As to how chess was introduced
into we tern and central Europe little

say that chess was brought into En-
rope At the time of the Crusades, the
theory being that Christian Warriors
learned to play It at Constnntinnnlp.

More probable II is that the Span

chess from the Byzantines,

In the Nineteenth Century, curious
letter from the cardinal archbishop Of
Ostla to Pope Alexander H. written
about 1861, bearing on the game
The cardinal had imposed n oen

diverting himself with chess, and In
his letter to the pope the cardinal
quotes the language OF reproof he
had used to his errlng subordinate:
"Was II right, say, and consistent

TraUel Always With
Death as Companion

Bolivia is probably the most mac
cesslble country in the world. It can
only be reached by crossing the Andes
or by taking a long and difficult Jour
ney through the Argentine. Thus
although It is four times us large as
Great Britain, Its population Is only
one-qunrter that of London
It lies wholly in the tropical belt
but much OF Its surface consists of
lofty tableland running up to 10000
feet, where the climate Is intensely
dry and cold, with considerable snow
and fearful electric storms,
A track crosses this great plateau
to the western seaboard, and along
this trail travels a constant stream n
mules and donkeys carrying rubber
and other products Of Bolivia to the
coast. In many places the track Is r
mere shelf Of rock with nothing be
tween its edge and a drop of thou
sands of feet. In places the track rises
10000 feet above sea level. The whole
trail is lined with the bleached skele
tons OF pack animals, and the losses
are enormous.
On this plateau, at height of l3,
600 feet, is the vast Lake Tlticaca, al
most as big as Lake Erie In Canada
