The late speaker OF the national
house OF representatives. David y.
Henderson. spent. most Of his life On
the battlefield and In congress. but .
portion OF It was devoted to q willing
ness to practice law.
His early professional experiences
were not materially different from
those OF most young lawyers.
Finally he was retained In an estate
case which involved large interests.
The future speaker was mighty hard
up, and he was seriously thinking Of
asking the heirs to pay his bill. which
he had never rendered. He was medi-
tatinE whether to charge them $500
or 5000, when one Of the heirs. repre-
senting them all. stepped briskly into
his office. and, taking out q roll Of
e-hundred-dollar bills, said. "Mr.
Henderson, ! want to pay your bill"
and commenced laying down these
Ave. hundred dollar bills until he had
$4,000 before the astonished young
lawyer. Looking UP at Mr.. Hender-
son, the heir said. rs that enough?"
And the lawyer, with that self-posses-
sion which subsequently. made him
famous, calmly said. Peel off another

threw Hackenschmidt with the scissors hold. Referee Ed Miles declared the hold good and the Greek released his opponent. For about three minutes the defeated man was unable to rise, but pluckily re- covering himself, made a statement to the audience. He said:
 T have met a very good man, and I think that I have had square deal at the hands of Referee Miles. l will state, however, that the Greek handled me rath- CT roughly and strangled me in the last fall. ] understood when I left my home in Iowa that the match was to be mixed one, but on reaching this city had to accept the straight catch-as-catch-can style. I will however challenge the Greek for another match at my own style this time, that is the Graeco- Roman mixed with the catch-as-catch-can."
 MT. Hackenschmidt made the following statement after the match last night:
 ''The series was anybody's from the beginning to the end, but 1t is my honest opinion that I had the Greek bested in both wind and science. Mir Demetral is, however, very good man and is certainly one of the best have ever met. He beat me- but. 1t Is also my honest opinion that luck was against me in the final de- cision"
 Hackenschmidt's challenge was accepted by Demetral last night and the match will be pulled off next Tuesday evening at the Bijou theatre.
 Tn the preliminary, George c. Blanks and Seymour Lasker met in a series of catch-as-catch-c can falls, in which Blanks won the first two. in nineteen and eight minutes respectively, by half nelson holds.
 The side bet in the next Hackenschmidt and Demetral match will be $500.
