Nothing has s.i interested me for the past few yen- ...i the Fox Hunting Department of the Amer-ican I'll''. 1 have often been on the poinl of venturing a little ►ketch of mr own experience, but it has been SO different from that of anyone else who has yet written on the subject thai even now I dread to expose it. My fondness for hunting the wily fox was handed down from my gnat grandfather, and from the time I could sit a horse till my twentieth year 1 had weekly oppor-tunities for indulging the taste. At that age, however, I left the farm for more lucrative fields, and far live or six years the music of the mellow-tongued pack delighted my cars only in dreams. Then I came to a sudden resolution that life was not worth living without the royal sporl and at once began preparations for a kennel. Hearing of three grand fox-hounds iii the Western portion of the Slate could be bought for fif-teen dollars, I immediately sent the amount and the Crst express brought the dog-. The next thing in the natural course of events was to give them a trial. In the mean-time 1 collected several friends of congenial taste on the comers »f the square and bored them for hours with accounts of how lirave and Cal had led some famous pack the week before, and how old Flight had jumped a red on the head of Swannanoa in the earlv morning, and by her lone self had run down and caught his toxship lute in the afternoon, near Craggy Mountain— sonic twenty miles away—and had been brought back by a man who happened to be in that section salt-ing his cattle. In suppsrtof these facts i; was always necessary to read letters from various parties who had combined on me to influ-ence a sale of these canine flyers. Alter so much eloquence and so many testimonials of high charac-ter, all were anxious to see the first performance. After a gond deal of talking, all details were finally settled that we would go the next morning to Gus Voss", and join him in a hunt, .lust here one of my fellow sports-men, King, who had also entered upon the business of getting up u pack, ventured in a cautious way to ask if mv new dogs were well bro-ken. Broken! 1 should say they were. I drew another epistle from my pocket and read: "If cither one of these dogs ever opens on any track but a fox's shoot him on the spot, notify me and I will refund the money." He seemed satisfied and warned mo tn meet him and Nelson, promptly, ■« 2 o'clock the next morning. It may not be out of place to remark, just here, that Nelson is somewhat of a foxhunter himself. Tjbougb a quiet man. of .-, few words, he immediately teok me aside, secured an interest in the new dogs, and succeded in get-ting an iron-hound agreement that we were to get up the pack togeth-er and all future purchases were t„ be owned mutually. Then we went around and took another look the dogs, bragging all the time on the way we were going to clean up King, "Voss and all others who should happen to'get into the race the next day. 1'he weary hours wore on and finally night came I boarded at the time with a good old lady who had a house filled With boarders. Mv wife, to ray surprise and delight, showed a great inter-est in every detail of the proposed bunt, and suggested that 1 take my saddle, bridle, spurs and lunch up in our room, so that 1 could get up and get out without disturbing any body. i turned in at nine to get a .

It was useless to fol-low the pack, unless I knew that Jim had passed that point before I reached it, for all but him had been after that fox bef irt and could not possibly catch it.

Nothing has s.i interested me for
the past few yen- ...i the Fox
Hunting Department of the Amer-ican
I'll''. 1 have often been on
the poinl of venturing a little
►ketch of mr own experience, but
it has been SO different from that
of anyone else who has yet written
on the subject thai even now I
dread to expose it.
My fondness for hunting the
wily fox was handed down from my
gnat grandfather, and from the
time I could sit a horse till my
twentieth year 1 had weekly oppor-tunities
for indulging the taste.
At that age, however, I left the
farm for more lucrative fields, and
far live or six years the music of
the mellow-tongued pack delighted
my cars only in dreams. Then I
came to a sudden resolution that
life was not worth living without
the royal sporl and at once began
preparations for a kennel.
Hearing of three grand fox-hounds
iii the Western portion of
the Slate could be bought for fif-teen
dollars, I immediately sent the
amount and the Crst express
brought the dog-. The next thing
in the natural course of events was
to give them a trial. In the mean-time
1 collected several friends of
congenial taste on the comers »f
the square and bored them for
hours with accounts of how lirave
and Cal had led some famous pack
the week before, and how old Flight
had jumped a red on the head of
Swannanoa in the earlv morning,
and by her lone self had run down
and caught his toxship lute in the
afternoon, near Craggy Mountain—
sonic twenty miles away—and had
been brought back by a man who
happened to be in that section salt-ing
his cattle. In suppsrtof these
facts i; was always necessary to
read letters from various parties
who had combined on me to influ-ence
a sale of these canine flyers.
Alter so much eloquence and so
many testimonials of high charac-ter,
all were anxious to see the first
performance.
After a gond deal of talking, all
details were finally settled that we
would go the next morning to Gus
Voss", and join him in a hunt,
.lust here one of my fellow sports-men,
King, who had also entered
upon the business of getting up u
pack, ventured in a cautious way to
ask if mv new dogs were well bro-ken.
Broken! 1 should say they
were. I drew another epistle from
my pocket and read:
"If cither one of these dogs ever
opens on any track but a fox's shoot
him on the spot, notify me and I
will refund the money."
He seemed satisfied and warned
mo tn meet him and Nelson,
promptly, ■« 2 o'clock the next
morning. It may not be out of
place to remark, just here, that
Nelson is somewhat of a foxhunter
himself. Tjbougb a quiet man. of
.-, few words, he immediately teok
me aside, secured an interest in
the new dogs, and succeded in get-ting
an iron-hound agreement that
we were to get up the pack togeth-er
