AsNRY LAeoucHERE DEAD
End Comes to Founder and Editor Of
London truth

Henry Labouchere, founder and
editor of Truth, and long one of the
most brilliant and conspicuous men
in English public life died yesterday
at the age of 81, at his beautiful villa
in the suburbs OF Florence, Italy.
For many years he sat in Parliament,
where he was conspicuous rather
than successful. His exceptional
ability fully entitled him to place
in the cabinet, but Mr. Gladstone,
with whom he worked IN behalf Of
home rule, was no doubt well advised
in not finding a cabinet position for
so irregular and alarming an ally.
Labouchere's place was unique; 1t is
summoned up In his nickname,
"Labby." familiar abbreviation in
which there was little of the affec
ton that came to be expressed In
Beaconsfeld's Dizzy" England to
the last never quite knew how to
take 'Labby', but it stood a-tiptoe to
listen, whether he spoke in his satiri
cal weekly, Truth, or from his fav-
orite corner seat in the House OF
Commons, the best place in the cham
Der to make his eagerly expected
epigrams carry
