The concluding sentence of the following pamgraph, which we take from Mr. Van Vliet's column in To-Tay, will be ondorsed by all chess-lovers--"Chess-players throughout the world will be keenly disappointed to learn that the watch for the championship which was to have been fought in September between Doctors B. Lasker and 8. Tarrasch has been postponed for at least a year. The reason assigned is that. Dr. Tarrasch met with a severe ics accident in January et Nuremberg, which, ho thinks, will unlit him for so important a contest during this year. We are sure, how ever, that Dr. Turrasch will receive due sympathy, as an ină accident which can inca. pacitate a chors player for a period of eighteen months must be severe indeed."
Two changes were made at the last moment in the list of players competing in the Cambridge Springs Tournament. Herr Goza Maroczy and Mr. Lipschutz were unable to play and were replaced by Mr. Julius Finn, of the Manhattan Chess Club, and Mr. Albort W. Fox, champion of the Brooklyn Chess Club. This tournament is now in progreen.
The London Chess League championship for 1903-4 was won by the Metropolitan Chess Club, with 10 wins in 11 matches.

Reviewing the stoma engineering progress of Japan, Prof. Banji Mano finds that the first loud engine was placed in a spinning will at Kagoshima in 1883, and that the first made in the country came about ten years later. In 1901 the land ongines in use numbered 4,258, with a horse-power of 77,527. The first railway, with four British locomotives, was opened bo tween Tokyo nad Yokohama in 1872; to-day' the railway mileage is 4,469, with 1,469 locomo tives. The first stenner was brought from Holland in 1855; the first built in the country steamers is 1.079, with a gross tonnage of dates from 1866. The present number of

An extraordinary case of "multiple personal- ity has been described to the London Pevchi- cal Society by Dr. Albert Wilson. In 1895 a well-behaved, intelligout girl of 123 years was taken sick with influenza, followed by meniagi- tis, and after an illness of six weeks her facial expression aud muner changed, and she became childish, clipping her words. She had to be re- taught the meaning of words, while she wrote each one backward. Her characteristice, more- over, changed rapidly, so that she often seemed three different persons in five minutes, and Dr. Wilson has classified altogether ten of these distinct personalities besides her own normal one. She was at times more childish and ignor ant than at other times. Sometimes she whe deaf and dumb. at other times paralysed in the lower limbe; sometimes she wrote forward and spoke backwards: occasionally she became an imbecile, blind and apathetic. and in another change she was au aprobat, trying to
