WY. VERNON AND ANACOSTIA MATCHED A Change in the Compass Whist Games. THE SsUIT CONTROVERSY ‘The match between the Mount Vernon and Anacostia checker clubs was played Thursday evening in the Anacostia Club rooms. The teams on each side numbered six, Messre. Mundelle, Ward and Farquhar, the strongest players of the Mt. Vernon Club, being barred. Each player played two games with each player of the opposing side. ‘The match began at 8 o'clock and-was not finished until after midnight. The Anacos- tias took the lead and kept it throughout the evening, winning by the score of 35 to 24 wins, or 41% to 30%, counting draws, %. ‘The indivdual scores were as follows: MT. VERNON, The Mt. Vernon Club were surprised the strength shown by their opponents, and another match will probably be played soon, when some changes will be made in the Mt. Vernon team. The Anacostias are playing a tournament, which is nearing completion. Dr. Weiss is leading at .present. A match between one of the strongest players of each club is also talked of. Notwithstanding the announcement that the chess tournament at the Capital Bi- cycle Club would close on the 3ist instant, but few games are being played, though a large number are yet unplayed. The mem- bers are paying most attention to whist. The score to date is as follows: Usina, won 22, lost 2; Barrick, won 20%, lost 344; Quackenbush, won 11, lost 2; Doug- las, won 9, lost 6; Carr, won 11%, lost 11%; Macdani won 15, host 16; Rines, won 8, lost 17; Falck, won 9, lost 21; Calver, won 5%, lost 13%; Wirt, won lost 26 At the Washington Chess Club, in the contest for first prize in the individual match tournament, Messrs. Hanna and Usina drew their second game, after sixty- seven moves. The first game likewise re- sulted in a draw. Patterson played a French defense in the fifth game with Tibbetts, and resigned after twenty-sevén moves, having lost a rook through a blunder. Tibbetts won the match by the seore of 3 to 1 and 1 draw. Patterson is a first-class probiem composer and correspondence piayer, and some of his combinations are brilliant, but, iike a good many problemists, his search for beautiful situations causes him to blunder and to indulge in unsound play. This leaves in the second prize class Tib- betts and Walker, who are paired, and Tharp ‘and Otte, in whose match the score stands 5 to 4 in favor of Otte, with one game drawn. In the third prize class are Messrs. Gwyer, Gichner, Patterson and O*Farrell. Gichner and Gwyer played the first game of their match. It was won by Gichner. Mr. J. E. Macfarland returned to the city this week after an absence of about five months in Chiczgo, where he has been pur- suing a special course of study. He says he has played but three games of chess in his absence. However, he is as full of chess enthusiasm as ever. The other after- ncon he played six games of “skittles” with Capt. O'Farrell, quitting even with him. Mr. Macfarland will remain in the city about three months, when he goes into the field for the geological survey, with which he is connected. A story is going the rounds of a joke which Lasker played on Steinitz at Riga. The-iatter- was playing simultaneously at the oe Chess Club, and was rather sur- prised to find-oné of his adversaries, who sat with head buried in both hands, appar- ently in deep study, making some unusu- ally forceful moves. Steinitz is very near sighted, and had not noticed particularly his opponent. He now observed him close- ly, and discovered his identity, whereupon he said nothing, but quietly lifted his king from the board in token of his surrender. Steinitz has gone to Rostoff, Russia, to play a match with Schiffers. He is an- nounced to return to this country In May, and to leave again for Moscow in July, to meet Lasker in a championship match. A mixed double team whist match was played last Saturday evening between Bal- timore and Philadelphia. The match consist- ed of sixteen deals in the afternoon and the same number in the evening. At the end of the afternoon’s play, the Philadel- plians were three ahead, but in the evening the players from the monumental city gained 13 to the opponents’ 4 1-3, win- ning the match by 52-3 tricks. The teams were composed as follows: Baltimore—Mrs. Butler, the Misses Dallam, Fisher and Goldsbcrough, oe Whelan, McCoy, BR. Smith and Dr. Wm. Smith, Philadelphia —Mrs. T. H. Andrews, Mrs. Harrison Town- send, Mrs. H. T. Keen and Mrs. H. Toulmin. Baltimore is said to have won by playing king second hand, where king and one small card ts held and a small card is led. In the Brooklyn intercity tournament the Manhattans of New York city, short suiters, continue to lead all other teams, both in the number of points made and tricks tak- en. In the individual records, also, two of their team, namely, Messrs. Hawkins and Herriques, lead all others. The closing round will be played this evening. This evening the last of the series of compass whist contests will be held at the | Capital Bicycle Club. The arrangements followed in previous evenings will be de- parted from, and instead of the guests en- tering by pairs, and the members being chosen by lot, all pairs will be drawn by lot, suests and members taking their chances alike. A meeting of representatives of clubs de- siring to play another series of inter-club whist matches is called for this evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Capital Bicycle Club rooms. The Capital Bicycle Club are arranging for compass whist by mixed pairs on the 17th ultimo. to which they contemplate inviting their friends. The strongest organization of lady whist players in the District of Columbia is the National Whist Club of the Washington club, whose quarters are on I street be- tween 17th and 18th streets. The whist branch is composed of from forty to fifty payers. Tuesday evening last they enter- tained their gentlemen friends, and sur- prised them by the skill shown in playing the game. FIELD AND TRACK SPORTS. Preparing for Events to Be Held at Georgetown College. The field and track athletics of George-- town University are brightening up con- ciderably as the weather opens, and there is every indication that the athletes will be put through a good series of events be- fore the close of the scholastic year. In the matter of the field and track meet with Columbian University,which was first men- tioned in The Star several weeks ago, an understanding has,been reached. The meet will come off and the date has been fixed at May 9 This meet will be particularly interesting from the fact that the candi- dates will participate who will uphold the colors of both universities at the annual intercollegiate meet this year at Berkeley Oval. The list of events for the meet has not as yet been Gecided upon, and on ac- count of the abundance of time the events and the names of the contestants will prob- ably not be announced for sume time. In addition to this meet there will be the annual field meet of Georgetown Uni- versity. This year the Athletic Associa- tion will offer as a trophy a handsome sil- ver cup, which will go to the class making the best showing. This is a radical depart- ure from the course pursued in similar years and will tend to Increase the friendly rivalry which exists among the students. ‘These events will be held about the 16th of April, and the contestants will only be members of the gollege proper.
