CHESS.
At a committee meeting of the Athenseum Chess Club, held on Saturday night, it was resolved to have , another handicap tournament for the benefit of the third and fourth class players. This is a good idea, because it will stimulate the junior players to go in for practice. Entries will close: in about a fortnight. Members joiping the Club in the meantime will be entitled to compete. We aro pleaded to Ram that several additional members have joined 'the, Club since the .match with Auckland. Onr' players will, no doubt, have gained experience from the many mishaps which occurred in the late chess match, spoiling their chance of winning ; and we believe that, were another match to . take place, the result would be very different.
. Gentlemen who are desirous of joining the Club, by sending their names t6 Mr‘J. S. Archer, honorary secretary,' or leaving them with Mr Black, the librarian, will be duly attended to.
