the practice of law as in politics. In the but little more than two years that have elapsed since his goVernorship he has built up all extensive law business -one of the largest in Boston-which il is estimated yields him about $20,000 per annum. In this his political repu- tation has served him well, bringing him clients from distant parts of the union. He takes only civil cases, usually where large amounts are involved. He is es- peciaIly sought after to appear in hear ings before the legislature, where his splendid powers of argument and ora tory are brought into full play.
 He is one of the hardest working law yers in Boston. He enters his office at q little past nine in the morning, and often remains until half-past six or later, and even then often goes home to write briefs until far into the night.
 Though his legal practice has to a considerable extent kept him from di rect association with the people, he is as democratic in his ways as ever. He almost invariably rides to and from his Cambridge home in the street cars.
 That he has not deteriorated in ora torical powers was shown at the great occasion of Jefferson's birthday on April B at Monticello, Va, when he emu merated such ringing principles as to elicit admiration from opponents as well as friends. That speech moreover was fair illustration of MT. Russell's style of oratory-not effusive, not emo tional, but strong. logical, compelling interest from its clearness. This is the style of speechmalling that he has car ried on through long and hard-fought campaigns in his native state, where he has had to contend against the ablest and maturest minds There was 10 room for oratorical fiourishes; men

and arguments had to be overcome to satisfy his hard-headed constituents.
 Ex-Gov. Russell's residence is in the beautiful and historic part of the Uni- versity city of Cambridge, at the corner of Brattle and Charming streets. The grounds are large, with wide-stretch- ing lawns shaded by spreading elms. The house is of the Queen Anne style, and has stable to correspond.

Rus sells den, full of books, pictures and relics of college life. 1t bears every appearance of being a working room; and the busy lawyer and statesman burns good deal of midnight oil there at work over his briefs and speeches. Across the hall is the dainty drawing room, where the mistress of the house presides with charming grace. Near this is the dining-room, with a most in- teresting fireplace adorned with tiles painted by Mr. RusseIl's mother, with pictures representing old houses in
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1896-05-08

the center of which is q square desk table, atwhich Mir Russell sits and holds most of his conferences.
 On the wall back of this is large frame containing his portrait as gov ernor, surrounded by the pictures of the members of his staff in uniform. On sach side are photographic groups, rep resentng him and his council in the executive chamber, taken in 1891 and 1893.
 Another notable picture upon the wall is a group of mayors of the principal Massachusetts cities, among whom Mir. Russell appears as Cambridge's chief executive This photograph was taken when he was mayor at the age of 2s. In the rest of its appointments the room looks like busy lawyers office, with no political suggestions; there are neither leather lounges nor easy chairs 10 invite a luxurious smoke and pro- traeted discussion of electioneering methods
 AIr. Russell receives the visitor, whether he comes on legal or political business, by rising and giving firm but not etfusive hand-grasp.
 Now. my dear sir, what can I do for you?" is his customary way of getting directly at the matter at issue without unnecessary delay. Ie t is something

for Mir. Russell is now approaching mid dle life, being in his 10th year; he was born January 6, 1857
 He certainly makes no endeavor to keep up his reputation as q young man in politics, either by adopting the dress or manners of youth. His ssmoeth-shaven face and peculiar cast of eountenanee are the only attributes suggestive of youth at present. In fact, he is apt to impress a stranger as being singular ly aged young man, if such a term may be used. For his bearing is always dig nifed, and his face is naturally grave These characteristics have developed very fast during the last two years, since he left the gubernatorial chair and devoted himself to the practice of law. It has been q period of very hard work, and the cares of a busy lawyers life have drawn noticeable lines across the erstwhile smooth forehead and around the mouth, giving somewhat rigid out line to his beardless face.
 One who would know what manner of man ex-Gov. Russell is should see him at his law office in the Exchange build ing on State street, Boston. The door leading to these apartments is remark able in it's lettering, bearing on its glass panel the name of Russelline eghtplaees. You would think that all the Russells of Boston had gathered here and engaged n the law business together. In reality, there are but two firms of Russells- Russell X Russell, composed of Gov. Russell and his brother, Charles Theo- dore, and his cousin, Arthur H. Russell. ard the firm of C. T. and T. H. Russell, che senior partner of which (father of the ex-governor) is but lately de ceased.
 The ex-governor's private room is large, square, well-lighted apartment, in

