THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, MONDAY, APRIL 12, 1915. GOOD ARMY AND NAVY NEEDED--DR. CADMAN Tells Y. M.

C. A. Audience Country Should Be Always Prepared. HIS THEME. Believes Such a Condition Could Obtain If Nations Would Respect Each Other.

The largest audience of the season was present at the Men's Conference, at the Bedford Branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, yesterday afternoon, to hear the Rev. Dr. S. Parkes Cadman talk on ment." He had been absent for a day and was received with a great volume of applause. He announced that next Sunday, when the last meeting of the season would be held, he would have as his subject, "World Peace-How It Can Be Secured." Secretary Hammond said that by actual computation 15,000 men have attended the conferences in the branch, aside from the other speakers.

Dr. Cadman said he wanted to thank the men for the courtesy they had shown and the and attention given to his dear friend, Dr. Carson, and the other speakers when he was necessarily absent. He also extended an earnest invitation to the men to attend the annual service of the Twenty-third Regiment, of which he was the chaplain, in the Central Congregational Church next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock. After a number beautifully played by the Hearons Sisters Quartet, Dr.

Cadman said that the Twenty-third Regiment and the National Guard in general were looked upon by some people with contempt, but the Guard stood for the defense of the State and the nation when called upon, and if the Twenty-third Regiment was called out he would go with it from. a sense of duty and not inquire too closely as to why he was called. Without disparagement to regiment, he in the State and good as there was considered the Twenty the best in the nation. He said the meetings held, had been so successful and maintained their interest because of the support from the floor, without which they could not have been continued. Dr.

Cadman spoke of Napoleon and said he was the greatest general the world had ever produced, and had it not been for his- unholy ambitions he would have died as Emperor of the French instead of in exile upon a rock. Napoleon was responsible for the French Revolution, which revolution was the birthday of every liberty Europe knows, notwithstanding the utterances to the contrary in the mouthings of some speakers and preachers. Waterloo, said Dr. Cadman, riveted the chains and bonds on the people, and after Waterloo England threatened revolution until the people rose and said it must not be. The results of the war and broken promises on the part of the rulers who denied liberty to Prussia caused the noble emigration Carl Schurz and men like him.

Out of militarism, said Dr. Cadman, on one side or the other, has come despotism, and there is not a throne of autocratic authority but that depends upon the bayonet or it could not exist. He what is known as the Holy Alliance, formed to further monarchical government and to make slaves of the The members of the Holy Alliance claimed that monarchy was handed down from God, said Dr. Cadman; "Shades of Patrick Henry and George Washing- ton!" Warns Against Encouragement of Monarchial Institutions. Dr.

Cadman explained that the Monroe Doctrine, which still lied. was due to Canning and not to Monroe, as history showed, and this doctrine forbade the propagation of monarchical institutions in the New World, which a AMUSEMENTS-BROOKLYN. B. -F. ORPHEUM MATINEE KEITH'S DAILY.

Let somebody attempt to establish monarchical institutions in this country without the full consent of the people, said the speaker, and see what he will get for his pains. "Disarmament," said Dr. Cadman, "I believe to be more or less impossible, but it should be brought about only through mutual compact of the nations, with due respect to the rights of one another, but I do not believe the United States should place its grievances at the naked mercy of a court of the people, We should demand and maintain freedom before the law, cauality.

justice, social as well as political. We should not remain inert or helpless, and if trouble should come we should protect those things that more vital than life itself. are, also want to say here that I do not believe in the old theology that consigns men to hell, whether done by pastors or evangelists. No man has a right to damn another and speak of a damned soul. No man, priest or preacher, has any right to know the future history of any man.

God alone knows eternity, Eternity is part of the Everlasting, and no human being has divine attributes toward any theory of eternity. Any theory of eternity entertained by man is worthless. And I might also say that some editors and some preachers that excite people to war will get their reward of evil as they sow it. "I maintain that we cannot disarm so long as we have mercenary troops, and not until the word of one of the fathers, 'With malice toward prevails. I believe in the lines of defense, a well -equipped and efficient navy, a good, although small and incomplete army and the National Guard of 500,000 men, and although they are sometimes sneered at, if trouble came the sneerers would be the first to thank God for them." Dr.

