TOLD OF LORD RUSSELL.

Eminent British JurigfB Interest In
Boys Sports, Even to Baseball.
There was hardly n more popular
character among British boys any
where than the late Baron Russell Of
Killowen, the lord chief justice of
England. He Joined in their games
frequently. Perhaps he was the first
lord chief justice that ever played leap
frog. He did this one year with some
Harrow boys on the green before the
school. But he should be particularly
liked by the boys of the United States
because he was in one of the few base
ball games witnessed in England.
1t came about in this way, says the
New York Sun. The Right Hon.
Charles Lord Russell of Killoweh, G..
C. NJ. c.. to give his full title, had been
known throughout his career as n
friend of field sports, particularly
cricket. He had been director In many
school boards. Whenever he visited
these schools, he asked the boys about
their games and occasionally took a
hand in them. That is how he came to
be cricket player and a tennis player
and various other things. Whenever
the boys of rival schools got up a
match, and the chief justice was with
In reach, he was called upon to um-
pire 1t. He rarely refused these invita-
TONS He told a class at Elton one
spring that he would prefer to be the
finest bowler in England than to hold
the premiership of Great Britain. The
boys gave him three cheers.
do of hnn
posed between some Southwark boys
In London and nine composed of lads
belonging TO parochial school of
which his lordsh.p was director. Now
a game of baseball is rare In England.
They prefer cricket over there. But a
few years ago an effort was made to
Introduce our national game into Brit
ain. 1t has not met with much sue
cess. The English say 1t Is too boyish.
Perhaps that may be why only the
boys of England have taken much in
terest In baseball as yet. When the
game was arranged, an umpire was
essential, particularly so In view of the
fact that nobody understood much of
the matter. Lord Russell was selected.
The game was great success. His
lordship did the umpirfng like a hero.
The London sporting newspapers made
very merry over the affair, particular
ly as one Of the teams got $50 runs
aud there were II innings. 1t seems
that the game ended very much sooner
than had been expected, and his ford-
ship suggested that they go ahead and
have more innings. He evidently
thought It was a usual thing. 1t must
have been a very remarkable game.
Sporting Life, In poking fun at his lord
ship, observed that nobody got put out
in the first inning at ALL In the fourth
inning the ball was lost and the man
at the bat made ten home runs, one
right after the other, and had them all
counted by the umpire.
However, Lord Russell was such a
lover of sports that one can easily for
give him. He was at the head of an
association which helps amateur sport
among boys and girls In England. He
himself had given many prizes. He
was an honorary member of q school.
