Has Completely Healed Them-What

Concluded from Page I.
He makes his deftewe on the truthful
ness of his works. He cites as a (treat
miracle the result of his prayer for
Sadie Cody. She swears that by some
mysterious power her left ' leu mat
leiihthe.xd three irvhes, and she was
enabled to walk without a limp. IL-r
tlutlves verify her ?tory..
.Miss Cod) was carried Into the home
-it a stretch's, taken from the train a
helpless, doomed woman. The people
of her Indiana town told her f he would
die among- atranjrers. She came to the
tabernacle In htT extremity. She as
serts that all the 'physicians in the
town had pronounced her 'marked for
t'he grave, j wear4 before a notary
that Ir. C. A. Duvkl, In State street,
had Jeclareil hr beyond the assistance
of medical science. Conviction that she
was to be instantly healed, if His the
atlldavlt, came t'he moment she becaine
a resident mt'-mler of fhesinKlng, pray
ing ba.tui. She so told Mr. lKiwie, but
he sent her 'to a room to spend a season
with 'her Hible. Hthers were sent to
bolster up her faith. Prayer lasted two
days, and th-ou the preacher concluded
the time had come for the layimr on of
hands. Miss Cody was carried to tho
healing room and placed upon the sofa.
Mr. lowle listened to her confession of
falvh and clnm prayed; so did Miss
Cody. Mr. lowle concluded his ministration-
by a command to "arise and
walk in the -rume of Uie Lord." Miss
Cody describes In her atlldavlt that she
felt within h'r some terrltto force. She
struggled, and, arising, stood upon 'her
feet. She walked across the room, t'he
tlrst time t'he haU stood without nsslt
ance In a year. Within eight weeks,
she says, she left the hmne a well wo
man. She came to Chicago from Mor
ris.'Ill., to bear witness to the gtuulno
ness of the cures of Jklr. Dowle.
Schoonovers Statement Attacked.
William Sohoonover Is a merchant in
Argus. Itwl. The miracle which ho says
was worked upon him consisted In the
immediate restoration of Vive power of
his legs. Dovvle's neighbors In Kdgvr
ton awnuj ltisUt that he made his atll
davlt for pay, and- charge tihat the
demtc.stratlon was a hippodrome. He
alleges he was carried from a secondary
home to the healing room In the mai
bullJIrv one evening. He arose at the
conlusicn of the first prayer from t'he
lips of the preacher and "was then and
there able 'to and did Tlse u-p without
any aisU';ance at the command of John
Altxacder Dowle to walk In the rame
of the Lord."
Ceorge W. RIggs, whore house is
across the way, witnessed this so-called
miracle. He hoots at Its genuineness,
declaring that the procession of Mpjr.
lng people which followed SufcufrhoveT
were dups and parties fa It 4chcroe to
make an rrprewloy'0'n the neighbor
hood to the enJfhat hostilities might
end. Oyftwfs 'tn the opposition claim
t'haC SrnfKilwVf,r was pafj u ieajn,g
iv. tor in tihe drama.
Mrs. Mary-iiret C. Stafford and Miss
Hlack, who live at 481 Ogden avonue,
have been llstif by Mr. Dowle'a oppo
rltlon as people who have fared 111 at
his hands. They wore forced to bring
suit In court to got payment on a note
for money loan-!. This transaction,
cort them time a.nd worry and morney,
and upon that score It was Insisted
they would decry Mie asylum and re
pudiate the tabernacle. Hut they botlh
uphold (Dowle- and his methods.
Alt a J'hn H-ayden was brought from
LMxori by her husband to be treated fcr
lylin-dn:i?s. Orn eye was completely
darkened and the other. less thin 4ia!.f
u.'-ful. iMr. Dowle opened both, ac
cording to the cloud of witnesses. It In
re-corded under oaths of the members
of the congregation that with the fall-ir-
of the scales thnre also came a vlsl
Uitlor wMtih striprel the body of lo
comotor ataxia. The chapter dealing
with fo-er case recite that she was car
ried Into the healing room by her hus
band and her m-ald.- People who saw
hi-r believed eihe- was truthful In claim
ing to be -helpless, and they profess to
hive ibee-n startled to see her walking
from the room within a few momervls.
She had prayed-1m her faith, the muscu
lar affliction parsed In an Instant ar.id
the eyes gradually wcelved the light.
The Case of .Mrs. Young.
:Mns. AtnandU Toung has contributed
a cushion and a set of braces to the
ffalaxy of trophies which Mr. Dowle
produces as evldn.-.ioe of the success, of
his practice. They are nailed to the
wall A the ranctuofy behind his pulpit,
forming a part rf the eerie of festooinfl
which completely hides the plaster In
fh.!s end. She rfer to these Implc
merls discarded as proof that the pray
ers were powerful In her cause.- She
lives at 6fil(? (r;coby a.venue, and In.'lals
th neighborhood know full well she
was helpless four years. The cushion
was for her back and the brakes for her
spine. F'hyslcians, says Mrs. Young In
her enlihuslasm, advlsoj an operation
to sae hr life. 'She re-fused to submit.
She conceived divine healing os i last
resort ard sat a hopeless listener to
Mr. Dowle In hh-e tabernacle. The ap
pointed moment came. All the surgical
appllunc.es were removed and fhe h'ts
no doubt her good health and ability
to come from a confirmed Invalid to a
dtrong wormr waa due entirely to
prayer.
Mr. Dowle han also affidavits from
his pr-w holder to help him prove to
doubters that It Is not essential that he
be at the side of the allllctcd. Thomas
Wanlcs?, of 6100 Dickey street, has con
tributed sevciul pagen from the court
on this polr.t. Having learned of the
modern wonders In the tabernacle from
the lips of iMr. Dowle, he proceeded to
have all his (family ar.il relatives
brought to th-3 underrtandi'reg. Clifford

