forest, and then, suddenly we were in
the midst of the tumult again.
What a sight it was to see the pack
coming down an old road, splendidly
bunched, running like the wind and bay
ing like mad! What music! Roxy's
shrill cry, Ruth's musical voice and
John's deep bellow rising above, at
times, at others, blending in with the
pack! Music, I say! Yes; but if the
demons of hell had been let loose after
an escaped shade they could not have
been more blood-thirsty or relentless.
But it was music to the hunters' ears.
A moment only, and thev had passed
and our frantic horses were close upon
their heels. On down the road we thun
dered, then over a fence and along a
wooded ravine ; past it, across a bit of
low land, over a creek and up a steep hill
side we went.
What a wild race: How the blood
thrilled as the baying of the dogs be
came more and more frantic, as the ex
citement became more intense !
A moment later, the hounds were in a
dense cover, littered with fallen trees
which were overgrown with vines and
runners. Try as we would we could
not enter. Round and round went the
pack, now hot in pursuit, now uncertain.
We stood outside listening. Suddenly, a
small dark object darted from the woods
some distance off and started across the
hill for a grove of pines, not far distant.
In a second, my friend was in full pur
suit, but keeping to one side aud off the
trail, as he gave the sight halloo. At first
there was no response. The dogs were
working away on the maze. Once more
the call rang out. The baying ceased
ind as the call sounded again every
hound broke cover and dashed across the
hillside. The dogs picked the hot trail
up instantly, and, in a few minutes, it
seemed that the pandemonium must split
the tree trunks.
In we dashed. Round and round
went the pack, close upon the fast fail
ing fox. I became mad with the enthu
siasm of the moment. I forgot my
friend's existence, darting here and
there as my fancy dictated, now close up
with the hounds, now some distance
away, seeing the fox several times, con
fident that every double was his last.
Then the music suddenly rose to a roar,
a howl of fiendish glee, a scream of tri
umph, and, before I knew it, I found
my horse in the midst of the pack, which
was running at sight, straining everv
nerve. A few rods ahead, I could see
the fox, his tongue out, his muscles
knotted, running with death frenzy.
Suddenly, he turned sharply, braced
himself, showed his teeth and sprang foi
the foremost hound.
A moment later, the whole pack was
upon him, tearing him limb from limb.
And, then, suddenly, I saw my friend's
form in the midst of the howling, seeth
ing mass. He pulled the quivering ani
mal from the dogs and drove them off
with a heavy whip. "Too bad, sir" he
gasped, as he threw the carcass across
his saddle. "He was a game one and
deserved to live."
Then, while he "blew in" the dogs,
which were all there, and as the waver
ing notes echoed and reechoed through
out the woods, telling the people for
miles around that the race was won.
I threw myself from my horse, patted
him fondly and fed him a bunch of dried
grass, that I pulled from beneath a birch
close by. He rubbed his nose affection
ately against my coat sleeve and we
were fast friends ! Herbert L. Jillson in

Foxes are plentiful in the vicinity of
Pinehurst and hounds and saddle horses
are available for fox hunting. The
country is ideal for cross country riding,
being open and free from obstructions.
This sport has not been generally in
dulged in here, but it is becoming more
popular each year.
IMPROVEMENT ON NATURE !
( Continued from first page)
before. Mr. Lyons comes to Pinehurst
after several years in the employ of W.
W. Rawson of Arlington, one of the
prominent market gardeners of the
country.
The visible results of the Market Gar
den have been evident at the hotels in
the Pinehurst System for some weeks.
First of all have been the delicious
"White Spine" cucumbers, which have
been served in abundant quantities.
Lettuce, radishes and spinnach have also
been supplied in quantities far beyond
the demand, together with parsley and
other garnishes.
The present equipment of the market
garden consists of two greenhouses, 1G0
x 20 feet, and numerous out-door hot
beds, but for an enlargement which will
almost double the capacity are under
way, and with this change will come a
branching out, and tomatoes, strawber
ries, mint, cress, cauliflower, mushrooms
and many other delicacies, that are par
ticularly delicious in winter time are
possibilities of the near future.
Further extension is proposed in the
growing of vegetables during the sum
mer season, for consumption during the
coming winter, such as beets, carrots,
parsnips, squash, onions, turnips, cab
bages and the like.
A visit to the Market Garden cannot
fail to interest those unfamiliar with the
process, and to whet our appetite for the
goods things found here. It is besides
quite a novel experience to roast in the
cucumber house at ninety and then cool
off in the lettuce house at GO, and then to
enjoy the out of doors air while the hot
beds are examined.
