GOSSIP OF The RACETRkCK
FINE FIELD ron SATURDAYS
BRfG HT0N HANDICAP :.
Notable Meeting az the Beach VIII begin
on "wednesday Lawrence Realization
IN he nun Tomorrow with All the
Cracks EIigtblc--The Card for To-day.

The annual summer meeting ~ the Brighton
Beach Racing Association. which opens at
the popular track by the sea on Wednesday.
bids fair to I've one of the best ever held in the
East. The liberality Of the Management
in hanging up rich stakes has been rewarded
by notable entry lists in all the events. which
means that racing Of the highest quality will
be seen at the BENCH for the ucxt three weeks
or 30. The Brighton Hnudtcap at one mile
and n quarter, worth sx 900 gross, will be
run next Saturday. This II the richest hnndt-
cap run in America and il usually attracts the
best horses in trainin G. together with possible
record breakers. This years entry list IL
no exception to the rule. In fact. the probable
field for the Brighton is. on paper. the best
that has been carded for tho post In a long
time. In addition to the best OF the older
division, which includes Nealon. the winner
of the Suburban; Dandelion. DIR. Gardner,
Flip Flap. Tokalon, Beacon Light, Cotton
town and others, the famous thYee-year-old
Peter Pan. Montgomery. Salvidere. Philander.
Electioncer, Ton y FausS and Faust will prob
ably start. which will make the big race OF
more than ordinary interest.
Boots Durnell has already predicted that
Faust. with 90 pounds. will he the victor.
and he bases this belief on the performance
81 the son of Mirthful IN the Suburban. when
he made the pace for a mile and a furlong.
Durrell will also start Nealon, hut the colt
must take up a penalty for his suburban
success, which makes his burden i2l pounds.
Unless DR.. Gardner improves vastly in the
next few days the sharps do not believe that
he will prove dangerous. But as the Bannock-
burn colt needs plenty Of work and actual
racing in order TO be made absolutely tit
Trainer Weir may succeed in sending him
10 the post on Saturday in far better trim
than he displayed In his race IN the Common
wealth. Peter Pan and Montgomery I'M
doubtedly the best three-year-olds In training
with Frurk Gill. who is not eligible for the
Brighton, not far behind them in point OF
merit. will have n chance to show what they
can do against these older horses. Peter
Pan must pick mp IFS pounds. while Mont
gomery's burden is 100. As Peter Pan won
the Advance stakes with III pounds in n
pig gallOp, it, IL not asking too much Of him,
It would seem, to send him after the Brighton
prize with four pounds more on his back.
Montcoulery's victory in the Commonwealth,
while extremely lucky. proved his merit and
gives him n rare chance to win the big event
at the Beach, Salvtdere and kloctioneer bo.h
have an opportunity to redeem themselves
and both will probabl start. From a long
entry list il looks as il these cligibles would

holy living on the part of Christian
men and women is desirable.
,. 1t is also implied that there is
not such holy living, at least it is not
as general as one may desire.
The paramount issue with the church
es is one of activity. Work for the
salvation of the lost. How may we
bring the world to Christ? There can
be no reason for the existance OF d
church as body of believers, aside
from that of missionary activity at
home and abroad. The truth of this
statement is evidenced by the fact that
organizations have received the seal
of Gods disapproval the moment they
refused to meet the issue, and whole
denominations wants he'd into oblivion
and are but a by-word and q Kissing.
Whatever, therefore, will hit the
churches for this worldwide work will
be admitted by all, to be desira-
bic, AS the churches are composed OF
individuals and seek to save individu-
ais, and work through individuals,
the secret of their power or weakness,
will be measurably determined by the
piety, or impiety of the individual
member.
, It's unquestionably true that church'
as may be numerically strong, we al
know of instances of the kind, whose
potentially in the work of the Lord
is deplorably small, or even nothing,
while, on the other hand, we have seer
churches numerically weak, but
"strong in the Lord and in the power
of His might" 1t is not difficult II
strike at the root of the matter in eacf
case. The one has lack of persona
piety among their members, while tht
other has much individual prayer ant
devotion. But here let Inc say ina
numbers in a church do not indicate
that there is lack OF piety.
Much prayer is an evidence OF con
viction and conviction is the main
spring TO action. saw this exempt

was a woman who was often found in
PRAYER and her bible was well thumb
worn.
On the other hand, | asked a lady
for a small contribution to mission
ary cause, after explaining to her tie
greatness of the needs, but she told
me in very plain manner that she
had nothing to give. Upon all occa-
siops she was one Of the most elabOr-
ately dressed attendants at the church
worship. What was the trouble?
Why, simply lack of a pious devo-
ton to God. | remember to have
called at her mothers home one day,
aud found her there. Just before leaV-
ing | asked her mother if might offer
PRAYER, to which she readily assented.
The mother and | kneeled, but the
daughter simply leaned her head upon
the back of her chair. She never
waits for the Lords Supper, and is
never known to commune with God in
His word. Here then, is an element
of weakness, even though she may
count one on the church roll
While these are individual cases,
they are types of classes in the men,
berships of the churches, and they are
| in every church. The question re-
solves itself into one of how to trans
form members of the former. The
change will not only effect the general
work, but will greatly influence, for
good, the activities Of the churches in
their local interests. For this classi'
fication holds good throughout al
lines of church life. I have known
men and women of the first class-mer
and women of prayer and deep piety-
to have the effect of their lives rend
cred zero by their very association, IL
a church capacity, with men ana "o
men whose lives were anything blu
pious and prayerful. Again the ques
ton arises: How may we bring abou
the transformation? "This kind 60
eth not out but by prayer and fast

returns in this way without muc
