ularity several years ago. and people who
| called themselves refined card-playerS
/ predicted that the game would not last
| long and that its popularity would never
reign supreme. Now, the fallacy of

card game is 50 much INDUCED in? 1t
is played by everybody, from the baby
in arms to the giddy bald-head. 1t has

women on account Of the unlimited OPP
pOrtunities il affords them to get mad

suffering men that a woman can get
madden when she plays cinch than she
can at any other time, and feels at lib
erty to slam the cards down on the
board or scatter them in the air like a
| theatrical snowstorm. But for a good,
warm game an invitation is extended
for you to attend a one evenings ses-

ct the TeTre Haute house and further
| discussed the muddle regarding the pro-
! posed state chess tourney 70 be held in
this city. No conclusion was reached,
however. and the matter stlll remains

1.-THE different members Of the Terre
Haute chess club have been misquoted
I in some of the city papers regarding the
! international and state Journeys. Mr.
Jackson has so far kept his original
promise with the club for he never prom
ised us the international congress only
on the condition that twenty-siX play
/ ers enter before Jan. %. They failed to
come up and for that reason the match
was declared off. He seems to be per-
! fectly willing TO keep his promises with
J the club in regard TO the state tourney
| and the local club has deferred further
action pending future correspondence
with him in regard to the matter.-Terre
