Tliere are four wells in the McDonald
and northwestern fields which are due to
day or Monday and on account of their loca
tions they should bring the production up
considerably. The production yesterday
fell off about l,r00 barrels. It was esti
mated at about 30,000 last night. In the
24 hours ending yesterday the 3Ievey No. 1
of Forst & Greenlee, put 7,000 barrels in
the pipe line and a few thousand were lost.
The production of this well fell oftoO barrels
an hour yesterday, and is now nutting out
about 400 barrels, or 10,000 gallons every GO

of ruinois regarding it jestcrday. One was
that it was completed and making 4 000

it would not get the llfth sand for sov oral

MOVING FOE BETTEE BUTTER.
An Organization Effected to Raise
the
Standard of the Makers.
Chicago, Oct. 2. Butter makers from
nearly every State in the Xorthwest are in
session here to-day. The meeting was
called for the purpose of forming an associ
ation. The main object of the association
is to raise the standard of butter makers
and thus raise the grade of butter.
It is expected to accomplish tliis object
by establishing an examining board and
making it necessary lor a butter maker to
p iss an examination and obtain a certificate
before he will be allowed to work in any
factory. This is only a preliminary mcct
insr, which will form a temporary organiza
tion and lay out the work for'a general
meeting to be held at Madison, "Wis., in the
winter.
A Good TlUng Is Appreciated.
This is demonstrated in the beer, ale and
porter manufactured by the Iron City Brew
ing Company. The ever increasing sales to
meet the'demand show that their brand is
most popular. People like a pure, healthy
drink and can get it in Pilsner. Telephone

SCORIXG SOLVER'S TOURXKYS.
(Contiibuted by II. l,rnst, Xew Orleans, La.)
The short tourney of Tub PiTTsncr.o Dis
rATCiiof 3Iay 1(1, with its rather unusual con
ditions, suggests this article. Xo handbook
on problems has, so far, mentioned tlie sub
ject, and still w o sco almost ev cry dav- nv-
auinius ui uimuwi: uonccpiions of the modes
of scoiing solvers contests, so that the sub
ject is well woith discussing.
The inalii point to which I w ish to call the
attention is tho introduction of marks for
duals, etc. Taking f. i. the above mentioned
tourney ns an example:
10 points for authors' solutions;
2 points for second solutions or'' cooks-"(?)
1 point for each dual or Uual mate- (')
1 point off for each missing v aiiation
Accpi-ding to these conditions, taken'with
ont disetetion, a solver who solved only
three pioblcins might, by close attention to
the duals, but missing entii ely the flv o other
solutions, havo reached uscoio ot about ISO
points, while n practical solver, concentrat
ing his labor on tlie possible keys, and giv
ing all tho eight keys and all tho variations
of the six problems, could only unite U
points. Is it logical, s it fair that the solver
of only thico pioblems should take the
piizo over the one w ho solved correctly tho
six compositions? hven with the conditions
ns above stated, vv ho would conscientiously
advocate such an award?
The misconception of tho conditionsllies
in the d'rect comparison of duals with solu
tions. Under the rules as givpn above thp
only correct intcrpietation was to divide
the scoring in two sections: llrstly, to con
sider the kej s and "cooks," and secondly, if
this primai v examination icsnlted in ties,
then to scoie the variations and, llnally, tho
duals. The loglc 0f this is eviaent. Second
solutions demolish tho problem, while no
amount of duals havo unv such power.
They diminish the value of tho composition,
hut cannot lender it unsound; they ate,
therefore, of only an inflnitesiiral import
ance as compared with keys. Anj one must
see that two whimsical dull-mates should,
under no circumstances count as much as a
complete second solution.
The Shcllleld JneZepenoVn, nndor the editor
ship of Mi. T. B. Rowland, lielil several solv
insr contests under the follow ing conditions:
Two points foi each koy.
One point for each ilunl, two for triplets,
thteofor quadruple and above. In case of
an unsound problem duals do not count.
j. no points lor proving a pioniom rouo
unsound or an impossible position.
One point oir for incorrect claims.
Heie, again, a quadruple amounts to more
than a complete solution. Because such
things hav e been practiced and accepted by
solvers (I havo myself contested in one of
thoso torn ncv s) that does not sanction them
anvmoie than the civilized woildnecopts
polygamy becauso Mormons and Mohamme
dans practice it.
Duals should never count unless the seoie
for keys (authors' or accidental) be so high
that the duals cannot overcome the odds.
Fiom experience I know that ICOforkcvs
nnd ono ror duals would give about an
equitable result, but why subject thotoui
nev conductor to snch an enormous amount
of labor when the division of the scoring
into piimary and secondary examination
gives a correct result in one-tenth ot the
time?
Therefoie, I would suggest the following
schedule for tourneys of somo length of
time:
Tw o points for two movcrs.for solutions or
proof of impossibility of solution.
Four points for three mov ers and upward,
foi solutions or proof of impossibility of
solution.
The distinction between these two classes
needs hai dly any explanation: ev ci y solver
must have lound in Ins practice that this is
the least diffeiencu in the lelative meiit be
tween two nnd thiee movcis, while above
that the diffei once is not so marked.
Of three mov ers, the main play and at least
tw o of the best variations ought to be svven.
For omission of the main play or llagrant
eriorsm this oranj or tho pnncipal vaiia
tions, the solution might be -uiitircly dis
qualified. Second solutions should count ns much as
the authors key, since they fulfill the condi-
iiims oi mo Diouicm just as wen.
Pioving a" position to be impossible in
actual plus, 2 points, nnd solutions in nnch
cases not to be ci edited. However, ifa key to
a 3 mover (4 and moie movers coirespond
inglv ) leads to mate in two mov cs, no mates
in 3 w ith tho same kev should count.
Wiong claims torfeit as many points as tho
collect claim would entitle to.
Under similar conditions, though not quito
so comprehensiv e, I have din ing my prac
tice not set-n many tics, except in exclusiv e
2 move tourncjs. In any case, piospcctivo
toui ney conductors enn nnply to the most
successmi tourney conductor, Jlr. If. D.
Peteison, 3Iilwaukee, for information how to
obtain tie-lneakcis; he always has a lull sup
ply of them on hand.
For shoit tourneys such as tho ono abovo
mentioned, containing only a small number
of problems and lcsulting in ties as faras
keys are concerned, tho conditions mightbo
slightly altered by lequiring all the varia
tions. For missing any of tho impoitant
vaiiations one point might be counted
against the solver; duals to count ono point,
triplets (i.e., three vvajs of cairyingon the
attack on second move) two points, etc. Of
course, w henevcr in a pioblem w bite's first
move constitutes a tlueat, and black, by not
attending to it, opens a dual ch, that counts
only loi one dual, no matter how often tho
move may lecui. If theicaie still ticslcft,
then dual mates (or in four mov eis tho sub
du lis) may be counted on a similar scale.
This is meiely intended to set the ball roll
ing Iu older to induce the gicat, shining
lights to tacklo tlie subject and lednce it to
somo rules, as has been done lor problems.
Lack of time and consideration of space for
bid a moie explicit lamruasrc. but a little
familiarity w ith chess tcims is picsupposed
fiom the leader.

