a peasant, headed an instruction Of
SerHians against the Turk, and was

This has been an exciting match from
the beginning, and probably has crea
ted more interest throughout the coun.
try than any match that Was ever
played. Priests hard luck seemed to
hang to him in last evenings play. AT
the 34th game Priest had a winning
position. but by not moving the right
piece, he lost the game TO Barker. A
good series of fine games have been
played with visiting spectators from
New York, New Jersey, Connecticut
and Delaware. The match will be re-
sumed this afternoon aud evening with
revived interest. To win a game now
from Barker, playing solely on the de-
fensive, is regarded rs herculean task
If not an impossibility, but Priest says
he IN determined to day and this even
ing 10 try ard drive Barker for win,
or in other words he is going to play an
irregular opening, and make Barker
+" buck his brain against brain. The
score now stands

John Sidney Jones, well known
and noted character in Philadelphia
died a few days since in the Pennsyl.
vania Lunatic Asylum at Harrisburg,
where he had been for some time. He
was born in Philadelphia in 1911, and
in his youth was thrifty and industri.
GUS. He was one Of the first to engage
in the manufacture of carpets in Phila-
delphia, and Notwithstanding his sin
gula vagaries, accumulated fortune,
and for many years kept one of the
argest carpet stores in that city, OIL
Second street. When the rebellion
br oke out, he was Cne of the most
ardent Union men in the city. and con.
tributed toward the fitting out of several
regiments for service.
The day after the news was received
OF the surrender of Fort Sumter, and
when an excited mob was parading The
streets of Philadelphia, compelling all
who were in the least suspected of fav-
oring the secessionists to display the
stars and stripes, Mr.. Jones had the
old flag flying on the roof of his build.
ing, when some practical joker reached
the roof through a building in the same
row, and replaced it with Palmetto
flag.
AS the crowd came along Second
street they caught sight of South Caro-
lina's emblem, end instantly rush
was made for his store. Mr.. Jones'.
who was ignorant of the cau.e OF the
demonstration, asked what was wan ted
when several in the party answered
" that flag must comH down. He,
mistaking them for Southern sympa
thlzers, and thinking they meant the
Union flag, replied that h. would shed
his last drop Of blood before thai nag
should be struck.
Matters were becoming serious, and
it is probable the crowd would have
gutted the place had not some one iu-
form ed Mr.. Jones what kind of flag
was floating on his house. IL il almost
needless to say that IL was promptly
taken down, and replaced with one
more in accordance with the wishes of
the people.
During the war he was made Briga
dier General of the militia, but he never
served. After the war closed, he origi-
mated new religions sect, known as

wife and followers, composed mostly of
oystermen, spent most of their time
