BALTIMORE, March ls-EIder Gideon
Hammond of Philadelphia. is in Balti-
more TO spread the doctrines of the Chi
cage faith healer DR. John Alexander
Dowie. Elder Hammond spoke last
night at Erdman's Han TO an audience of
about $50 His subject was stated as
How to Get Healed of Sickness and Dis
ease Without Doctors or Drugs"
Much Of the talk was devoted TO de-
nouncinG doctors and cleTgymen. who. he
said. were hypocrites- He said that sick
ness like sin, was the result OF the willy
Vaccinations Of the devil, and as the Only
way to get rid of sin was TO chase the
devil away and repent. so sickness could
be cured by prayerful repentance. Ac-
corcing TO the elder the orthodox met,
cd Of praying for relief and then adding:
If it be thy will is all wrong. for God,
he says, IS as much opposed TO sickness
as 10 sin, ard VIII help drive away one
as wei as the other, so the addition
of the optional clause shows a weak
faith.
Elder Hammond said that rninist ers
have known for q long time that prayer is
the only legitimate method OF healing.
but they have lacked the courage TO s.
inform their congregations because such
a theory is against precolceived notions
Of the present day. RE declared that the
cloth preached repentance with persist
ency and fiUency, but that it displayed
a lamentabIe unwiilinga-ss to practice
the preaching
