<We are indebted to Dr. E. Lasker for the following excellent game, which he played in a simultaneous exhibitiion in the Mercantile Library, Philadelphia. It is quite clear that the champion is determined from the outset that the game shall be interesting both to players and to spectators. Other players who set themselves out to give similar exhibitions should understand that a good score is not the only thing to be aimed at. The onus of making a simultaneous exhibition interesting rests on the individual player, and usually the surest way of providing entertainment is by taking real live risks instead of setting "book traps" to unwary players and winning dull games by superior force with mechanical accuracy.>

We'll go to the original source, as is our wont:

It's from <Saturday Review (Oct 7, 1905)>, and contains this quote:

<Mr. Lawrence calls it

<"a short-sighted policy, which we trust will not obtain in similar contests in the future, for unless the chess public is enabled to play over games while the interest is still warm, it will be found that not only interest but the necessary material support will be lacking".>

I don't know who this <Mr. Lawrence> is, but his opinion might be sought if he were the publications chess columnist, one might think.

Thomas Lawrence ran a rival column in the <People>. The <Saturday Review> quotes him in order to critique him: < Mr Lawrence calls it “a short-sighted policy, which we trust will not obtain in similar contests in the future, for unless the chess public is enabled to play over games while the interest is still warm, it will be found that not only interest but the necessary material support will be lacking”. The implication that chess masters are men of fortune and that by these tactics they will kill their goose is surely unconsidered and inadequate.>

It does show, of course, that Lasker was familiar the <Review> column, if not the columnist.

<<Missy> you noted the chess column began in 1905. Did you attempt to find any announcement of the new column? Or peruse the initial column looking for hints?>

It was announced in the February 25th 1905 number:

Presently we (i.e. <CG>) know him only as <H. Rosenbaum>, but that's likely to change very soon.

H Rosenbaum

He is noted as playing in the London chess 1905-6 season, leaving for the USA in the summer - matching the early run of the chess columns of the <Saturday Review>?

(What is the full history of the column? And can <Missy> or other find evidence of H. leaving in late 1906?)

Here's the basis of the above:
