Shrewd observers, however, soon detect the presence of a strange quality of subtlety in the

man. It is as rare as it is fascinating. In his speech, countenance, and bearing he is as far removed from Machiavellianism or Asiatic craft as it is possible to conceive.”

But the quality of imagination, which en- ables him to. penetrate motives, to perceive with lightning glance the central fact of the most complicated situation, and swiftly to com prehend the combinations of bis enemy, is faculty with which the fairies have endowed Sir John Fisher with unstinted hand... He is also alive with incandescent common sense

This touch of Oriental. subtlety grafted on the broad strong stem of Anglo-Saxon direct- ness and resolute will unites in a personality at least as interesting as that of any living statesman. It is impossible that Fisher can be more ignorant of his own commanding abilities or of the extent to which he towers above. men who are his political superiors than a beautiful girl is ignorant of her charm, yet there is no trace of vanity. Nobody ever saw him display irritation or despair when he finds that his views are over-ridden by his political chiefs. Sensitive as a woman to the traditions of the service, he carries loyalty to his political chiefs almost to the verge of quixotism, although he knows that upon him. and not upon them, depends the wealth, peace, and safety of the country; that to him, not to

them, will the country look when the storm

breaks.

Heaven help the submarine enemies of Britain that fall into Fisher's hands. Short shrift will be their lot. The next naval war with a Great Power will test the British race, and if that war breaks out during Fisher's command, Englishwien men may rest assured that there will be no naval replica of Nicholson's Nek.
