Tlio following nJdroM was delivered nt
the il ldlcatory exerciser of the MothodUt
hospital last Tiioiday afternoon by Dr. I ) , K.
Cruminor , clilof of the medical staff , thn
subject being "A physlcnn'a view of the
enterprise. "
Tim hoinltnl U among the most ancient of
the Institutions of history. There li some
evidence that before the Christian era the
tampion of Aoiculnplus wore devoted to the
caroof the nflllctod , ami whllo perhaps ,
mcdlolno end surgery wore Ignored , the worship -
ship of Apollo and the pod of the healing art
dates back nearly twelve centuries before
Christ , and shortly after the downfall of
Troy. Wo are told that in tboso sanctuaries
the object of the worship was to occupy the
imaginations of thn siclc oy witnessing
ceremonies , and to oxclto them to a degree
that \vould produce the desired result. In
the temple of Upldaurus It was the custom
for the slcli to sleep therein , and recovery
followed by the means which the god of
health indicated to them in a dream. Thus
our Christian science and faith euro peonlo
have { jotio back thirty centuries to resurrect
n doctorinu , the moro attractive feature of
which they havi not oven reproduced , for
while the world stands the human race will
not forget the persuasive iullucnco of a
dream.
In ono of these temples on the island of
Cos. Hipnocratos was born 400 years before
Christ , nrnl loarnrd the elements of his art
from thn priest physicians of his time. The
prcat 'Tainer of Medicine" made itascicnce
and taught the natural laws of disease as
ngainst llio belief that it was duo to the anger
of the pods or malicious demons it is fur
ther recorded that Hippocrates joined In the
conflict of opinions on science and religion
that arose among the Greek philosophers of
his time , thus sottlne an example followed
by , perhaps , too many modern physicians.
IJut the word hospital was 11 wl used in con
nection with several Institutions founded
for sick pilgrims near Bethlehem in the year
WK ) , and perhaps few who have not studied
this intmi'sting phase of history will know
that the tlrst hospital for the insane had its
origin Ir Jerusalem in the fifth century.
This glimpse of ancient history , if followed
clown through tbo ages , would show that the
hospital lias been the great field wherein
theology and medicine have joined forces in
their olTorts to elevate tne race , and lessen
the tides of misery and Ulsuaso. This union
today is so perfect and successful every
where that it leaves a very small corner for
those who urge the Idea of a conflict between
science and rcliclon , a conflict , which every
true student of science denies , and every
now truth of nature contradicts.
The nrosent porloction in hospital construc
tion and management has come through nu
merous eras of advancement and retrogres
sion that wo will not attempt to follow. Pe
riods of war and pestilence have been the
great developers of this humanitarian work ,
Our own great war produced results that
have been studied by all the great countries
of the \\orld , and indeed , the past thirty
years represent u progress in hospital work
greater than all the centuries boloro. The
popular dread of treatment in a hospital , so
common among the laity in former times , is
fast disappearing in the light of lesults
nchiovod. Ifthoio Is a veteran present , ho
will remember at onto ttio horrois of hospital
gangionu during the lobolllon , but I am safe
in asserting that should the next live j ears
BOO a repetition of tills uar , &uch n thing
would bo practically unknown. In my stu
dent dajs I watched strong men die from
pyaemia after amputation in the hospi
tal wards but if ono were to
start on a pilgrimage in search of
such n raso now , ho might travel a year
without finding one. In abort , it has como to
pass , that the hospital patient today whether
medical or surgical , has an equal chance for
llfo with his most we.ilthy neighbor , and
with the aid of our skillful nurses and con--
stunt watchfulness , often a bolter cnanco for
rcrovnry than the patient treated at homo.
