News comes from Spain that one OF
the most famous Spanish amateurs v.
Martinez de Carvajal, died at Granada,
spain. on March %. Next to the late
Celseo Golmayo. for years the honored
president OF the Havana Chess Club, and
the late DR.. Andres Clemente Vazquez,
for great many years Mexican Consul
at Havana, Senor Carvajal was known
as the strongest Spanish chess player.
lie was born at Almeria In 1s4o, and
AT the age OF 15 he went TO Madrid,
where he entered a high school. and IL
was here where he began playing chess.
Later on he became a member of a
small chess circle at Madrid. where
players like Golmayo, Nadelspino Do
minguez Abela and others were daily
visitors. aud ne found in this circle OF
enthusiastic chess players ample op-
portunities for developing his wonderful
talents for the game.
After finishing his studies he took a
place in a Government Office at Madrid.
which city he left for Havana in 1867,
residing in the Cuban metropolis until
1895. Together with his intimate friend
Golmdyo. le did much toward making
chess very popular at Havana. and as
matter Of course he played many games
with famous visiting masters, such as
Steinitz, Gunsberg. Tschigorln, Macken-
a very brilliant game with Steinitz.
After the American-Spanish war he
came 10 this city. being a daily visitor
at the Manhattan Chess Club. At the
special request OF Il, W. Ferguson. the
: .en tournament manager Of tho Man
haitian Chess Club. Carvajal played a

favorite pastime as II the season were

III a!-.s -. .;bi only does the cl'sb possess
w-u node and very substantial taSi-s

to harm the tables.
On being asked how he was able to
establish such a strong organization in
so short time President Kemp had this
to say: when some time ago the drec-
tors Of the now defunct Rice Chess Club
decided to move downtown to their old
headquarters in Second avenue most of
the members living uptown refused to
remain members OF the club and so the
new organization was established forth
with At first we experienced no end
OF difficulties In getting proper head
quarters, but we succeeded at last In
getting the present comfortab BILE quarters
and since we have occupied them new
members have been enrolled almost
daily
However. we have been very careful
in electing new members. We have not
allowed any no dues paying professional
element In our club. and while members
are permitted to play for small stakes
IL they so desire, most of the members
are averse to having among their midst
men who make IL their business to live
on chess exclusively. still more strict
are We OH the question OF the dues. We
are one and all OF the opinion that IL
a man cannot afford TO pay $3.50 dues
for quarter he is not desirable as a
member. A member in arrears with
his dues Is not permitted to play in the
clubs tournaments and neither Is he al
lowed to vote at regular meetings of the
club. | believe | am right in stating
that this Is the only chess club in ex-
istence in this city or elsewhere where
9s per cent. of the members are paying
their dues regularly, most Of them even
before they are asked to do so.
I'VE expect to continue this policy
right along and inasmuch as great
many chess players are living uptown
We have reason to believe that ere long
our club will become a very popular in
stitution in this city"

played in the second handicap tourna-

OLD SPANISH STAR DEAD

The young Hungarian master Boris
kostiCs has been making great strides
toward popularity in this country.
Wherever he has exhibited his skill as
blindfod player he caused quite q
STIR and many followers Of the game
In the cities he has visited so far con
slider him the most remarkable blind
fold expert they ever saw some even
going so far as to place him above the
late pillsbury. At Cleveland, Detroit
and Saginaw he was treated very hos
pitaby last week. The chess players in
those cities found kostics to be very
pleasant amiable and congenial fellow.
SO far kostics has not lost single
game in any of his exhibitions. The
worst that happened to him was to draw
one game out of seven or eight At
Detroit he won all the eight games he
played simultaneously at one seance.
He reports that he has received invita-
tions everywhere to repeat his tour in
the fall, when local chess clubs will be
able to make things liveler for him.
In Chicago he began his engagements
last Thursday evening. He will make
his way west to the coast. leaving the
Windy city on July 4 or >.
Following are two games played by
the Hungarian master Boris Kostics
when bindfolded at Rochester and

All about the din OF the city. the news

In the distance the bay and the river

On the mountain top a cottage red, the
piny woods behind.
Across the road the daisy fields where
wreaths and chains you twined;
You made believe you were a robber In a
far on distant land.
You were hiding meath the bushes with
your bold and fearless band.
You lay still TIL you were tired and aim ost

Then UP you raised your golden head Just
to take a peep.
Little baby brother was chasing a butter

And catching sight OF your tousled curls
cried: Il spy
And then you plucked red berries from
the bushes tborny and low,
You scratched your chubby little fists and

You waded along the lake shore, sailing
miniature barks OF sticks.
Wondrous indeed were your day dream.
at that golden age OF six
Out beneath the fir trees at the forests
shadowy rim.
You swayed to and fro on the broad rope

The usual theory being that three
queens will not win and that II must
he four queens or a full, most players
prefer TO leave the ace ard throw the
four dice again. because the odds are
ace in the next cast. and then there will
still be three dice left to get the third
ace and beat the kings. Throwing three
dice to get third queen is about an
even thing; but then there IL only one
throw with two dice left to get a fourth
