Who Will Succeed Gresham.

WASHINGTON, Nav 28.-Although
the benediction has not yet been pro-
noupced over the remains of the late
Secretary Gresham, the self-cocstructed
Cabinet makers are busy speculating
upon the appointment of the next
Secretary of State. Names are being
suggested from all quarters without the
slightest hope OF expectation Of their
owners being called to occupy the va
cant seat at the Cabinet table. cut there
appears 10 be some personal grati6ca-
ton iu having ones name mentioned in
connection with such an important of
fee.
To the Southerc colony the names Of
Ambassador Eustis. Minister Ransom
and Ex-senator Butler, of South Caro-
lima. are mentioned, but it is not con-
sidered probable that either of the
first two named have any aspirations 10
that direction, and Senator Butler can
not be regarded as a possibility. The
gossips are also transferring Attorney
General Olney to the State department
and stating Don Dickinson for the At
torney Geueralship.
The name that meets most favor with
the rank and file is that of William e.
Whitney, Of New York. 1t is gene.
rally supposed here that be could OBJ.
taio the vacant portfolio if he would
accept it, but his personal friends. who
are grooming him for the Presidential
nomination, Insist that ne cannot afford
to 90 into the Cabinet at this late day
and under the existing circumstances.
In Administration circles the name OF
Ambassador Bayard is frequently
heard. aud also the name of Senator
GRAY, Of Delaware, and Acting Secre-
,ary of State Ubl. In official circles
the latter is clipped" as sure winner,
90: only because Of bis experience With
our foreign relations, but because of
the signal ability be has shown on seve-
raj occasions when called upon to act
promptly in the absence of Secretary
Gresham. The only objection urged
against rim is that he is not enough of
representative party mao for such an
important position.

MISQUOTED LINES.

1t is peculiar faculty of human
memory TO misquote proven BIS al poetry
and almost invariably to place the credit
where it does not belong. We give be-
low few familiar expressions that are
generally misquoted;
Nine men out of ten thiIk that the
Lord tempers the wind to the shorn
lamb" is from the Bible. whereas Law
renee Sterne is the author. Pouring
oil upon the troubled waters is also as
cribed to the sacred volume, whereas it
is not there; in fact, no one knows it's
origin.
Nothing is more common than to
hear
"A man convinced against his will
Is of the same opinion st.l.''
This is an impossible condition of
mind, for no one can be convinced of one
opinion and at the same time hold to an
opposite one. What Butler wrote was
eminently sensible
HE that complies against his will
is OF MS own opinion sui.
A famous passage of scripture is often
misquoted, thus: He that is without
sin among you, let him cast the first
stone" 1t should be, Let him first
cast a stone"
Sometimes we are told, Behold how
great fire little matter kindleth!'
whereas ST. James said, Behold how
great a matter a little fire kindleth,"
which is quite different thing.
We also hear that miss is as good
as mile.' which is not as sensible nor
forcible as the true proverb. "a miss of
an inch is as good as a mile"
Look before you leap" should be.
be. Look before you ere you leap"
Pope is generally credited with having
written
'Immodest words admit of 40 d-fense.
For want of dec, ncy is want of s. n, e."
though it would puzzle anyone to find
the verses in his writings. They we're
written by the Earl Of Roscommon, who
died before Pope WAS born.
Franklin said Honesty is the best
policy" but the maxim is of Spanish or
igin. and may be found 10 Don Quix-
ote. '-Eechdnge.

w. w. STORY.

William Wetmore Story, whose death
occurred Oct. s, at Vallombrosa. Italy,
was singularly gifted personality.
Though chiefly known as sculptor. he
was the author of some much admired
books on art. and of a charming work on
Roman life and customs. He was an &C
complished linguist and musician,
poet and painter of conceded parts, and
jurist of acknowledged ability. OF his
antecedents, the grandfather was DIR.
Elisha Story, one of the Boston tea
party and subsequently, distinguished
surgeon in the Revolutionary army; his
father. Joseph Story, was prominent
politician, and one of the most disting-
uished iurists of his time. Mr.. Story's
passion for the fine arts led him to Italy
ia 1913, when he was twenty years
old, and here he made his home. His
studio in Rome WAS popular resort for
visitors and Mr.. Story's gracious greet
ing was thing to bs remem bered. To
friend Mr.. Story is reported to have
said that when it was given to him to
live 10 Italy his life became perfect in
his sight. and he asks nothing more Of
fate than to live long enough, under
these highest and happiest conditions,
to work at the many ideal subjects which
crowded upon his imagination. Born to
wealth, and wealthy all his life, there is
added luster to his genius that he gave
himself to unremitIing aud arduous
work for the achievement of the best
which God had given him the talent to

