Perhaps the Forsyth notation was too much for you. -The problem is here re peated in English notation: White, K on KB 5, Q on KKt 2,-pawna oi KKt 5. KK 6. Black, K on QKt 8, Q on KB sq R on QKt 5,Kt on KKt 3, P on KR 2, Give Black the move and he mates by R-KR5. But White has the move how can he escape? .': ;.v- "- C. H. Marling, South Omaha, has pro-' cured a copy of Cunnington's Chess Pri mer through this department and feels highly pleased with the book.. The Neb raska Chess Association will welcome him as a memUer whenever he , is ready to join, v..-. v . s Rev, and Mrs. 3. A.; Younkins, Natro na, Pennsylvania, have been elected hon orary members of the Nebraska Chess Association. In a letter to the Chess Editor, Mr. Younkins says: UI will be pleased to play with any of your readers who may desire to have a friendly 'joust." Here is an opportunity for some good chess practice. , Tne two games between Lee Jiiawaras, of Lincoln (now of Dunlap, Iowa) and W. W. Gibson, Wa-Keeney, Kansas, in vth K.N intor-ctAtA - math Vijjva rwn drawn by agreement. , The - score now stands 7f to 7i with the , Tyson-Voss Same to finish. ' If this . should prove a raw, the match will be a tie, requiring another round sometime in the future. , . - " J. M. Bruner lost a queen's gambit declined to B. B. Rice in 59 moves. This gives Mr. Rice second place in section C and he has eutered the fjnal round. ' -, Owing to the great distance between players, the composite game progressed more slowly the past week. The play was: "r 5 - ' ' 5. J.. ...;- Ellis, Kt Q3 ; 6. Rice. Kt-QB3 ' , - So far the game has proceeded along eaeh player in turn understood thorough ly what to do. But an important crisis has been reached; if Black does not de fend properly, mate will come before all the players have a chance to show- their skill: on the other hand, Black by cor rect play will probably win; in. the endgame- ; . . . ., ' - It seems that a few of . the Indepen dent's readers do not . understand the signs, O-O and O-O-O.

Indiana Populists The following notice of the meeting of the Indiana ' populist "state , convention has been sent to the Independent 'for publication. Along with it came the most encouraging reports. The regular populists of Indiana are getting into good shape. - ' - Indianapolis, Ind., March 20,1900. To the Populists of Indiana: Pursuant to call of our national com mittee at Lincoln, Neb., on Feb. 19, the populists of Indiana are hereby directed to meet in state convention at the court house in Indianapolis on Tuesday, May 1, to select seventeen . delegates to the national convention at Sioux Falls, S. D., on May 9, for the purpose of nominating candidates for president cv and : vice president. You are hereby instructed to meet in the usual places of meeting in the several counties of the state on Tuesday, April 24, and select two delegates and two alternates from, each county to attend the state convention at India napolis on May 1st as above stated. 4 John Medebt, "Adam P.

MISSI8SIPPI-!fBBRA8KA MATCH ' The Mississippi-Nebraska chess match by-correspondence 13 now - under. -way, Arrangements for the match were made ' by President M. D. McGrath. of the Mississippi State Chess Association, and Secretary C. Q. De France, of the Ne braska Chess Association, and play be- ' flrun in less than three weeks from the time challenge was accented. -In-,view of the fact that President McGrath's team had to be organized and ranked within the time mentioned, - this is re markably quick work. - The Nebraska team does not include several - of the strongest correspondence - players, but His believed : that those playing will srive a good account of themselves. Messrs. Biddle, Hinman and Rice asked to be excused because they are now en- gazed in playing in the final round- for correspondence championship of Ne braska. The personnel oi tne opposing teams is as follows: r- ; Mississippi. - rt . Judge A. H- Whitfield, Jacksoiv Special Offer The People's Party had its origin and growth through the Alliance organiza tions among the farmers. It is essen tially a party of education a party of progress. All of the principles which it originally put forth have steadily grown in favor. Many of them have been rec ognized and ' made a part of the plat forms of one or both of the old political parties. The Peoples Party has grown and prospered greatest in the states where it has pursued a : policy of educa tionwhere it has taught the people in principles of government. There is no class of people so thoroughly acquainted withpohtical affairs as the members of the People's Party in Nebraska.' With pride it points to its leaders as the bright est intellects in the United States the. leaders to whom oppressed people in all other states are turning for relief. It was the People'3 Party in Nebraska that first championed the principles and put forth the men .who are destined to bring relief . to the ' common people. In Ne braska' the People's Party, has prospered and not the least of the factors in its suc cess is the Independent. Published at Lincoln - the capital for eleven years it has continued. to educate the people of the state. " It has - pounded along the same lines from . the same stand. It is the old reliable. Nebraska populists ap preciate what it has done for them. For the patronage they have given, it is thank ful. It has labored faithfully in good times and in bad. In Iowa the People's Party paper found it more profitable to give up the fight for the party and to become a 'strictly Agricultural paper. In Kan sas the Topeka Advocate, once a fearless champion of the people has changed its policy and is now . only an "agricultural or family paper." The populists ' of In diana are without a paper, and in all of those states the party of