INTERSTATE MATCHES.
This Is a popular way to conduct
correspondence chess, inasmuch as the
entrants are usually required to play
but one game each. - It is hinted that
New York and Pennsylvania will
shortly enter the field with such an
army on each side that even the East

Massachusetts vs. Iowa will look on
with wonder.
The latest scores are as follows:

Ohio, 1; Nebraska, 3.

B. B. Rice, Grand Island, our pres

as follows:
"In the Iowa-Nebraska match, Chas.
Creswell. Pes Moines, on his ISth move
offered me a draw. I accepted. In
Ohio-Nebraska match. W. It. Smith,
Groveport, suggests a draw and I have
consented. ' I have been playing from
two to ten correspondence games con
tinuously for some four years and am
completely worn out and tired of chess.
Can play no more for six months or a
year. Health poor." Sorry to hear of
Mr. Rice's poor health. He should
send score of the Creswell game; and
Mr. Smith should send in score of the
Ohio game.

these two tied for second place.
Mr. Powell of St. Edward, playing in

his standing; but be won his East vs.

De Prance. In section 2, has all fin

Cowles, and which he probably must
win in order to be the section winner.
Cowles has a score of 3 to with
De France , and Moise to finish; De
France has a score of 4 to H. with
Cowles to finish. Should Cowles win
from Moise and draw with De France,

also without danger exchange knights

sis has shown that the first named
move (Q R 5) yields black a very dif
ficult game, while by ther the second
or the third he may obtain a satisfac
tory defense."
