Rev. j. 8. David.

Rev. j. S.. David, of the Church of
the New Jerusalem, treated the moral
movement as proposition for union
of effort between press and pulpit. He
sedulously avoided saying word about
cooperation among the churches them
selves, that is, between the orthodox
and the liberal denominations He IN
sisted that the church was made
for the world, and not the
world for the church. The
welfare of the race he put above the well
fare of single denomination. He
claimed that ritualism died with the
birth of Christ. 1t was the feature of
the ancient faith, but under the new dis
pensatiOn the final end was the cOnsid-
GRAFTON and not the form of observance.
Then he began to speak of the need be-
tween the church and the press. Nearly
all he had to say on that point was to
the effect that the newspapers need re-
forming. He did not hint that some of
the creedS might we'll be reformed
a little and made more human. He
thought that editors and reporters are
nearly all materialistic in their tenden-
cieS. The editors should be made to see
the error of their ways, and 10 join
hands with the ministers instead of
working against them, as is the most
common practice. The newspapers
should be improved until they shall
cease to publish reports of vicious sport
ing events, accounts of domestic infei-
lefty and narratives of crime.

of the congregation to step forward and
make themselves heard, or to ask any
question which they would like an
swered, stating that it was intended to
make the meetings unique, and extend
a free platform privilege to those at
tending.
Aid. Haynes then stated few facts
pertaining to the business matters of
the organization, and announced that
DR.. Sample had been engaged for an,
other year. Several members of the
congregation expressed their hearty APP

equal to that of any cotemporaneous
production. The performers are not
only good, but especially we'll selected
for their parts. John G. Rice is a come
dian with dialect and manneriSms pc
culiarly his own, and George w. Bar
mum is all artistic innovation. Both are
actors of genuine merit and originality,
and both provoked the audience to in
cessant laughter. Sally Cohen sang and
danced beautifully, and little Bessie
Clayton dances equal to the best.

FERRANT'S DIVORCE CASE.
1t Was Tried Saturday in the Up
town Branch Of the Court.

Another divorce case has been tried
without publicity-at least, that was
the intention. While the court house
is supposed 10 have been erected for the
uses of the district court, a portion of
the court was moved Saturday, and the
Office of Frank F. Davis became for the
time the temple of justice of Hennepin
county. Judge Hooker packed his jul
dicial ermine into little trunk and
hired man TO carry it up there. Then
he went to Davis Office and tried the di-
vorce case of Mrs. Emil Ferrant. There
was no one present besides the court,
Mrs. Ferrant, Mr.. Ferrant, Mr.. Davis,
Mrs. Ferrant's attorney, and few wit
nesses and friends of Mrs. Ferrant.
Emil sat in the rear of the room and
said nothing. He made no defense and
did not even testify. The basis of Mrs.
Ferrant's petition for a divorce was
made public last summer. 1t was the
old ground of unfaitnfulness. Con-
nected with the charge are some ro-
mantle circumstances that were Incl
dents in Mr.. FeTrant's student days in
the fatherland. All the testimony was
offered and the judge has taken the
case under adviSement. 1t is thought
that the divorce will be granted, mas
much as there was no defense.

OPEN FOR BUSINESS.
At Last the Press Club Is in Posi-
ton to Declare Itself n CIuh.


The Minneapolis Press club held It's
first meeting i'll the new club rooms
yesterday afternoon. The rooms of
this organization are all that club rooms
could be. They are roomy, convenient
and handsomely furnished. There is
nothing lacking to make of them all
ideal home for the club.
There was a good deal of business to
be considered yesterday. The charter
membership list will not be closed until
the first of December and all of those
entitled to be admitted as charter men,
berS have until that time to sign the
roofs and pay over to the treasurer the
necessary fees. The books are now
open for the admission of all persons
who are entitled to membership in the
club. either active or associate. Yester-
day the club voted to make the theat-
rical managers of the city, who were
such hearty cO-Operators with the
newspaper men in the work of
arranging for the entertainment in Sep
TENDER, MeSsrs. Charles A. Parker, Au-
gustin Thompson, Theodore l.. Hayes,
E. 2. Hilton and Fred Pride, honorary
members of the club. There are sew
eral other names under consideration
for admission as honorary members,
among them that of Col. John Ii. Ste
venS, the old settler and the editor of
the first newspaper published in Mime
apolis. The club has done the gallant
by the ladies who are engaged in Jour
nalistic work. They will become active
members of the club, but the dues will
be RENTED. The first entertainment
that was ever given in Minneapolis for
the benefit of a press club was fostered
and made success by the late William
difference, the actor. The club took
appropriate action on his death. A COM
mittee was appointed to arrange for a
reception, to occur some time within
two weeks. for the formal opening of the
club rooms. The reception will be for
the members of the club and their
friends, ladies especially. The thanks
of the club were extended to all those
business firms that have generously
contributed towards beautifying the
rooms. The secretary was instructed
to notify the Business Mems union, the
board of trade, the Jobbers' association
and the produce exchange that the club
is ready to cooperate with them at any
time in advancing the interests of the
city.

