GOULD

Carruthers, the great cartoonist, was bom in 1845, and began life in a stockbroker’s office. In 1879 he began to illustrate the Christmas number of Truth, and afterwards joined the staff of the Pall Mall, from which he transferred his services to the Westminster Gazette, when the Pall Mall was bought by Mr. Astor. He is one of the cleverest of modem political cartoonists.
