EASTBOURNE “ NAVALS” HEARTY SEND-OFF.

A seoond aud larger section of the Boyal Naval Volunteer Beserve left Eastbourne on Wednesday. The muster numbered between forty and fifty, and ,the men, who had been located for about ten days at the Battery near the Bedoubt, marched briskly to the Station. They were in fine trim and looked happy and aleo eager “ to get to business.” A considerable crowd assembled at the Station and gave the “ Navals” an enthusiastic

| send-off.All the men of the first contingent, who left Eastbourne

I on Wednesday in last week, have been drafted to Bhips for special service.

I LOCAL FREE CHURCHES AND THE WAR.

Following the large united prayer meeting on Tuesday last at the Pevensey-road Congregational Church a special meeting of the Nuree Committee decided, on the motion of the Bev J. Weetbury Jones, seconded by the Bev. David B&rron, that at leaet 50 bedB be promised in case of need for use of wounded soldiers in any building or buildings seleoted for hospital work in Eastbourne by the ). -d Cross Society.

The Free Churches, of course, are willing that school rooms be used by the Bed Cross Sooiety should they be deemed suitable. An emergency committee of ladies— twq from each ohuroh—was appointed for whatever work may be necessary in connection with this proposal.

Already working parties have been organised to make garments, &c., for our gallant defenders.

The Guild of Friendship, in connection with Ceylon plaoe Church, was last Monday formed into a sewing circle to aid the Bed CroBS Society.

To thh Editob.Sir : Would yon kindly alldw me to state that at a

meeting of representatives of the Free ChnrcheB held on Tuesday evening last it was decided to make the following offers to the Bed Cross Society

(1) The use of our school premises as far as practicable.(2) To provide 50 beds with the necessary equipment

lor same.(3) To provide a sufficient number of ladies willing to

assist in cleaning and cooking as required for the above number of beds.

Id view of this decision I therefore appeal to the members of the congregations of all the Free Churches to render all the help possible and to send the promise of same to the ministers of their different churches or to the hon. secretary ol the oommittee, Mrs. Stanley Simmons, 22, Elms-avenue, who will be pleased to supply printed lists ol the requirements.

WOMEN'S OFFER OF SERVICE.

GOOD-WILL A POOR QUALIFICATION.We hear of a number of ladies who have offered their

eervioes to the Red Cross Sooiety, but whoBB qualifications for praotical service are of the smallest Patriotism with many people is, as a London j mrnal points out, a gusty emotion. It comeB in waves. It means a great desire to help at times of crisis, but not necessarily a persistent desire to be efficient in times of calm. Only at a time of crisis are the immense slackness aud inefficiency revealed. It is then that you hear women, whose sole qualification is good-will, asking to be {‘‘sent to the tront ” when they Cannot eew on a button.

“ Yesterday,” observes the writer, 11 we happened to. hear several dialogues of tlus type.”

“ You want to help?” “ Yes.” “ What can you do?” “ I’ll do auy thing ? ” “ Can you sew?” “ Not very well.” “ Can you cook ? ” “ No, I ’m afraid not ” “ Do you know ambulance work ; siok nursing ? ” “ No.” “ Typing?” “ No.” “ Shorthand?" “ No.” “ Speak Frenoh or German ? ” “ No.” “ Then you’d better help stick on stamps.”

THE KAISER DISPOSES.

No one who has not lived in Germany can poseibly comprehend the over-allueee of the Kaiser ̂ Hie official title is not the AU-Highest Person without a reason. He is it. Berlin cannot erect a public fountain, an opera house, an elevated railway station, or a statue without his all-highest approval. If his omnipotence extends to the uuconsidered trifles of national life, visualise his almightiuess in connection with the affairs which oount. A great career is impossible without hie favouring smile; a frown from Jove wrecks it irreparably. Chancellors, Ministers, generals, admirals and burgomasters propose. The KaiBer disposes.—Berlin correspondent of Daily Mail.

