TYesterdsy cloeed the first week of the Amer- fan Chess Congress, and was productive of someinteresting Tesnlts. Mr. Keunicott came town, snd owing to the pressure of other busicess engagements he announced his with- éraval from the touroament. Thisaction on his putmsde quite a change in the score, a8 the games heretofore won of hum by Messrs. Mac- Leuzie and Hosmer do not couat for them, but sre canceled, as Mr. Kenmcott is considered out of the best of players. BOCK V8. JUDD. TYesterdsy morning Mesars. Bock, of Chicago, and Judd, of Bt. Louis, resumed their contest, playing the second game, in which Mr. Bock had the astack., Mr. Judd played the French De- fenss, sod the position at the end of the opeping was somewhat in Mr Bock's favor. Scon sfterwards, however, he Excrificed 8 piece, with the view of obtaining & powerful attack, and the succeeding few moves abundantly proved that the sacrifice was un- sound. Mr. Judd got fully 88 good & pogition as did his o] {oneut, and the pieces were rapidly exchanged, o that Mr. Bock's early defeat be- came a certainty, He lost the gume in about tlurty moves. This completed the match be- tween these gentlemen, Alr. Judd winuing oue e, and the other being drawn. With Mr. osmer, of Chicago, it will be remembered that e, Judd won one game and lost one. CONGDOX V8. ELDER. The contest pending between Messrs. J. R, Congdon, of Phuladelphia, and F. H. Elder, of Detvoit, was also concluded yesterdny morning. The first game Lad been won iy Alr.

This he rapidly itproved, and won the first game very hand- EDely by & vigorous asssult on Mr. Perriv's caled kirg. They played the second game im- mcdistely thereafter, and this Mr. Bockalsotook intycamp quite quicxly. He played very well soughont, whule Ar. Perria by no means did biuself justice 1n either one of tho games. These 130 %ictories had the effect of improving Mr. BocY's scare very considerably, it now standing nowerically bigher than that oz any other player 10 t:6 tournament, _HOW THE SCORE STANDS. xZTl.m condition of the ecore has been g0 much :L 2ed by the withdrawal of Mr. Kennicott at o present it again 1n full, as follows : G.

