redeemer of the world, that
He walked among men and taught them
to iray and healed them. Why should a
believer employ worldly assistance when
he has his Christ to go to? No, we are
not In any way like the Christian Sci
entists. They do not acknowledge sick
ness, out we do Just as Christ did. But
God does not want His children to be
slek. He wants them strong and well,
and He puts It in our power to have
thm so by praying that they be healed.
I know of one case where a woman
w converted to our faith who had been
a helpless Invalid for 13 years, and her
haDband was a doctor, too! But he
couldn't do her any good, and for all
these years she had not walked, but we
healed her right away and now she Is
as well as anybody. I saved my own
child twice by prayer, and he has never
had a drop of 'medicine In his life. I
could tell you of hundreds of cases that
have come under my observation; Noth
ing but the prayer does it."
"How do you account for Dr. Dowle's
failure to save his daughter after she
was so badly burned?"
"That was an example of punishment
for disobedience. Her father told her not
to use alcohol in the house, but she did
It anyway, and as a result she was
burned almost to death. But although
she had got the flames Into her lungs
and breathed them until her very vitals
wore burned, by prayer she was enabled
to become conscious and talk until the
last, and not a pain did she suffer."
The small crowd of faithfuls which sat
around the room eagerly drinking in the
elder's ever- word presented a strange
appearance In the twilight. The shaggy,
unkempt beards of the men and the un
naturally bright eyes of the women were
suggestive of fanaticism. At each men
tion of Dowle's name they would bend a
little closer to tho elder, and their faces
would shlno with enthusiasm and relig
ious fervor.
Another patient Is claiming the atten
tion of the elder, but the name could not
be learned.
BRYAN ARRIVES IN ENGLAND.
Doe3 Not Think He Will Run for
President Again.
LIVERPOOL, Nov. IS. William J.
Bryan arrived here tonight from the
United States. He was Interviewed by
numerous newspaper correspondents, and
said he was Intensely Interested In Eng
lish sociology problems, and that he
wanted to hear and learn as much as
possible of the fiscal discussion now go
ing on. He has arranged to hear Herbert
Henry Asqulth speak on this question to
morrow, and to listen to the speech of
Joseph Chamberlain Friday.
Mr. Bryan said he Is merely an onlooker
so far as the fiscal discussion is con
cerned. Speaking of the next presidential elec-
tion in the United States, Mr. Bryan said
he thought he would not be again a
candidate, but nothing had as yet been
decided. Mr. Bryan will remain for some
time in England and will then go to
France.
PBEEHDS OF THE SABBATH.
Association 16 Formed to Make Pub
lie Keep Sabbath.
To enforce existing statutes as far as
possible and cause the enactment of bet
ter laws regarding Sunday observance is
the principal object of the Northwest
Sabbath Association. This association
was organized at a convention which has
been in session at the First Presbyterian
Church for the past two days by pastors
of all denominations throughout the city.
Rev. J. H. Iiepper, a visiting pastor, has
been the main Instigator of the new move
ment. The local pastors have gone into
the work with great energy and zeal, and
they hope by their efforts as an associa
tion to do away with a very great deal,
if not all, of the Sunday recreations now
