began to talk about paWnA kings and
queens ! tumbled, I had never played
chess myself. but 7 knew the names of
the pieces and | had often read Of blind
fold exhibitions Of - or Il games al
once. l remember when l read these
accounts | had wondered how a player
found his way around among the Differ
ent tables and whether he had 70 hire
Z boy to guide him. Now ii began 70
clear up. These fellows we're playing
q game Of chess, both blndfold. The
blindfold' was simply a figure OF
speech and meant simply that they had
no board nor pieces before them. 4
watched them and tried to overheaT
what they were saying. Every few min
utes one OF them would say, queen
to kings knight check or pawn
takes knight-check discovered, ard
then the other one would gaze dream
ily out over the hills and answer;
King TO bishops square or something
ike that. So far as l could judge, the
older man seemed TO be getting the
better OF it, for a quiet smile played
over his face and once he remarked:
Harry, you are trying too much.
I've improved since you went away
That's all right vas the response,
pawn TO queens bishop g.
They kept at it for more than an
hour until suddenly the young man
leaned forward and looked ~intently at
a point about a foot in front Of his
nose. Pawn TO king s. he said, sharp
ly, and announce mate in four moves
That's Andersou's position against
Kieseritzki in the game, that's in al
the books
The elder man gazed thoughtfully
at him for a moment, and answered:
by Joye, Harry, / believe you ar,
right Then they put their heads TO
gether and went over the game care
fully, move by move. The third mar
paid the money over TO Harry and hi
opponent didn't say word. The!
played all the way down 10 the cit!
and split about even"
