IT is asserted by men Of high pro-

needs stimulant nothing equals cup
Of fresh coffee. Those who desire "a

will find no better substitute for spirits
than strong, newly made coffee without

WHEN business pursuits fill the

CHECKER GOSSIP,

Mr.. Wyllie has been continuing his sue
| cessful career in Adelaide, having been Civ
ing exhibitions of his skill daily, the num-
Der of games played by him per diem having
averaged over 40. OF these he has won the
great majority, the best performance as yet
recorded against him being that of Mr.. John
Hogg, the Honorary Secretary of the Ade-'
ia1de Draughts Club, who scored four draws
In succession. Mr.. Wyllie says that the play
IN the Adelaide draughts circles is much
South Australia. The South AuStrdlfdn
chronicle reports that Mr.. w. Smith Is anXr
lous to play match of ten games with Mr..
Myll1e, asking for the handicap of being
allowed to count draws as wins; also that the
care players would like to have visit from
MI. Wyllie, and aremaking arrangements TO
SEND him an invitation. 1t would seem not
improbable, therefore, that Mr.. Wyllie's pro-
posed stay of about q month in South AUS
tralla may be extended by several weeks
AnstTaloSidp.
James Wyllie, champion of the world, and
Lne Would-be worlds champion, James T.
Keed, is left out of the list given in Chronicle
1etegrqph of June 15. These matches were
played when Mr.. Wyllie visited Pittsburg,
and 2O games were played in each match and
each resulted in q victory for the old man by
tne score OF to l. making in the 40 games
played Wyllie 6, Reed 2; drawn 80. It just
seems little strange how these two matches
shouid have been overlooked. A list OF
reeds victories and defeats would have
looked very insignificant along side of such
record as James Wyllie's.
Chlcago in the proposed match between
Reed and Barker, is acting very small in the
way Reed has to write as to the expense
question. 1t is known fact that the ex-
penses of the visiting player are not furnished
by Chicago, but outside, and that ample has
been allowed for that. Why, then, this dick.
er1ng? 1t would appear that Mr.. Reed had
difficulty in getting enough money raised to
make up the stakes; and when we take into
consideration that $500 was given over as the
forfeit money, Chicago men would only have
to raise the additional $500 And we believe
that is where the difficulty lies because Reed
is not afraid to play Barker, and if him
self, we are not afraid but he will defeat the
BOstonian again.
j. A. Kear, of Bristol, is getting it pretty
pion. We are sorry to see this, because of
MS magazines. To make them successful,
kear cannot afford to throw such as Gar
dener, Beattie, etc. overheard.

SHIP CANAL REPORT.
The Lake Marine Tonnage.

The Lake Marine Tonnage.
Following its statements that the entire
report of the Canal Commission (relative to
applicability of lake craft to canal seryice)
| is based on q consideration of the 'inferior''
vessels of the lakes, only; and that these in
feTior vessels (the "little" craft, that could
get through locks 30O'X44' in the clear with
10 feet of water on the sills) are "fast being
removed from the lake marine" the Rerie,D
asserts that ''the lakes own more steam YES
sells OF 1,500 to $500 tons than the combined
ownership of this class of vessels in all other
parts of the country. This class of fast steam
tonnage is used in the ore and coal trade of
the lakes. Canal vessels cannot compete for
the business" Why draw the line at $500
tons? There were in service on the lakes, in
1889, several screw steamers of over 1900
tons, gross" tonnage. There were three of
2 669 gross" TONS each. We will count in
everything over l,500 gross tons measure
ment, including five paddle steamers that
aH not ore carriers.
Yhe list for 1889 given in the Canal Com
mission report, shows l43 steamers; of 1,5O0
tons and upward, on the lakes exclusive of
Lake Champl&inl. but this list did not in
clude three passenger steamers, which may
properly be rated in this class. Including
these three vessels there were on the North
western lakes, in 1889, one hundred and forty

upward.
Three of these were composite vessels