The Rerv. J. G. Henderson, minister of the Pevensey-road Congregational Church, delivered a special discourse on the subjeot of the war at the ohureh named on Sunday morning. The rev. gentleman founded his sermon on the following words :—

“ As Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle agalnsl Israel: but the Lord thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and dlseomllted them ; aud they were smitten before Israel.”—1 Samuel vli. 10.

The preaohar said : It Is very difficult, even In meeting for worship to-day, to give ourselves to the contemplation of those things whioh would ordinarily oocupy us. Our personal interests and oares, our personal hopes and sorrows, Beem dwarfed and lnslgntfloant, as we stand spectators and participators in a war whioh threatens to be the most horrible In history, the most widespread In its range, the most terrible in Its results.

To some degree our senses are numbed and Imagination reels In the effort to estimate all that It will Involve of suffering and of ohange for the peoples of Europe. There have been many great events, many fateful years In our story as a nation, but none greater, none more fateful, them those whioh hang upon the Issue of the present oonfllot.

R e s p o n s i b i l i t y f o b - t h e W a s .

I t would 111 beoome any one of us, at suob a time as this, to indulge In the language of vanity and boasting, or to speak a single syllable to inflame publto feeling, but we may in all slnoerlty and simplicity claim that all tne strength of British statesmanship, and all the resources of British diplomacy, have been for a generation steadily dlreoted to the maintenance of peace, and that these efforts have never been more strenuous, or more unselfish, than duiiag recent years. And It is surely no harsh judgment whioh casts the responsibility for this war, this assault u; os civill- nation, this crime against humanity, upon the German falser.

The same Kaiser who thirteen years ago reoelved the last sigh of Queen Victoria, who expired In his arms. The same Kaiser who only four short years ago embraced King George, his own cousin, beside the coffin of King Edward. The same Kaiser who

WHAT 18 EASTBOURNE DOING?

i To thb Editob.S ir : W hat Is Eastbourne doing In Jibe way o:

helping her country a t this Important time? Whi . | will take the lead to organising a fores aneb as Sir A. Conan Doyle reoommends ? The Ulster Volunteer Force has shown what oan be done by people who are in earnest; they have given np their time and energies to get a disciplined body of men together, in whioh all work with one will, solicitors, bankers, &c.t taking their share when required, even in the most mental and uninviting work. This has been dene by the volunteers themselves, without any help from the " authorities.” They, naturally, a t the present moment are mnoh too busy to help. ( f

I am thinking now specially of those who have spare time, either from being unemployed or being “ half-timers” (so to epeak), or being at present on their holiday,. We don't want to orltlolse what la being done, thongh I mast say the slowness of norultlng and the haphazard methods of taking

When one remembers that every able bodied man in German^ Franoe, & o, is working for his oountry, are ws to Bit still and say “ I t will be all right if yon keep on in your ordinary way ?"

Of course. We know the boy eoouts ere being

The Religions Society of Friends has issued a meisage To Men and Women of Goodwill in the British

Empire.” This observes generally:“ We recognise that our Government has made most

strenuous efforts to preserve peace, and has entered into the war under a grave sense of duty to a smaller State towards whioh we had moral and treaty obligations. While, as a society, we stand firmly to the belief that Hie method of foroe is no solution of any question, we hold that the present moment is not one lor criticism, but for devoted service to eur nation.

What is to be the attitude of Christian’men and women and of all who believe in the brotherhood of humanity ? In the distrem and perplexity of this new situation, many are eo stunned as scarcely to be able to disoern the path of duty. In the sight of Godj we should seek to get back to first principles, and to determine qn a ooorse of aotion whioh shall prove ns to be worthy citizens of His Kingdom. In making this effort let ns remember those groups of men ana women, in all the other nations oonoerned, who will he animated by a similar spirit, and who believe with ns that the fundamental unity of men in the family of God is the one enduring reality, even when we are forced into an apparent denial of it.”

