PETR0GRAD CITY OF MISERY
Incident Recorded BY Maxim oersy
Reveals Friehtful Conditions In =
the Great Russian Capital.

Maxim Gorky has written several
sketches of human interest bearing on
events In the Russian revolution.
which appear In a recent number Of
the Suddeutschen Monatshefte. Among
them the following adventure of a
young woman In the streets Of Petro-
grad late at night. written in Gorky's
characteristic style:
young woman tells me:
"I was with my sick sister until late
and left her Mt midnight to go home.
Just when all the lights in the streets
were extinguished. The streets were
dark and ghostly figures stood In
doorways-one could not tell whether
they were watchmen or robbers. As
hurried. along suddenly heard
heavy steps behind me. looked
around fearfully. A man In military
uniform. slender and with pale face
and hollow eyes. was following me.
"There was nobody else In sight and
no signs Of a cab. The man continued
following me like fate. My God.
thought. is he going to rob me or. per-
haps. do something even worse? took
my gold bracelets from my arms and
hid them In folds of my dress. He ap-
preached me. and in soft, sad mu-

He, however. kept pace beside me.

HE laughed-a forced, tragic laugh.
and said:

ask for aims? l have not had bite

and a respectable man. But. by God I!

be responsible for myself. Help me,

II looked steadily at him NOW.

a small black mustache. l opened my

"'But where are you going to get
something to eat at this time of the

are closed. Come with me and l will

HE shook his head.
"'No. he said sadly, I cannot do
that; want no one ever to know

back.

Red Cross Sends Supplies.
Directly in the wake of the soldiers
and supplementing the efforts of the
allied governments in their behalf fol-
lowed the American Red Cross with
reserve stocks of foods and supplies
and the comforts that fighting men
have come to expect from the Red
Cross. Two shiploads of supplies of
all sorts provided by the American
Red Cross reached Archangel late in
September, one vessel, the Ascutney
which left America. carrying 1900
tons of food. drugs, soap and miscel-
laneous articles; the other, Il British
transport. loaded In London, having
on board 200 additional tons of sup

How old ls chess7

Just exactly how old chess really Is nobody knows. Some authorities credit PaIamedes with the invention of It, and Palamedes was Grecian hero Of the Trojan war, meaning that the game dates back as far as 1OSO E. .. But even more astounding is the fact that a game essentially the same as modern chess was played in Hindustan nearly 5000 years ago. Thence 1t spread to Persia, after that to Arabia and finally came into Spain In the eighth century. After that, of course. it attained to popularity In nearly all western Europe. It Is the most intel lectual of all games of skill and spon- sored by the intellectusls of all coun- tries. Indeed our owD Dr. Benjamin Franklin was an enthusiastic player of chess.