so generally Indulged in by the public at
large. Rev. Mr. L-iepper is a Presbyterian
from Pennsylvania and has for some time
I been engaged exclusively In this partic
ular line of work. He feels very mucn
encouraged with the prospects for good
work being done here, especially when the
big Exposition opens. The closing of the
Exposition gates on Sunday has been a
subject much discussed by the new as
sociation, and the members to a unit
are in favor of strict Sabbath observ
ance. Sunday excursions and baseball
and kindred sports are to be attacked,
and the greatest effort made to do away
with everything in this line that will
make this holy day any other than a day
of rest and religious observance.
At the first meeting, Tuesday afternoon,
the association was organized and a con
stitution framed and adopted. The elec
tion of officers resulted as follows: Pres
ident, William M. Ladd; first vice-president.
Judge W. D. Fenton; second vice
president, A. F. Fiegel; corresponding
secretary. Rev. J. H. Gibson; recording
secretary. Rev. E. Nelson Allen; treas
urer, S. C Pier.
The payment of one dollar constitutes a
membership. The ministers will strive to
enroll as many members as possible.
A number of excellent addresses have
been delivered before the convention,
among them: "The Sabbath and the
Northwest." by Rev. J. H. Gibson, D. D.;
"The Lord's Day and the Liquor Traf
fic," by Mrs. Helen D. Harford, president
State W. C. T. U.; "Standing Against the
Drift," by Rev. E. L. House, D. D.; "Tho
Lord's Day and the Lewis and Clark Ex
position," Principal J. R. Wilson, D. D.,
and "The Sabbath and the State," by Rev.
J. H. Talbott, D. D. In these different
addresses the origin of the Sabbath was
gone Into and the many precepts of the
Bible to observe the seventh day as one
of rest and cessation from toll were re
viewed, and plans formulated by which
the association might accomplish such
an observance of the day. While some
of the speakers had more stringent ideas
than others as to how the Sabbath should
be spent, all agreed that the public at
large spends it In a way that is demoral
izing. The public now regards it as a
day for indulgence in sports and good
times of all sorts, while many attend to
business matters the same as on week
days, and to put an end to all this will
be the earnest effort of all members of
the Northwest Sabbath Association.
BLOCK WAS IN DANGER.
Fire in Hamburg Cafe Threatens to
Do Much Damage.
Fire which broke out in the Hamburg
Cafe, G4& North Third street, at A
o'clock yesterday morning burned fiercely
for a short time, causing about $6000
damage. A strong -wind was blowing, and
but for prompt and efficient work on the
part of the fire department tho entire
block would have burned.
The origin of the fire Is unknown. The
flames were first discovered by Jack Hoar,
a watchman, and by the time the fire
department arrived on the scene they
had enveloped several of the small wooden
structures on the eaBt side of Third street
between Davis and Everett.
L. Semler's stock of new and second
hand goods was slightly damaged by
water; H. Adler's stock, worth about
54000, and Insured for one-third that sum,
was destroyed by water and fire, and H.
S. Goldman's stock, valued at 53000, was
damaged In the sum of 51000, the amount
of his lnsuxance. The Hamburg Cafe,
valued at 51000, was totally wiped out. It
is uninsured. B. B. Rich's news stand
was considerably damaged.
AMERICAN TROOPS LAND.
Force to Subdue Jolo Rebels Is in