A TRIBUSE reporter called at the Pacific Hotel yesterday ovening, sud had the plessure of & brief interview with Mrs. Van Cott, the eloquent lady speaker, whoss addrosses bave been the means of converting many a waveriog soul. and of adding hundrods to tue fold of the Methodwst Episcopalisn Church. The lady, notwitbstand- ing the very severe work she has nndertaken of late, appeared to bs in excellent heslth, though her voice gives evidences of overtaxation. ln response to & query, Mis. Van Cott gave A STMDARY OF THE WORK she has accomplished during the past month. On the 19th of June she arrived at Sacramento, Cal., where she mado an sddrees, aud raised $1,000 for the benefit of Kingsley Chapel. On the 15tn of June she arrived at Stociton, Cal., whote she staved four days; on the 16th uhe arived a: San Francisco, whore she stayed three days, during which ume she raised $16.000 for the Powell Street Church. Leaving Sun Francisco,she went to Sierra Valiey, where she held a ten-day camp- meeting, which was blest witd no lesa than eighty-five convorsions, and where fifty mem- bers oo probation joived the church. Daring ber stay she delivoredan address on temperance, which resulted in the meeting declaring itsell almost unanimous in favor of the optioaal law. A temperance address at San Francisco netted the church the hsodsomoe sum of $4,000. The spiritual gaio of the lady's labors at San Fran- cisco wad seventy members sdmitted to full membership of the church who had last fall been taken on probation. At Omaha, Neb., the lady's work was revaided with the admission to full membership of mo less than soventy-eight probationers of lnst full snd the conversion of twenty-eight who nad nat yet felt the truth. HER EXGAGEMENTS. Mrs. Van Cott is eugazed for positive work wotil 1878 in il parts of the Union. At present she is on her way to_Baltimora, whither she will go via New York, whbich is her birth-place, and where she will rest for one day. From Baiti- moro she will go to Salem, Mass., wheace sho wil return to the Northwest on the 1st of August, her _fust visit in ibis vicinity being settled for Genesa Lake, Wis. 'Thence she will repair to Kankakee, 11, where she will siny from the 12thto tho 2ithof August, after which she will holda camp-meeting at Lorenzo, Cal. ra, Van Cott hopes to have tha pleasure of paying Ohicago & prolonged visit some time during the next winter. She thinks that the woman's temper- ance movement is & grand sucoess; that women are only beginning to learn and teach whab power they possess 8 saviors, and thut this is o magnificent field of laoor, to which they must all push forward. A summary of Mrs. Yan Cott's work daring the past mouth ehows that she has added about 300 soule and $20,000 hard cash to the chusch. Chicago will havean opportupity to-day of increas- ing the figures of bosh items as the taleated lady will make addresses both morning and eveaing in the Methodist Church Elock, corner Wash- ington and Clark streeis. i THOSE STOLEN BONDS. The New York Zimes of Friday has the follow- ing in reiation to & case which bappened in this city Iast summer, and which creaied some sousa- tion ot the timo Some time ago, it will be remembered, the Chicigo papers published a highly-sensational report of the Roubery of a lady named Miss Fauny A. Sbotwell, og, thie ruiiroud cars, whilo troveling from New York to ihat clty. In her statement, Mita Shotweil sad that #ho was the possessor of about §50,000 in bonds when stopping at the Grand Central Hotel in this ciy. Shs wistied to proceed to Chicago, and so informed the clerk ot the Grand Central Hotel, who introdacea her to 2 gentleman who ho said was traveling to the same destination. Accordingly, it waa agreed upon that ties Shotwell was to travel in care of the gentlemau, and the travelers left the city together, On arriving 3t Caicago Miss Bhotwll reportea that on the routo her traveling companion Lecatne £0 much interested in Rer affairs a to wish to co the contents of her tranka, and that st the conclusion of the journey she found her bondshad been stolen, Her com- panion disappeared, and nothing more was heard of Tho nffair for some ' time, The proprictors of tha Grund Ceatral Hotel at the timo of the occurrece denied that they ever had in their omploy a clerk of {he name given by Miss Shotwell in her sccount of the introduction at the hotel, The story was copied futo the Tumics at the date of its occurrence. One or both of the partioa tathe transaction have now turned up in a new light. Philip D. Roddy, of No. 127 Pearl street, New York, Tesiding in _Jersoy City, charges the celebrated heroine of the ratirozd bond robbery, Fanny A. Shotwell, alixs Carlotta F.Saot~ well, allas Catlotta F. Roddy, which she claima to be Ber legal name, with stealing from him in Jersey City, on of about the 15th of March lset, en Operu- glnss, valued at $15, and s number of Diitish sover- Signs, valued st 595, which she conveyed to tuis by, " On this charge the accused was held for the “otlon of the Grand Jury, who yesterdsy found an indictment sgainst her for grand lurceny. An indict~ ment for perjury iss also boen found against Miss Shot- Sell, on complant of Roddy. In the Court of General Eessions yesterduy the prironer was arraigned to plead to both iudictments, and through ber counsel, Mr. A. ¥, Hummel, pleaded not guilty. Miss Blotwell, aliad Mrs. Roddy, statcs thet sheis thelawfal wife of Philip D. Roddy, and that about s month since she preferred a charge against him befoga Justice Flam- er. The Justice, she adds, advised her lawyer to Have the matter amicably dieposed of by otlier Means e she agreed 0, but was Smmediately afterward arreated on the chirges for which sha has been in- Qicted. It i also alleged that Roddy was Miss Shot- well's traveling companion on the trip to Chicago, on Which rhe lowt her bonds—if she did lose them—and that he subsequently morried her, Mr. Roddy, on his part, denies ail knowledge of the bond robvéry, and ils0 denics thut he was ever married to Miss” Shot- well, —_— ONE OF THE WISEST OF CHARITIES. To the Edstor of Ths Chicago Tribune: Sr=: While the word charity appesls fo every buman heart, and indicates & crowning glory of Christian civilization, it is apparent to every thoughtful person that there are certain forms and methods and aims that specially commend themselves 28 wise and hopefal. All who have tried, know the difficuliies and discourage- ments that attend all attempts at curing diseases well under way. And out of this experienco hag arisen the proverb, ‘* Anounceof prevention is worth s pound of cure.” Banitary and socinl eionce are beginning to recognize the fact that the only really efiiciont way of dealing with their great probloms is that of anticipation 2ad the removal of causes. Epedemics, that cannot be controlled, can be prevented. And the lite holda true of social evils. "One of the most serious causes of the degra~ tion and ruin of women lies in the fact that so many girls are incapablo of earniug for them- selves any sdequate and Lbonorable support. Those cbarities, then, that simply pick them ont of the street, read them moral lessons, offer them 2 temporary suppoit, and then leb them go out again as incapable a8 ever, hava about them no elements of permagent promise. Under the impnlse of reflections like these, one of Chicaga’s noble women has set herself abont an attempt that must command the respect of every wise lover of Lumsnity. It is to be hoped it will also command their assistance. Mrs. E. A. Haslans bas established an Orphsa Girl's Home at 315 West Monroe street. She began her work alone in January last, by taking to hier homeeight girls. She carried on ber work, and Fn.'\d all its expenses out of her own purse, until the st of May. Since then she has1e- ceived some assistauce, though she stiil pays more than $12 per week vus of her owo means. The Home isnow regularly organized and legally chartered, so0 tbat it is ready to take its place among the established institations of the city. Its eand plsn are grand, It pro- posas & building, whioh it Lopen o ereos next year. It will receive girls from 12 to 16 years of age. It will study their tastes and capacitics, and train each one into the knowledge and neo of that special industrs for which she shows an aptitnde. Thus it will practically teach all bianches of woman's wori, aud when a girl loaves the institution sho will go out into the world ready to be eomething besidos & victia, Miss Emily Faithfnll saya that the great difi- culty with woman's work iz England is that most women do not know how to do anvthing but the commonest, and therefore the cheupest, work. Hence, s ruinous compatition and starvation. And all employers kuow how bard it is to find & wom- an who 18 competént to do rightly what they wish done. . The object of this writing is t6 call the atten- tion of the thoughtfal men and women of Chi- €azo0 to the wisdom of tius work, and it is hoped then wheu our great city ouce sees its character it will speedily place 1t on ifs feet. and fill it handa with the blessings which it longs to hold out to thoso who may bo nobie womea, but who 10 in danger of being loft to_fall from the g:andeur of their promise.