It Is this fact that makes the hospital of to-
cliiy the great public benefactor ttiat it is. I
"V am proud to claim for my piofcsslon a just
V recognition of Its efforts in this work , a
ioiU , too , not accomplished without many
Gifcrlllcus of time , talent and even of llfo it
self. On tne walls of Uellovno hospital ban ?
paintings of a dozen young physicians , some
almost boyish in appearance , but all showing
the lines of strong courage and noble boar.
ing A tablet with their names boars this
brief but eloquent epitaph , "Died , in this
hospital in the line of duty , duting the epi
demic of typhus fever. " No soldier slain in
battle deserves a richer ciowu than , those
martyrs ,
In addition to the euro of the siclt nnd the
training of younp physicians in hospitals , anew
now feature has of late years arisen. I refer
to the training of nurses. To my mind this
branch of the Mothodlst hospital in this city
will prove of incalculable value and should
bespeak for it the enthusiastic support of the
public. In Chicago , and all largo cities ,
graduates of those training schools are cagor-
IV sought , In fact , the supply does not , incot
the homo demand , Oinah.i and other western
cities must educate nnd train thoirown nurses
nnd 1 am suio your trustees have
n wise selection in Miss Nicholson and Miss
I'frlmmor to assist in this duty.
In behalf of your medic.il staff , I think I
honestly voice the sentiment of every ono
when I assure you , sir , that wo feel an en
thusiastic prlao in this new enterprise. We
believe and know that the Methodist hos
pital can bo made n great nnd permanent In
stitution , a credit to the pioud and prosper
ous city of Omaha and thostato of Nebraska.
To that end I believe that every ono of us
\\ill labor diligently and faithfully.
Tlic Phillips ItrookH Ma I tor.
By request llov. C. II. Gardner , dean of
Trinity cathedral , has prepaiod the following
upon the subject of Dr. Phillips Brooks' elec
tion and consecration as bishop of Massa
chusetts. The matter has awakened a great
deal of Interest and dlscus.sion all over the
conniiyand the following will bo read with
much Interest , especially bv members of ihu
Lplicoiml church in Nebraska.
* Whatever else may enter into the consider-
ntion of Dr. Phillips Brooks' election to the
bishopiic of Massachusetts , certainly it Is
not a question of "churctunanbhip. " Sumo
of Dr HrooUs' most ardent admirers nnd
loyal suppoi tors nro ninon ? the advanced"
lilgh churchmen of tb.o country , nnd It h
will Icnov. n that the gioat Boston priest and
preacher is a broad churchman. There uro
many others perhaps a largo ma-
Joritjof those who must either give
or icfuso to elvo canonical consent
to the dioicsnn election , who diftor seriously
fiom Dr. Brooks on several points and ii >
piot oxiroinoly his conduct , on different oc
casion * nnd yet think that ho will inuko an
ex cvllaut bishop ,
.Multitudes all over the country feel that
ought not , hi n case llko this , to cx > back
of the returns unless there Is evidence of
fraud in the election or some error of lifo or
religion thnt had boon coucualcd from the
oilttinal doctors.
The following extracts nro from a personal
letter which was received so * oral days after
the Nuliraika standing coiuiniUeo luul glvun
formal con uiit to the election. The wrlior is
Kev A. C A. Hull of the Society of. St. John ,
the F.vangolist , rector of tit. John's church ,
Boston. Ho will bo remembered as having
I--T conducted n ' 'retreat" In this city last winter
for Ihu clergy of the dlocoso , and ho is well
known In this country and HnglanJ as n bold
nnd foarlois defender of O.U hello truth and
traditions.
After wilting that ho did not and could not
vote for Dr. Brooks on account of serious
dllTcrcncos of opinion on various points , bo
continues ; "But 1 signed his testl-
moniaU. I could not fuel itmt
lie had tmnsgrojsoj the poetically
Allowed liberty of the Episcopal church. Ilu
has rontnivoned no written l.iw and hi * conduct , -
duct lias not been censured by tlio bishop
under uhoso Jurisdiction ho was. I should
regard the refusal to confirm the election-
Or any serious opposition to t > iU ns nust
disastrous. I cannot thluic it fair to Jud 0 a
man by hnsty utterance ? , as In n "church
congress , " In the heat of debate , or by news *
paper reports , without the context. "
The same nrlest writes an editorial In hU
parish paper from which wo copy : "Tho
election of a now bishop was a much moro
simple matter than many expected. Dr.
Phillips Brooks was elected on the first bal
lot , by a lanrc majority of both the clergy and
parishes. This ts not the choice that many
thought Iwst or wisest ; but It was distinctly
the choloe of the convention ns a body.
