well as from the experience of all who have
wrestled heroically with the game of 10 1t
is evident that the numbers may be shut
fed and placed in box at hap-hazard and
vet fall in such relation to one another
that the real difficulty is at the outset al
ready overcome. But if the numbers are
placed in their proper order down to IL
and the next two are placed so as to read
Is, IA, the case is presented as it is imag-
ined by those who bold that the puzzle can
not be untangled. Then the simple prob.
lem is to get IA and Is in their places and
return all numbers that may be disturbed
in the process to their proper order 1eav-
ing finally only 49, IA and 10 on the last
line.
There is no evidence that any one has
ever done this without changing the
direction of the columns. But
if the numbers are put in their
proper order all the way to fifteen and
then, without being taken away from the
board, moved so as to present the greatest
possible confusion in their order, they can
be restored to the first condition, and the
doing of this seems 10 have solved the
problem. All those who believe they have
solved the problem have simply done this.
To be more explicit, if the square blocks
be used the puzzle can not be s lived, il
when all are in place except the last two
they be found reversed so as to read 15-14.
Itall depends on the way the numbers
happen to be put into the box in the first
place. But if the round blocks be used
after getting all the numbers in order ex
cept the last two, and these be found te
read 1914, instead of 14-15. the puzzle may
be solved by turning the box half around,
making what was previously the left hand
side the top and the top the right-hand
side, and then turning the blocks hal
around so as to put the figures in proper
position. Of course with the square block'
this can not be done. 1t is therefore helt
by the authorities that the use of the rount
block is inadmissable, therefore that thu
puzzle can not be solved if the last twt
numbers are found to be reversed. Al
ways remembering, of course, that the fig
ures must be in their proper positions, no
| upside down or on their sides.

ST. LOUIS, March As A. M.-About 200
members OF the Union Greenback Labor
party, better known as the Pomeroy Fac
ton, are in the city. They nold Conven-
ton to-day. Last evening a secret caucus,
at which about seventy were present, was
held with Hugo Pryor, of Ohio, in the chair.
1t was decided that l.. Chisley, of New
Hampshire, be chosen temporary Chairman
Of the Convention.
From the different views expressed by
the delegates, the meeting promises to be
a very inharmonious one.
Some of the members are in favor of ad-
iourning the Convention until the Ma
tional Greenback Convention meets in
Chicago, for the purpose of forming a
coalition with the Convention and unite
upon candidate.
This proposition is strongly objected to
by the majority, and any one attempting
to make such motion will be declared
out of order.