In some detailed considerations of the situation and outlook the message says

“ There will still be multitudes who can see no good in the culture ol other nations, and who are unable to believe in any genuine brotherhood among those of different races. Already those who think otherwise must begin to think and plan for such a future if the supreme opportunity of the final peaoe is not to be lost, and if we are to be saved from being again sacked doWn into, the whirlpool of military aggrandisement and rivalry. In time of peaoe all the nations have been preparing for war. In the time of war let all men of goodwill prepare for peaoe. The Christian oonsdenoe must be awakened to trie magnitude of the issnes. The great friendly democracies in each country must be

INOPPORTUNE PSALMS.

A correspondent writes :—I venture to think that most of those persons who

attended an English Episcopal Church yesterday morning (the first Snnday affer the declaration of war) felt, like myself, humUiated and grieved at the sentiments which the first of the Psalms for the day (the 44th) called upon the cbngregation to express.

In it they were made to lay to the Almighty “ Bntnow Thou art far off, and pntteit us to confusion, and goest not forth with onr armies. Thou makest ns to turn onr baoks upon our enemies, so that they whioh hate ns spoil our goods. Thou letteat ui be eaten np like sheep,” &o,, &o.

With the view of preventing the unfortunate recur- in public worshi

over and over again declare! his devotion to the Interests of peaoe. This professedly peaoeful monaroh, It Is now seen, sleoplessly and as seoretly as possible, has been all along getting ready for war. Without hesitation, and without oompuno- tlon, he has broken the most binding obligations, repudiated his own most solemn undertakings, disregarded his most definite assarancas, and In this remorseless haste, and with this alarming violence, determined to send his enormous army like a tornado, tiarlDg Its way through peaoeful lands, massacring men by thousands.

If war oan ever be justified, our aotlon on this oocaslon can be justified. So at least It seems to me.

For many years now all Europe has been haunted as by a nlghtmai e. For many years this menaclug German despotism has been proclaiming Its passion for peaoe, and yet has remained the one power in the world to resist proposals for the rednotlon of armaments. And now the Kaiser suddenly shoots throughout Europe, “ So the sword must deolde.”«I am not so sura that these great world-issues

are deolded by the sword. There Is a good deal In the history of the world to justify another and very different dootrlne. Napoleon, and many another soldier, has talked about the sword deolding, only to find strange confutations of expectation.

A S i g n i f i c a n t I n c i d b n t . i The tekt whioh 1 have taken this morning

plotures a very primitive ita te of sooiety, and a very primitive stage of religious belief. But it records a very significant Incident, the sort o f ln'oldeat ivhloh has many times been repeated in orlses of human history. The Israelites were under the heel of the Philistines. Then there was a revival of national piety and an outburst of national patriotism whioh! the Philistines deolded to repress and punish. But they felled, they were oovered with a humiliating disaster. “ As Samuel was offering op the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel, bnt the Lord thundered with a great tbnrider on that day upon the Philistines, and dlsoomflted them, and they were smitten before Israel.” The unseen Load brought powers Into play that upset the plans of the Philistines, and brought defeat where defeat seemed impossible.

That Is a fact whioh ambitions rulers and sahomlng statesmen and eager soldiers too frequently forget. In words they may acknowledge the Divine existence, the possible intervention of God In human affairs, but usually they plan

vie

vlotory overlooked in Russia or In Europe. Alexander, the Czar of Russia, ordered a medal to be struok to commemorate tha t event, and upon it are the word, “ Not to me, not to us, but unto Thy name.” They saw that the sword did not decide.

Then there was the final defeat upon the plains of Waterloo. “ A few drops of water, more or lees,” said Ylotor Hugo, “ prostrated Napoleon.” W hat did he mean ? Why we know that that deolslve battle was delayed for five hours beoause there was rain on the previous night, and Napoleon oould not move his artillery over the heavy ground until eleven o'clock In the morning. “ 1 both propose and dispose.” In this oase Napoleon proposed to begin the battle at six o'olook, but God so disposed events that It began at eleven o'clock. Those five honrs ohanged the* future of Europe. Wellington was almost beaten when Blucher came up. If that battle had begun five hours earlier, it would, according to all human calculation, have ended not in onr vlotory, but In our defeat, and the whole oontlnent would have been beneath tho yoke t f that tyrant. “ A few drops of water, more or less.”

