An interesting whist event takes place
this evening. Capt. Whelan Of the Balti-
more team will lead eight players from
that city In a team match to be played In
the Capital Bicycle Club rooms. The visit
ing team Is understood to be a strong one.
The Capital Bicycle Club team will be com.
posed, so far as the first four are concern
ed. of Wooten. Lowe. Bingham and Bar
rick. as a matter Of course. Probably the
second four will be Fogg. Quackenbush,
Stafford and Harlan. DR.. Walls will not
rlay with the Baltimore people, on account
of prior engagements at the Washington
Chess Club.
During the past week the Capital Bicycle
Club has entertained several visiting whist
players among them being Messrs. Fahne-
stock and Smith of Philadelphia: Hill of the
Hamilton Club and Duvall of Baltimore

Of blindfold playing Of checkers was given
on Thursday evening last by Messrs. Mum
dele and McHardy. The games contested
were a part of the match Of six games to
be played as agreed between these players
without sight Of board or men. The visit.
ing checker players pronounced II a most
extraordinary performance. The moves
were called out quickly and accurately,
each player being represented at the board
by a second who reproduced and recorded
the move. -Four games were played in this
manner, McHardy winning one. three games
being drawn. AS Mundelle was one game
ahead, this ties the score. 1t Is noted that
these players now stand even, SO far an
public contests are concerned, not only In
blindfold play, but In their match over the
board

interesting changes have occurred during
the week. The most notable of these was
Capt. O'Farrelrs second victory over Mr..
Wright, In q game full Of fine situations

The battle was watched with close atten-

board. On Wednesday night Mr. Wright
achieved an easy victory over Mr.. +. B.
Walker In a queens pawn opening; Mr..
Geddes won from Mr.. Chase, and Mr.. Ham

win In his game with Mr.. Briggs. who
played excellently. The situation in the
championship tournament now is:
