man, and possessed Of high mental and
moral culture. His character is blame
less, and the power Of his work in the
premises is augmented by the unas-
sailable purity Of his life.
He was born at Howden-on-Tyne,
Northumberland. England, in the year
1850. His father was scholarly min
lister of the Congregational Church, but
poor, and, as matter Of necessity, the
instructor Of his children, whom he edu-
Gated with great righteousness. Their
mental powers were tremendously de-
veloped early in life, and before he was
twelve years old W. L. Stead could re-
port a sermon from memory with aa-
curacy. At the age indicated he was
sent away from home to school, where
he remained two years. When only
fourteen years old he began to earn his
livelihood.
His first employment was as clerk in
the Russian Consulate at Newcastle-on-
Tyne. When, a few years after, he
became journalist, his extraordinary
aptitude for the work was obvious, and
when only twenty-one years old he be-

castle. While holding this position
his editorial articles attracted wide
attention. Mr.. Gladstone, Mr.. Bright,
Mr.. John Morley, and other emf

and when Mr.. Morley needed an assist

Gazette he engaged Mr.. Stead for the
position. With the retirement of Mr..
Morley came Stead's inevitable promo
ton to the conduct Of one of the most
influential journals published in Lon

Mr.. Stead was married while editor