Possible Prelude to Permanent Peace.As I think upon suoh things, such confusion and

defeat of all human calculation, I think of the words of the Psalmist, “ Ho that sltteth in the heavens shall laugh, the Lord shall have them in derision.” And I entertain the oonvlotlon that the swaggering war lord of Germany, who has oaused all this carnage, all this distress and intolerable agony, to which the whole of Europe Is now committed ; who has compelled this suspense of oivlllsation, this emergence of barbarism, oan only lssne from this ornel conflict a broken man, on a damaged throne, and with a shattered empire whioh may posslblv determine to dispense with his presenoe In the land he has reduced to rulnp.

This war may under the Provldenoe of God be the way to that permanent peace for which we have been praying.

War, for the end of war;Fighting, that fighting may cease ;

Why do our cannon roar! •For a thousand years of heace.

This may be the stormy preliminary to an era of order and quiet In Europe, to a destruction of the desire and preparation for war, whioh w ill release the nations from the costly and savage competition In armaments, and liberate them for that social development upon whioh their welfare and happiness so largely depend.

“ Alleluia, for the Lord God omnipotent relgneth.” Repeat again and again that great faot. We need to kneel before God, to speak to Him, to make confession of our sins, to make appeal for His help. Let us do this together; let us do this apart. My friends, all the Issues of this ooufilot Ue not lu the handB of the Kaiser and his allies, nor In the hands of Britain and her allies; all the Issues lie In the hands of God. “ Alleluia, ior the Lord God omnipotent relgnoth.” So that our duty Is clear as daylight. We can, and we will, In quietness and confidence, go forward undismayed and confident, head ereot, heart high, doing our duty In home and office and shop and field ; doing simply and faithfully the task whioh oomes each day to be discharged. We are not ashamed of what our statesmen have done, we are not afraid of what may come. But we must dlsolpline ourselves, we must show steadiness and self-control. We shall not be served by the brain

Hloks and oompany were nnable to fulfil their engagement during the first part of the week, bat although the breaoh could not be entirely filled Messrs. Murray King and Clark were able to find an aooeptable substitute. One of the first of the mnsloal comedies, The Belle o f New York still maintains Its popularity, and local playgoers weloomed the opportunity of renewing an old acquaintance. The well-known melodies were reoeived with evident relish, more than one favourite Item being enthusiastically enoored/ The prlnotpal parts were all ably undertaken, and Mies Luoy Caine, In the title rdle. acted ' and sang with a charm that greatly delighted the assembly. Miss Maudle Ray, aa “ Fifl,” aohleved a noteworthy snooess as the ohlo little Parlalenne, while Mr. Montague Golding was Irreproachable as “ Harry Bronson.” The other principals were all experienced in mnsloal oomedy, and as tbe.chorus, too, Was strong and well-balanoed, a distinctly pleasurable presentment was obtained,

a singularly fresh, vivaolons add winsome perform' anoe evldenoes beyond question, Aoting (with spirit and abandon, Miss Jovoe also siDgs and danoes In admirable style. Mr. Raymond Gas- ooyne has a great deal to do as the manager, bat he works with tireless vigour and contributes largely to the humorous Bide of the entertainment. Other particularly well-sustained comedy parts are “ Bylea ” (messenger and odd man) by Mr. EUls Carlyle; and “ Lord George Matlook” by Mr, Sinolalr Rodger “ The Duke of Brent" ls smoothly aoted bv Mr. Kenneth Ware, and the “ Robert Jaftray, ’ the land agent, Is made the moat of by Mr. Lamont Dickson.

"OH, OH, DELPHINE1 ”RETURN VISIT.