Cadman said that it was declared in certain quarters that citizen soldiery were not good, that those who keep shops could not fight, but he wanted to say that many of them were a good deal better soldiers than those men in Europe who went around with tin scuttles on their heads. He spoke of Cromwell as being a shopkeeper, who was called the psalm singing general, and he named the greatest armies the world had known as Cromwell's Ironsides, who never lost a battle, a banner or a gun; the army of Stonewall Jackson in the Shenandoah and the of Lee and the Army the Potomac, largely composed of farmers and shopkeepers. There were men in the trenches now that left college and desk and were proving themselves great soldiers. Admirals and Generals Not Safe Rulers of Nations. Dr.

Cadman spoke in forcible terms against conscription and said he would favor disarmament when that was done away with as from the devil, and when the destinies of the countries were taken out of the hands of admirals and generals and given to laymen, where the power of determining their duties and disposal rest. "'We cannot trust constitutional government to admirals and generals, and when they can dictate to a nation, God help that nation. We cannot have boards of officers to dictate to men who come from the people. Josephus Daniels," said the speaker, "is the ruler of the American Navy, and he should be, and although commercialism has found fault with him it is done in the face of that he has saved money to the nation." A number of questions on disarmament were sent up and Dr. Cadman answered them along the lines of his address.

Among other questions and answers were the following: "What do you think of the 'American Legion' which hits all available military resources of the nation?" "I believe in leaving the of the nation to the Government. I do not believe even Bishop Greer should be given the full voice in such matters. I do not think it would be wise to trust our national honor to a selfelected body of citizens." "If the invention and manufacture of great guns or other implements of war is one of the phases of our socalled progress, then I would like to ask Dr. Cadman if the calamity wrought by these is also progress?" "No. I should not say it was progress.

No, that is one of the measures of war. It is wrong and rotten to make poison, too, but do not blame the men who make the guns; blame the conditions that make them necessary. Right-minded men don't want guns, but the men who are employed in their manufacture do their duty in obeying their employers and have no part in the creation of the necessity." "What is your opinion of the Methodist Conference indorsing woman suffrage?" "I know suffrage is coming and you had better get ready for it. I cannot fully pin my faith in the free distribution of the franchise. We gave it to the colored people with some bad results.

If the women are bound to get it, the intelligent ones among them will no doubt use it well wisely." "Did David write the Twenty Psalm?" "It is the popular opinion that David wrote the Psalm. But he not write the Psalms. It is not known who did. But what difference does it make? Take it in. If you had a nice mealy potato you would not ask who grew it or where." "Do you think we will have national prohibition by 1920 "I never prophesy.

We have a Republican Legislature, and you can never tell what a Legislature will do." "Have you heard Billy Sunday yet? What do you think of him?" "No, I have not, but I will go and hear him; because of things I have read lately I want to hear him?" "What appears to you to be Secretary Josephus Daniels' worst mistake as Secretary of the Navy?" "He made no mistake in abolishing rum in the Navy. We do not need rum. Men in charge of those giant fighting machines need to have clear heads. We can well afford to abolish drinking in the Army and Navy." Dr. Cadman answered a number more questions, approved an international a police force, said all men should be treated as brothers, no matter what race or color and declared that he knew some saloons were open at the moment he was talking, but it was because the saloon keepers, who claimed to be the most abused men in the world, would not obey the law, for if they did they would not be scorned and abused.

Frank Heartfield of Brewsters, N. reading the marriage service and the Rev. John Howard Melish assisting, Mrs. Bogart Greenwood Southack (the former Miss Josephine Allen Ward and daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Rodney A. Ward of 319 Garfield place- Mrs. Southack has been making her home at 594 Third street) became the bride of Perry D. Bogue. Mr.

Bogue is a son of Mrs. Morton D. Bogue of 836 Union street. The ceremony was a simple but an exceedingly attractive one, with between seventy-five and a hundred guests, and was followed by a fast--at which there were no additional guests at Mr. and Mrs.

Ward's home. Bride and bridegroom are to remain in Brooklyn until the summer, but will settle in Manhattan permanently. Mrs. Southack was a bride in pale blue. 'She had a wedding gown of pale-blue taffeta, with a hat of the same color, adorned with pink roses.

She had no attendants at all, coming down the aisle alone on her father's arm. There were seven ushers, but these did not precede her, going to seats of their own after showing other people to theirs. Thus the group at Holy Trinity's altar comprised only the bride and her father, Mr. Bogue and his best man, his brother, Morton Griswold Bogue, and the two clergymen. The ushers were R.

