NEW YORK. March 15.-Hilary A. Herbert

first official visit to the Brooklyn navy

on q tour of inspection through the yards
and introduced him to the principal officers
of the station.
Speaking of the changes that would be
made in the Brooklyn navy yard. Secretary
Herbert said that none would be made for
the sake of change. He would carry out
the plan inaugurated by his predecessor of
selecting men according to their ability
and experience. rather than because of any
political influence He hoped to see the
navy of the United States equal to that OF
any other nation. but fOvored building
slowly. By adding q few good ships eac ID
year It would not be long before the United
States would regain the equality she had
with other powers in $780, He could not
speak specifically yet as to the number of
new cruisers to be constructed ss he was
just entering upon the work of the depart
ment. but he would adopt q conserv atively
progressive policy.
In regard to the naval parade on April
27, the Secretary expressed himself as
pleased with the outlook for q successful
and impressive demonstration. He has
ordered all the American ships that were
to take part to bo at the rendezvous at
Hampton roads on April IL IN readiness
for SAILING for New York on the oath. He
was making every preparation ~ avoid
delay so as to have the naval pageant over
in time for the spectators to get OFF to
Chicago to witness the opening of the
worlds fair on May /. He thought there
would be no conflict of authority between
Rear Admiral Gherardi and foreign officers
of higher rank. as has been feared in some
quarters.

part whatever in the discussion of an

Judged by Its Results.

EDITOR: A good neighbor says, religion
does no harm. Deluded man, religion has
filled the world with blood. All history
prociaims it. The Jewish wars, the Mo-
homedon wars, the Crussdes, Christian
wars, burnings, t%ortures and massacres all
proclaim it's Internal diabolism. The de-
struction of the ancient peoples and civil
ization of Spanish America by Spanish
Catholics alone condemn it as the scourge
of the ages. Where has it laid it's hand on
man but to his injury? 1t has taken his
purse, his children, the wife of his bosom,
and then like II cowardly cur he has licked
the hand that scourged him. R~eligion-it
has robbed the writer OF the love and
friendship of those born OF the same
mother and nourished at the same breast
what can he do but despise it? The poet
calls it "a curse, a disease, a lie Puny
man, you make a god, call him good, set
him up as your idol-the world is filed
with the same misery, the same wickedness.
You supplicate him to make you good, you
increase in ~wickedness; your idol don't
help, can't help you; you and you preach
ers plead and preach in vain. We judge
your religion by it's results. Depend on
yourselves. practice virtue and morality
and be men. A VIcrIM.
