BosroS, sept. 9-A. Davidson, Of

but 20 his surprise las relatives begged
hlm not 10 show himself on the street
Tor tear of arrest. Accordingly he hur-
RED hls departure. lie was Obliged 10
pass through Warsaw, and the othclal
who examined hls passport there told
him 10 report al the general spector's :.
"Before going to the inspectors, sad
Mr.. Davidson. Il saw the American
consul at Warsaw, and he wac greatly
concerned about me. | told hm the
American consul AT Berlin had counter
signed my passport, as had also the Rus
sian consul. OF course. | had not the
slightest idea that anything could harm
me, but the American Consul at War
saw said | had been mislntOrmed, that
there were three Russian laws affecting
me, tO-Wit: No American citizen mas u
right 10 remain IN Warsaw more than
twenty-four hours, no Hebrew can
enter Warsaw whatsoever, and an
American naturalized citizen Of Russian
BIRTH entering into Russia shall be seized
and put into the army or sent 10

Mr.. Davidson had to stand consider
able abuse from the police officials. and

try.
"If the State Department, says Mr..
Davidson, desires to do justice TO
American citizenship it can easily be
proven that there are many Americans
today who are languIshing in Russian
prisons awaiting transportation to
Siberia. Their friends in New York and
other American cities are spending
money IN vain 10 get them released. In

has been expended TO get an American

JUDGE I. p. CHRIsTIANCY.
Most Notable and Brilliant Man Dead
al Lansing.

LANSING, Mich, sept. 9.-After his
long and painful illness Judge Christi
any has suecumbed 10 the inevitable.
lis death occurred shortly after o
O'Clock last evening, and was painless
and peaceful as sleep. The cancer
which caused his death it WAS found
was seated IN the lower Jaw. but had 20
affected his throat that ne was not able
10 take much nourishment, and tins, Oh
course. had combined 10 weaken him.
More than all else. however, undouht-
edly was the desire OF the strong old
man for death. lie had so often sadly
alluded To the fact that all his old asso-
clatrs were gone while he was left 10
helpless old age.
Judge Christiancy was indisputably
the best Judge that ever sat upon the
Supreme bench of tins State, and no
less authority than Judge Emmons
placed him as jurist whose decisions
were better law than the books. He
was not rs scholarly nor brilliant, per-
haps, as Judge Campbell, but as a Judge
he never has been equaled. Ills decls-
IONS are historical. He was elected 10 the
L. ;. Senate, resignlng. ms judgeship
therefor. He was afterWaTd appointed
minister to Peru. He returned from
South America seven years ago, and
has since lived a plain. inactive, quiet
life on the old homestead near Lansing;
not the vigorous, sturdy man Of other
days, but simply a shadow OF his for
mer stature; bowed with age, clear IN
intellect and busy with legal Problems.
The Judge was born IN Johnstown,
y. y, IN March, 1912, and consequently
was IS years old. His education was
only that or a common school, supple
mented by unlimited and unceasng
reading. He came TO Monroe when q
years old, and practiced law until 1857.
lie was sn ardent Abohtonist, and a
delegate and leader IN the National
Free Soil convention at Buffalo in 1878.
In 1850 he was n State Senator,
and ran for Governor IN 1852 on
the Free SOIL ticket. The Fusion
movement between the Wing and Free
Soil party in 1854 was a movement OF
his, and from 1t sprang the Republican
party, of which Judge ChriStiancy was
the father. He was u delegate TO its
first National convention at Phlladel-
phla IN 1886.
He was first elected to the Supreme
Bench in 1857, and reelected for two
subsequent terms, the last one extend
ing from 1858 to 1871.
His last case IN the court of which
formerly he had formed a part, was
when Begole was Governor, and Trus-
tee Walker, of the Flint asylum, re-
sisted the attempt of the Governor to
remove. HIS last appearance as an ad F..
vocate IN any court was three years ago
at Monroe, ms early home.

Speaking of the President, the Hon,
John NJ. Thurston of Omaha said the other
day; In one phase of his character Mr.
Harrison is much misrepresented by his en-
emies aud almost as much misunderstood
by many of his friends He is painted as a
close, unapproachable, almost surly man,
with no sympathetic character whatever,
The fact is, that in his public relations he
is grave aud dignifed, measuring all mat
ters with solicitOus care that the judg-
ment may be hawless, and disposed to e.
strain himself from utterances which folly
or malice may miscoustrue. Yet in his pri-
vate relations, in hours of leisure, aud
among friends whom he trusts implicitly,
he is aifable to such degree that the ob-
server of that moment would depart with
the thought that the President of the Unit
ed States is jolly and companionable gen
tleman. That would be an opinion close 10
the truth | have found Mr.. Harrison