When wo have prayed earnestly that in n
matter of such importance , the convention
might bo guided to net according to ( lod's
mind and will , wo oucht to have no doubt ,
that in such decided action o-jr prayers have
been answered , though maybe not In the wiy
In which wo looked for the answer. God
both Inspires nnd overrules man's conduct
of affairs. There are great and obvious ad
vantages In the selection of Dr. Brooks to 1111
the vacant see , 113 there wore great and obvi
ous reasons pointing him out as In many
ways naturally fitted for tbo ofilce.1
The two serious objections against Dr.
Brooks' election arc , 11 rst , an alleged loose
ness of viow.s and vagueness of utterance on
the subject of the apostolic ofllcc. Secondly ,
an association with ministers of other religi
ous bodies on devotional and ceremonial ocea
sions.
In atmvor to the first objection
It can be adduced , on moral grounds , that the
allegations nro misrepresentations , because
the person against whom they are ureed con
templates tlio acceptance Of the apostolic
ofllco , which acceptance involves the most
solemn nnd binding oath of conformity to the
doctrine , discipline and worship of the Pro
testant liplscopdl church in the United States
of America nnd no ono for a moment doubts
Phillips Brook's honesty.
Concerning the second objection It raav bo
fairly stated that whllo many may Justly
think and sny thnt his action , on certain
grounds , was ill advised yet bo did
not contravene any written law
or transgress the practically allowed liberty
of the church to which ho belonged.
If Micro is not rjom for Phillips Brooks In
the house of bisl' ps of the Episcopal church ,
then ho.wcn save the bishops and the
churches.
But wo have reason to hope that the mem
bers of the various stand committees nnd the
bishops before whom this matter Is broueht ,
\\lllrealizothe grounds upon which they
have a right to act , and will uot be moved to
act through prejudice or as the result of
mlsicpresentation.
Pnslors and People.
Ono of the most enjoyable church sociables
that hus boon held in Omaha in a long time
was that given by the young people of tbo
First Baptist churcti last Tuesday evening.
To use n secular phniso sliirhtly altered , they
fniily painted the lecture room of their
church a delightful orange hue , and the lit
erary part of the scheme proved to bo very
interesting. It consisted of an effort on the
part of each couple in the house
to write all the words they could
think of in five minutes , beginning
with O. At the end of each ( ivo minutes tlio
gentlemen would exchange partners nnd an
other race of word writing would begin. The
young ladles wore orange-colored aprons ,
orange ribbons in their hair and then served
orangeade , orange ice , orange cake nnd
oranges.
Appropriate memorial services were hold
In St. Phllomena's ' In Omaha last
Wednesday in commemoration of Bishoo
O'Connor , who died ono year ago. Uishop
O'Connor ' did a great deal of very effective
work during his administration of the Omaha
bishopric and his host of friends will keep his

Deputy Grand Master of Masons Brad D.
SlauRhter lias innugurntcd a new departure
in this srand Jurisdiction in tuo way of of
ficial visitations. He believes that the so
cial features of the fraternity have boon too
long neglected and ho has boeu carrying his
idea into practical operation by notifying
lodges , which ho has been requested by the
grand master to visit , that ho will visit with
them on some nipht other than the regular
nleetius night , and requesting that master
masons and their wives meet In a social way
on some night to bo agreed upon. The
scheme has met with f.ivor and several of the
lodges In tne towns near Omatia have de
rived much pleasure from the practical work
ing of this plan.
Blair lodge was visited In this manner last
Thursday night , the deputy grand muster
being accompanied by his estimable wife.
The members of the lodge were out in force ,
accompanied by their wives nnd an enjoyable
uvoning was spent A banquet had'been
prepared and during the evening an
interesting and instructive address was
made by the deputy prana master , followed
by short talks from several of the members
of the local lodge.
The custom Is a most agreeable ono and
meets with great favor. During the term of
court Brother bhiughtor , in his capacity as
United States mar-hal , is unable to visit the
lodges distant from Omaha but it is snfo to
say this important feature of the order will
not bo allowed to lapse.

The forty-eighth annual mooting of the
Masonic grand ledge of Iowa \ \ 111 bo held
at Cedar Rapids Juno 3 , , ' ) nnd4 , and promises
to ho ono of the most important ever hold.
Ono of tbo matters which will bo brought
to the attention of the grand ledge Is that of
the Scottish rite , which has already given
the Masons of Iowa and many other states
much food for thought.
