In an equity suit in Sydney last week, concerning the will of Sir Peter Nicol Russell, formerly of Sydney, who made large bequests to the Sydney University', an incident was related of how Sir Peter Russell on one occasion dealt with workers who threatened to go on strike. Sir Peter Russell at that time had an iron foundry business in Sydney. He refused compliance with certain demands, and the men announced their determination to cease work. “If you go on strike,” said Sir Peter Russell, “I’ll shut these works and never open them again.” He was a man of his word. The hands went out, the gates were closed, and never more was the clang of steel-heard inside them. Sir Peter Russell went away to England and lived there until his death. There was a young man of Madrid, Who said to a 12-year-old Rid ; “Take my advice, Sonny, don’t waste all your money, Buy a Red Bird,’’ —The Kid did.
