The New York Clipper (April 1903)

158 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER. April n seated together In the train wblch wu car- rying them from a Weatern city. The two beautiful actresses were deeply annoyed by the profanity of one of the two men who were occupying the seat In front of them. At last Wis Mannerlng said to Mln Rlcard In audible tones, which were heard by one of the offenders: "Isn't It dreadful to think that we hare to listen to such profanity I" "Indeed It Is," answered Miss Rlcard, em- phatically. The next moment they beard one of the men swearing fiercely at the other. Among the sentences which tbey caught was: "Yon blankety blank Idiot,—don't yon know better than to annoy ladles by your blankety blank language I"—only blankety wai not tbe eiact word used.

This annual scholarly "feat of arms" Cais- son, Cambridge and Oxford, Eng., vs. our Columbia, Harvard, Princeton and Yale uni- versities, came off on March 27-8. Tbe Ameri- can boys were under the wing of the gen- erous BoBton Athletic Association. The match was so keenly snd closely contested that at the ca'l of time two games were still unfinished, and laid before Mr. Pillsbury for adjudication. Tbe one between Messrs. Richardson (Princeton) and Roome (Ox- ford) Mr. Pillsbury promptly awarded to tbe American, bringing the score to 2V4 each. Tbe other game, Bridgman (Har- vard) vs. Brown (Cambridge), presented a more difficult question. Finally, word came that a decision would be cabled on Monday, March 80. This is tbe first match of the five that has not been finished within the statutory two days. The backward state of tbe decision was not due to any tardiness In transmission, but to the stubbornness of tbe contests. This will be more perfectly understood wben we note that five of the games ran to 42, 60. 50, 40 and 63 moves, successively. The Oxonian, Davidson, on board 6, wound up Mr, Sawln (Yale) In 20.. with the 3.. PtoQR.'l, folowed by 4.. B to B 4 defence to tbe Buy Lopes, and got the beet of a not very steady opening The final game, between Bridgman (Harvard) and Brown (Cambridge) was ad- judicated by Mr. Pillsbury In favor of tue latter, which made the British players vic- tors by a score of 3 Vj to 2 Mj.

In Iowa The Ouihrian, of Guthrie Centre, has become the official organ of the vigor- ous State chess association, and Bro. L'p- degraff tins associated Lee Edwards with blm as game editor. Nor la that all. The management has made a special rate of sixty cents a year for the paper to all members of tbe State chess association. There! If that doesn't kindle the enthusiasm of the local and neighboring players, to the benefit of tbe game and lis organ, the Westerners are not of the practical turn we have taken them to be. Still more. The I. C. A. la the first wo have heard of to Issue traveling cards to Its members as an accredited introduction to any chess circles they may visit while awny from home. The other paper to open a chess column as an organ of a State chess association Is The Kills Co. Mirror, of Whxaunchle. Texas. Around this new banner of Calssa, flung to the breeze by Bro. Mlddleton, Inventor of the counter-gambit which bears his name, members of tbe Texas Chess Association, with multitudes of eager recruits, are In- vited to rally, which they will surely do. In no State Is chess In a more rising and hopeful condition. BLACK (Herr Albln). Albin.

April 3 and 4 are the days, and 10 a. u. Is the hour here. Pills- bury and Marshall are both In It over the boards In London, as last year. Tbe mana- gers did not secure Mr. Phillips, and the eight to fill tho team are the veterans we all so well know. There Is renowed Interest In the fart that a new power, the great City of London C. C, Is now the manager of the English tenm, and announces Mr. Burn among those from whom the selection will l»e made. The nmntemr English champion, Mr. Mitchell, Is belter known than he was a year ago: and, on tbe whole. Is appears that the English managers have a more powerful list 1o draw from than ever before. So our knights have that warrtornrlde—"foemen worthy of their steel." The bravest of battling and tho utmost harmony and good feeling, as among old and tried antagonists, may confidently be anticipated. Victory will be a matter of honorable pride; defeat should not entnll undue depression. 8..f-QKtS D..QXKI 10., KtXB n..B-in 12..Kt-B 8 Usroczy. 13..QtoKS I4..QR-Qsq 16..P-KB4 I6..P-K6 17..Kt-K4(l) 18..KtX~ Wolf.

