How DANIEL DREW PAID FEE
The Grocer's Journal (78 Cedar street.
New York; relates: "Daniel Drew COM
menced his life - drover. He has en-
lowed theological seminary. But
withal, he has more than once been sus-
peoted Of being . sharp old fox, as they
call him in the street. An anecdote
about him is now going the rounds, and is
90 good that We give it to our readers
without endorsing its verscity. 1t is re-
lated that once u lawyer acted az referee
in case wherein Daniel was interested.
The referee gave an opinion very favorable
to Drew, and charged him 81, 800. Dam
iel's face never moved. He paid the bill
and quietly emarked-sMr. if you
have no immediate use for this money it
might be very profitable if you should
invest it in such way. do not advise
You to invest; simply say that you
might make it very greatly to your advan-
tage.' The attorney, who supposed that
Mr.. Drew was pleased with the result and
satisfied with the rather exorbitant fee,
believing that Daniel proposed to do him
q good service, went directly and invested
the twenty-five hundred and thousand
besides as Daniel had suggested. In two
days he lost every cent. That is the way
he got even with him for overcharging"