REVIEW OF THE GREAT CHECKER
3IATCII FOR THE CIIAMPIO'VSHIP OF AMhltlCA.
by joSErn maize, -m'dotvlp, r.v.
James 1". Reed vs. C. F. Baiker, for a purso
of $1,000.
At 2 r. M., 3Ionday, September II, 1891, be
gan the most nr.poi tant checker match ever
airangcd for between Amciican checker
plajeis. The aiticles of agreement called
for a restricted match of 30 games, 15 open
ings, each player to play the blnckand white
side of the following openings: 9-13 (Edin
burgh 9-14 (double coiner), 10-14 (Denny),
10 15 (KeKo), 11-10 (Bristol), 12-16 (Duudee),
nnd in leply to 11-15 white must form
the following nine openings: "Ajishiro
Lassie," "Ciops." "Defiance," ' Lire,"
'Laird and Lady," "Second Double Coi ner,"
"sinclo Corner," "Switcher," and "Will 'O
the Wisp," tho openings to be placed in a
bag, and one drawn by each player alter
nately until all were drawn therofiom. Tho
w riter vv as the selection of both plaj ers for
the important ofiico of rereiee. Kecd won
tho toss for choice of men, and choosing
w lute became second player in all odd num
bered gnmes thioughout the match, and
of couiscllrst player in all tho even num
bered games.
The first game drawn wasn "Defiance," an
opening m w hich there is but little room for
onginal plaj-, and both playeis were content
to draw the opening on w ell-known lines of
"hnok -nlav ." tliH onlv- new develonlnenr. lin
ing a confirmation ot a general belief that
the match would be one of tactics as well as
ci oss board play. Reed would use the time
limit sons to confine the nlternoon play to
ono game, in order to get the benefit of
Baiker's lino for the evening session. Baiker
would not be hmriedin the evening game
so that Reed might not have thetidvantage
or an all-night study or his levelled line of
attack oi defense. Thus the games were
like sweetness long drawn out, and con-
nned to one gamo per sittmc. The second
day'" piny brought the Laird and Lady to
the fiont, in the afternoon game nothing
new was shown, a book draw resulting; but
lnthefouith game both playors seemed to
warm to their work, Barker abandoning his
old match play line (24 20 in reply to 15-18),
going 20-23, but after a few moves Reed met
nini with a move not' laid down in the
Dooks,"and a lino original end game le
sulted, Barker only securing the draw by a
narrow loophole.
TUB riFIII GAME.
Tho "Kelso" opening was drawn, and tho
experts present were on their tenter hooks
of expectation, looking forward to some lino
play. X'or weie they disappointed. Baiker
made a weak play at third movo of game.
Reed, noting the point, began the task of
pinning him fast, and as tho play progressed
gradually impiovcd his advantage, with
grim determination planting his men on tho
pioner squares until at the 32d mov e ofgaino
the follow ing position came up-
Wick (Hirker) 3, 5. 6. 9, 11, 15, 19. 21.
lllte (Itied)-I3, 11, 20, 22, 21, 28, JO, 31.
Reed to move and V the decisivo points
are JI 27, or i7-17; both seem to show uwin.
Reed, after looking at the position until tho
call of time, went31 27.
The lollowing is the position on diagram:
Black (Baikei ) 3, 5, 6, 7, 11, 15, 19, 21.
hite (Reed) is, 14, 20, 22, 21. 28, 30, 3L

