MOVE FAMOUS CHESS GAME
Club Where Leading French Players
Have Gathered Since 1851 Is Now
in New Quarters.

The Cafe de la Regence no longer
shelters the chess players whose tenn
pie it has been since 1854. The play
ers now make their headquarters at
the Cafe de universe, facing the The
alter Franchise, says New York Herald.
The Cafe de la Regence has been
in its present site in Rue Saint Hon.
ore since the early years of the second
empire. Before that it was at the
angle of the Palais Royal square,
where the Hotel du Louvre now is, and
in that locality it operated from 1881
until it was appropriated in 1854.
In the eighteenth century the Cafe
de la Regence was frequented by the
encyclopedias; Diderot, Grimm, Mar
montel, even Voltaire and later Robes
pierre were habitues of the place. 1t
is said that Napoleon gave chess
party in the old cafe. The cafe
charged by the hours for the use Of
it's chessboards and an extra charge
was made at the night games to pay
for the two candles which each pair
of players used. La Bourdonnais, ia
nous chessmaster of the Restoration,
played there and after him Alfred de
Musset, Saint-Amand, Rosenthal, de
Bornier and other celebrities of litera-
ture and chess.

Charm of Old San Antonio.

The charm of an old city lies chiefly
around the historic spots and buildings
in which the romance of its early his
tory is centered. Rarely. do we enter
a city that can boast of ancient edi-
fees and haloed ground the history of
which is known the country over. Rar-
er still is the community whose qaint
buildings, picturesque scenes and ro-
mantle atmosphere are it's main at
fractions, Turing thousands to it's gates
each year. Such, however, is the boast
of San Antonio, Tex, one of the quaint
est and most interesting cities in the
United States, says Architecture. No
where else may you find a greater APP
peal to the romantic and the pic
turesque and have such hospitable
welcome extended you; nowhere will
you find such a blending of the ancient
with the modern as in this delightful
city Of our own Southwest.

Vast Sum EIuded MORGAN,

In the mountains behind a Cuban
city, we are told, is still buried a great
amount Of treasure, hidden there $50
years ago, when news came of an i'm
pending attack by Sir Henry Morgan
the pirate honored by an English king
FOR his Onslaughts upon the Spaniards.
Most of the defenders were killed, and
the spells were never found. Morgan
was outwitted again at Panama, and at
the bottom of the harbor there lies
today, some have estimated, $30,000,-
300 worth Of gold and silver.
When he attacked Panama the treas
ure was hidden under the plankings Of
the ships at the wharves. The city
was captured before the vessels could
make their escape, but a long search
failed to unearth the spoils, so all the
craft were sunk in revenge by the
pirate and his men.

Source Of Loyalty.

There is loyalty which springs
from affection that we bear to our ma
tive soil. This we have as strong as
any people.
But it is not the soil alone, nor yet
the soil beneath our feet and the skies
over our heads, that constitute our
country.
ut is its freedom, equality, justice,
greatness and glory. Who among us
Is SO low as to be insensible of an in
terest in them? Four hundred thou
sand natives of other lands every
year voluntarily renounce their own
sovereigns and swear fealty to our
own. Who has ever known an Ameri-
can to transfer his allegiance perma-
nently to a foreign power?-William
Henry Seward.

PUINTS our WIRING NOTIONS
Harvard Professor corrects impress
sions of the Peoples of Historic
Lands of the East.

ITO speak of the pure old Egyptian
type is as incorrect as to assert that
the old type Of the Pharaohs is ex-
tinct today" said Prof. w. Max Null
Ter of Harvard in an address on "The
Origin of the Ancient Egyptians" in
the University Of Pennsylvania Arch
Biological museum. '"The admiXture
of negro blood, due to intermarriage
with slaves, was as popular in Bible
times as now"
The speaker corrected many popular
misconceptions about the historic
lands. "You apply the term Hamitic
to all blacks" he continued. "'Sons
of Ham to the discriminating scholar
of African conditions means white
people, not black. African residents
do not begin to call man black I'M
til he is chocolate or copper colored.
"The degrees range all the way
down to dull coal black. All shades
lighter than copper, such as the tan
Of the American mulatto, are called
white. The yellow girl is the compli-
mentary way to address or to paint
a lady over on the Nile.
"The handsomest people in the
world are the Abyssinians, slender,
high-browed, copper-hued-these peo-
pie who have reduced stealing to sci
ence and begging to a fine art. The
color of the healthy man is black
and greenish bronze hue, of shade
often seen in statues, but generally
believed not to be found in real life.
"These men, by the way, have the
must luxuriant hair IN the world, and
yet they never can grow more than
the scantiest, scrawniest boards"

ITO be strong for victory the ma
ton must let her children play" said
Charles Frederick Weller, associate
secretary of the Fairgrounds and Rec
reation Association of America. No
time nor money can be spared from
war-winning activities, but the win
ming of the war depends on man pow
er, and man power cannot be sustain
ed in any nation without health and
wholesomeness in the children.
Far worse than exhausting Ameri-
cas- financial capital would be the ex-
haustion Of child life, which Is man.
power capital.
England and France began as the
United States has been tempted to be-
gin-by letting the children pay too
heavily for the war in child labor, in
creased delinquency, overtaxed nerves,
weakened bodies, and premature
deaths, but England and France turned
to lift war burdens from the children
by giving them chance to play. There
IL urgent need to give our boys and
girls an American square deal-their
safety valve Of play"

Mrs. Stanley Mccormick, in charge
