The long line of heroic Christian men and women who have adorned and enriched her annals are among the very foremost of Chris- tian patriots, scholars and philanthropists, She welcomes all to her side who bear nce to our Lord, who is the captain of our salva- tion. She will gird her armor on to follow Him through all vicissitudes to the conquest of this world.” An Appeal for Unity and Tolerstion. At the Church of the Covenant yesterday morning Rev. Dr. T. 8. Hamlin delivered an eloquent sermon that was in the nature of an earnest appeal forunity and toleration in the Presbyterian Church. “Behold, how good and how plersant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” was his text. Unity, he thought, meant usefulness, brother!; unit; meant growth and prosperity. It was not identity of opinions. Unity was to realize that Chris- tunity is larger than our denomination, or than all denominations, and to aim to make our own church, whatever it may be, not exclusive along the line of opinions, but inclusive along theline of loyalty to Christ. It is to put work for God and man in the foremost place and to strike hands cordially with every sincere and earnest worker. During the course of his sermon Dr. Hamlin referred at length to the famous heresy case that mnst occupy so much ot the attention of the general assembly. FORMER CASES OF DIFFERENCE. “Beg those that lean toward harsh measures,” he said, “to look back to 1810 and 1837, and ask them kindly whether they are willing to have a share in repeating such mistakes. They may say: ‘The case now is very different, the issues involved are more fundamental.’ But so men said in 1837 as compared with 1810, and in 1810 as compared with any previous’ conflict of opinion. So men have always said, yet the questions over which they have from the be- ginning been rending the Lord’s body bave, in most cases, beer soon found to be unessential. | ‘If uny do not agree with the | They may sai church, let them go out and seek a home'else- where.” That sounds plausible, but it involves three very serious errors. “First. That certain men are the church, with whom all others must agree in opinion. ' This agreement in opinion is impossible. The nature of the human mind forbids it. Madison said truly: ‘As long as the reason of man continues fallible, and he is at liberty to exercise it, different opinions will be formed.’ And the assumption of any set of men that theirs are not only the sole true opinions, but also the sole opizions to be tolerated, cannot stand a moment. Who would want to drive out Albert Barnes or Lyman Beecher from the Presby- terian Church today? Who does not regard them as among the very noblest representatives that our church bas ever bad in this or any other land? They were in the minority fifty- six years ago and their views were condemned. But those views have long been recognized as loyally Presbyterian. “Second. ridge no man’s liberty,” it is said, ‘but he must exorcise his liberty outside of our church.” But it is also his church. He, too, hasa birthright in it, He has put into it his whole life. For him to go out is a great hardship. He sees no reagon why he should go. He is as conscious of loving the church as of loving his mother; of being true to it as of being true to his family. To drive him out for an opinion, reverently formed and de- voutly held,is to do him an irreparable injury and injustice. “Third. And itis todo the church quiteas great an injury and injustice, for it is to nar- row it to the few men that can think alike, or that are willing to sav they do, or to sup- their thoughts for the sake of eonformi do not question the legal power of a majority to do this; to exeludeall but themselves. But surely our church has not so read history; has ‘not so learned Christ.’ Certainly American Presbyterianism, in these closing years of the century, wants to be as broad as the New Tes- tament, as inclusive as the fold of its Divine er. pao ees Two Slight Fires.

Last evening Mounted Officer McNamara found a young man driving in the Soldiers’ Home grounds and a young lady was in his arms in an unconscious condition. Thinking something wrong the officer took the party to Dr. Brooks, on Florida avenue near 5th street, and had the doctor investigate the case, and the result was that he found the young lady to be under the influence of wine. The doctor looked fcr a fee, but the young man declined to pay it, and refused to give his name. puta ont Gruss Belt Line Rallway Company Election.