After tho game Freeman leinarked that
Reed should have won by 22 17, forcing -10,
14 7, ilO, 30-2G, gaining a man and the game,
but 3!i.Birker demonstrated a draw bv
21-23, 31-27, 2.V 10, 27 2.1, 11-16, 20 11, 5-9, 23-1C, 3C123,

(a) Let The Dispatch solvers try some
thing else, 24-19 for instance, and see how
neatly it can be drawn.
(b) This is where Reed missed it, 24 19 at
this point wins the same.
This iramo took 3i honis to finish, Reed
forcing the play throughoutand missing the
win by a hail's bieadth. The sixth game
was an original "Kelso," Reed adopting 0 10
after the exchange to prevent 21-17, but
Baikei, adopting a nevvandheietofore un
considered lino or attick, soon foiced Kecd
into a contlncd situation. He had tho choice
of two moves. One looked good, but would
lose; the other looked weak, but would
draw. Reed failed to solve the position cor
rectly, and his last chance to draw the game
passed into the might have beensof the
past. Undernoted And the decisive point:
Black (Reed), I, 2. 3 5. 7, 10, 11, 12, 13. White,

(a) Reed missed the draw here, 2-C pre
vents 22-18. Any other moves, fi-9, 9-14, form
ing a well known single-corner end game
and an easy draw for black.
The seventh and eighth proved a yentablo
Waterloo for Reed.
A second doublo corner was the onening
and tho play ran on lines with which Kecd
was supposedly familiar, but Barker had a
new move in icadiness, and hero Is position
w here he sprung it:
Blick (liirker). 2, 3, 7, 1 14. 15. 21.
lllte (Itild), 5. 16, 21, 25, 2b, 27, 18.
Barker to move, and the play ran: 2-C, 2.V22,
(a) C-9, 5-1, 14-1S, l-r, 1S-23, 5-14, 25-30, 25-ii,

2S-24 at this point w ill draw, and I w ill main
tain this hy coirespondenco with anvone.
In the next game Reed secured a small ad
vantage in position, but not enough to foico
a win, so relaxing his grip after a number
of moves the following position came up.
Bced to plaj : Black, 5, 1 1: kin?, 15; white. 14;

keeping contiolof sqnaies 122 and 17 forces
a draw.
Xinth and 10th games were double corner
openings. In the ninth same the lollowing
neat position transpired: Black, 1, G, 7, 17,20;
white. n, 22. 21, SS. 31: white (Reed) to move;

In the 10th game 3lr. Reed introduced a
new line of piny, with black cramping Baik
ei 's game, and for a sciicsof a dozen moves
ormoiclclt Baiker but ono move to draw,
but the Uustern man got the decisive move
oveiy time, nnd finally diew. Hero is the
endmsrat the most interesting point: Black
(Reed). 1,. 1,7, 9 11,12, 14: white (Barker), S,

7-10, 21-17. 14-21, 22 17, 9-13, 2J-22, and Barker
finally drew by securing the exchange. 10-7,
3-10, etc., and having moves enough to get
aw av and no more.
Eleventh game, life, this ran on well
know n lines, Barker adopting tho3-S-Iino of
attack. Xothini new was developed, the
ending being similar to an end game pub
lished by Chas. Ilefter m the Turf some time
ago.
In the twelfth game Reed adopted the 2-6
Smith versus Barker, and at the following
point Reed blundered losing the game.
Black (Reed) 1.3 7,10, 11. 12. 14, 15: white,
B irker, 9, 19, 20, 21,23. 21, 28, 31. Reed to move
14-17, draws and how or w hy he went 15-18 is
of tho mysterious, which as "Dnndieary"
says, "Xo fellow can find out." He may have
fancied that the man on 23 would remain
there lifter 9-G and the subsequent changes
then 14-13 nnd win, else 19-15 and black wins.
Certainly he must have been laboring under
a confusion of ideas.
Tho second week's play began with tho
"Cross-' opening; tho tlmteeiith game was
devoid of noteworthy incident, the game
moving in confined lines, a book draw le
sulting. The fourteenth game produced tho
followine neat and instructive position:
Black (Reed). 1, 12, 17, king -23; white (Bar

Reed now l-uns his king into the donblo
corner and draws because Barker cinnot
force the single man from 13 to 21, forming
second position.
The fifteenth gamo was a single corner and
both playors soon got into unknown terri
tory, an original instructive and beautiful
end gamo being the result.

