TON.
"Young Houston," said John M.
Clay ton, shortly before he died in con-
fidence to friend, ISIS the ablest man
of his age in the State of Delaware to-
day." This was good many years
ago, when the present generation was

fond Of predicting future greatness tor
his favorite pupil, and how fully those
predictions were verified is known to
all Delawareans.
John Wallace Houston, the congress
sional nominee of Delaware Republi-
cans, was born at Concord, Sussex
county, in May, 1914. His father,
John Houston was a leading men in
Concord aud the Houston family was
one of the first in Sussex. John Hous-
ton was a merchant, tannes and vessel
owner. His parents were strict Pres.
by terisns. DR.. D. II. Houston of Lew
es is brother Of the subject of this
sketch. Before the Judge attained his
majority his father died. As q boy he
was active, unusually bright and in
telligent.
In 1884 graduated from Yale college
and entered the law Office Of John M.
Clayton at Dover. 10 1887 he was ad-
mitted to the bar and soon opened an
office in Georgetown where he prac-
ticed his profession with great ability,
and soon took rank with leaders in
the legal profession. Hon. Edward
Wootten was associated with him in
many cases.

TorEKA, KS, December 3l.-A staff
correspondent OF the Chicago Mtcr. OCEAN,

from here giving his conclusions. He

land and are making good progress in
farming. Most OF the balance have
found through the Freedmen's Relief
Association places as laborers, and giving
good satisfaction, and in no county did he
find them applicants or burdens on the
corporated charities, but the demands for
these laborers have been Stretched TO IFS

refugees at the bai racks, now nearly 700,
for whom places can be found, clearly in.

from the refugees themselves and from
their increasing number, which is now
from twenty-five 10 thirty arriving every
day.

The annual Sabbath School Conven-
tion OF this county, met here to-day and

to the bad state Of our roads the attend

than was anticipated. The convention
opened promptly at $50 +. NJ. with ]. W.
Allison MS President. After the usual
devotional exercises, tho topic: "The
place aud purpose OF Sabbath schools"
was introduced by ]. W. Linduff in short
speech, and followed by Mr.. o. S. Mar
shall, Oh whose elegant address we need
not comment. Several others spoke, and
much interest.being manifested in this
subject, the hour allotted to it was not sui-
iiclent and more time was granted for its
discussion.
Rev. Thompson, ofthe Disciples Church,
Wheeling, closed this topic with neat
and well pointed speech.
/. The next subject on the programme was
on teachers meetings, with Messrs. How
ard and Quinn as the main speakers. This
closed the afternoon session.
The Convention met again at $3.50 p. NJ.
and was greeted with one OF the largest
assemblies that ever met hero. After in
troductory, exercises. DR.. Cunningham, OF
Wheeling, was 10 have delivered a lecture,
but owing to sickness he was unable to be
here, great disappointment to many who
were desirous OF hearing him. Rev. Pome-
roy filed the time thus nnoccupied, by an
interesting address on Sabbath Schools
as a Benefit 10 the People"
The topic, "How can we lead Children
to Jesus" was next taken up by Rev.
Gregory, and ADLER arguments could hard
" be presented. This was the finest
effort yet made before the Convention
and was highly appreciated by the audi
ence, and tho attention given those follow.
ing him shows tho deep interest our pe0.
pie have in Sabbath School work.
The remainder OF the evening was
occupied In talks on Sabbath School ex-
pcriences. There is no donh,. that il TO.

WASHINGTON, December SO.-The New
York Herald is largely responsible for
bringing General Grant before the public
as Presidential candidate, but since the
furore has started 1t has been trying to
hedge, and recently that paper has con-
tanned many powerful arguments why
General Grant should not be nominated
again. These articles have contained
many severe criticisms upon Grant, aud
no doubt he has read them, for the Herald
applied to the General yesterday for per.
mission for Jerome Stilson, one OF Its cor
respondents, to accompany him on his
trip to Cuba and Mexico. The General re.
piled by telegraph quite curtly that II
would not be agreeable to have Mr.. stilson
accompany the party.
