WOMEN CHESS PLAYERS.
Why None Of Them IL Mentioned In
the Annals OF the Game.

Why None OF Them Is Mentioned In
the Annals OF the Game.
Ladies' chess clubs are being estab-
lished In various parts Of the country;
special inducements are held out for
their patronage by the promoters Of
national and internat ional tournaments,
and articles on the game appear regu-
larly In journals which cater specially
to them. Women have always played
and taken part in the game, though
probably never to the same extent as
now. It Is, therefore, remarkable that
Ia the whole of its enormous literature
there does not appear the name Of
any woman among the stars of the
first, second or third magnitude. One
may go through volume after volume
containing thousands Of games and not
find single one played by women
which any editor thought worthy Of a
permanent record.
When the question has been raised
before, it has been involved with that
of the intellectual superiority of one
sex over the other. Today the answer
to this would be totally inadequate
and inconsequential. There are men in
the front rank of players at the pres
ent moment who by no stretch Of the
magination or the term can be said to
occupy their position on account of ex-
ceptionally int llectual endowments
While the game always appeals to in
tellectual men and women, intellect is
not the only factor which makes the
great player.
a careful examination Of the games
Iof players whom the world recognizes
as great reveals the fact that the fac
ulties and qualities of concentration,
compr nsiyeness, impartiality and.
above Nall, a spark Of originality, are
to be found in comb ination and in va
rying degrees. The absence of these
qualities in woman explains why no
member Of the feminine sex has occu-
pied any high position as a chess
player. s. #.
There are many women who are ear
nest students of chess whose knowl-
edge Of the theory, principles and all
the Announcements Of the game is phe-
nomenal. But mere knowledge can
make nobody great. Taking results
good judgment is much superior to
/ knowledge imperfectly applied. Lon.

OLD TIME PUNISHMENTS.

Cold Water Baths Helped to Cure

To punish child in such way that

Two boys were herding swine in

some very important subject. for they
were earnest at it. IA man approa CHI

his own side of the pasture. The man
was angry and was shaking his hand

they should stay out until dark, and

down and ran to the road which led
to Rome. Ones name was Peter; the
other Michael Angelo Both were poor
boys They traniped and tramped, and
the first thing they did when they
reached Rome was to SO to church.
After they lad rested and prayed they
looked for employment. Peter received
employment as the cooks boy in some

find nothing to do. so he almost de-

He went to his friend Peter, who
gave him something to eat and at
night secretly let him into his room in

long time, Peter content to let his
friend do this and Michael content
also. Michael when in church had seen
some fine pictures. One which fasci-

cardinal had occasion to go to the

The cardinal. upon seeingt all the pic.

accurateness. He called Peter and
Michael upstairs and asked who had
drawn them Michael confessed he
had, but said he thought he could rub
them out again. The cardinal explain

A WONDERFUL CALENDAR.
The Four Ages From the Theosoph
ica1 Point OF View.

The Four Ages From the Theos0ph-
icaI Point OF View.
There is nothing more wonderful in
the chrono illogical and time keeping line
than the sTheosoph Calendar. Acc
cording to the Secret Doctrine From
the theosophical point Of view the four
ages are as follows: Sata yuga golden
age), ], TBS, 900 years; tresta yuga (sil-
yer age), 1,296, 900 years; dwapara
yuga copper age), 1854 900 years; kali
yuga iron age), 432, 900 years. The
total of these four ages makes one
maha yuga, or great age, Of 4 800 900
years One thousand maha yugas
make one kaIpa, or day of Brahma.
equal to 1000 times 1926, 600 years.
After the expiration Of that unthink-
able period Of time the night Of Brah-
INA, equal in duration to the length Of
the day, comes on, and the earth YAM
ishes from the plane OF existence
Three hundred and sixty days and
nights of Brahma make one year Of
Brahma, and 100 years Of Brahma
make the great kalpa, a period of BIZ
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS years. AFTER Wnlcn the
sun and the entire solar system plunge
into impenetrable night and every
thing on the collective plane is de-
stroyed. Then comes the period known
as the great night, which is equal in
length to the great kalpa. After the
great night has lifted Its sable mantle
q new solar system is formed and evo-
luton begins anew.
According to the doctrine Of the the
osophists, we are now living in the
kali yuga, the last Of the four ages.
and 1t began nearly 5000 years. ago,
with the death of Krishna, who died
3,102 years before our era began. The
first minor cycle Of kali yuga ended
in the years 1898. but we still have
something like 427, 900 before we ar.
rive at the end Of the present age
Kali yuga is also known to the the,
Iosophists as the black age. 1t is an
age of spiritual darkness, in which the
human race pays for the misdeeds
which are recorded against them in the
previous ages. 8 N

LEAVES SOUTH HA-
VEN UNDER CLOUD
EARL wESTG ATE DISAPPEARS
WITH FUNDS BELONGING
TO K. Q. T. M

The city of South Haven was shocked
Westgate, young business man there.
Upon investigation it was found that he
had in his possession quite sum of
money belonging to the X. o. T. M. which
he should have sent to the grand lodge.
Also moneys belonging to troop "a,
the athletic association and the fire de-
partment, in which societies ne had the
honor of being treasurer. The X. .. L.
NJ. are protected from loss, as Westgate
had given bonds in the sum OF $3.50.
The other societies, however, have no
protection. The South Haven Tribune
has the following to say OF him:
"Mr. Westgate was one of the most
popular young men in the city, and his
friends are still hopeful that he will re-
turn and clear himself of the cloud that
has fallen upon him. He has spent his
entire life in this city, and is graduate
of the city schools. His habits are ex-
emplary, and bis business affairs have
heretofore been wholly without taint.
"His standing in the community is
we'll shown by the fact that he has been
elected to position of honor and trust
in practically every organization OF
which he was a member.
His friends and acquaintance are
practically unanimous in their refusal to
believe him guilty of any Intentional
wrong doing. 1t is believed that he per-
mitted himself to fall into the practice
of mingling the funds under his control,
and that when he found himself in diff
culties he acted on the impulse Of the
moment and left the city, when his bet
ter judgment would have compelled him
to stay to make his explanations and
receive the temporary help which his
scores of friends would gladly have ex-
tended had they known the situation
