The Rights of Society.

John Nj. Gregory in the Kansas City Star.
 Society is a silent partner in every mans business It protects the work CT in his work, and serves as watch man of the wealth products. It's arts lend power to both labor and capital; it's presence and civilization give value to all products: it's schools, churches institutions and manifold interests are so much public property lent to pri- vate use. What are the franchises, which careless CT corrupt city councils so often give way but the opportani- ties W which populations create? And what are these enormous values of city lots bnt the actveis and needs of large bodies of people? As civilization advances the needs of society increase. and it's right to share m each mans wealth is not enlarged. Taxation is taking private property for public use, but soeiety's share for society's S needs. The means 10 support govern ment in peace and war cannot be refused. and few question the right to mainta schools, and to provide for the indi- gent and infirm. A wiser policy now claims means for libraries, parks, good roads, water supply and other provs- ions for public intelligence and public wealth and comfort.

4 RULE AGAINST
 THE DIVORCED Discussion by Presbyte- rian Ministers of It's
 Advisa bility. Mrs. P. D. Brown Suggests New Law for the Pastors of That Denomination. The Doings at the Many Weekly Meetings Yesterday of the
 Local Clergy.

There was considerable excitement in thePresbyterian ministers meeting yes terday when Mrs P. D. Brown of the Occidental Board addressed the as- sembled clergy on the subject of di- vorce.
 She stated that there was law in this State which forbade people who had been divorced for less than year from marrying again within that time. Nevertheless she said this law was evaded and many people went to sea and had the ceremony performed She suggested to the ministers to form rule by which all the Presbyterian min isters would bind themselves not to marry any divorced person whose de- cree was less than year old.
 This remark started a debate, many of the ministers contending that if the County Clerk issued the license it was no business of theirs, while others said they would not marry a couple di- vorced less than a year for all the money in the United States.
 One gentleman stated that if min ister refused to marry couple after they had procured a license he was lia- ble to get into trouble.
 A suggestion was made that it would be well if law were passed ln the church in this State similar. to one In New York, declaring all couples must be closely questioned before the cere- mony is performed.
 There was no decision at yesterdays meeting, but the ministers decided to take the question up again.
 Elder Cornell read paper before the same denomination, and in it he ad- vised the clergy to discontinue read ing their sermons
 You never saw" he said, "a success full lawyer standing before jury read ing his argument, did you? Rather he is standing before them looking square ly in their faces and pleading his cause with an earneStneSS that cannot be mistaken Your auditors can hear if you face them squarely and will be more impressed if you look into their eyes occasionally"
 The Methodist ministers listened to an interesting paper on socialism by Dr. Bowler, who showed where social ism had been the cause of much strife in the world. He said: Tn looking back over the march of events as traced in the world of God we find many diff ferent forms of government, but we find none that conforms essentially to a system of socialism" He then went on to tell how the Franco Prussian war was caused by socialistic theories or principles.
 Dr. Dille spoke before the Christian ministers on Methodism.
 The Congregational ministers held their regular meting, as did also the Baptist clergy.

 side Track. Trolley Could Not Maintain Her Speed, Finishing
 Third. Lord Marrllion Won in Romp. Collins Scored Again in Easy
 Fashion.

The card for the opening day at 1n- gleside was light one so far as the number of entries were concerned, and the crowd had great day of it cashing tickets Every favorite with the ex- ception of Trolley went down the line and the twenty-six bookies doing busi- ness in the ring were hard hit. As founding prices were laid against some of the winners, due probably to a lack of business and the ever-eXpected
 good break"
 The rain left the track sloppy, but it did not prove bothersome, for the best horse won in nearly every instance. As usual on Monday the attendance was only fair
 The defeat of Trolley at odds-on in the final six-furlong run put quite a crimp in the talents winnings. Blar- ney Stone, with ''Skeets" Martin in the saddle beat the barrier, and leading throughout downed Prince Tyrant length at the wire. The favorite was a poor third.
 The two-year- r-olds were first to sport silk, eight lining up in a fourfurlong spin. The Conyeti colt, Formero, was made a to favorite in the betting, and though outrun the first part fin ished strong at the end and won easily from the Corrigan entry, Frank Ire land. Thorpe, on Odd Eyes, in trying his usual smart tactics at post, was practically left.
 The six-furlong event, with the weights raised ten pounds above the scale. looked a certainty for Lord Marmion, but the play on the race was so light that the books finally offered to against his chance. With Willie Martin up, he skipped to the front when the barrier was released and won under a half dozen wraps. Mainstay the second choice, was beaten out for the place by Triumph.
 The brown gelding. Collins, was again ready money in the mile and furlong selling run. Two to one was always obtainable about him in the ring. Jones. who had the mount, hustled Dr. RowelTs horse to the front, and cutting out the running was eased up at the finish five lengths in front of Can't Dance. the third choice. Little Cripple, with Conley in the saddle, se- cured show honors. Paul Pry couldn't untrack himself.
 A five-furlong scramble for maiden three-year-ol replaced the declared off fourth race. Ping, with Lonnie Clayton up, looked a legitimate l to 3 chance but the books laid g to 10 against him at post time. He led all the way, winning hands down from the second choice, Roulette Wheel. Joe Levy ran into show.
 Fashion Plate, with Thorpe up, had the call in the betting on the seven furlong purse affair. HarveyS mare was headed for half the distance by Won't Dance. when she assumed the lead and found no difficulty in leading Veragua past the judges by three lengths. Tulare was a handy third.
