END GAME.

The following is the ending of a gante played by the winner of the Carlsbad Chees Club handicap tourney, Herr Victory Tiotz, who was giving the odds of a Rook. I will give the play next week, but sodrers will find it interesting to work out what has been termed a 'diabolizal ending" :

As a thess player, Mr Barlow might have taken the highest rank. He was an arcent student, an original player, was not disappointed to lose a game provided he did so brilliantly,

was a genisi companion, and a more good Bellow. As Secretary of the Hongkong Chess Club, he did excellent work. I hope he will be able to pursue his favourite gaune in the popular chess resorts of London; and I look forward to the time when I will have the plessure of his chaperonage in 'the little villago,'-On behalf of all lús ok | chess companions I wish him a speedy ro covery of good health in his native climate.