The recent convention of the Republican Na- tional League at Louisville has drawn attention to such organizations, and today a Stam re- cross the headquarters of the simi- Clubs, with headquarters at the Loan and Trust building. Mr. Lawrence Gardner is the secre- tary of the association, and today he stopped work long enough to say something about the work of the organization. “The correspondence,” said Mr. Gardner, “is of the most varied character. People are writ- ing constantly from everywhere, wanting spe- cial information and special documents on all of the great subjects that are now before the country, especially tariff and finangial docu- ments. ‘During the past three months the office has been in receipt of letters from lyceums and debating societies wanting reports and informa- tion. There is another class of correspondence that requires considerable attention, and that is the college debating society. In a great many of the colleges debates have been arranged for commencements, and it is astonishing the number of debates there are on the questions of the day. The work of the office goes on gradually without show, the association not be- ing a believer in the brass band and _torchlight theory of making converts, that day having Passed in politics. In fact ‘so quietly is the work done that none except those directly in- terested have any idea of what they are doing. Mr. W. L. Wilson, chairman of the executive committee, is in the city frequently and assists with his counsel. Gov. Chauncey F. Black of Pennsylvania, president of . the association, comes to Washington about every two weeks (in fact is in the city at present), so that he Keeps thoroughly posted on all that is being lone.” « In regard to the question as to how the asso- ciation acted in relation to applicants for office, Mr. Gardner said that it wasan understood rule with the association that the officers should not interfere in matters of that kind in their official capacity. ‘We have had a great many letters from clubs,” Mr. Gardner continued, “seeking the indorsement of the national association for candidates that they had put forward in their localities, but in every instance it has been refused, as the objects and purposes of the asso- ciation ‘do not contemplate interfering in such matters. In relation to the difference in the plan of organization between the National Republican League aud the National Association of Demo- cratic Clubs it may be said that their entire plans are directly opposed to each other. the republican league bei formed to centralize power of allthe clubs in their national league, whereas the democratic organization is trying’ todo just the contrary, preventing a centralization ‘and leaving all power with the clubs themselves, pe Ee THE EPWORTH LEAGUE. Addresses Made ‘at the Annual Meeting Yes- terday. The Epworth League uf the District of Co- lumbia held its annual meeting yesterday after- noon at3o'clock at Foundry M. E. Chureb. Each chapter of the league in this city sent representatives and there wae a large attend- ance. The speeches were earnest and a great | Fi deal of enthusiasm was shown in the welfare of the league. ‘The first address was made by Rev. Hugh Johnston of the Metropolitan Church. He said that the league now numbers about 6,000 mem- bers and is the greatest army of organized church workers among young people in the world. A great opportunity to do good is held out to these young workers and there is a wide field for their labors. Rev. Mr. Brown, pastor of Foundry Church, followed Mr. Johnston, speaking briefly of the work of the league, its growth and the spread of love of the church and Christian endeavor among the young. Mr. Brown dwelt particu- larly upon the benefits arisiug from young people teaching the young. A young Sunday school teacher cun better win the confidence of hig clase than @ man fifty-five or sixty years old. A testimonial meeting followed the remarks the speakers and closed the session of the Se Commissioner Lyman Talks Temperance Mr. Charles Lyman of the civil service com- mission addressed the meeting of the Father Mathew Total Abstinence Society last evening at the hall corner 5th and G streets northwest. The speaker showed from an economic stand- point how necessary it was for the wage worker to be a total abstainer. Referring to the amount expended directly in strong drink in this country, he said: “Tw thousand millions of dollars a year is the sum expended in this country for drink. Were the country to be taxed by thé government for any purpose for that amount the people would de- clare they were terribly tax-ridden. ‘This is worse than a tax; it isa waste—thrown away. It isa moral waste. Ihave no right to waste anything that comes into my possession, be it Property or money. I am bound morally to use it for a good purpose. Nobodv has ever succeeded in proving that beer bencfits the system. The most intelligent physicians have stated it is not good for medicine. Therefore money expended for it is absolute waste. I will not untertake to discuss how this vast amount of money could be used for the benefit of this country.” For the result of this waste the speaker referred the audience to the in- of mates of the poor houses, the prisoners in the [ penitentiaries and the condemued murderers awaiting the gallows or the electric chair. At the conclusion of the address a vote of thanks was tendered the speaker by the society. Miss Springman recited with good effect “The Martyred Mother.” . ‘Mr. Edward J. Redmond urged those present to do their duty as good citizens by refusing to sign @ petition for a license to sell liquor and influence their friends not to sign. At the conclusion of the meeting ten men took the pledge of total abstinence. aS eT Bishop Kain’s Successor. No successor to Bishop Kain of Wheeling, who has been appointed condjutor to Arch- bishop Kendrick of St. Louis, with the right of succession, has yet been announced. Rev. P. J. Donahue, formerly member of the bar in this city and now rector of the cathedral in Baltimore; Rev. George W. Devine of St. John's, Baltimore, aud Rev. Thomas 8. Lee, rector of St. Matthew's Church in this city, are mentioned as possible success- ors to Bishop Kain. <a ae The Training School for Nurses.
