His reputation grew rapidly and sol- idly, assisted as much, perhaps, by work executed outside the immediate sphere of "political activity" as by purely Parliamentary labors. His love | for Scotland, her triitions, and a sacly af arent, while hi interest in ®If matters pertaining to questions of foreign policy became gradually made. evident. He was a young man of unlimited interests-- perhaps of rather dangerous versatil- ity--and the great game of states and territories, with its shifting fortunes and ever-changing conditions, must have made an jrresistible appeal to his intellect and emotions. _ He began his Ministerial career very humbly, taking office in Mr. Gladstone's second 'Administration as Under Secretary for State in the Home Department. Two years later he ac- cepted the Privy Seal, afterwards mi- rating to the Office of Works. Final y he came to anchorage at his ap- pointed harbor as Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.

He was recogni by all rties as a Minister of strength pL ge jon, as one who was intellectually capable of resolving all the heterogeneous fac- tors of European politics into just and proper perspective. His breadth of outlook, enabling him, as it has always done, to understand va- rious and antithetical points of view, and to enter into atmospheres and conditions peculiar to this or that lo- cality, social class or country, render- ed him particularly fitted for the tasks of the Foreign Office, although it may he surmised that such a versatility of gympathies and so com a power of observation, seeing all things in every relative light and changing sha- dow, must have retarded rather than assisted his personal advancement to political supremacy. The knowledge that the foreign affairs of the nation were entrusted to a patriot, who could be relied upon to meet any emergency that might arise with a patriotism as fearless as it would be equitable and just, tended to promo security in the England of 1886. Rosebery's stewardship of his difficals office in years demonstrated thai such a was hot misplaced. Of "his work in literature one can say little here.

He was one of the detectives im. { vestigating the series of Jack the Rip- { per crimes, and it was for his {in this work that he was R-- rank of detective sergeant. He rose rapidly, and became i r at Bow street, which led to his gaining the post of chief inspector four years ago in succesgion to Mr. Froest. His career has been one long, ad- veuturous criminal hunt, and it is | noteworthy that he bad to {deal with many dangerous men he ! never carried a revolver until the hant {after Crippen, and only used { handcuffs about three times.

All the important investigations came his sway; he frequently had to leave for the continent at a moment's notice to secure the arrest of some international swindler. He has often said that, while it is imagined that ection of crime: is now made easier the use of tele- grams and improved Nocomotion, the truth is that the work is far more dif- ficult to-day. / Criminals are better educated than they used to be, the means of escape { are much easier, and there are so { many .ways by which a wanted man | may cover up his tracks. scour & country for a criminal ay Ireland England's Pantry.

Mr. Hesketh Prichard, the novel. ist, whose articles on exploration in Labrador, published in Fry's Maga- zine, are arousing so much interest, has from earliest manhood been a great wanderer. Heo has bee a pioneer huntsman 'in many remote eorners of the world, notably Patagonia, whose unexplored wilds he traversed ati the beginning of his career. He has also distinguished himself as a gricketer, and bowled so well for Hampshire that he played for the Gentlemen against the Players at Lord's in 1904, when he captured eight wickets and made a big stand with F. 8. Jackson. The Gentlemen had nine wickets down for 112, aghinst s score of 327 by the Players. Hasketh Prichard does not profess to be a batsman, but by keeping a straight bat in front of his pads he helped Jackson to put on 39, Xa -- ai itl A Bundle of Straws.
