NEW HAVEN MORNING JOURNAL AND SATURDAY JULY 71906 i 4 1 if CHESS, INSANITY, MORALS. OiB 0tS2'JOiV JREFIFiU) BT PILLSBURX'S DEATH. Does the Gams Make Its Blasters Mad? Previously Asked After Steinltz and Morphy Died Chens Flayer Emphat-ically Answer "So" Second Avenue Rooks. Dpes overdevotion to chess Impair the mental powers? The question had its suggestion In the death of Harry Nelson Pillsbury with clouded intellect, which was also the fate of the equally renowned masters. Steinltz and Mor phy.

The coincidences seem to be be yond a chance conjunction of events. especially as many more great chess players have become Insane or have died in want. At a reception in his honor given at the Manhattan Chess Club after he had won international laurels at Hastings, in 1895, Pillsbury referred to the popular notion concerning the effect of overindulgence in chess. Regarding a character in an anecdote he was tell Ing, Pillsbury said: "He thought as the world does Miat all chess players are crazy and I some times think him right." Pillsbury's thin, angular body was topped by an oddly, shaped, knobby head that gave the impression of mental power. "Here's an odd genius," a person would naturally think before he learned Pillsbury's Identity.

His eyes were of remarkable beauty. They were very dark and reflected the mixed pride and friendship that actu ated Pillsbury at the moment in manner to haunt one. Such eyes could hypnotize a wooden Indian. There was something uncanny about them, ana as Pillsbury the aside about craziness they seemed the mirrors of a mind di seased. He was only 23 and a prodigy of the game just then.

Chess has always been the recrea tion of the few, the minority who seek something beyond beer and skittles In their amusements, and the resorts that amateurs frequent in the metropolis are not many. The best known are three clubs, the Manhattan, Brooklyn and Harlem, and situated in the rooms of. restaurants or cafes on thg continental blocks of lower Second avenue, which those of foreign birth most af-, feet, are the Cosmopolitan, Boulevard, Metropolis, Rice and Hungarian clubs, The Rice Chess Club meets at one of the largest restauration on the avenue and is named for its patron, Isaac Rice, now in Europe on business of the Holland Submarine Company, of which he is president, He has conceived a gambit, or invented that, with the positive conclusions of a true chess enthusiast, he believes to mark an epoch in the game. He has spent a good deal of money in inducing masters to open with his gambit at tournaments and in prises for games to include it. The club is made up of believers in the brilliancy of the combanatlon and In him.

After several flittings, the Manhattan Chess Club has been for three years In rooms at Carnegie Hall. The suite is a peaceful oasis in the hurly burly of city doings, and from the quiet intent-ness of the members who sit over the pieces there in the afternoons and eve-ing's there is the suggestion of concentrated mental energy in the place that suggests a great consulting library. To corner an odd clubman waiting for a game and fire at htm point blank such an explosive, dynamitic sort of question seemed an invasion of club etiquette, but the one addressed, who proved to be a veteran of American chess, seemed to be very glad to discuss the insanity theory and to refute it. "It is not true that chess makes a master morbid or impairs the mind," said he. "Our personal information, and reseaches have caused us to lay the blame for Pillsbury's affliction to other causes.

"For instance, he would smoke ten or twelve of the very strongest cigars in an hour, at first only as a stimulus during a match, but afterward habitually. He was irregular in eating and had insomnia. "During the tournament at Cambridge Springs, in 1904, I know that Pill bury, after the day's cheSs, would play bridge until midnight, and on retiring to his would read and smoke until daylight. Such a disregard of nature's laws would break down an iron man. "Steinltz, too; lived an Irregular life.

He was a cripple and of a crabbed, morose disposition; besides, insanity was heredity in his family. "I knew poor Morphy well a nana-: some boy he was, and of a gentle na. ture. When at the height of his fame he fell in love with a belle of New Orleans, and when she rejected him for the reason that she could never marry a mere chess master, It broke his heart. He brooded and forsook chess living a melancholy life, that had its ending in insanity before he was 25.