Oh, Oh, Delphine! Is a fit successor to the popular Arcadians aud ihe Pearl Girl This muslaal comedy, whioh Is oomtng to the Pier Theatre next week, from its first appearance has played to orowded houses, attracted by the brllllanoy of the scenery and dresses and the beauty of the mnelo. The following extraot gives an Idea of the plot In so far as plot plays any nart In the real business of a musioal oomedy: “ Viotor was an artist, and allowed himself more spaoe wherein to exerolse his temperament than Delphtne, his wife, was disposed to sanotlon, so they parted, and qulokly regretted their Impetuous notion, for Delphine got a fool for her seoond husband and Viotor got a sedate woman for his seoond wife, to whom his disposition to paint Ven uses rlBlng from the s< even less agreeable than It had been to Del]The exigencies of military training brougl parties together again under the domlnatlo; colonel who presented the part of a martinet men, but melted like snow before the pretty of the women. After many amusing ■complications they agree that their misunderstanding has been a madness."

Tne oompany coming to the Pier Is an exceptionally strong one, numbering all told 60 artists, and the oast or principals Is a brilliant one, lnolod- lng Miss Ruby Vyvyan, MUs Hilda Gulver, Miss Dorothy Vinson, Mr. Walter Thomas, Mr. Edwin Dodds and Mr. Stafford Moss. There Is also a strong and pretty ohorus, gorgeously gowned In the latest Parisian fashions, and the orohestra ls under the dtreetlon of Mr. Tom Lewis.

There will be matinees on Wednesday Saturday at 3 p.m. Seats oan now be booked.

ROYAL HIPPODROME.At a time like the present a military drama,

however loosely strung together, would be almost oertaln to achieve success, but there ls nothing that can bn described as being unworthv of the best traditions of the Hippodrome In “ Before DawD,” whloh ls an Intensely dramatlo little story, and would meet with success even In the most peaceful times. It deplots the sterling qualities of the British soldier In moments of danger and Is of suoh a stirring nature that the audlenoe Is held from start to finish. The eoene ls laid in the oamp at Malta, and the action is supposed to take plaoe during the Indian Mutiny. Major Stetson Is in a tight corner, following a successful revolt ou the part of the natives. He has oharge of the colonel’s son, Dlok, bnt as the result of a communication intimating that one of the two mast be shot the Major apparently adopts the cowardly alternative In saorlflolng the boy, who is led out to his doom at dawn. Fortunately, the oolonel arrives in time to save the lad and in the explanations wbloh follow it seems that one was to have been shot and the other tortured, and the major, thus oomes oat of the ordeal with Infinite oredlt. The pieoe la excellently presented; the acting is good and the soenio effects pretty. The Cole and Rags Trio appear In a mirthful mixture of song, dance and oomei' joggling. The audience ls greatly amused by the grotesque and soreamlngly funny antlos of “ the tram p/’ whose droll actions and ludicrous mannerisms are the work of a clever comedian. The juggling with plates, balls, &o., ls extremely skilful, the whole turn being of a lively, entertaining character. Fi z AUen Is a comedian whose burlesque character songs are given in a breezy style; while Vera and Welldon appear In a novel burlesque, which luoludes much to laugh at. Alma Prentice Is a charming comedienne whosb songs are rendered In a pleasing styK and other aooeptable Items are contributed by Edna Clyde, oomedi- enne, and Jaok War man, comedian.

The one bright spot In a sordid and intensely anffnatlo tale la the self-saorlfloe of Oarton, who gives his life for the happiness of the girl of his affection^ and nothing could have been more hlstrlonloally perfeot than Mr. Martin Harvey’s olever Impersonation of the ecoentrlo but true-

ilrlted Englishman. Hts splendid noting held e olose attention of the audience, and at the

oloee of eaoh aot the eurtalh had to be raised several times In response to the tumultuous applause whioh greeted] the talented artist. The other members of the oompany rendered excellent servloe, Miss N. de Silva appearing with oharmlni effect In her original part as “ Miml,” .the devote protege of “ Oarton.” Special mention must also be made of the praiseworthy efforts of Mr. Eugene Wellesley as “ Charles Darnay,” Mr. Walter Howe “ Dr. Musette,” Mr. Charles Gienny as “ Ernest

s,” Miss Maud Blvers aa “ Luoy Manette,” and Mir. Peroy Foster as “ Mr. Lorry.”

