Lord Russell's career on the bench al
though but two years in extent, has con-
firmed the wisdom of his appointment,
and his most recent judicial act-his
prompt refusal to let legal bubbles ana
the cobwebs of precedent obscure the
Jameson case, is fresh in the American

America and will visit the great lakes.
Montague CrackanthorDe, 9. c. d. G.
L., is just year older than Lord russell
and was born in 1882. He is as aggressive
ly Saxon as Lord Russell is. aggressively
Celtic, and his whole history is that OF
the typical Englishman. He was born
Cookson, but on succeeding to the estates
which had been in the family since Ed
ward III he oh mood his era elk

aunt was the wife of the poet Words
worth AS a schoolboy, the future coun-
sellor was an apt scholar, taking many
prizes, and he gained many honors and
scholarships when he was at Oxford,
1S5O-54. On taking up the law he was
awarded the studentship of the -Four Inns
of Court in 1852 and in 1875 he was made
a queens counsel, and in 1877 became
benchman of Lincolns Inn. For many
years he was a leader in the courts OF
chancery, but of late has appeared large
ly before the house of lords and the jul
dicial committee of the privy council n
appeal cases. He has always been inter-
eSted in the practical aspect OF his pro-
fession and has written a number of mag
azine articles ON social, legal and political
subjects. Mr.. Crackenthorpe is legal in
former, is interested in methods of legal
education and takes a hand in these mat
tiers whenever he can. In politics he is
Liberal-Unionist; a political tour of
Ireland, which he made in 1887, as de-
tailed in his letters to the Times, has
given much meat for argument against
home rule. He is a noted public speaker,
and his addresses on political and social
subjects are among the best discussions

and entered parliament from York in 1885
as a Liberal. He is still Liberal, still in
parliament, where he is highly popular on
account of his wit and his wagglsh ten
denotes. He is wont to while away the
tedium of debst tie by drawing caricatures
of the members: some of these drawings
have become quite famous. His talent in
this line saw publicity when he illustrated

Frank has always been a friend of the
home rule movement, and was counsel for
the Irish party in the great case before
