NOTED CHESS MASTER DIES IN LONDON AT ADVANCED AGE

LONDON, Nov. 13.-J. H. Black burn, an outstanding figure in Brit ish chess, who was accounted one of the fines to tournament players that ever lived, died recently at the age of 83.
 Blackburn received his early in spiration in chess from Paul Nor phy, the American prodigy, whom he met in 1859. Then it was that he took up the study of chess with self-confidence born in youth and genius. It is said that no player was ever more successful in exhi- bitions of blindfold and simultan- eous play.
 In 1862 Blackburn's success in an exhibition of blindfold play in an international tournament in London against ten strong amateurs most astonished his critics. On that oc- casion he won five games and drew two. He was the first to meet IF and then 15 opponents without sight of board and men, and at Baden Baden he was preparing to deal "blind-folded" with no fewer than 40 opponents when the Franco-Ger man war broke out and scattered the gathering of players.
 With a smile, recalling the incl dent in later years, Blackburn re marked: Perhaps it was as we'll foI me-"

QUIZ 18TH CENTURY
 MARRIAGE LEGALITY

LONDON, Nov. 7.-The legitf- macy of the deemed heirs to the Duchy of Somerset, one of Eng lands oldest titles, dating back to 124O, is being contested in one of the queerest cases on record It is now before the committee of privi- leges of the House of Lords.
 The argument of the case turns upon the question whether or not Colonel Francis Compton Seymour was legally married to LeOnora Hudson in the latter part of the eighteenth century. Leonora Hud- son was the grandmother of the present heir to the Duchy Sir Ed ward Hamilton Seymour
 Previous to her marriage to Colonel Seymour, Leonora Hudson was the beautiful wife of an Eng fish seaman. The Duke met her ac- cidentally when he went to her res cue on a London street when she was being attacked by her hus- band. Several years later the Duke married the girl, when it was be- lieved Seaman Hudson had been lost at sea.
 Later the then Duchess of Somer- set believed she saw her former husband lettering about her home. It has never been confirmed wheth- CT or not Hudson was still living at the time The defence in the present action maintains that a second marriage was consumated in 1792 to make assurance doubly sure. Despite the fact that 500 cir cular letters were sent throughout England this second marriage has not yet been officially confirmed.
 The House of Lords committee expects to give decision about No vember 15.

SPORTS ARE SCORED
 BY BRITISH DOCTOR

LONDON, Nov. 13.-The British public golfs too much and eats too much, according to Dr. Leonard Will Hams, a Harley Street specialist and a corresponding member of the American Climatalogical Society.
 As for golf, the game has a bad moral effect, according to the phys ician. "A man loses his match" says Dr. Williams, land, as a re- suit. is unhappy about it, is dis gruntled, is bad tempered. His thoughts are on the next game which he VOWS he will win. And too often he is discontented until na does win"
 "The way the English take their food is almost as disturbing to Dr. Williams as the way they take their golf. Tt is not realized by the public that it takes as much energy to digest an English meal as it does to take five mile walk. Peo- rle eat far too much. The day is started with a heavy breakfast; a full meat lunch follows; then there is tea, accompanied by scones and cakes; and finally there is dinner, running to several courses. This is far more than can be properly di- gested.
 Tt would be saner and healthier to start with a Continental break fast, and follow it with light lunch. Tea should be cup of tea and nothing more. Dinner then could remain what it is."

Many Deaths Among
 British Aviators Deeply
 Concerns Government

LONDON, Nov. 13.-Since the be- ginning of the present year there have been 58 deaths among officers and men of the Royal Air Force di- rectly due to accidents to machines. Considerable anxiety is occasioned by such a large number of fatali- ties to the personnel of the youngest arm of national defense, and the Aeronautical Research Committee is urging that steps be taken immed- lately to lessen the losses due to lack of technical knowledge among members of the force. All of the experts declare the skill of British pilots cannot be questioned.
 The Aeronautical Research Com mittee last year emphasized the need for a higher standard of technical knowledge in all ranks of the Royal Air Force and particularly among squadron officers. In this years report they note with satisfaction that the Air Council agrees with them.
 But a general raising of the standard of technical knowledge" the committees report declares, must take time Meanwhile acci- dents which, in the view of the committee are primarily due to the absence of this knowledge, continue to occur. Many machines are de stroyed, while in some cases lives are lost The committee has felt it to be within their province to urge. any steps that might reduce such losses
 Aeronautical experts are prompt to suggest, as the real remedy for present defects, that the Royal Air Force be equipped with machines that will. not stall, machines which, when they get to the stalling point, will simply glide forward and sink flat.
 "To provide the remedy may mean the expenditure of money" said one observer, but you have either to supply an elementary training machine that is foolproof or go on with the present method with it's loss of life?"