Ho also fined Le Vick 37, and Mademoise:le Seers 3. This decision was a stunner to the *‘la- dies,” but they were obliged to stand it. Joseph Jordan, a'bus-driver who lives at No. 191 Rendolph street, was before Justice Boyden sesterdsy morning under thio fol.owing circum- Btances: On the 27th of last mooth, Michael Conway, driver of a Halsted-streot car, was an- noyed and bis car stopped by Jordsn driving in front of him on the track, stopping his ’bus, and impeding tho progress of the car, paying no heed whatever to the signal of the conductor to leave the track.

Itis not likely that she will be charged. specifically, with causing tho desth of Lowson. Heiss. Norwegian and Lis wife sn Irishwoman. MIECELLANEOUS.

EVANSTON. The dedication of the sudience room of the Firat Methodist Episcopal Church of Evaoston, which is announced to take place one week from to-day, is an event which has been looked for with longing by a largs nnmber of pereons, and for no inconsiderable length of time. The base ment of this elegant church edifice was dedicat- ed as far back in the past as 1871, since which time it has been in constant use, but has proved sadly inadequate to the wants of the society and the village. Although the basement will seat more persons tban apy other similar edifice in Evaoston. it was not sutficiently spacious to sccommodate those who were gathered togetaer for servicos of suecial interest, But, thongh badly needod, the officers of the church bave proceeded with great deliberation, sand were determined to see their way ciear be- fore completing the upper portion of the baild- ing. Finaliy the woik could be delayad mo longer, and the result is an audience- room which, it is c.aimed, will comforta- bly seat a larger rumber of periona than will any church in Chicsgo. In appearauce the bulding, which is buil: of the bes: white brick, will, when the spire is completed, be excelled by few, if any, church ediices in the West. The entice costof the suucture thus far has been about $60,000. The sudieoce-room, which is arranged to eat 1,84 people, required 1,500 yards of carpeting to cover the tioor.
