HACK ALMOST
NET his MATCH

Reports from London tell us that
George Hackenschmidt, the Russian
Lion, the great champion wrestler, has
come back to the scene of his former
triumphs, after victorious tour of
Australia and the United States, only
TO find himself opposed by new crop
OF wrestling experts anxious to defeat
him for the title OF champion. He
found this out the other day in con-
nection with an unexpected occurrence
ut one Of the music halls in London
where Hack is appearing just now
meeting all corners. The Russian Lion,
who is drawing large crowds, offers
$50 to any man who lasts fifteen min
utes with him in bout, under eitaher
catch as catch-can or Greco-Roman
rules and $1,000 to the man who can
defeat him. This alluring bait helps to
attract lot of opponents and almost
every time that Hackenschmidt goes
on the mat he has two or three ready
to go against him.
After disposing Of Prince Deco, OF
Dahomey, a colored wrestler and
weight litter, in minutes and 80 Soc
onds, Gus Remnant, finely built ath-
lete, weighing ABOUT 24i pounds, then
faced Hackenschmidt. Remnant is 4
clever man, but 1t was evident that he
was not in the best of condition, for be-
fore the contest had proceeded a min
ute Remnant was putting. But he was
not afraid in the least, and went after
the Russian for all he was worth.
Hackenschmidt tried to grl a waist
lock on his man with the evident in
tention OF tossing his opponent around
Remnant was too quick and fell on his
stomach. Hackenschmidt worked over
his man and had a good half-Nelson on
Remnant which the latter broke. Then
Remnant got to his feet and rushed al
Hackenschmidt. With a quick move
and excellent judgment Remnant caught
Hackenschmidt around the waist. The
Russian went to the mat. Remnant mus
tering all his strength. fairly brought
Hackenschmidt in the air and threw
h'h W thc Nuip PCT. IL was uOnc oo
quickly that the crowd could not un-
derstand how 1t all happened.
Hackenschmidt was furious and
rushed Remnant to the end OF the stage.
The latter lifted the Russian twice in
succession, sending his man to tho
floor with thud. BY this time tho
spectators began to realize that Hack
enschmidt had at last man his equal
In strength, and cheered. They urged
him to beat Hack, and although he
made a gallant endeavor, Remnants
condition told and he Immediately act
ed on the defensive. Hackenschmidt
then applied full Nelson and Remnant
weakened under the pressure. Rem
mart was then thrown in z minutes
and 40 seconds. This was the first
time In Hackenschmidt's career as a
professional that he had been handled
so roughly, and after the match Hack
scnmidt congratulated Remnant. He
told him that with training and expe-
rience he might develop into one OF the
best grapplers in the business.

men and Brither Scots" running over
all Scottish worthless from Sir William
recollections to tell us of the voyage
Minister, with anecdotes Of Lord Brax-
field and others.
AS has been said above, Stevenson s
kindness of heart and chivalry to the
weak would lead him to an excessive
degree to transfer the back-slidings OF
the Polynesians from their own Shout
ders to those of a broader civiliza-
ton; consequently he accepted readily
the native in preference to the Euro
pean version OF facts; a habit which
led him to accept In all good faith the
travellers tale" OF the woman OF Ha-
wall, who was reported to have swum
with her husband, dare not say how
many miles, and came ashore at last
with his dead body in her arms"
Whereas the recorded facts of the real
incident, which occurred in the foun-
dering OF the Keola off Kohala Point
w 'ioy w. iofO, are IHut Mamie OF
Lahaina and his wife swan together,
each with bucket for support, till
his strength failed; she then took his
arms round her neck, holding them
with one hand and swimming with the
other. till she found he was dead, when
she was obliged to let him go to save
her own life.
There are other good stories illus
tratiye OF this tendency in Stevenson.
Mr.. Johnstone's book may truly be
described as one that will be OF lasting
value to students of Stevenson; he de-
scribes circumstances within his own
observation, with the advantage Of To-
cal knowledge, with impartiality and
sense OF proportion, and his eulogy
never degenerates into idolatry; almost
every page Is full Of information and
discriminating criticism. and his view
OF Stevenson's work and personality
taken as whole, is a clear-sighted and
reasonable one.

had made the comment that many

less often wholly in vain than we
thought who watched his errantry."
On another occasion his dislike Of lip
service showed itself. Captain Otis,
the skipper of the yacht, had read lit
tie Of Stevenson beyond Treasure Is
land, and daily dreaded the fact being
exposed; In due course he was heckled
by the novelist's aged mother, whom
he answered as follows:
my dear madam, have already told
you that have read but one of your
sons books, and since you have urged
me to express an opinion, / will say
that, from the casual examination 1
have given some Of the others, do not
think would care to read them"
The mother, as in maternal duty
bound, was highly offended; but Stew
enson, who had overheard the speech,
told the skipper that he had raised
himself in his estimation: III you had
told her that You had read them all,
and liked them, as most people tell
me, whether or not, would be as frank
