In the Metropolis the prisoner in the first instance is brought before a magistrate, technically known as the 'beak, who, in addition to being a person of great acumen, is a stipendiary, and thus occupies a superior position to the ordinary 'J.P., who is one of the great unpaid. In the City of London is the Mansion House Justice-Room, presided over by the Lord Mayor or one of the Aldermen.
On one occasion at one of our Labrador hospitals a beardless youth, one of the Methodist candidates for college who every year are sent down to look after the interests of that denomination on our North coast, came to inform me that the only other magistrate on the coast, the pillar of the Church of England, and shortly to be our stipendiary, who had many political friends of great influence in St.
These men, having received their salary, shamelessly got together from every country and carried off everything that they could. The stipendiary commission went from one place to another, plundering the subjects of the Empire in the name of their office.

Russia is a great Power, as England is, and in treating with her you must consider that the Russian Government has to consult its own dignity, its own interests, and public opinion, just as much at least as the Government of this country.
On the borders of the Lincolnshire fens, half-way between Stamford and Peterborough, stands the little village of Helpston.
