DRAUGHTS.
DOMINION TOURNAMENT. (TBISS ASSOCIATION TUtSOBMO " INVERCARGILL, April 22. The New Zealand draughts tournament was continued to-day. Two of the shortest games in the tourney were played between Boreham, and Botting, the last one being over in about fifteen minutes. The veteran set a neat trap which Botting, thinking he was gaining an advantage, snapped at. The trap was a two for two into the crown, but the trouble was that it left a three for two back into the other crown head, and the game was practically finished. 'Th© j results* of' the play to date are as