"The moderation of chess if reflected in the worldly life of this trio of masters, would have probably prolonged their years of usefulness in the game and heightened their share of earthly happiness." There is an old painting of Paul Morphy on the wall of the clubrooms. It despicts a youth of unusual beauty, suggests earl plcters of Byron, but this resemblance may be heightened by the curling locks and loose collar. The veteran, while showing the curios, trophies and books of the club, reverted again to the theme: "Charles H. Stanley, British Vice-Consul at New York, was the best amateur of the day until the rise of Morphy I met him frequently and he was a person of delightful culture. Good Bargain That when one trades COFFEE and and all the old COFFEE AILS for health on POSTUM Ten day's trial proves.

usaBBBaoi "It seems hard that the many men eminent in professional and business Ufa who have had a hobby for chess should have to repel, as is frequently the case, the suspicion that the game taints the intellect. The fault rests, no doubt, In the prominence of the three masters whoh ave been unfortunate In this way, but the contributory causes have been overlooked. "It would be a violation of club privacy to tell the names of our regular players, but the list would include more than one man distinguished for mental powers. The late John R. Fellows was an active member, and District Attorney Jerome, before his election, played daily at the club." The chess Clubs of Second avenue are readily accessible to any visitor who is seeking a game.

As is said of certain poker rooms in the West, they are open games. The reasons is that chess players from all parts of the country on their visits to the metropolis always plan a visit to the internation re sorts and look forward to it as perhnps most enjoyable incident of a first trip to New York, The resident members are proud of their games and ready at all hours to give battle to a stranger, for fun or for money. The professional will not pJay except on a wager, but this is not the only game in which sucn a rule exists, At one cafe, over coffee and German cakes, the neighbor addressed entered into a spluttering and vigorous denial of the insanity suggestion- He capped the eulogy of the mental expertness of the present day players by a reference to some famous amateurs of the past. "It is not enough that Napoleon had always a chessboard with him on the great campaign?" this speaker asked. "Was not the game his solace at St.

Helena? Your philosopher Franklin was one of the greates chess amateurs his time. He was written that chess was an aid to him in the study of lang uages in this way: The stake with a friend was always that the loser should expound and explain a lesson in what ever language they were then studying together, the relaxation being a pleas ant aid to their linguistic advance ment." Buckle, the historian of civilization, was a master of chess. Travelling In Italy and Greece, It was his pleasure to mingle with the natives at the wino shops and to take on matches for small stakes with the most expert players. After the overcoming of a local champion, the professor would pocket the gains with much glee. The sons of those sunny climes who gather in the gaudily decorated con fectionery shops near Grand and Bax ter streets now play dominoes in prefer ence to chess; but Buckle, could he re turn from the shades to pay a sportive visit to Second avenue, could get action, as the sporting phrase goes, very quick ly in a chess match for money.

Should he leave a winner a tradition of the chess colony would be shatered. Among the reputable chess clubs and cafes of Second avenue are several in which the open games are not such as a stranger would be wise in joining. In one dingy place there are long haired and shabbily clad masters who will play for stakes of a nickel, and, should the game by any chance go against them, cheat in the most glaring way to gain the small sum that to them may mean a meal. There are establishments, too, of the ornate in fittings, where chess is played at the two or three tables nearest to the entrance, in full view of a passerby. The players are keen faced and dlspuay much jewelry, but matches between themselves are of a perfunv- tory sort.

They have always a watchful eye on the door and the longers at the other talbles, who become very intent on their papers when a stranger enters, suggest the cappers of a brace faro bank. Their occupation is, indeed, a similar one. The sightseer, manifestly, may not walk in boldly and announce that he wants a match at chess. Instead he wil.1 take a sent and order something, while taking a first look. TTow the quiet man, who bids him goodday in the foreign manner, or who passes the newspaper, is readily accept ed as a table acquaintance.

Very soon chess becomes the topic, and, if confident of his strength to one of the mast ers at a front table, but if he is modest or admits an inferior game, lo! by a fortunate chance the table acquaintance is a player of exactly the same class and a little side match is very soon ar ranged. Whether a bold or modest amateur, there is but one ending to the matches; the stranger has been welcomed and they take him in. At the better sort of clubs the games are fair and the visitors will meet with brilliant and de- llghful opponents. ne rooks of the avenue are far from being or unsouna mma but In the greed for gain one may not say as much for their moral srnse. The habit of playing for money, however, is as well established at the best clubs as in the shoddy cafes.

