Captain Mackenzie Gives n brilliant
Exhibition of SkiIl.

CAPTAIN Mckenzie closed bis visit TO the
Richmond Chess Club last night with u
series OF brilliant games played against
eleven contestants.
AS heretofore he made wide swath In the
ranks Of his opponents.
His ready play is a marvel.
Passing rapidly from board to board he
makes a quick circuit OF the players and
gives each limited time for considering the
move, while he appears TO attack OF defend
without a moments delay.
The players say that they would make bet
ter scores II Captain Mackenzie would give
more time for reflection, but II goes without
the saving that the champion would rarely
lose a game II he took few minutes survey
Of the board before he made his move.
Altogether, the play Of the past two days
establishes the fact that the home players
have merit, and the score sgainst the cham
piou has been quite creditable.
PLAY began last night al s O'Clock and the
last move OF the eleventh player something
over two hours later. a number OF the
games were slOutly contested, but the Cap
tain was in fine form and bis play WAS
splendid. His high reputation stands 10 the
way OF tie best performances OF amateurs.
Captain Mackenzie will leave for New
York via Norfolk this evening. lie carries
with him tbe best wishes Of all who had the
pleasure OF meeting him over the chess
hoard.

weather continues cool and cloudy with oc-

A curious story OF the flood comes from
Hanover county. A tramp crossed Little
river on the Chesapeake and Ohio railway
bridge, which was nearly submerged at that
time. After going q short distance between

that the bridge there WAS gone. lie turned

that the country between the streams was
