ten games in Washington. and IN Mont
real added to his record by meeting
twelve opponents. In one of his exhibit
lions In the West last winter. he play

twenty, played Saturday afternoon and
evening. crowns all of his achievements
or those of any other expert.
The most remarkable feature of blind
fold chess is that the experts state that
they do not know just how they do it.
A French Journalist afew years ago adj
dressed letters to all the European blind
fold players, asking them If they form
ed pictures of the boards and chessmen
in their minds. and saw these mental
images during the progress of the games.
The majority of answers were that they
did not know to a certainty that such
a process was followed. PiIlsbury denies
that he sees the images of the boards
and men, or forms mental pictures of
them; he says he just remembers the run
of each game by some popularity in the
opening and once getting that he can
bring up the whole position. The opin-
lon of the theorists is that the players
must form some image Of the games
though they are so fleetinggthat they
may not be entirely discernible.

BLINDFOLD CHESS,
PilIsbury's Recent Performance
A'vakens Interesting Incidents.

AA'SOuES Recent performance
A'vakens Interesting Incidents.
The recent performance of Pillsbury,
the Eastern chess champion at b!indfoId
play, has awakened quite a little inter
est among chess players generally His
playing of twenty games blindfolded in
Philadelphia last week is considered re-
markabIe
In the original method of bIindfoId
play, which was introduced in the last
century by Philidor. French champion,
the expert was actually blindfolded. but
was allowed to assist his memory by
touching the pieces. Philidor created
Juror by playing two games many times
by this method. Very few attempted the
feat and the number of blindfold per-
formers were very few in Europe UP to
the middle of the present century When
Paul Morphy contested eight games sue
cessful1y in Paris, in 1858, it created
profound sensation. both from the good
quality of the games and the strength
Of the men who were opposed to him
Morphy never attempted more than eight
games. Paulson played eight games
shortly after that time in New York
and later contested ten. BIackburne play
ed ten games simultaneously in Man
chester in 1862, he being then nineteen
years of age. 1t is said that Zukertort
played sixteen games simultaneously
without seeing the boards and men,
Steinitz played four games without sight
of boards and men in New York against
some of the best players of the Manhat-
tan Chess club, and at the same time
played hand at whist. Blackburne said
many times that he could play a dozen
games as easy as he could four, and Of
fered to play thirty games simultaneous
ly, provided the session could be arrang-
ed for two days. he to take up the
games where they were left off entirely
from memory on the second day: it was
never tried.
PElsbury commenced his blindfold play
Ing at the Boston Chess club in 1892
where he contested four games. In
1891 he showed his skill at the Brooklyn
Chess club by playing eight games

TWO DANGEROUS RIVALS

The champion has two most dangerous
rivals to face before the public will ac-
cord him unstinted recognition as the real
champion. One man he has received two
decisions over in>eontests that were far
from decisive, and the other he has sig
naliy and decisively defeated. The first
is Tom Sharkey, the second Bob Fitz-
simmons. Either OF the boxers named
has a chance to take away from Jefries
the title of heavyweight champion. JET
fries is probably fully aware of the fact
that either of the gladiators named would
not prove a pleasant task TO dispose Of
SO despite Billy Bradys bold and defiant
utterance, Jefrries will likely conclude
that there is nc reason why he should
meet men he has defeated. and will take
that years resi- BY so doing he Will
certainly lose all the prestige his victoria
have brought him. Supporters of the
game are not satisfied with his work.
They would like to see him win at least
one decisive battle-say with either Shar-
key or FttZsimmons. VIII he do 1t?

by John Barnes team, Barnes CHALLENGED
the Chicagos for another game to be
played at Minneapolis Monday. And It
was Tuckerman and Billy Earle were
the St Paul battery. and Baldwin pitched
for Chicago. Neither side scored for four
innings, but in the fifth Fred Pfeffer
crossed the plate with the winning run.
The later years Of the Chicago club uu-
der his management are rehearsed. and
then he tells the story of how he was
frozen out of the game by Jim Hart I'M
dergOing great humiliations. and finally.
he says. with bitterness:
After Tom Burns. my old third base
man, had been brought on from Spring
field, Mass, to serve as a figure head for
the clubs president. was advised by Mr.
SpaldinS to resign, which / refused to do.
preferring to take my medicine like Il
man, bitter as the dose might be Mr.
Burns that spring took up the relns that
had been taken out Of my hands. and
how we'll ne succeeded with the able 90
assistance of President Hart Is now a.
matter of history"
Arson finishes his book:
What l may conclude to do I'm the flu
ture it Is hard to say. and If I return to
my first love-baseball-it will not be az
a player. but wherever / may be, or
whatever | may do. I shall still strive to
win the approval and good will of my
friends-God bless them"

BEWARE OF THE wRESTLERS.
Bech-O.son has been here month trying
! to excite interest In his wrestling match
with Farmer Burns and ]. ]. Rooney, but
the public will have little to do with such
sport, and the attendance at the contest
| last night was very small.
The affair" had such a ffshy look that
Manager Houseman, of the TattersalI
club, refused to handle it on a very lib
eraI percentage, and a lot of would-be
promoters attempted to run the show
They Will not try again, as they are prob
ably shy a few dollars in settling for the
privilege of having their names attached
to the bills.
Rooney told me that he got guaran-

appearance of the match" and the sport

GOOD BOUTS AT STAR.

the Star theater, where the Fort Dear

returning to the block as a bookmaker,
which is his usual occupation during the
TURF season Essig has been secretary OF
the club, and is a popular sportsman, who
IS likely to succeed in giving some good
shows this summer.
For the show Friday evening the wind
up will be a siX-rouRd contest between
the two clever bantamS. Harry Harris
and Maurice Rauch. These boys are prob
ably the best of their class In the West,
ana l doubt if there are any at their
weight In the country who can beat either
of them. The contest Friday evening
therefore partakes of the nature of a
championship battle and will excite
great interest and attendance
Prof. Harry Gilmore, the veteran light
weight champion, has a benefit show at
TattersaTS Tuesday evening, and the
crowd will be one of the largest of the
season. for Gilmore is very popular in
this city. where he has a boxing school,
from which graduated such champions as
Tommy White, Eddie Santry, the Forbes
boys-Harry and Clarence-Bennie Yam

lot of other clever boxers
Gilmore has made up a programme Of

. SECRET LAID BARE

Corbett has exposed the weakness as
we'll as the power of the big boiermaker
who now holds the heavyweight cham
pionship title. Jeffries is certainly not a
great boxer, He is a marvel of strength,
and there 1t ends Powerful as is Tom
Sharkey. Corbett Friday night punished
Jeffries far more than did the sailor. The
persistent attacks of the former cham
pion-the pitiless jabbing that Jeffries
could not get away from-rnust have tried
him TO the limit. Sharkey beat him az the
carpet-cleaner beats his carpet. Corbett
added the keen punishment of the artist
who knows how to irrltate and sting as
well as to hurt-and there were times
during the battle in which 1t is safe to
assert that Jeffries would have liked to
have been anywhere else save in the ring
with Corbett. Corbett has fully demons
trated that Jeffries cannot hold the cham

Those who remember Jim Hall of ten

who faced one Seaman in a six-round

rently in good health and condition. But
his work IN the ring was farce He
was slow and disposed to hippodrorne
and the crowd Kissed until the boxer
seemed to be ashamed of himself. 1t
was the poorest exhibition of boxing ever
seen in Chicago and Hall will never be
given another chance here. Quite a diff
