NEW CUBAN CHESS PRODIGY.
Senorita Mora Appears Showing Re
markable Skill.

| There must be special chess stimu
lus in the Cuban atmosphere, or IA il
perhaps that sugar lands are chess
lands Morphy, greatest Of all, came
from sugargrowing Louisiana.
4 Worlds Champion Jose Capablanca
has proven what Cuba could produce
in the chess masters and now there
has blazed forth in the same land u
new prodigy who gives promise Of be.
coming the chess mistress" of the
world. Our equal rights advocates will
surely permit us to separate the sexes
and to doubt the lady's ability ever to
become the worlds chess MASTER
This ncw light in Cassia ID Senorita
Maria Teresa Mora, who just turned
seventeen, has exhibited a mastery of
the difficult game that has never be-
| fore been cqualled at anything like so
early an age BY feminine player
Senorita Mora's high recognition is not
merely due to the enthusiasm of ultra
optimistic friends, but is the mature
opinion Of the worlds champion him
self that he has expressed in a manner
that proves his belief genuine in every
particular.
Senior Capablanca recently wrote to
the president Of the British Chess
Federation an important letter cover.
ing the conditions under which the
champion believes contests for the
highest chess honor should be con
Quoted. Those regulations he submits
for discussion and promises himself the
pleasuer of being present in person in
England ere long to support his views
by personal argument and evidence, If
such are needed.
But that has nothing to do with
Senorita Mora. In his letter, however,
Capablanca taking up the matter of a
woman's tournament, now in prepare
tion, makes formal request that q
place be left open for the entry for the
young Cuban girl, "This,. the master
says, 'can be done without financial
responsibility on the Chess associa-
tons part since he himself will secure
all the necessary funds in Cuba to send
the young genius 10 Europe. With his
own judgment so fully at stake it is
certain that the champion would not
90 to such lengths unless convinced
that the young lady would give =
worthy account OF herself and reflect |
new chess credit on the pearl Of the
Antilles"
That he has firm basis for such |,
trust is found in recent performance
Of Senorita Mora's at the Cuban capi. /
tai There was held there not long ago !
a tournament for the Bohemia" |
trophy Of the Havana Chess club. This
was. won by Jose Van der Clutch. That
victory led to a match between the
victor Of the tournament and Senior
ita Mora The result was her triumph
By three wins to two losses and two
drawn games.
We hope the little Cuban will have

destrians, to their way of thinking,
have no rights in the part Of the street

result is an appalling loss Of life every
year in the great city. and CORES
pondingly smaller loss Of life in the
other large cities. The wantonness OF

through the fatal injuries inflicted on

burn was struck by motor bus while
in the street and died from the in

Gen. Rush G. Hawkins, was struck by
motor vehicle and SO badly injured
that he succumbcd. Of course, there
have been scores OF other similar cases.

because in each instance the victim
was d man more or less related to Yer
mont through nativity or through as
ISOLATION with Vermont people and in
situations. We have no direct informa-
ton as to the culpability Of the drivers
Of the motor vehicles in these two

down of these two men was only the
incident OF general lawlessness, a
general disregard of the rights of Pc

Part of the cure for tuberculosis at
a sanatorium near New London, Conn,
is said to be. open-air exercises for
children clothed only in shoes and
loose bathing trunks. This fact was re-
vealed when citizens were startled TO
see two youngsters thus clad disport-
ing in the snow with the temperature
down 10 zero and were told that the
youngsters enjoyed the experience and
that il was considered conducive to
restoration of health. just why the
youths could not secure the same
amount of exercise. breathe as much
pure ozone and acquire the other bene-
fits of open-air life when clad in such
"a manner as to protect them from
pneumonia is not apparent To most
people, the report of the occurrence at
the health resort near New London
seems to indicate fad run mad-the
fad of risking life Just to be different

fad in the dead Of winter is not likely
to find favor over a wide field, It seems
certain, despite the suggestion of medi-
cal authority that such an exposure to
the weather of marked severity il con-
ducive to restoration of health.