The studious reader will draw a diagram here to facilitate an examination of this re- markable situation. Bro. Hoffer, In "Review of the Round" (fith Mar. 7). writes the following Inter- esting note: "It is curious how difficult It Is to predict whether a round will be Inter- esting or not. It Is quite accidental, In- dependent of the pairing. Today, for In- stance, not much liveliness was expected, bat all the games turned out remarkably pretty, full of attractive situations, and two of them, Mleses vs. Albln, and especially Marociy vs. Wolf, valuable to the t heory." * ^» — N.

A young and skillful exponent of the art of conjuring, was born In San Francisco on July 14, 18T8, and studied magic under Prof. Henry, an old retired necromancer. Mr. Keane then started out as a lyceum enter- tainer In this line of work, and about two years ago he left his native city for the East, and succeeded In placing his act be- fore tbe managers here, with speedy and bappy results, for his engagements since then have been In the best class of theatres. His act Is an excellent one, extraordinary cleverness being shown In hfa manipulation of cords and billiard balls. Richard Pltrot, the well known booking agent, was very much Impressed by Mr. Keane's perform- ance, and is now arranging time for him In Europe. <« » Notes from nloomlngton, III: Some time this Summer the American Amusement Asso- ciation, with headquarters In Bloomlngton, will be incorporated. The incorporators are Messrs. Con R. Mueller, the well known amusement man of Bloomlngton; Bert Car- roll, of Chicago, and Homer Crawford, of Kansas City. It Is the Intention of these gentlemen to place eight or ten companies on tbe road, among which will be one or two "L'ncle Tom's Cabin" aggregations, a couple of dramatic companies, In repertory, a vaudeville aggregation, and various other companies of entertainers. Tbe players will be assembled and drilled In this city, and will then cover tbe middle West Checker*. Summer Parts, fit To Correspondent*. Db. ScHAirsB.—All right now. J. di Lima. —Thank you. W.

He writes us that he did not play any checkers In Chicago, but that he had the pleasure of meeting Hefter and Denvlr. He says that In Denver City they have sand atorms almost every afternoon. He wishes to De remembered to all the New York players, and says that If he can get a good game on he will send It to The Cuppzb. .... .The noted analyst, James Tonar, of Newcastle, England, died recently. Mr. Tonar was known the world over as an analyst of ex- ceptional brilliancy and accuracy. In the early sixties he engaged in several matches, in which he was successful. In 1869 he established The Draught Boari, and with him were assodsted a number of clever writers, prominent among them being J. Uediey, of Leeds; the late John Robertson, of Berwick, and, we think, Frank Dunne. The magailne, in such able handB, opened a new era for the game, and Imparted to It a tone It previously lacked The Call says George Jewltt, of Hull, and J. C Rich- mond, of Maraden, will enter the lifts against the pick of the Scottish players In the forthcoming International tourna- ment. Both are said to be In fine fettle, end if they can find It convenient to enter, will greatly strengthen tbe English team.... A giant checker board, said to be the largest ever seen In London, Is attracting attention at the City News Room, of that city. It Is used for lecturing purpoBea, and la made to bang on the wall. The pieces, which are green and red, are hooked on, and can be moved to any position. An enthusiast describes it as the finest ever constructed. It Is with deep regret that we note the death of J. B. Ferguson, tbe first checker editor of The PltUbvrg (Pa.) Die- patch. Mr. Ferguson, who was killed at New Castle, Pa., was a native of Perthshire, Scotland, and about fifty years old at his death.

Lennon Co.: We closed In Montevldlo, Minn., March 23, after a very successful season of forty weeks. While Mr. Lennon was unfortunate In hav- ing Buffered a railroad wreck. It Is bard to keep n good man down. We have toured three States, and bave showed to good busi- ness, ' especially the last three months lu tbe Dakotas. Blanch Plunkltt has been In- valuable in conducting and continuing a suc- cessful tour, and while we have had very little use for the 8. R. O. sign, and have broken but few records, we have held our heads above water most of the time. At Madison, S. D., we followed a record smashing re- pertory company the week after, and shewed to more money In three nights than they did In one week. The members of the company will go to their several homes as follows: Mr. Lennon, to hla home In Qulncy, Mich., and will open his fair dates, commencing at Kmmetsburg, la., in August Blanch Plnn- kett will go to her homo In Montlcello, la., for a short visit, then Join Mr. Lennon for next season ; John Eae and wife and the Weston children go to Sioux Falls, 8.