MANILA, Nov. 18. An unofficial report
says the captain of a United States army
transport has landed reinforcements in
Jolo, and that fighting commenced as soon
as the troops were landed. No further
particulars have been received, as the
cable is Interrupted.
Aversion to. Friars Dying Out.
ROME, Nov. 18. A report has been re
ceived by the "Vatican authorities from the
Philippine Islands giving an account of
the opinions expressed by the Mayor of
-Manila on the present situation of the
friars in the inlands. The Mayor thinks
that with the exception of a few. who are
irreparably compromised In the eyes of the
natives, the new American bishops ought
to make efforts for the retention of the
friars In the islands, as the aversion of
the Filipinos to them Is gradually dying
out. The Mayor believes that If intelli
gently employed these friars would be of
the greatest use to the Government of the
Philippines, as they are ramlllar with the
language, habits and needs of the people.

RESIGNS TO GET PAY
Rev. H. D. Chambers Wants
$315 Back Salary.
PREACHED FOR $40 A MONTH
Vestry of Good Shepherd Episcopal
Church Agree to Raise the Sum
In Order to Settle Contro
versy In the Parish.
If the Good Shepherd Episcopal Church,
of Upper Albino, will' pay $315 back salary,
Rev. Henry D. Chambers will resign. In
fact he has already written out his res
ignation to take effect December L on
condition that the church pays Its debt
to him before that time. Mr. Chambers
has for some months eked out a temporal
existence on $40 a month as the result
of the efforts of the church vestry to
freeze him out, and he evidently feels that
it will be profitable for him to resign if
he can, by that means, collect his $315.
The vestry Tuesday night agreed to raise
the money.
Here are different versions of the church
imbroglio:
"This Is simDly another case where the
pastor has been too progressive," said
Mr. Chambers yesterday, "and wanted to
go ahead too aggressively; that's all.
You might see J. C. Jameson. He is a sort
of political leader, and was elected mem
ber of the vestry to head the opposition
to me."
"What is the difficulty?" repeated J. C
Jameson. "Why, he wanted to run the
whole business without any reference to
tho vestry or anybody elBe. The vestry
has the management of the finances of the
church, but Mr. Chambers undertook to
rldo over the vestry on every occasion.
At a meeting that had been called he
saw that the audience was against him
and he undertook to adjourn it, when 1
objected. This has been his policy all
along." v
"It Is my Judgment that it was tho best
thing for Mr. Chambers to resign, and I
so lnformed'nlm," said William Tappen
den, one of the oldest members of the
church. "His want of tact and arbitrary
methods have antagonized the members
so they will not support him. He has
been Indiscreet 'In his remarks about
members. Mr. Chambers does not fit the
conditions of the church, although the
parish is In a flourishing condition."
The controversy in the church has been
raging since last March, when Mr. Cham
bers announced from the pulpit that he
would resign unless he received moro
cordial support from the vestry and the
members. On tho other hand the vestry,
feeling that the rector had been too ar
bitrary in his methods and had tried to
run the finances and other affairs of the
parish, very cheerfully and promptly
offered to accept Mr. Chambers resigna
tion; and in fact, urged him to resign as
the very" best thing tp do. Mr. Chambers
changed his mind and did not resign. The
vestry then declared that he should re
sign even If they had to freeze him out by
withholding his salary, announcing: "We
will not be responsible for your salary
after June." The matter then went to
the bishop, who simply advised the parish
to fix up their differences. It wa3 then
carried before the diocesan board, com
posed of Dr. Morrison, Rev. George B.
Van Waters, Dr. S. E. Joseph! and some
others, which decided that the vestry had
no authority to withhold tho salary of
the rector, and the vestry admitted It was
wrong In its position." The resignation of
Mr. Chambers then followed.

DENVER. Nov. 18. John Otto, who was

ADOPTED THE TWIN
And Built Him Up.
A lady of Des Moines, Iowa, who re
cently adopted a baby boy had an ex
perience In feeding the youngster that
may prove interesting.
She says: "Three months ago I took a
twin baby. He was so weak and puny
at the time that I believed I would never
bo able to raise him.
"I found that the only food he could
keep on his stomach was Grape-Nuts and
when I began to feed this regularly to
him he began to thrive. In two weeks tie
showed marked improvement and- he Is
now a fat and healthy boy and has at last
caught up with his twin sister who was
always ruddy and healthy. He is certainly
a fine little fellow, thanks to a fine, pure
and scientific food." Name given by

Grape-Nuts contains all the constit
uents of a complete food and the whole
Is predlgested (by a purely mechanical

When the Roses Bloom
Over two thousand rose trees of
choice variety are now being set
out in Holladay Park Addition
covering a distance of four miles.
When these roses bloom in the
Spring the beautiful appearance of
this modern residence district may
be well imagined. The success
which has come to the promoters
of Holladay Park Addition has ex
ceeded their expectations. Over
one-third of all the lots have been
sold, and every one of them to
homebuilders a fact which is shown
by the large number of handsome
residences already built and occu
pied. Preparations are well in hand
for more extensive building opera
tions in the near future. Holladay
Park Addition has already become
the most favored of all the residence
districts of Portland. See it for
yourself, and for full particulars as
to prices and terms apply to
