J., April 2.—If Billy Sunday renews his attacks on the| Unitarians in the course of his revival, which will start here on Easter Sun-| day, he will find the denomination prepared to strike back at him hard.; Sunday's comments on Unitarianism in Philadelphia have aroused the en- tire church. The Unitarians have hired one of the largest halls in the city, only four blocks from Sunday’'s tabernacle, where pamphlets replying to the evangelist's atacks will be is-| sued, beginning on Monday. ~ Tae counter fire and defence are expected to result in the organization of a Unitarian church in Paterso:a. “Sunday called us ‘fools’ and ‘mutts’ in Philadelphia and rubbed it in hard,” said the Rev. A. R. Shelander, Unitarian pastor of Passaic, last night, “and we thought it advisable to be prepared for him here. We are not afraid of what he is going to say, nor do we fear that -ie is going to hurt us, We expect to gain by him. Plenty of Speakers. “His attacks will arouse interest in Unitarianism and persons will go to Orpheus hall to find out what it is.

IFlags are beginning to appear over the streets and the name of Sunday is on the lips of every one, It ix expected that the biggest crowd that ever welcomed a visitor to Pater- son will gather to see or take part in the big parade.

FEleven fife and drum corps and four bands, 450 musicians in all, will give snap to the swinging feet, and if the crowd starts to sinz some of the Sunday hymns, which thousands know it will not be a great surprise, That the spirit of the evangelist has reached the town before him is shown by the large numbr of conversions uc- complished in Paterson churches. There have been at least 1,000 in the last three months, of which 125 have been converted by the Rev. Charles Schweikert. Resorts in the town are anticipating trouble and are begin- ning to close.