This aspect is treated In a matter of course way. "I have had a busy day," announced a caller as he greeted his friends at one of the best clubs. "Got over to Brooklyn at noon, sold $20,000 worth of goods before 2 o'clock and won $10 from Billy Pawn before 6 o'clock at the Brooklyn Chess Club." There are chess rooms at the New York Athetic Club and the Republican Club, and probably there "are chess players in every city club, although to keep a board and set of pieces is ample enought provision for their needs. The roaming of a non-player among the city haunts of chess players does not gather any testimony in support of the notion that the game tends toward insanity, but there was no attempt niRde to seek the views of alienists or other sppcialists. After chatting with many players these deductions took shape.

There are mannerisms in constant players of chess that may be grouped and formulated into divisions, but while generic tney are ty no means symptoms of insanity. Every game and sport brands certain tradesmarks on its votaries. One attribute of the chess players met with is an unusually keen eye and dilated pupil, especially in young men, and this characteristic is often as marked as in the yes of opium fiends. Alertness of mind, a certain Indolence that suggests the longing walk of the habitual dock fisherman, and an air of mental absorption, or rather of retrospection, are also traits. They are delighful persons to meet, but the non-player gain the Impression that those without the cult are not re.

garded highly by chess players. They chat pleasantly on commonplace; ex. ohange Ideas, experiences or stories; show profuse hospitality, as in invtta tions to luncheon, dinner, or to visit in the home circle, but are often selfish in small matters, as the omission to pass around a box of choice cigars, valued for one's own smoking. While keeping up their end with delightful politeness in general society there is always the sub-conscious in fiuence to be detected if one looks for it, the air of being for a time a dawler while more weighty matters are In ob-eyance. It is the same manner which is noted in the statesman un bending to talk commonplace, the business man who swings vast deals, the painter or actor who is a willing slave to his art.

Even more apparent in the the chess player is the childlike simplicity in words and the absence of self-consciousness of the religious zea lot, whose inner mind is forever dwell ing on the hidden life, the mysteries of the beyond. Chess is always with the playert. Yet iess is the recreation of many very successful business and profes sional men. To the point where chess ceases to be a recreation, and from a hobby becomes a dominant passion, the game is a tonic for the mind, a relaxa tion that gives additional strength to cope with the material aims of a career The transition may be subtle and enervating that makes the being subordinate to chess, yet that poverty has be fallen so masters is not an Indica tion that it has sapped their business or professional abilities. Instead, in more than one Instance, a competence has been boldly cast aside In devotion to the game and its fascinations.

This, if an unconscious act, would be to the world an insanity. To the masters it may have seemed a heroic act, even a martyrdom. The monetary rewards of professional ches are scant and more often to be won by the trickster than the pure en thusiast, who may hope to gain a com petence only by constant frugality. To seek to become a master by profession is to take vows of poverty, but has it not been ever so in art? Chess Is a fine game and there seems no need to sigh because some who have drained its joys have died poor. New York Sun.

SAYS NO CHANGE. J. C. Gallagher on Reported Raise of A. O.

U. W. Rates. Yesterday's Meriden Journal says: Recorder Theodore S. Penny, of Silver City lodge, A.

O. U. received a letter this morning from Supreme Overseer John Currier Gallagher, of New Haven, which will be of interest to all members of the order in Connecticut. It corrects the false impression contained In a dispatch that was sent out from Montreal Canada, the other day, while the supreme lodge was in session in that city, and which carried the idea that rates were to be Increased in this state. It caused much uneasiness among members here.

Mr. Gallagher's letter Is in reply to the invitation of the members the local lodge to visit them. He speaks of the fine meeting of the supreme lodge, and goes on to say that there will be no change of rates In Connecticut. "On the contrary, experience shows that the present rates are adequate," says Mr. Gallagher.

Overseer, Gallagher thinks that this fact should be encouraging to all members who have stood by the order. Mr. Gallagher will visit Silver City lodge a week from next Monday. TO CONDEMN LAND. C.

