From the New York Herald.)


very interesting dog. which once be-
longed to the late General Gordon, of the
English army. better known as Chinese
Gordon" is being kept at the Gordon Boys
Orphanage at Dover. England. 1t is the
property of Major Sell, of the King
regiment who says regarding it: THE
dogs name is Wang. When General Cor
don was recalled from China TO go to
Khartoum about fourteen years ago, he
brought three of the rare black Chow
puppies back with him, and when he ar
rived at Gibraltar he gave Wang to Sir.
John Aides daughter. Sir John was an
old friend of General Gordon, and was then
commanding at Gibraltar. Wang remain
ed in the possession of this lady until her
husband, who is in the royal artillery, got
a staff appointment in London, when he
gave the old dog to me. The other two
puppies are believed to be dead, SO that
Wang is the only remaining one that Gen
eral Gordon owned. Wang is very deaf
and lame 1t is strange he should have
come to the Dover Gordon boys after all
these years"
Very nearly as interesting as Wang is
the Killed boy who acts as his keeper
Robert Robinson. Three years ago Roberts S
father turned the starving lad out of doors
at Crewe, England. The little fellow
tramped from place to place. living as he
could. Returning to Crewe he found that
his mother was dead and the home that
he had been driven from broken up.
Tramping again, he eventually got to Lon
don, and there a constable found him, a
mere bundle of rags and bones asleep
at the foot of the Gordon statue in Trafal-
gar Square. He was eventually taken to
the Gordon Boys Home, and as Wang's
keeper is one Of that institutions most
honored inmates.

wAGE-EARNERs' GRIEVANCES
Factory Inspector Campbell Talks
of SweatshOps

Factory Inspector James Campbell, of
Pennsylvania, was before the Industrial
Commission this morning and told the
members his impression of sweatshops
company truck stores, and wage earners
grievances.
Despite the enactment of laws aimed at
company truck stores. the evil exists in
Pennsylvania today, he said, the concerns
being conducted as a rule by relatives OF
the owners of the mines and factories. The
men who refuse to deal with these stores
which are generally run under the name of
the union supply company do not keep
their places very long as a general thing
mo class of men in the world are as fire.
quently and continuously abused as the
miners of Pennsylvania" said Mr. Camp
bell.
According to the last report gathered by
his department the factories of the State
employed 81, ,946 hands. Mr.. Campbell
stated that wages in the glass business are
better now than at any other time. Be-
fore the glass workers were organized they
never won a strike. Now they never lose
one.
Mr.. Campbell dwelt at length on the
sweatshops of Philadelphia and Pittsburg
and said he did not believe it possible to
enact laws that would eradicate the evil.
AS long as immigration continues and as
long as one man will work cheaper than
another sweatshops will continue to exist

BRILLIANT BOY CHESS PLAYER
Sixtcen-N Youth Beats the

From the Philadelphia Inquirer

From the Philadelphia Inquirer)
When boy of sixteen years plays chess
with a master of the game, even with a
heavy handicap allowance he does we'll If
that boy plays against Champion Harry y.
Pillsbury with even the queen handicap
and wins his game he is entitled to credit
as promising young player. This latter
is just what Chicago boy has done
Harry Hammersfahr, lad of sixteen who
lives at 369 Division Street. Chicago. who
has been playing the game at hcIae and
elsewhere since he was ten years old.
played the champion at the Chicago Chess
and Checker Club rooms and won.
Young Hammersfahr is no prodigy; he
is Just a wholesome. hearty boy with a stu
dious bent. He has good teacher in the
science and trickery of the game in his
father who has been devoree of the game
for many years. The boy himself is more
proud Of the fact that he played with the
champion than that he should have won.
The game cannot be called a very brilliant
one on either side, judging from the re-
ports of those who Sd it. but the lad. in
spite of several early mistakes, saw the at
tempt Of the master TO force draw,
avoided il neatly, and compelled Mr.. Pills
bury 10 resign.
Pillsbury allowed the boy the queen. the
most valuable piece in the chess game. The
performance of the boy cannot be called
mediocre in any respect, for Pillsbury won
from several noted club members under
the same handicap. These noted players
made none of the mistakes which marred
the boys early moves, but they were not
able to rally as he did. He not only atoned
for the errors, but escaped pitfall set for
him which would have resulted in a stale
mate.
The lad was nervous in the beginning,
for he realized how formidable an opponent
he was matched against. Sheer nervousness
caused his mistakes. but. as the work pro-
gressed. he seemed 10 gain courage and
made a series of really brilliant moves
when the game looked bit doubtful. But
the master was able 10 stand him off and
cut down his forces so that at the end it
was knight against pawn in the boys IA
vor The boy could not do what is called
trading off and have the champion defeated
in one move, so the resignation followed, of
course.
Pillsbury, was much pleased with the
youngsters work. and is of the opinion
that, with care and study he will become
a formidable player opposed to anybody.

COMMISSIONERS REFUSE.
VIII Not Close an Alley That Prom
iSes to he Useful.

The District Commissioners do not agree
with Samuel E. Wheatley. who seems TO
think that the alley running southeast
from Rhode Island Avenue and bordering
the northeastern edge of the ground at the
corner of Rhode Island Avenue and Sew
enth Street, should be closed. Adverse ac-
ton was accordingly taken by them today
on the application filed by him for clos
ing the byway.
1t is pointed out by the District Engineer
Commissioner that the alley will be of al
most indispensable use when the new
manual training school has been erected
Considerable heavy machinery will have 10
be installed in the machine shops of the
school and there will always be hauling of
heavy materials, molding, and patterns
and iron AS closing the alley would sim
ply cause II TO revert to the original own
er or owners. the District would in no
way be the gamer.
The Commissioners decided TO deny the
request of Mr.. Wheatley on the ground that
the alley in question would be very nee
essary for the use of the training school