difference but to the noblest tasks to
which belief in human brotherhood
must ever prompt. One thing we need
to learn, however. "The best way of ad-
vancing this great enterprise, for. as
Carlyle says. in substance, "a giant can
not overturn mountains by main
strength, but dwarf may do so with
his shovel
submit that all these interests are
as worthy of our attention as any other
questions that have occupied this Con-
vention in past sessions. 1t may all be
summed up in the words of Jesus: eff
ye abide in me, shall bring forth much
fruit Thou shalt love the Lord thy
God with all thy heart and strength and
mind, and thy neighbor as tbyself.
Finally, back of all motive is character
"a consecrated ministry upheld and
supported by an earnest people. When
all Universalists are animated by the
spirit of their religion, there will be no
lack of religious enthusiasm or of offer
or the extension of our church.
And what better illustrations have we
either of the power of character itself or
the influence of Universalism in the
foundation of noble lives than are sug-
geeted by the names of James Chaplin or
Isaac Lewis? The memories of the good
are like chimes of bells that ring out
sweet music whenever they are touched.
l recall in this connection one who is in
all our thoughts as we miss his noble
presence from this assembly! Surely
"a prince in Israel hath fallen" God
be praised that we can count among our
heroes, saints, and leaders Alonzo Ames
Miner. Oh, happy the church that could
feel the inspiration and profit by the
counsels of such leader With his
great natural endowments, his strong
convictions of right, his gracious spirit.
and his entire devotion to the church
which he had served so long, he might
with no improperly have used the words
of st. Paul, Brethren, be We followers
of me-"
And may l dare to say that the dying
message which DR.. Miner sent to the
ministry should be accepted by all our
people as the final condition of real
peace and prosperity-"Be ye faithful"
Brethren, before us are the old and
sacred tasks of the church of God.
We will believe in ourselves and re-
spect ourselves as under Christ, set
for the defense of the Gospel. May
the splendid inspirations of our faith
awaken within us courage, fidelity,
and patience, and lead us to a more
complete conservation to her sublime
tasks. Ruskin has said: THE man who
has once surrendered all to God will
henceforth surrender to nothing but
God" and SO, whatever difficulties may
lie before us, with our blessed heritage
from the past and our confidence that
God is for us, may we not with joy en-
dure hardships and labor vaiantly, hav.
ing ever upon our lips and in our hearts
the gracious words of the Psalmist:
peace be within thy walls and prosper
ity within thy palaces"
For my brethren and companions
sake l will say, Peace be unto you"

IAN MAOLAREN ON FATHER
HOOD"
The Church Hiding Christ.


Rev. John Watson, of Liverpool
C'Ian Maclaren"), has written a strik-
ing article on Brotherhood the Final
Idea of God" After speaking of what
we owe to Jewish prophets and
Psalmists for the evolution, under
divine guidance, of the idea of God,
he shows that the Fatherhood was
the special revelation of Christ.
"When one passes from the Cos
pels to the Psalms he is struck by
the absence of Father. When one
returns he is struck by its presence.
The Psalmist never said the word;
Jesus never said anything else.
with the single word Father,
Jesus instantly defines the relation of
man with God and Eliminates the
ology. What an astonishing gau-
cherie it has been to state the init
mate relations between God and the
soul in the language of criminal law,
with bars, prisoners, sentences!
One is aghast to discover that the
doctrine which Christ put in the
forefront of his teaching did not
leave a trace on the dominant the
ology of the Early Church, and for
long centuries passed out of Chris
tan consciousness.
The Anglican community has thir-
ty-nine articles, with one on oaths,
one on the descent into hell, one on
the marriage of priests, one on how
to avoid people who are excommuni-
Gated, and not one on the Father
hood. The Presbyterian communion
has a confession with thirty-three
chapters which deal in trenchant
manner with great mysteries, but
there is not one expounding the ia
therhood of God. This silence
from the date of the Greek fathers to
the advent of the modern Broad
Churchman has been more than an
omission; it has been a heresy.
'The disciples of Jesus owe debt
that can never be paid, to three men
who have brought us back to the
mind of our Master. One was Chan
ming, for whose love to Jesus one
might be tempted to barter his belief;
the other was Maurice, most honest
and conscientious of theologians; and
the third was Erskine of Linlathen,
who preached the Fatherhood to ev-
eryone he met, from Thomas CARLYLE
to highland shepherds"
To the objection that life's stern
realities contradict Christ's concep-
ton of Father God, he replies:
with the record of his own life
before one, it is not open to conclude
Jesus was wrong. He drank the bit
terest cup, and yet reconciled the in
calculable tragedy of his own life
with the love of his Father.
mo one can seriously doubt that
Jesus dearest thought will dominate
theology. No doctrine of the former
theology will be lost; all will be re-
carved and refaced to suit the new
architecture. Sovereignty will re.
main, not that of despot, but of a
father; the incarnation will not be
an expedient, but a consummation;
the Sacrifice will not be satisfaction,
but reconciliation; the end of grace
will not be standing, but character;
the object of punishment will not be
retribution, but regeneration. Mercy
and Justice will no longer be amino.
mics; they will be aspects of love;
and the principle of human probation
will be exchanged for the principle of
human education"

rose to 304, 1884, or ten per cent. more than
the total five years previous, and in 1896
345, SOC inhabitants, the gain being about
thirteen per cent. from 1895. A consid.

The story comes. from Washington that
Germany has intimated to the admins
tration that she is not anxious for the
summoning of the monetary conference,
and is perfectly satisfied with her pres
ent monetary system. 1t is understood
that Germany has been forced into the
position she has taken by the demands of
the agrarian memb ers of the reichstag,
and it was with a view of keeping them
empire that the government assented to
taking part in new conference. 1t was
a political play such as has often been
made by parties in the United States

No less than one hundred and five per-
SOILS have been killed by the Brooklyn
trolley. cars since July 1892. says the New
York Sun. The last fatality happened on
Tuesday, when woman had her head
literally cut off. A great part of these
accidents are believed to have resulted
from the excessive speed at which the
cars have been run. 1t is a terrible
record, and it is no wonder that in the
recent strike public sympathy was al
most entirely with the strikers.