gold,' trusts and imperialism is in power. In Nebraska where the state paper of the party ' has been educational and has been loyal, courageous and energetic at all times the People's Party has prospered as no where else. The greatest battle is yet to be fought. Presidential . electors, state officers, congressmen, the legisla ture and two United States senators de pend on the result of the contest. Edu cation has been the most effective weapon in the past and it should not be neglected now. The Nebraska Inde pendent has been the most successful educator in the past, is now, and will continue to' be. It is always a leader in the struggle' for "equal rights to all and special privi leges to none." The trust has doubled the price of white paper but that is only a reason why the fight will be the harder. The special rates announced for new campaign subscriptions are proportion ately lower thant1,aiiyisthit!:have ever been announced lfl'the'past. i Hundreds have taken advantage of the special offer and have sent in clubs of five. Many loyal populists have paid these subscrip tions from their- own. pockets. They realize that it is the surest way to get results at the eletftioWMtnfIrall. To en courage this plan of canitiaWfn Inde- pendent proposes to make a rate that is at this time Below Actual Cost with Che hope that the circulation may be sufficiently increased to bring the' aver age cost per copy down to the special rate announced. It costs less per copy to print 50,000 papers than it does to print 40,000. To meet the rate we have announced we must add 6,000 new sub scribers. Will you help?' Will you do your part? Will you get five or ten of your neighbors to subscribe? " If you do not care to take the time or if you can not get them to subscribe will you pay for it and send it to them anyhow? We have met you more than half way. Here is the offer: : The Independent every week from now until after the election,' seven months: To one new subscriber 35c, to three new subscribers $1, to five new subscribers $1.50, to ten new sub scribers $3. i No other reform paper in the United States has made any such an offer as that The Independent has the best facilities in the state for printing papers in large numbers. It is printed upon the largest and fastest Press west of Philadelphia, a quadruple Hoe perfect ing machine with a capacity or 48,000 eight page papers ; printed and folded in one hour. When you are in Lincoln you are invited to call and see it in the Press building 13th and N streets. With all these facilities the Independent has an 'noriced the lowest rate poss. Je, even allowing for the increased circulation. : It's up to you now will you do your part? ; Independent Publishing Co. 13th and N Streets Lincoln, Neb. IN THE SICK ROOM We have bud the care of a patient dur ing an attack of pneumonia which last ed several weeks, and ' with the assis tance and direction of an excellent phy sician.had the pleasure of seeing her recover. The doctor told us that in such cases as this a great deal depended on the care the patient receives, and per haps a few suggestions will be helpful to those who take the position of nurse in the sickroom. The pain in the side which is often present in this and other . diseases is greatly relieved by the application of a mustard plaster, hot water bag, a bag of hot salt or bran, or a hot iron. A dozen ears of corn boiled in water for ten or fifteen minutes then packed about the body will induce a profuse perspiration and relieve pain but great care is neces sary to prevent the patient from taking cold when they are removed. When the fever is high, sponge the body all over with warm water in which boracic acid has been dissolved, using a tea spoonful of acid to a gallon of water. This should de repeated every morning and evening, and never fails to have a cooling, soothing effect, causing the pa tient to fall into a quiet, refreshing sleep. It is a great help in reducing the tem perature of the body. Fever weakens the whole body and the eyes are often permanently injured unless some care is bestowed on them. See that they are not exposed to, bright sunshine, and use a lamp shade at night or place the lamp so that the light will not shine on the face of the patient. When the cough is hard and dry, rub the chest and back with a mixture com posed of equal parts of lard and turpen tine, then cover with a hot flannel -cloth. Repeat this every two hours until he ob tains relief. In very severe cases remove the clothing, have the room warm and plenty of hot water at hand. Set a pan of water on the stove where it will keep hot and put a tablespoonf ul of red pep per in it. Fold a cloth three or four times, wring it out of the water and cov er the chest with at. Change every fif teen minutes. This will bring the inflam mation to the surface, ana has been known to save life - in several instances when the doctor gave but little hope of recovery. The mouth often becomes so thickly coated that it is almost impossible to taste anything, and is very unpleasant. Put a little boracic acid in half a cupful of water, dip a soft white rag into it and wash the tongue, gums ' and roof of the mouth with it three or four times a day. It will help to remove the coating and a great , deal of the bitter taste which us ually troubles them. " How should we comb her hair?" I asked the doctor when, after several days illness, the patient was too weak and nervous to have it disturbed. "Let it alone until she is stronger;" was the reply, "then rub vaseline into it, let it remain all night, and the combing will not be a difficult task." "We found this plan a good one, for when one is so weak that the least exertion tires them out, they should be kept as quiet as possible. E. J. C. ,,. v DOCTOR J. L.
