His omis sion of the Times-Democrat, New Or leans, and the Times, Philadelphia, is unfortunate. The first of these is edit ed with great ability, while the latter reveals the versatility and humor of the distinguished Reichelm."I had i:C intention of slighting anybody but simply mentioned the chess col umns that come under my personal ob servation. I get many a good thing from the Times and the Times-Democrat but always second-hand.- Have been unable to effect an exchange with these papers or to buy them at the news-ttands. A copy of the Lincoln County Times,! Brookhaven, Miss., - brings me the in formation that MY. Martin D. McGrath, of that city, and well known to Ne braska players by correspondence, has again won the state championship and presidency of the Mississippi chess as-, sociation. :His score of 18 wins,' 1 loss and two draws, is certainly one to be proud of. Mr. B. L. Reece of Yazoo City was a close second with a score of 18 to 3; and former champion, Al len J. Hooker, came third with 17 to 4. The tournament was held at Meridian; 22 of the strongest players entered for the Championship.. A match was played against New Orleans by telegraph, Mississippi losing by 2 to 7. Mr. Mc Grath won, playing black fn a French defense' against J. McConnell, jr., of New Orleans. My friend who wrote those criti cisms on the cable match games did well to remain incog. He bids fair to have stirred up a large-sired hornets' nest In proximity to my devoted head but no doubt I can stand it. Napier of the Pittsburg Dispatch writes mo as follows: "Hearty thanks for article in re cable match. With all deference to its author, there is contained a mis statement in preamble, namely: that Harry N. Pillshurv is a nupi of Ycuns; and Burille He is positively self-instructed and adheres to the teachings of Steinftz If anybody. Plllsbuiy's frreat ability only evinced itself APr TER he left Boston. I make so bold as to say that if he had nol left the Hub, he would have remained in the "synthetic" rut and Dever acquired that faculty on which his title is founded." Napier evidently has views regard ing beans a? an article of human food, and concerning the debilitating effects of the synthetic method of chessplay. I couldn't give expert testimony on either subject. It seems to be up to Young and Burille (and the author of my crltlcues, who may have been mis informed) to, say whether they ever taught the boy, Harry, how to hulld up a primary base that would end in knocking the eternal stuffing out of the other fellow's intrenchments I cannot believe thnt Pillsbury is "posi tively self-instructed " -He play 'sev eral moves in the Spanish game exact ly as they were played back in the 16th century by the Archbishop of Syra cuse. Ruy Lopez; hence, he is a pupil of Ruy Lopez to a sllghj extent. Of course, Napier doubtless means that Young and Burille dfd not give Pills bury a regular course of Instruction; and that nobody else did. I am not wedded to any system of chessplay because I can't play welj enough to know what Is good, better, or be?t. I notice, however, that Sid ney P. Johnston ran up against one of Young's "synthetic ruts" hard enoueh to break several spokes In his wheel. PROVINCE OF QUEBEC, C. A. I am in receipt of a etter from Mr. J. A. DubreuII, of Malsonneuve, Que bec, chess editor of La Patrie, advis ing me, that some time in August the chess players of that province will or ganize a provincial chess association for the purpose of promoting the royal game. A summer meeting will be had probably in Quebec and it is ex pected that over 100 members will be enrolled. ' Mr. DubreuII says: "You will see by the enclosed circular that we are not idle here in these back woods of Canada, an;d I may say that the game is getting very popular espe cially among the French population of the province of Quebec."

PORTO RICAN IMPORTS. : v;at4 states Mmr 0t tfe Bet Cot fee Xow Tksi Tart tm Otf, , The question of Porto Itican imports is now interesting custom house offi cers. Tobacco, cigars, cigarettes and rum, the standard exports of the is land, will be the chief imports subject to the internal revenue tax, says the New York Evening Sun. The custom officers are wondering what other arti cles subject to the internal revenue tax es will be Imported. : , Porto Itican rum is somewhat of an unknown " commodity : among. local drinkers. Little of it has found its way here, and how much the taking off of the tariff will affect its Importation is'a Question. According to a well known liquor dealer, the rum does not differ materially from Santa Crux rum and could be substituted for the latter in the making of punches and . summer drinks. With no tariff on It, it can be bought much ' more . cheaply than San ta Cruz rum. The internal revenue tax on rum must be paid after the product arrives here. ..v'i-."'-' v "-f -:.-' How far the removal of the tariff will deflect the exported Porto Itican coffee to American ports is an interesting problem. In Torto Rico Is grown the finest coffee in the world. Scarcely . a pound of the product comes to the Unit ed States, most of it being shipped to ''Austria and sold in Vienna.. Such of the product as is not sold in Austria is snapped up in Paris and St. Petersburg. The coffee is the highest priced of all coffees. A man who is versed in coffee lore said In speaking of the prospects of' considerable shipments of Porto Iti can coffee here that now that the tariff had been lifted he thought such ship ments were probable, but that even without a tariff we would have to pay more for the product than for Java and Mocha coffees. - The deputy collector of the port ol New York, when asked what - he thought would be imported from' Porto Rico,' replied: : . ":' . ; "I think that for some time tobacco, cigars and cigarettes will be the chief Imports, with the possible exception of sugar. . I'm not so sure about coffee. Porto Rlcan coffee growers have a fine European market for their crop, and time and experience can only deter mine whether they will decide to find a new market in our ports. So far as we know only tobacco and its products and liquors will be subject to the Inter nal revenue tax. Whenever articles subject to this tax arrive we shall sim ply hold them until the internal reve nue agents have collected the tax. I am told that they make a very good quality of hats in Porto Rico, and may be we will get some of them.": A MODEL TENEMENT. Hamueta St met are Far If etr York " to Accomodate ISO Families.. v ?