A t the conclusion of the play there was an enthusiastic demonstration of appreciation, and In response to persistent calls Mr. Martin Harvey expressed his thanks for the spontaneous and hearty welcome aocorded him on his return to Eagland. He paid a warm tribute to the loyalty of his company, who, he] said, would be greatly enoouraged by the cordial reoeptlon they had received. He had questioned the advisability of proceeding on tour a t the present juncture, but the large audlenoe showed that the publto still desired to have recreation and relaxation. Inol- dently Mr. Harvey congratulated Measrs. Murray King & d a rk upon the re-deoorattOn and Improve menta In the theatre Btnce he last had the privilege of playing there.

Last night The Breed o f the Treshams was played before an excellent and highly appreciative assembly. I

The body of one of the two lads belonging to the 1st Cadet Battalion Royal Fusiliers, who were drowned while bathing near Beacby Head on August 4th, was recovered on Sunday and oon- veyed to the mortuary. Subsequently i t wsb Identified as that of Frederlok Stanley Bennett, aged 17, of 32, Pine-road, Crleklewood, N.W.

The Inquest was held at the Town Hall on Tuesday, the inquiry being conducted hy the Coroner (Mr. G. Vere Benson).

Frederick Richard Bennett, father of the deceased, said he was a oablnet maker. His son was a shop assistant, and he last saw him on Sunday, August 2nd, when be left to come to Eastbourne with the 1st Cadet Battalion Royal Fusiliers. Tae deoeased could swim. Another oadet, named Harris, told witness that he was bathing with the deoeased. who undressed first and went down to the water. Harris followed abont two minutes later, but when he got to the water he could see no sign of Bennett. He went to see If the deoeased had joined some other lads not far off, but not finding him he went back to the original plaoe, butstlll saw nothing of the deceased. Just at that time there was trouble with Foster, and he heard some of the other lads ory out, “ Foster ht£ gone.” There were seven or eight boys bathlog, and they left the water and 00m- menoed to dress, but Bennett’s clothes were nnolalmed. Witness expressed the opinion that the deceased must have fallen and strnck h|s head on a rook, as he was not a lad who would be drowned wlthont a struggle.

William Timms, of 107, Hanley-road, Stroud Green, London, N , a sergeant In the 1st Cadet Battalion Boyal Fusiliers, said he was with a party of eight to bathe at 3 30 In the afternoon on August 4th. Nothing was said about any spot being dangerous. The battalion bad been for a route march in the morning, but witness did not think the lads were very muob fatigued by the walk. Witiness did not know the deoeased, bat he rooognised a photograph of him. When they first went in the water was very shallow, but he did not remember seeing Bennett In the water a t all. HU attention was oalled to Foster, bnt he did not know Bennett was missing until he lost Foster. Witness and the others made a search along the beach, bat they failed to find any trace of the deceased. 1_

In reply to the Coroner, the witness said the spot appeared to be an ideal plaoe to bathe, there being a nice stretch of sand. There were no notices put up In the oamp to Indicate whloh places were safe.

The Foreman (Mr. Snatt) remarked that the ourrenta over the rooks were so strong that It was Impossible tor a lad to hold asalnst them.

P.O. Simmons said he and P.O. Champion rowed round Beaolhy Head In an endeavour to find the bodies. Subsequently Parade Inspector Dann arrived In a motor boat, having heard they were In difficulties in the boat. They were all right, however, and the party went ashore, where a searoh was made. They searched the spot, where there were what were known as shifting sands, but they failed to find the body. Oo August 9ih, as the result of a( communication, witness aud two or three other constables went and found the body on the shifting sands, jn st clear of high water mark, about fifty >ards from the faoe of the oliff. The body was pertly embedded In the sands.

The Coroner thought there was a lamentable oversight on the .part of somebody In not ascertaining whether the place was safe for bathing. People ought not to go and bathe at plaoes which they knew nothtng at all abont.

The jury returned a verdict to the effeot that the deceased was drowned while bathing, and expressed the opinion that theTownCounollor the responsible authority should ereot oautlon boards.
