ton Last of Week.

The third snowstorm of the winter of
1912-13 came to town early this morning.
1t was about the same kind of snowstorm
the other two have been-the sort that
once in while strikes the country down
along the gulf and makes things look
like feeble imitation Of winter for an
hour or so. The direst threat the weather
bureau could make for the next twenty
four hours, however, was for cloudy and
cold weather today, probably preceded
by snow flurries,'' and fair and contin-
ued cold for tomorrow.
The weekly weather bureau bulletin, is
sued today, predicts cold weather for the
entire country during the week, with
snow the latter part OF the week in the
northern part Of the country, and local
rains in the southern districts.
The temperature during the week, ac-
cording to the bulletin, will average be-
low the normal over practically all dis
tricts east Of the Rocky mountains. A
disturbance that struck the north Pacific
coast today will move inland, cross the
Rocky mountains tomorrow the middle
west Thursday night or Wednesday,, and
landing In this part Of the country
Thursday. This is the disturbance that
IS expected to bring the rain and snow.
according to the part Of the country-rain
for the south and snow for farther north.
Right on the heels Of this storm another
disturbance will appear in the far west
Friday OF this week, prevailing over the
middle west at the close Of the week.
Whether or not this second storm will lap
over into next week the chief OF the
weather bureau at this time refuses to
say.

duced and secured the passage of a reso-
luton. demanding that the Speaker of the

DIVIDE HONORS.
Baltimore and Washington Chess
Players in Close Matches.

Washington and Baltimore divided
honors last Saturday in. the annual inter-
city struggle and Southern Association
chess tourney. In the intercity team
match Washington was defeated by the
narrow margin Of one point, Washington
61a, Baltimore ~, but in the second an
nual tournament OF the Southern Chess
Association Norman T. Whitaker again
carried off first honors, Z. e. Adams won
second place and E. Knapp was tied for
third prize, but lost to J. y. Evans of
Baltimore in the play-off.
The intercity match was the seven
teenth annual event OF this kind held be-
tween the two cities as represented by
the Washington Chess and Whist Club
and the Baltimore Chess Association. The
team sent to Baltimore by the local club
this year was the second largest in the
history Of these contests. Usually seven
or eight men play on q side. The score
for the first seven boards last Saturday
was IA to 21a in favor Of Washington,
but no regret Is felt by members Of the
local club for having put such a large
team in the field, as the interest shown
by the lower board men in making the
trip more than compensates for the loss.

HOWARD UNIVERSITY
BEAT HAMPTON QU|NT
Annual Battle Saturday Came
the Local Boys Way,
"a to "a.

Hampton Normal and Industrial insti-
tute lost it's annual game of basket ball
10 Howard University at Hampton WASH
jngton's birthday by the score of 81 to
"a. The game was a battle royal, with
Howard's superior teamwork as the de-
Gliding factor. The first half ended a
tic OF IL points for each side, and at no
time during this half was either side
more than . points ahead. Howard got
away with two baskets early in the sec
ond half, which Hampton proceeded to
neutralize. and until the last few minutes
of play the score seesawed.
Howard's splendid passing and team
work had by this time worn out the home
Gagged a majority of their attempts with
but little opposition. Oliver and Capt
Gray were stars of the contest, although
the others played in superb form.
and especially was the shooting of Sykes
and Nixon spectacular in the latter part
of the game. For Hampton, Capt. John
son played well. as also did Gurnoe. who
unfortunately was hurt at the beginning
of the second half, but the team as an
entirety showed lack of experience and
condition that would have been theirs
Were more and harder games on their
schedule than Is now the case.
Nearly 1,5OO persons witnessed the con-
test and ii is the evidence of many that
no greater game has been seen since the
occasion of victory for Hampton over
Howard last year at Hampton by the
score of 10 to i6