It is fascinating work discovering places around which, romance and mystery, in the passing of time, have woven and countless expeditions from the early ages upward have been despatched to find them, says Pearson's Weekly. El Dorado, the "Golden Land," now believed to be a legendary which existed only in the imagination of tho na tives of Mexico and Peru, who sought to get rid of their avaricious Spanish conquerors by telling them of a land of greater wealth and luxury than their has been tho grave of scores of brave soldiers of fortune and troops of adventurers. Manoa, the natives said, was the name of the golden city, and it was ruled by a king robed entirely In gold the annual custom of smearing their priest with oil and rolling him in gold dust, as practiced by a certain Indian tribe, doubtless supplying the inspira tion to tho Mexican llatlves. And so many expeditions penetrated into the heart of South America, down tho Amazon or Orinoco, and to the vast lake of Parlme, but few came back, and even those were greatly reduced in numbers, finding only arid de serts and starvation Instead of a land overflowing with "milk and honey."

During the ast century other bold adventurers, oath to bellevo that El Dorado never listed, have wasted their fortunes and Isked their lives In searching for it. Less than a year ago, Dr. Carl Pet- rs returned to England 'from his third expedition to the region of King Solomon's mines. To most people these mines have a legendary origin, but Dr.

Peters claims to have set his foot therein.

Peters in his book, "we found the old half-fabulous district of Fura again, with its and ent ruins which still showed plainly that they formed part of the old Semitic sphere of civilization. Around these ancient ruins, from which the figure of Baai looks down on us across thousands of years, lives the Makalanga nation, which, in its worship of the Kabulu Kagoro, has preserved the old Semitic natural religion until o-day. Here as thousands of years since, sacrifices are still made to Baal on the hills and heights, and fire worship Is gtill practiced. Simultaneously the mining of the precious motul has gone on hero from the time of the ancient pioneers, and still continues." No explorer nowadays thinks of starching lor Atlantis, the vast island supposed to be somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, but many expeditions In ancient times set out to discover It. Some have thought that the Canary islands are the remains of the sunken continent.

An Egyptain priest, issa Id toh ave told Solon of Its existence, lying pillars of Hercules in the ocean, and larger than Sllbya and Asia Minor together. The legend of Atlantis runs that it was engulfed by the waves through an earthquake at the close of a long contest which its inhabitants maintained against the Atlantians. For more than six centuries the "Homo of Gold," the land of the Azters of Mexico, was as much a mystery as lost Atlantis, but that such a place actually existed was proved in 1900. Somewhere so ran the story among the fastnesses of the Sierra Madre is a wonderful valley, small, Inclosed In high, rocky walls; it can be reached by but a slnglo subterranean passage the entrance to which has often been sought, but never found. It is watered by a broad river, and In it are thou sands of birds of the most beautiful plumage, exquisite flowers, stately trees- A ledge of pure gold, thirty feet wide, crosses it tnd glistens in the sun Ilka a great golden belt.

The stream runs over this ledge, swirling over and murmuring around blocks of the precious yellow metal as others do among pebbles. All this was long bcllevod to be an Indian legend pure and simple. In the summer of 1900, however, a party of gold seekers stumbled accidentally upon the valley in question. There could be no doubt about it. There were the passage, the lofty precipices, the river and tho broad ledge of glistening metal, only, unfortunately for tho adventurers, the latter proved not to be gold at all, but Iron pyrites, i Even the Garden of Eden has been discovered.

The location of the "Cradle of the Human Race," as it has been called, had been a standing puzzle with geographers for ages past, until It was accidentnlly discovered by Sir H. W. Seton Karr, the well known traveller and big game hunter. It was in his fifth expedition to So-maliland, while engaged one day in tracking lions, that the explorer made his momentous discovery. Ho had reached a long, low hill, about 100 miles I from the coast, in a southwesterly direction from Borbera, the western face of the hill forming the right bank of the Issutugan.

Sir Henry Seton-Karr had taken four days to march hero with his attendants and camels from Bulbar, his point of disembarkation. Tpion renchlng the summit of the hill which commanded a magnificent view of the country on every side, the traveler saw that It was surounded by four rivers as in Genesis description of the Garden of Eden. Not only did the de-s' riptlon tally, but the climate and physical conditions wore in complete accord with the whole volume of scientific speculation on the subject. In his geological examination of the hill Sir Henry Reton-Karr discovered si vera.l flints, which Lord Avebury, Sir John Evans, Prof. Gladstone and others hive pronounced to be the most an-eient yet discovered.

Indeed, sufficient reasons were deduced to satisfy geo-grapheers and scientitlsts that at last the garden In which Adam and Eve lived their life had actually been located. OLD CONDUCTOR ILL.