(a) 7-10 brings up a neat and critical lino
of p'ay. White must play carefully to se
cme the cov eted draw.
In tho sixteenth gaind Reed tried to forco
matteisat the outset, but Barker mot him
with a proper leply, forcing the game into a
well-known "Will-'o-the-Wisp" position,
forcing Reed to stick to published play and
a book draw icsnlted. The seventeenth
nnd eighteenth games weie "Bristol"
openings, the seventeenth game run

The eighteenth game resulted in a well
known book draw. Barker, seeing a chanco
to confine the play to st.ind.nd lines very
piomptly went for the "Knock-down Bris
tol." The nineteenth and twentieth cames
were Will O the Wisp openings. In the
nineteenth game Reed adopted: a line of
play not laid down in the standard works,
but Barker met it vvitn the proper reply,
eventually foicing tlie following neat draw:
Black, 2. 7, 11, 12. 13 17. White, 19, 22, 23, 23,

For the tw ent3"-first gime tho "Ayrshire

breaking away from all recognized authori
ties on tho opening, soon set up a problem
of surpassing beauty and interest.

CHAPTER OF HORRORS.
Terrible Consequences From local Treat
ments. Local treatments for catarrh are often,
even in the hands of skillful piivsicinns.pro
ductiv c or the most disastrous results, w hile
an irritntion in the head or throat may be
healed, the poisonous condition in the sys
tem is often extended to the Innss, terini
natingin consumption or some other fatal
disease. Even tlie mildest wash or injection
is of no nciinanenc benefit, and in 90 cases
out of 100 will either Increase the irritation
or cause a thickening or the membrane of
the nos3 and he id. Catarrh cannot be
cmed with local treatment. and this should
be legarded as not only useless, but exceed
ingly dangerous.
JIis.Ella B. Jlackintosh is tho wife of 3Ir.
Andrew 3Iackintosh, who is well known in
Allegheny, where they were for a long timo
engaged in tho grocery business. They now
live at 192 Fourth avenue, this city. Hear
her experience with local treatments over
her name and affidavit, which is but the ex
perience of many:
"To Whom It Jlay Concern:
"For the benefit of all sufferers from
catarrh I desire, through Dr. Grubbs and
the other physicians of the Catarrh and
Dyspepsia Institute, unsolicited, to briefly
describe my terrible sufferings from local
treatments. For nine jears I took both
local nnd internal treatments for catarrh
at a cost of J1.C0O with not a particle of
'Mn. Xelhe Ii. Jfackintmh, 191 rourth Aie.
lelief. I received local treatment? from
some of the most celebrated physicians and
specialists in the United States, living nt
Pittsburg, Jacksonville, 111.. Buffalo, X. Y.,
and St Louis, JIo. I used snuffs, inhalations,
atomizers, salv es, sprays, oil-, caustics in
fact even thing I could hear of. The suffer
mgl enduted was woiso than a thousand
deaths.
"One doctor painted my throat with a
medicine that nearly killed me. It atrected
my eyes, almost paralyzing them. 1 could
not see, and for a month from these local
treatments I took sinking spells, every day
going into an unconscious condition. For
an hour I would Iu as if dead. After legain
lng consciousness I felt so weak I could
scarcely move.
"Another doctor burned my throat with a
hotiion. I could hear tho scctbin? of my
flesh as tho iron burned into it. I begged
tho doctor to put me under chloroform to
save me from the pain. 3Iy iriends standing
by turned their faces to the wall to shield
them fiom the sickening sight. The last
doctor told mo I could not live over sis
months. -This was about a vcar ago. I final
ly decided to take no more local treatments,
tor I nreferied death to such siifferiuir. soon
after discontinuing the local treatments 1
began to steadily improve. I would not
again take local treatment for any consider
ation. "Jly sister, 3Ir. Stewart, of Altoona, had
catarrh, and, as I believ e, died from the ef
fects of local treatments. The medicines
used ate Into her throat and windpipe until
it was so raw and sore she eould hardly swal
low. For eight months she could not talk
above a whisper; she continued nsing the
local treatments, crowing worse all the timo
until she choked to death.
"A short time sineel began treatment with
Dr. Ginbbs and associates and am rapidly
imploring. I heartily recommend their
methods of treatment.
