INVENTOR OF CHESS
STUMPED A PRINCE.
He Asked a Small Reward for
Giving the Game to the World,
But It Couldn't Be Paid.

An Arabian author, Al sephadl, relates
this curious anecdote. which Is repro
duced in "Folles of Science:
A mathematician named Sessu, tho son
OF Dahar, the subject Of an Indian prince.
having invented the. game Of chess. his
sovereign was highly pleased with tho
invention, and, Wishing to confer on him.
some reward worthy, OF his magnilicence,
desired him to ask whatever he thought
proper assuring him that 1t would be
granted The mathematician, however,
asked for only q grain Of wheat for tho
first square Of the chess board, two for
the second. four for the third, and SO on
to the last, or slxty-fourth. The prince
at first was almost ncensad at this
demand, conceiving that 1t was ll-suted
to his liberalty. BY the advice of his
court.ers, however, he ordered his vzler
to comply with sessa's request. but tho
minister was much astonished when
having caused the quantity of wheat
necessary to fulfill the princes order to
be calculated, he found that all the grain
in the royal grnnares. and even all that
in those OF his subjects and IN all Asia
would not be sufficient
He, therefore, informed the prince, who
sent for the mathematician and candidly
acknowledged that he was not rich
enough to be able to comply with his
demand the lIlSeHuily VI WH'S' oStp''eH-
ed him still moro than the game he
had Invented.
It will be found by calculation that tho
sixty-fourth term OF the double progress
sion, beginning with unity, Is 9,223,372, G36,-
s54,775, sos, and the sum of all tho terms
of this double progression, beginning with
unity, may he obtained by doubling the
last term and subtractng the first from
the sum. The number. therefore, OF the
grains of wheat required to satisfy
Sessa's demand will be ls446.744,o7SM 9,-
651, 6l5.
Now, If q pint contains o,2l6 grains of
wheat gallon will contain 7S,7$, and
a bushel (eight gallons) will contain 5S9,-
7S4 dividing the number OF grains by
this quantity we get 3l,2N,9s7 412,295 for
the number OF bushels necessary to dis
charge tho promise of the Indian prince.
And IL we suppose that ono acre OF land
il capable of producing In one year thirty
bushels of wheat, II would require 1,042.-
4o9, ,743 acres, which is more than eight
times the entire surface Of the globe, for
