Simultaneous Chess Games.

Last evening a party of chess players from the Chest and Whist Club, at the invitation of the Boston Chess Club, visited their rooms in Pemterton square, and tried their strength in simultaneous games against Mr. Prentis Cummings, one of the strongest of Boston's players.

The delegation consisted of S. W. Sturgis, R. D. Brown, F. M. Brown, F. W. Nicolls, H. A. Davis, R. S. Hale, O. Everett and F. Irwin. All were obliged to resign with the exception of F. M. Brown, who forced a very pretty mate on Mr. Cummings.

The evening was thoroughly enjoyed, and it is probable that Mr. Cummings will be a guest of the Chess and Whist Club one of its future meetings.
