RAIN DOESN'T HELP MUCH
Ground at Croton Too Parched,
Commissioner Thompson Says.

Commissioner Thompson Of the Depart
nent of Water Supply was rather pessimis-
tic yesterday in regard to the addition 10
the water supply in the Croton reservoirs
that might be counted upon as result OF
the rains in the last few days.
The rainfall in the watershed for the
twentyfour hours ended yesterday at 3
a. m. he estimated at about an inch. NOR
mally this would increase the supply IN the
reservoirs by about 3,13oOco,0oo gallons or
a supply Of about nine days. Owing 10 the
fact that the ground is parched CominlS-
sioner Thompson said only n ssial per
centage Of that amount would find its way
into the reservoirs.
No figures were available last night, out
week ago the amount Of stored water was
s5 o00.O 90 gallons, or about one-haIt OF
what il was ar the same time last year.

ssms Of tho Greatest slindfoIdsd
Players Of tho Past.
Playing ut chess without seeing the
board is a much older accomplishment
than is generally known even among
chess players. Buzecca. an Italian. as
early as 1866 played three games at
once, looking ut one board. but not at
the other two. His three competitors
were skilled in the game, but he won
two games and made a draw of the
third. Ruy Lopez. whose name has
been given to an opening; Mangiolini,
Terone Medrano. Leonardo da Cults,
Paoli 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.
It remained for Phillidor, the great
est genius at chess known up to his
time. to play blindfolded In England in
1888 against three of the best players
