Wahpanseh Whist and Chess Club

The Wahpanseh Whist and Chess Club was founded in 1889 in what is now Douglas, on the South Side, "to develop and perfect the game of American Whist, and instruct its members in the science thereof; [and] to study chess and kindred scientific games." Its quarters were at 34th Street and Cottage Grove Avenue. It was still in existence in 1899.
