Tba R,na Maintain EAGLE nublish

The Blue Mountain Eagle, publish
ed at Canyon City, in recent issue
severely arraigns Governor Vests
policy of pardoning and paroling pris-
oners from the penitentiary. The
particular case which the Eagle cites
is that Of Charles L. Gentry, motor
ious cattle thief, who was convicted
and sent to prison through the efforts
of the Grant County Stock Growers
association, which paid $1,000 reward
for Gentry's arrest and conviction.
Without consulting the association.
West has granted parole to Gentry.
The Eagle remarks: SIN his efforts to
bring about a regeneration Of con-
viots we have nothing but words
OF encouragement, and when man,
although his sins be as scarlet deter
mines to turn his hack on his way of
crime and plant his feet firmly IN the
path that loads to useful citizenship
we would place no stumbling block
in his road. In this we concur with
the governor, but there is another
phase Of the matter In which we deem
that be has assumed too great a pre-
rogative. When courts convene
>pries are polled and conviction and
sentence follow z fair and impartial
trial and then the governor without
counsel, withouS advice, arbitrarily
aud on his own. sweet will sets to
naught the punitive part of law. he
has become ghater than all law,
greater than Ourts, juries. law and
the very inaitutions upon which
government rests. IL he has this
power then courts and trials and law
and order are superfluous. because our
governor might just as we'll aot in the
FIRST instance and save the farce OF ju-
dioisl Investigation.

MASTERS OF CHESS.
Some Of the Greatest BlindfoIded
Players of the Past.

Some Of the Greatest BiindfoIded
Players of the Past.
Playing at chess without seeing the
board is much older accomplishment
than is generally known even among
chess players. Buzecca, an italian, as
early as 1866 played three games at
once, looking at one board, but not at
the other two. His three competitors
were skilled In the game, but he won
two games and made draw Of the
third. Ruy Lopez, whose name has
been given to an opening; Manglolini,
Terone Medrano, Leonardo da Cults,
Paoll Boi, Saliva and others who lived
between the thirteenth and seven
teenth centuries were able to play the
game without seeing the board. Father
Sacchieri of Pavia early In the eight.
eenth century played three games at
once against three players without see-
ing any of the boards.
1t remained for Phlllidor, the great
est genius at chess known up to his
time, to play bllndfolded in England In
1888 against three Of the best players
then living, winning two games and
drawing the third, surprising his an
tagonists and the throng Of onlookers
by keeping up lively conversation all
the while. Phillldor's achievement as
to the number Of simultaneous games
has been far outdone by Paul Morphy,
Paulsen, Blackburne and several Of
their successors. But Phillidor lively
Trenchman that he was, still holds the
palm as n conversationalist and player
at the same time.
Phillidor was the assumed name OF
Francois Andre Danican, born at
Dreux in 1920. He was educated as a
court musician for Louis XIV. He COM
posed music to Dryden's "Alexander's
Feast" and to many operas, all long
since forgotten. Dunican's fame does

They Were Sold One by One, Yet the
Set Remained Intact.
An old curiosity dealer of Paris re-
Gently found a new snare for the eter-
nally guileless amateur. He put In his
window five dolls dressed In vaguely
medieval clothes. Collector No. came
in and asked to buy one Of them. The
dealer could not divide the lots, as they
were valuable set representing the
five senses. After long persuasion the
amateur at last carried one off at a
very long price.
Collector No. 2 followed. Could he
have one Of the dolls? "Out Of the
question, sir; most valuable set, rep
resenting the four seasons" After
more long persuasion and at a still
longer price one Of the dolls was sold.
When amateur No. 3 called the three
dolls were the three graces, a most
valuable set, which could not be di-
vided. By offering an enormous sum
he carried off one of them.
Amateur No. 4 called and wanted to
buy one Of the two dolls. What was
monsieur actually proposing? The two
dolls were Adam and Eve, sculptured
and dressed by some forgotten medic
val artist. The pair could not possibly
be parted. The collector eventually
carried off Adam for. a gigantic sum.
Amateurs N@f5 called and asked: "How
much.fdr that curio? Evidently an odd
na,of set"
"An odd one Of a set!'' screamed the
dealer. 1T Is unique piece. Does
