About 350 of his original followers remained faith ful; and attended these services. Dowie always wore his apostolic robes and made a characteristic address. Five weeks ago these meetings ceased, and Dowie ap peared no longer in public. The Sunday meetings, however, were still held by his adherents. Since that time Dowie had grad ually been failing. Friday after noon, however, there was no indi cations of approaching death. He received a few followers, and prayed for some people. His con dition seemed to be about the same as for the last two or three weeks. One of the attendants re mained with him until midnight, and was relieved by the other at tendant. ' Shortly before 1 o'clock this morning Dowie became de lirious and his talk was the same as at a religious meeting in the days of his prime. He denounced people with the old. time vigor, ordered the guards to throw out disturbers, and acted just as he had on so -many previous occa sions. Ji3 gradually became weaker and weaker, and the at tendant telephoned for Judge Barnesf who reached Shiloh House at 7, a. m. Forty minutes later Dowie died. A Humans Appeal.
