I'm CileSS Game,

The game of chess with living CHAR
actcrs was not played until Tuesday
night, owing to the bad weather, OF
Monday night. There was IL large an
dience present. At half past eignt
o'clock the orga3ist commenced playing
a march aud the characters, who were
arranged in the basement Of the skat-
ing rink, marched in the hall and form
ed themselves in a line ready TO do
battle On the stage. Miss Marion Buck
ly read a very appropriate essay ex>
~planatory Of the game Of chess, It's orS
igin. etc. Then came the tablaux, the
"Cballenge," which was very pretty.
The characters then formed in a line IN
regular order AMI marched from the
stage to the floor and took their posi-
tions on the chess board. Mr.. Harry
PLAYED the black and Capt. Hardy the
whites. After q hard fought battle of
a half hours length, the black side
were declared the ~victors. The char
acters .hen formed in a line and march,
ed back to the stage. Then came the
tableaux. the "Defeat," IN which the
defeated side yielded up their arms.
This closed the evenings entertainment,
The characters were all appropriately
costumed to represent kings, queens,
bishops, castles, knights aud pawns.
The costume s were all very pretty, and
everything passed off pleasantly. The
committee of ladies who had the mans
agement of the game, at whose head
WAS Mrs. Strickland, deserve credit
for the interest and zeal they mani
tested and for the nice style in which
everything was arranged. Gross pro-
ceeds were tw~entyefour dollars and
sixty cents.
