In the semi-final of the last Lanarkshire Championship Tourney (which was won by G-. M Bonar), Messrs Inglis and Dickson had; an interesting round. In their second game (says the Glasgow Herald) Inglis started % " Whilter," which was conducted on wellknown lines till near the finish, when Dicks.ort came away with some nice play, and got into the following position: — Black man on 12> Kings 27, 29. White Kings on 13, 19, 30. White to play A similar ending occurred in a game between Brown and M'Kelvie in 1901 Scottish Tourney, when M'Kelvie got throughr on that occasion with a draw. Mr C. Brown, aLd Mr A. Inglis pointed out a win foi White* Dickeon played as follows: — 18 22, 27 32, 19 24, 12 16, 24 20, 16 19, 20 16, 19 24, 22 26, 24 27^Drawn. Messrs Brown and Inglis gave the following play to win: — 18 22, 27 32, 19 24, 12 16, 22 26, 32 28, 24 20, 16 19, 20 24— White wins. It is very strange that Mr C Brown was a spectator on both occasions when this position, cropped up.
A well-known gentleman in connection with; the game in Manchester has presented Mr John Hynd, jun., with a beautiful gold medal on -winning the Lancashire Draughts Cham.'> piorship.