that can be disposed of quickly, MT. Rus sell remains standing; if it requires careful consideration he invites his visitor to a seat at the desk opposite him.
 If the subject brought before him is Of I business or legal nature he brings q keen, weil-trained intellect to bear upon it and arrives at quick conclusions; if it is of a political character, he dis eusses it from the standpointo of a states man rather than a politician. He does not descend to talking of electioneering schemes, but goes straight to the funda- mental principle involved.
 As he rises to extend a greeting or adieu you note that he is of slender build and medium height, being about five feet eight; but his erect carriage and superb pose of head give the inn pression of much greater physical pro portions. His voice conveys this last impression, too, for it is deep and rich. To it he owes much of his power over men, whether speaking to them indi- vidually or in open court, or on the ros- trum.
 MT. Russell has been as successful in
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1896-05-08

which her family have lived during for mer generations.
 Gov. Russell was born nearby in the Hosford mansion, at Brattle and Sharks streets, where his mother, Mrs. Eliza beth Ballister Russell, still lives at the age of nearly so. Tn his birth chamber friend not long ago wrote with diamond on one of the window panes his name and date of birth.
 MT. Russell comes naturally by his political instincts and love of public af- fairs His father, Charles Theodore Russell, one of the most eminent law yers of his time, held many public of- fees. He was mayor of Cambridge, and member of the Massachusetts sen l ate
 One step further back and we find that Charles Russell, the grandfather of the present ex-governor, was also 9 member of the state senate from the Princeton district, and one of the gov | ernors councillors 50 years ago. He was locally known as Squire" Russell. These ancestors were all democrats and were strong pillars in the Congrega- tional church, to which their worthy de- scendant still adheres. Mr. RusselRs ancestors in this country date back to 1G40
 On his mothers side is an equally strong lineage. The name of Ballister is a corruption of the old French name, Ie Ballistier, belonging to a Huguenot family who sought refuge in this country and settled in Marblehead, Mass.
 William E. Russell's early education was received in the public schools of Cambridge, where he was prepared for college At 16 he entered Harvard, where he made a good, though not re- marlSable, record as q student, and took leading part in athletics. Graduating in 1877, he entered the Boston univer- sity law school with three ambitions to graduate at the head of his class, 10 win the William Beach Lawrence prize for the best essay and to deliver the class oration at commencement. All three he attained with the first "summa cum laude" ever given by this school. Tn 1880 he was admitted to the Suffolk county bar and began practice in Bos- ton in his fathers law firm.
 At the age of 28 NIT. Russell was mar ried to Miss Margaret Manning Swan, daughter of Rev. Joshua Swan, of Low ell, well-known clergyman. In the II years of happy married life which have now passed, three children have come into the household-the eldest, William Eustes, being nine years of age, his younger brother, Richard Manning. five years, and the youngest child, Margaret, two years old. The boys are tanned and rugged specimens of Young Amer ica, with no aristocratie style or airs about them.

"Russell-Russell- that's the boy-governor of Massachusetts"
 It is not surprising that this impress son of William E. Russell has gone abroad, for the pictures that have been circulated of him and the stories told of him have largely hinged upon his youthful looks and high office.
 But in Massachusetts he has ceased to be thought of in the youthful role, and is regarded as the prominent law yer, the eloquent orator and able states man. To those who meet him in every day life he appears as the practical, ma tare man of affairs rather than as the boy in politics. This is only natural
