The career Of the late Rev. DIR.
Houghton of New York abounded in
examples Of the truest sort of Chris
tan love and charity. He was known
the world over as the rector of "The
Little Church Around the Corner" yet
his becoming so known was merely
the result of one incident of his kindly
ministration to all who came to him.
"A good story is told as characteristic
of the man. One of the foremost men
in his church was arrested for forgery.
DIR. Honghton fastened to his side and
received "a confession of guilt. He adj
vised him to plead guilty, and within
three days the man was in Sing Sine
prison During these days the rector
kwas with him almost constantly. When
@.he man was released DR.. Houghton
was the first to show his belief in the
'enuineness Of his repentance. and
through the good rector's steadfast
friendship the former convict was en-
sbled to rehabilitate himself with his

ence of the community.

Their Efforts.

Chicago, Jan. 8. - A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
Spain is considering a formal request
to the United States to use its good
offices to stop the fighting in Cuba.
limitations have been received at the
state department that the Sagasta gov
eminent had become convinced that
the only way to save Cuba was to ac-
cept the often proffered good offices OF
tho United States. Canovas repeated
~ replied to President Cleveland de-
clining these good offices, and Sagasta
did the same last November. Now the
prime minister has become completely
disheartened over the evident failure.
Of autonomy.
All efforts of Spain to bride the sub
Ordinatcs of Gomez to surrender on
the basis of home rule have proven
futile. Blanco has completely failed
in his efforts to open up communica--
ton with the insurgents, and PandO
has likewise been defeated in the field.
The Spanish minister now feels that
the only thing left is to accept the
good offices of Uncle Sam in spite Of
the humiliation involved. They hest
tate only because they feel that n. pub
lie announcement of this fact would
result in revolution in Spain. Secret
negotiations with the state department
are now actually in progress. The
Spanish government has lost the con-
fideIce of the loyalists in Cuba. and
it recognizes the fact that the island
itself is lost entirely unless this coun-
try will ut this late day negotiate With
the insurgents for some basis of peace.
The Spanish propose that the United
States should propose to the insur-
gents that actual armistice pending ne
gotiations for peace on the basis of
American guarantees of the integrity
of home rule, or even Of independence

AiBoston man advertises that he will
paint and interpret family coats of
arms" We take it as one of many
signs that pride of descent, or mild
form of ancestor-w worship, is growing in
America. This sentiment is honora-
able and useful, when it helps to pre-
serve worthy memories and to nurture
fine family traditions; it becomes sill
1y affectation when it merely ministers
to the vanity which shines by light re-
hected from former times. Did not
John the Baptist hit hard when he
said, 'tThink not to say, We have Abb
raham to cur father; for God is able
Of these stones to raise up children
unto Abraham" The truest descend
