tory and Patriotism, and Thinss Are APP
proaohinr Turbuisncy when Pastor Hill
lis Intert.cts n Hymn and Restores Peace.
In warm discussion over Just how great q
man Tom Corwn OF Ohio was. and the In
iquity or Righteousness OF the war IN the Phil
ippines. tho members Of Plymouth Church In
Brooklyn forgot the subject Of their regular
weekly prayer meeting last night The sub
ject provided By the Rev. Newell d. Hills was
the forgiveness OF enemies and the forgetting
OF injuries sustained through them. The men
ton Of the name OF Tom Oorwin By DR..
Hills. during the course OF his re-
marks led Thomas q. shearmsn to take
exception TO certain statements made By the
pastor on the ground that they we're inaccu-
rate. while on the subject, Mr.. Sherman
thought II would be . good opportunity to
draw parallel between Corwin's opposition TO
the Mexican War. and the opposition OF GER
tain persons TO-DAY to the war In the Philip
pines. taking the ground that Corwin
was man with the courage OF his
convictions aud should DO an example to
encourage the young men OF to-day TO
came out boil against the Administration
and ths war In the Philippines. Mr.. Sherman
was unsn ercifully sat upon By 8. V. White
few moments later. and nothing but the inter-
position Of o hymn. Automatically suggested
by DR.. Hills. saved the prayer meeting from
becoming, at least mildly. turbulent.
DR.. Hills. after announcing the subject OF
the meeting. went on to say that all men who
had at all strong personalities were bound TO
have enemies. lie said that men who never
male enemies and went through their lives In
bsolpteharmony were OF no use 10 the rest OF
the world and were better OF dead and buried
lie gave many illustrations OF enmties that

the bitterness between Blaine and Conkling
which he SAID, prevented both men from ever,
