Increasing Power of the Church Discussed by Ministers at Church of Good Shepherd Affair. Characterized by the largest attendance since it has become an annual affair in the church's hlBtory, the ninth dinner of the Men's Union of the Church of the Good Shepherd, was held last night In tlie parish house on McDonough street.

Over eighty of the members of the union, with a few guestfl, were present. Henry P. Molloy. the president, acted as toast-master. While a number of those Invited to make addresses were obliged to cancel their appearance at almost the last i- etinH hv nrnmlnent uie, luoii yinw a speakers.

In making his address of welcome tho Rev. Robert Rogers, pastor of the church, put the guests in good humor by a number of jocular references to his reputation for extended talks, and promised that he would be brief on this occasion at least. He declared that tha power of the church was increasing far faster than was generally supposed, and that never had there been an age In which the church was doing greater work than to-day. In support of this the Rev. C.

F. Wrigley, rector of Grace Church, talked on "The Church and the Social Outlook," tu which he declared that the church was tho hope of the future. He then went on to speak of the "epoch making speech of President-elect Tall in tho South a few weeks ago, when ho made an address on the value of private property." "The Christian Church stands for brotherhood," declared Dr. Wrigley, "and this Is our only chance for the future. Legislation fails and labor unions fail, but the influence of the church is nevar lost." Other addresses were made by Gilbert Evans of the Brooklyn Eagle, who responded to a toast on "Newspaper Sidelights;" Gilbert Elliott of the Playground Association, and Don Seltz of the New York World.

Stone, who has a reputation for getting up thrillers, has been engaged to prepare a programme for the Queensboro Bridge celebration. Two days ago he had a a notice printed to the effect that he would like to hear from persons who were willing to do weird and fantastic acts on the day of the official opening of the bridge. He has, according to date, applications from 235 persons who want to jump from the bridge. Of this number thirty are women, whoso ages range from 13 to 32 years. Stone has classified the applications as follows; Professionals, 16S, freaks, 34; would-be suicides, jumps for Jobs, 24.

The freaks have sent along specifications of the apparatus which they desire to use to make their descent from tho bridge harmless to themselves. Among the devices proposed are parachutes, Inflate-) suits and pneumatic wings. One man has sent a diagram of an apparatus that looks like a hogshead. The wind passing through the device operates revolving fans, which the designer says will make his descent easy and graceful. The professionals are those who make their living by high diving.

Some of these have agreed to dive from the top ot the bridge towers. The would-be suicides are all young women, who say that they have found It too hard to make a living and are willing to take the chance of diving from the bridge. Twenty-four men. who say they are homeless and unable to get any other kind of work, are willing to jump from the bridge for a reasonable compensation. In several Instances where these men have made personal application, members ot the celebration committee have given tbem jobs.

Stone has been compelled to turn down all the applications, as the members of the committee announce that they will permit no jumping of any kind from the bridge. Special guards will be placed along the bridge to prevent anything of the kind. WEST END TRADE BOARD. New High Schools and Removal of Tracks From a Fart of Second Avenue Discussed.

The reception ommlttee and ushers, however, did ex excellent work In placing the crowd, and very possible amount of space was utilized.

Over 6,000 persons witnessed the jntertalnment and a large number of these remained for the danee which fol lowed.

Rath. i FILTRATION PLANT OPPOSED. Douglaston Civic Club Makes Formal Protest Against Its Location at Oakland Lake. The members of the Douglaston Civic Club have sent a petition to Mayor Mc- Clellan, Water Commissioner O'Brien and Borough President Gresser of Queens pro testing against the erection of the proposed filtration plant at Oakland Lake, between Bay Side and Douglaston. The petition was signed by nearly all of the property owners in that vicinity.

William R. Griffiths, one of the most active members of the association speaking to an Eagle reporter about the plant said: "The experience of the past other large cities, such as Trenton and Philadelphia, if enough. These filtration plants have not been successful there, and we do not want them established near our village. The principal objection these plants is' the fact that they do not remove typhoid germs from the water, no matter how elaborate the apparatus. "Another reason why a filtration plant is not wanted at Oakland Is.

because there are plenty of places in the Immediate neighborhood where, by driving deep wells, an abundant- supply of the purest and softest water along the North Shore can be obtained. This water, which is taken from underneath deep beds of clay is absolutely free from and has the added advantage of being much oooler In summer than any surface water can possibly be. Indeed, some engineers declare water from these driven wells can be delivered in a temperature of not more than 15 degrees, summer pr winter." OFP TO NORTHFIELD.

EHLERS DISAPPROVES. Says City Automobiles Bought by Taxpayers' Money Are Used for Joy Hides. The regular meeting of the Highland Protective Association was held last evening at the headqurters of the or ganization, 319 Highland boulevard. In response to an invitation tendered him by the officers of the organization County Clerk Frank Ehlers, was present and addressed the members. He livensd matters up In general by rapping some parts of the municipal administration.

Mr. Ehlers expressed his disapproval cf publio officials riding round in their of ficial capacity In automobiles, which are bought by the taxpayers. This, he said was one of the rankest things he knew of. Time after time, he said, the machines had been found at points outside of their domains at early hours of the morning, and when there could be no olausible excuse for spending the city's money by keeping the machines out on nights of revelry and skylarking. "One instance in particular, I wish to make known to you is that of a former gin mill keeper who is now drawing $5,000 a year in one of the public departments, has his chauffeur call at the house for him in the morning to take him to his office, where he does nothing but look wise." Reports of the various committees were heard at the conclusion of Mr.

Ehlers talk. Among these were the transit, sewers and others. The Question of the opening of the ferries was taken up, and at tne close of the discussion the secre tary instructed to communicate with ths local board of trade and co-operate in whatever stand they took in the matter. SAYS HE HAS MADE GOOD. B.

Has a Kind Word for the Rev. Dr. S. E. Young.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle When the Rev. Dr. S. Edward Young came to Brooklyn from Pittsburg last October, the Eagle, in a brief editorial somewhat cynically said, in substance that the young preacher from Pittsburg was welcomed, but that he would be judged by the work he did here as to whether he was worthy to rank with the great pulpit lights of our borough Dr. Young had been much In the public eye, owing to the strenuous efforts made by his church and city to keep him in Pittsburg.

More than double his salary here was offered as an inducement to stay, but he cast it aside and obeyed what he considered to be the call of God to come to Brooklyn. Now, he has been here long enough to demonstrate his worthiness to stand among our pulpit kings. In no Brooklyn pulpit to-day are there being delivered stronger, more eloquent, or more deeplj spiritual sermons than those to be heard in the Bedford Presbyterian Church. With no encumbering notes, the pastoi of this church pours forth at times in flights of true oratory the message Id tones that ring with, deep feeling and evident sincerity. Dr.

Young makes many gestures, but never is a gesture out of harmony with the tnougnt expressed, indeed, his gestures serve to drive home the truth he speaks. Those who go to hear Dr. Young ex-nnctinz something sensational will be disappointed. He preaches the gospel pure and Blmple, and has an original way of preeantlng che truth tnat goes straignt to the mark. There is no compromising.

To him sin 1b sin, and he does not attempt to palliate or excuse. Out with it, root and branch, is the only remedy ne Knows oi. Mn wonder the church is filled twice on Sunday. No wonder it has been found necessary to build a larger edifice. For the people like his preaching and they love the man.

Has he made good? Yea, verily. E. B. H. Brooklyn, February 3.