At the last su.islon of the grand ledge of
Iowa a law was passed requiring all members
of blue lodges in Iowa who were also mem
bers of the gratia consistory of the United
States jurisdiction or its subordinate lodges ,
to vmhdruw from such consistory or sub
ordinate bodies under penalty of expulsion
from the blue lodges.
Following the passage of this law the
grand master appointed n committee , con
sistlnc of L. C. Hlanchnrd , T. K. Erkon-
braci nnd CS. AV. Hall to try all persons
charged with violations of this law. Tbo
following gentlemen wnro notified to appear
bolero this rommlttco ni n givou date and

r.ouo of them appeared In pur ou and they al
were suspended ,
Thcto gentlemen have issued a circular letter -
tor to thi ) masters , wardens and brethren of
all Masouio lodges in Iowa setting forth that
they had , after duo deliberation and oiton-
si vo research , joined an order entirely foreign
to , and without any claim of Jurisdiction ! r
control over anj of the blue lodge degrees ,
but which boa for its object the advance
ment of the internet of humanity aud tbo
cause of virtue , and that they retained their
membership In the other secret societies and
churches in which nd hctlon had bjun taken
to deprive them of miunbership in such so-
eiotloa or churches because they ha.d joined
the Scoltish right bodies , hence they asked
why they should -suspended or expelled
for conduct not antagonistic to Masonry.gocd
morals or Christianity.
The circular further declares that the
signers had not been guilty of any un-Mn-
sotiio conduct nnd had not been legally
suspended as had been alleged.
The signers expressed themselves ns at all
times willing "to strictly conform to everv
edict of the grand lodge or general assembly
of Masons that is not subversive of the pnn-
ciples and ground work of Masonry , and to
submit to the awards and resolutions of our
brethren when convened , in every case con
sistent with the constitution of the order. "
After maintaining that It was not in the
power of any man or body of men to make in
novations in the body of Masonry the circular
closed with this sentence : "Carefully consid
ering all of those facts and the objects and
fundamental principles of Masonrv ' , nro you
satisfied that wo shall remain Isoln'tod ! "
His said that the grand secretary and
grauii master have sent uotico to all Blue
lodces that no delegate to the grand ledge
holding membership In the grand consistory
u 111 bo admitted.

At the annual session of the grand ledge of
Indiana , hold in Indianapolis last week , a
resolution was adopted Instructing the renrc-
sentatives to the next meeting of the sovereign
eign erantl ledge to introduce n law to forever
exclude from thojordor any.'ono engaged in the
manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquor ,
nnd providing that members of the ordorwho
are encaged in that business must either give
It up or leave the order. This would indeed
bo a radical enactment. But it is not likely
that the sovereign grand lodge will over makb
such a rule , or resort to such fanatical meas
ures to exclude from the order n class of citi
zens solely on account of their business If
the order Is to bo reformed and cut loose from
all its traditions theio is ample opportunity
for the exorcise of the pui gin ir process \ , itli-
out touching the saloon problem.
The grand led o of Missouri , which con
vened in annual session at St. Joseph lust
Tuesday , had another wrangle over the quo--
tion of excluding saloonkeepers from the
order in that Jurisdiction. A resolution to
that effect was adopted at the last annual ses
sion of the grand lodge , but It never was en
forced. as it was found to bo contrary to the
laws of the sovereign grand lodge. This year
the K'SR-J ledge decided to recommend the
adoption of sue ! ' n measure by the sovereign
grand body at its next meeting.
Tbo Oddfellows of Chicago will hold mo-
morfiil services In Central Musio hall , Sun
day , Juno 1 1 , in accordance with the procla
mation of the grand sire.
The Oddfellows of Missouri have benun ar
rangements for a stutb'aunual eelooration , to

Now York ledge \fft. 1 , which was sus
pended from the orttpr some ttmo ago , has
begun an action against Brooklyn ledge to
restrain it from using the words "Elk" or
"Elks , " or the tttlo "Protective Older of
Elks , " In any way. The complaint alleges
that the regular grand ledge Is a corporation
organ tzcHl uuder the laws of that state , and
expressly entitled by Its charter to tuo the
title "Protective Order of Elks ; " that the
Brooklyr. ledge has claimed allowance to n
spurious grand ledge organized In Cleveland
by persons who seceded from the original
grand ledge and attempted to take the title of
the "Order of Elks of the United States of
America , " and that the Brooklyn ledge has
