DIR. GEORGE HOUGHToN DEAD.
Pastor of the FamOus Little Church
Around the Corner.

Pastor of the FamOus Little Church
Around the Corner.
The Rev. DR.. George Houghton, the ven-
cradle and beloved rector of the Church Of
the TRANSPORTATION, in New York City, bet
ter known as 1.-The Little Church Around
the Corner" died suddenly yesterday after
noon. His death was due to congestion of
the lungs.
Years ago Actor George Holland died in
New York city. His friends. among them
Joseph Jefferson. applied to the minister of
a certain church in Madison avenue for
the performance of the funeral rite but
they were repulsed with the chilling state
ment that no actors could be buried from
that church. There was a little church
around the corner, the pastor said, where
they might do such a thing.
From THE Little Church Around the
Corner George Holland was buried the
next day. The name thus given contemp-
tuoEsiy has chung to the Church of the
TRANSPORTATION ever since, and The Little
Church Around the Corner" and its loved
rector have stood high in the affections of
theatrical people and their friends for
many years.
The last sad rites have been performed
by DIR. Houghton over the bodies Of some
Of Americas greatest actors. Lester WAL
lack. Dion Boucicault. H. j. Montague and
Edwin Booth went to their graves from
The Little Church Around the Corner
and 1t was from there that James Lewis
long known and loved by New Workers. fol-
lowed them only little while ago.

A wife's Patriotism.

The words of the wife were:
How long-how long shall arrogance tri-
umph and humility weep: How long shall
the insolent stranger possess our lands,
and bestow our Inheritance Upon his heirs ?
What avails it that our mountains and val
leys are inhabited by men IL their swords
that ought to be drawn in their country's
service-are only worn for show? How
long shall the Helvetian mother weep over
her unhappy offspring, and feel herself at
once the wife and the nurse of slaves?
How long must our sons bear the insulting
yoke, and our daughters be exposed to in
suit and shame. while We by our silence
give countenance to the oppressor? Are
our chains so firmly riveted as not to be
wrenched asunder by patriotic hands? Mo-!
witnesses of their countrys degradation
can only weep and pray, men" Stauffa cher
men should do more!'
To this, said Miss Saurer Stauffacher
made no reply. but Fastening t. the lake
at once embarked in his skiff, and landing
in the canton Of Uri, proceeded to the
house of Walter Fuerst, at Attinghausen
where he found young Arnold Melchthal Of
Onterwalden,. who had. escaped from the
vengeance Of Landenberg and remained
mere IN concealment. These three men
then deliberated as to what II would be best
to do, and finally fixed upon the secluded
glen or Gruetli, on the western shore Of
Lake Uri, as the place where they would
meet in future to definitely formulate plans
of deliverance."
Tn. event referred to was portrayed in
the second tableau.
1t was necessary to repeat the tableaux
several times. Selections by the orchestra
and a solo by Professor e. Holer, entitled
IAN Mein Vaterland," were given between
scenes.
At the conclusion Of the program proper,
an Irish jig was danced by Misses Verney
and Ella Schmid. the little daughters of Mr..
Alexander Schmid. which was greatly en-
joyed. General dancing then commenced
and continued until late hour.
The Participants.
Those who participated in the tableaux
were Mrs. M. Rhyner, Emil Wellaner. John
Hitz, Joseph W. zimmerman, Emily E.
Sauter, Miss Anna c. Rhyner, Christina,
Florence. Clarence Frank and Ella Schm:d.
Mamie Edmunds and Charles Halstead.
Professor E. Holer of the Arion Singing
Society, acted as musical director. The
floor managers were Miss Anna c. Rhyner
and Mr.. Edward s. Schmid. The ladies' re-
ception committee consisted of Mr. E. Ho-
Ter. Mrs. NJ. A. Custer and Mrs. NJ. Rhy-
ner, while the joint committee of arrange
ments comprised John Hitz, Mrs. H. Pts
ter, Emil Wellaner, Edward s. Schmid,
Emil Holer. Miss A. C. Rhyner, Jos. w.

The Tnbleaux.

DR.. Pioda was loudly applauded. The
chorus sang Der Schwizer Psalm and
then Miss Emily E. Sauter most feelingly
described the tableaux.
Werner Stauffacher sturdy yeoman of
Schwyz. alarmed by the envy with which
the Austrian Bailiff Landenberg had no.
ticed the appearance of wealth and COM
fort distinguishing his homestead at
Steinen, was wont to sit at eve in front of
his house, brooding over the sad state of
the country" she said Not until reused
by the entreaties of his wife, woman of
heroic spirit. did he go forth to deliberate
with two other trusty fellow confederates
OF Uri and Unterwalden upon measures
which resulted in Switzerland's final de-
livery from tyranny"
This scene was portrayed by the first
tableau. Continuing. Miss Sautar said that
Stauffacher's wife stood hushed before him
for time, and then asked to be told what
troubled him.
