to acceptance, but confined himself to
laying that, of course, It was known
that he had conio to. Virginia on a mis?
i-lori of great delicacy. .
The reception that .was. given his re?
marks was extremely cordial, and un?
doubtedly that the audience, If railed
upon to vote, would have given unani?
mous approval of the board's selection
of the first president of this Institution.

P. Patton, city superintendent of schools.
Frayer was offered by tho. Rov. William

"A ehort time ago I found my condition
very eerlouo, I had headaches, pains In
the back, and frequent dizzy apella which
grew worse every month. I tried two
remedies before Peruna, and was dis?
couraged when I took the first dose, but
my courage soon returned. In less than
two months my health was restored."?

Tho reason of bo many failures to

LOUD HISSES
GREET DOWIE
Called King Edward an An?
ointed and Cunning
Rascal.
Dwindling nudlonce!*, nn?fs the New York
Herald of yesterday, heard .lohn jUexander
Dowle berate King Edward and praise Pres?
ident nousevelt 'yesterday at Carnegie Hnll.
indulge In his familiar tirades about "tin*
reptile, pre*.?*," taking occasion several times
to deny that he. had created a scone In tho
amoklng room of.tho oteamshlp Lucania.
jVt the morning session twenty-eight men
and women wero In one gallery and the first
thirteen rows of tho orchestra contained about
four hundred and titty men, women and children
At tho afternoon session, there wero only
about seventy-five moro men, women antl
children than were present In tho morning.
Twice loud hisses greeted Dowle. The first
timo was when ho said: "I am not going to
say anything about King Edward until 1 get
back to ?lon City. I said King Edward has
no piety to spare, and you can find my exact
words In "The Leaves of Healing," Zlon'u i
organ. In fact, he, I said, was llko unto thn I
condition of Job, who, you remember, es?
caped by the skin of his loeth." ?
Loud hissed and somo faint applause followed
this, and Dowle went on: "Two wanks ngo )
to-day. King Edward went down to tbe Duko :
of Devonshire's to see somo of Ills horses that j
were to rim tho following day, to g<*e soni?
pointers."
Hearty npplausi) greeted a man who salii
audibly, "And he's a good Judge of horses,
too."
The second time that thn meeting threatened
to become stormy, was when Dowle again
attacked King Edward, culling him un
"anointed and cunning rascal." Waving his
hands in Urn air and raising his volco to a
screech, hn sttOdn up and down thn platform,
saying: "Thero never was a viler prince cursed
England than lie, who is now King Edward,
It's true, and t can. provo it."
Audience Hisses. ^
Half the audience hissed loudly, and this
seemod to enrage Dowle. He trembled with
anger and shook his fist at the audience. A
few applauded and some clapped their hands.
Dowle shouted In a high falsetto tone: "Oh,
you, you?there nro only two creatures that hiss,
the viper and Ihe goose. Take your chotee.
I was amateli to know that my few remark?
In England hud shaken, tho throne. It only
shows how weak It Is."
Thou h? changed to American politica.
"When you get a. good man," ho shouted,
"why don't you keep hi m in ottico? That's
what you'd da hi any business, wouldn't
yon7 But you change every four yoars. It's
all a business blunder, this petiial chungliig.
"When l como lu Now "York again, l'in

great wrong I'm not afraid to loll htm; but
Jin is too good a nuin to do a wrong."
Thero were nonni imii'iuui. lit this, but no
applause and uu hissing.
Thou ho went on to criticise politics and
political managers, saying politicians are like
a pack of cards?tho more you shuffle them,
the dirtier Ihey got. They drink vile liquor
nnd thoy smell o? tobacco. I guess you all?
know that, oliainpagno nt night means real

With Mincing Step.
At this Juncture the speaker gave an imi?
tation of a man dawdling along smiAing. that
evoknd laughter from the audience, for he
lifted his long robn and walked with mincing
ptfp?, holding his fingers b?-fore his fac?* and
affecting to blow away clouds of smok??. Twbjn
the contribution boxea were passed, but the
gifts seemed to be meagre, and no mention?
was ms/Je ot any evening service after he
small attendane? was noted.
Some surprise was expressed at tho open?
ing of the morning session when Dowle said:
"I am not going to be hero long, for I have
much personal business to atbaul to," hut Im
quickly caught himself and said, "or rather,
Zlon's business." He said his little band In
this city would have a "tribune baptism" at
nlng. but would not say whether ho would par
nlng, but would not say whether ? would par?
ticip?t??.
On the- platform, seated on either side of
Dowle, were his wife, June Dowte, general
overseer of th-feminine adjuncts of his enter?
prises; his son, A. J. Gladstone Dowle: Miss
Ruth Hofer, the attractive young Swiss girl,
who Is said lo have devoted herslt and her
wealth to Zlon, and -whom, It was reported,
Dowio hopes his son will wed; Deacon New
comb, who had made the trip around th?
world with the Dowles; Deacon Corlett, of
this olty, who has charge of the Zlon laco fac?
tory output In tho East; Carl Stern, "the best
Chief of Pollco Zlon City ever had," and
tils wife, Deaconess Carrie Wade, who sans
a soprano solo, nnd Deacon Excell th?
ecclesiastical secretury of tho general over
senr.
The women wore mortar board hats und
black or white robes; the men wore black
roxes, excopt Dowle, who had the tricolor,
purple, buff and whlto hood, and whose rob?
was lined with royal purple.