Stuyesant Pierrepont and Seth Low Pierrepont, both now of Manhattan; Rodney C. Ward, a brother of the bride; Arthur Willis of Flushing and John Egmont Schermerhorn, Charles Havemeyer Jackson and Pemberton Sturges of Manhattan. Holy Trinity's interior was diminished for this small wedding by a screen of palms extending across the church, half way down. Only the center aisle was used. Here the screen of palms was broken by an archway, through which the bride and her father passed.

The church decorations were the large Killarney Queen roses. At the Ward residence at the breakfast the same pink roses were used, decorating all the rooms. At the breakfast were, in addition to the wedding party and Mr. and Mrs. Ward: Mr.

and Mrs. Harold Stanley (the former Miss Edith Thurston), Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Goepel, Miss Florence Stuart of Plainfield, Mr. and Mrs.

Benson Wigton of Plainfield, Miss Gladys Bigelow, Miss Alma Bogue, Mrs. Charles Havemeyer Jackson, Mr. and Mrs. John Cornell. Mrs.

White tulips and sweet peas decorated the Hutchinson residence at 824 Ocean avenue. The luncheon was all in white. Miss Hutchinson wore a. gown of very pale pink, covered with rose net. Nine covers were laid, the company including the bride, Mrs.

TO MOVE ORPHANAGE. Lutherans Here to Raise Money New Buildings. Plans to move the Bethleham Orphan and Half Orphan Asylum from College Point, where it has been for many years, to Fort Wadsworth, S. have been completed by the managers of the Lutheran anarchies of Brooklyn. It was decided to open a campaign among Brooklyn Lutherans for funds to erect the building on the newly -acquired site.

In outlining the scheme for the campaign here, Charles H. Schmidling, announced that sub-committees will make personal appeals to the members of the various churches and will make monthly returns to finance committee, which has the matter in charge. Many Lutherans helped inaugurate the local campaign at St. Mark's Church, Bushwick avenue and Jefferson street, where a large meeting was held. WANTS POLES REMOVED.

John K. Neal Club Asks Alderman Pendry to Act. The John K.

Pendry, requesting that he take such steps to compel the replacing of all wires under ground.

Alderman Pendry has been exceptionally successful in having Bushwick avenue cleared of poles and the members are inclined to believe that the removal order should have the same effect in all the streets of the district. P. O. STATION TO MOVE. Will Be Located on Eighth Avenue Near Fifth Street.

William B. Menhinick, and her fiance, of, Lawrence Stanley Harrison, son of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Harrison, of 657 East Thirty street.

Miss Men- hinick this announcement at her home, 978 Sterling place. She is a Sigma Delta Phi girl. Her father. the late William B. Menhinick, will be widely recalled as prominent in Brooklyn Masonry, especially in connection with Acanthus Lodge.

Miss Menhinick wore a gown of blue brocade, with blue net, with a gold The girls she had at the card tables included: Miss Marjorie Wood, Miss Evelyn Kingsley, Miss Grace Bruning, Miss Helen Selover, Miss Jeanette Nesbit, Miss Hazel Healy, Miss Beulah Browning, Miss Lillian Firth, Miss Gladys Smith, Miss Grace Corey, Miss Marjorie Sullivan, Miss Marie Alsgood, Miss Alice Halin, Miss Ella Conklin, Miss Mildred Rottger, Miss Adelaide Brewster, Mrs. Edwin H.

Other guests were Mrs. William H. Harrison, mother of the bridegroomto-be, and Mrs.

John Wesley Hill, Mrs. A. Charles Bechtold and Mrs. George B. Nichols of Albany, Mr.

Harrison's sister. The actual announcement was made attractively. Just as the tea was over one of the caterer's men came over to Miss Menhinick with a large bouquet of pink sweet peas and lilies of the valley. This bore the card of Milton W. Harrison, a brother of the bridegroom-to-be.

A moment later another caterer's man came to Miss Menhinick with another bouquet, this of violets and lilies of the valley (from Mr. Harrison himself). The arrival of these bosuets occasioned, of course, some little stir among the girl guests. Immediately Mrs. Hill came forward and kissed Miss Menhinick, slipping a little box into her hand.

It contained the ring, and the bride-to-be quickly opened the box. Naturally those nearby saw, and the news spread without delay. A. few moments afterward a waiter passed around a rose ball, filled with rosebuds. A rosebud went to each guest, each rosebud had Mr.

Harrison's and Miss Menhinick's cards attached. Pink roses made up the decorations. In the center of the tea table was a large confectionery heart, half opened. It was surmounted with rosebuds. Some Subscribers Announced: Williamsburg Hospital Ball.