The Norwegian team is the only one
that has not lost. This record is the
more surprising since the Norwegian
team, as whole, is the lightest team
in the tournament. But the fight is
young yet, and any one of the nine may
win. The Canadians and the Scotch are
neck and neck, with two won and one
lost, each. The first place seems to lie
between these three. The odds are in
favor of the Canadians, in spite of
the strong work being done by
The Scotch and the NorwegianS.
The men in the Canadian team are
nearly all log drivers, lumbermen and
mill men. Their hands are as hard as

In that they have an advantage over
most of the other men. The NOrwe-
gians have been doing phenomenal
work, because they are we'll trained, but
their hands are getting sore. The same

Canada will pull against Sweden, France
against America, Germany against Ire
land, Scotland against Norway.

EDUCATION IN ENGLAND.
Rev. William Wilkinson Tells
What He Learned About 1t.

At St. Andrews Episcopal church
yesterday Rev. William Wilkinson, the
pastor, preached on Education in Eng
land' as he saw it there last summer.
After speaking of the former existence
of the idea that men and women OF
humble birth should be denied educa-
ton, he SAID:
"This sentiment yet fingers in many
minds. Happily its days are numbered,
and the sons and daughters of men who
have had to earn their bread in the
sweat of their brow are being given a
fair opportunity to rise in life, by that

DIR. Blacks Idea.

DR.. Black, of the First Presbyterian
church, took up the question last night,
but he treated it somewhat differently
from most of the other ministers. He
did not speak OF it as cause for union
between press and pulpit. He, rather,
can the world be made better
place to live in?'' That subject he
handled in the truly orthodox style. He
would make the world better by sup
pressing all vice. He incidentally men
toned that the newspapers should take
a hand III doing that, but did not postul-
ate that the newspapers might occasion
ally believe that the ministers had not
the right idea. He seemed to assume
that the orthodox church is the only
agent for making the world better, as
sisted, of course, by the police.

ASSERTIONS OF LIBERALISM.
DIR. Sample States Few OF Them
to the Peoples Meeting.

Rev. S. W. Sample occupied the plat
form at the peoples meeting last even
ing, and presented to his audience some
of "The Affirmations of Liberalism"
He began his statement by stating that
liberalism made many affirmations, al
though it was generally believed to
be principally founded in negations,
and proceeded to outline some of these
affirmations. He advanced as one of the
affirmations of liberalism that all social
adjustments must be brought about by
personal and indiT vidal reform. and that
they must be rested upon Christian
principles. He proclaimed himself
heartily in favor of the movement. re-
Gently started in New York to combine
the pulpit and press without regard to
creed or politics in an effort to make
this world better place to live in.
1--WE do not" he said. ''want to save
men from fictitious bells, but from the
bells of this world. The world will
never Judge US by what we claim for
our faith, but by what we do for it,
He then went on to state that he re-
joiced in the good work already done
by these meetings, but that there was
more work to be done. He was willing,
for the sake of continuing, to make
sacrifices to, refuse the offers of a
greatly increased income, to remain

WOULD JIM DO IT?
Aid. Bradish Says Let Hill Adj
vance the City's Share of EX-

pense.
Track lowering is in the air. Every
day or so some scheme is outlined tor
putting out of the way these dangerous
distractions to traffic on many of the
principal streets of the city. The same
objection holds good with all of them
the city has no money to put into track
lowering just at present. and will have
none for good long time. While the
municipal finances are in that condition
there is little use in talking about track
lowering, because none of the roads
can put down their tracks without the
city being forced to expend a large
amount of money-which it has not.
There is but one way out of this diff
Guilty. If the railroads want to put their
tracks below grade they may advance
the city'S share of the expense, and
trust to getting it back again. That can
be done, but may not be. Aid. Bradish
was discussing this phase of the queS-
ton the other day with reference to the
tracks in Northeast Minneapolis. He
said: q
Il believe that Jim Hill would adj
vance the money to the city if the prop
oSition were made to him to do so. That
is the only way we can get those tracks
in Northeast Minneapolis down below
grade for several years yet. | cannot
see any great objection to adopting that
plan. The same thing is done with the
street railway company every year. Not
a year passes but we order the building
OF sewer OR something of that kind for
which the street railway company adj
yanceS the money. 1t seems to work
very well. The only objection that
can see to it is that it is not the best
method of doing business from legal
standpoint. 1t is probable that If the
property owners were to kick, the
council would have no right to
allow the company to pay for
city work and be reimbursed later.
But it is done, and no trouble has ever
arisen from it. In case that plan were
adopted with reference to the Great
Northern tracks, the objection to it on
the legal ground would not be so great.
The difference is that sewer-building is
a special benefit paid for by the assess
ments on the abutting property bene-
flied. The lowering of these tracks
would be general benefit, and the city
could, / think, let the railroad company
advance the money, binding itself to
repay it at a certain date. The money
would come out of the city as q corpora
ton, and there being no special assess
ments, the individual property owner
would have no right to raise objection"
1t Is probable that when this track
lowering question comes up again, as it
is likely to do this week, some prOpO-
sitiOn with this end in view will be
made and submitted to the railroad

The tug Of-war tournament will begin

will be even more hard fought. The
teams are quite even so far. as may be