He was down with Dicairt dlseae

There was one stason of prayer with

Dr. Sanger Brown has had opportun
ity to knoW exactly all the details lead
in to one of the most remarkable
claim which eveO oame otrtof Zlon.VIt
Is the Instance of Annls Bcfiaelter. Her
declarations,, whloh have bean wluv.iy
spread by the preacher, are to the effect
that Drs. McOraw. . Oxuer. Sang?!,
llrown, Turk. Tinning, and Kyan had
attended her. She ti's she was as help
less as a liabe. uuable to move her arnw,
hands, legs or feet without UUfc-catina

Dr. llrown, in the remarkable affi

the association, of physicians some six
ty in number who united In a verdict
Mls Schattfer had "IJlopathic muscu

name for the trouble the girl. In sim

who haw lived In Y.k-n. He insh.-tM tlvi
ussseinbly of unt'oitunatea has made
life very miserable In the locality, but,
BHidt fioni this- objection, rcasona the
claims of the t-oiign-gation are piepos
teiciiis. Illogical, barbarous mid menac
ing to the HcU-iu-e of the day. "Kit Iter
Dr. Howie iiH right or he Is wrong," ho
agues. "If Dr. Dowle l right, then. In
my opinion, we are pretty near -the 4lnie
of the mlllenium, and we stand a fair
fliow, without any great delay, erf es
tablishing Cod's kingdom upon esiith.
If all thi-sc sick persona can' bo cured
by faith and prayer what Is the use of
having any niedlcal colleges? What Is
the use of having any drug stores?
According to Dr. Dow fee. It Is sinful to
take any medii-lne at all. There .would
be no need of the medleul profession.
"More than that. If allnients of the
body can be cured fry faith it Is logical
to say that any deMek-iwy in morals or
IntellliH't can lv cured by the Fame tll
vlne d!sM-ns.tlon. There would be no
neeed for the Olvle Fi deratlon to clean
the street down town by manual labor.
All we would have to do Is to pray for
a nlee gushing rain every nlRht between
2 and 4 o'clock In the morning, where
It doesn't Interfere with anybody In
that part of the city, where the utror-ts
nro iaved, and all tho dirt will be
Huphed Unto the sewers. We will come
down every morning nnd behold n per
fectly clean city. I claim that this Is
logical. Dr. Dowle may not claim that,
but I tell yon that If ailments of the
body can be cured by prayer then nny
sort of ailments can be cured. What
puzzzles mo la why It should be neces
sary' t"r those who are sick to com?
here, long distances, from other parts
of the country. In order to have Dr.
Dowle cure ttvem. Why could they not
be cured at hoinie?

"Now tlvn. as, I understand It, a'l
that Is necessuy Is to have faith. If
this prouiaijfion Is correct, then we nre
all wrong, and all our human efforts
jCavo beecn In the wrong direction. In
stead r -following up scion'iiiic re
search we should have built up faith us
a cure for alt Ills of every kind. If these
thins ca.n be accomplished by faith,
everything can be accomplished by the
same agency. That being the case, In
my opinion, we would have no need
even of newsapers. When we go to
bed at might we will simply pray to -the
Lord to put us in possession of nil the
news by th? time we awake and In the
mysterious ways ef Providence when
we wake up the next morning we will
know everything that Is going on.

"I know -there are statements In the
Bible of wonderful results of prayer.
These are kgend. biblical legends, and
like all legends must pot be taken lit
erally. The Jews have prayed for 1.800
yoars for a return to Palestine and the
rebuilding of the temple and It did not
avail them. True it Is that they ad
dressed their petitions to the dod of
lfrael and did nit appeal to the Lord
