Hantaan Win A grain The Pinehurst neighborhood in con gress assembled in bright array at the race track Wednesday last were rewarded by the most dramatic running event seen this many a day in the Carolina circuit. The fame of it had gone abroad on the wings of Rumor; Little Boy Black, non plus ultra, was to ride his famous fleet footed Newfoundland Bull, Bashan, pride of the Sandhills, in final encounter against the one and only Shetland Mule in all Christendom, Pegasus, with Romu- uls up, for high stakes and the champion ship of Elysian pastures. Not since Nero, of happy memory, wit nessed from his marble box the unequal Pegasus! Thy time is up. But alasT the unconquered mule is lost among his fellow citizens; all sense of the direction of the goal is gone. He travels with great and amazing speed, but his course is in a circle, useless for trophies. At last the derisive taunts of Little Boy Bue, paddl ing steadily into the distance, makes clear the route, and the necessity. But Pega sus has lost his art. The majestic pace known to victory has given place to the gait and movement of the fiddler crab. All the world marvels to see such burst of speed sidewise. It is wonderful for sidewise. And so, waltzing in 2.10 the Shetland Mule loses by a hair to the unbeaten Bull, for the Glory of the Day. Ilougrh Hiding- GainM George Leach, master of fox hounds, and Mrs. Leach, omnipresent in the sad dle, have led forth such ever increasing cavalcades to the games and the hunts, and pienicing under the distant pin groves, that Donald Boss may well look to his laurels, and make smooth his fair ways and billiard like his greens, that the multitude may not all leave the links for the bridle paths. ft & jr.fV! a o - I jz-, loiter & -i- - - s . .ST i THE SANDHILL HUNT The Weymouth Drag Hounds.

This was no mere race, no ordinary banal test of speed. It was a battle of wits, a manoevering on a check erboard, a grand strategem. All the world knew that the Shetland Mule had the legs, but the wise ones put their salary on the guile and cuninng of Little Boy Black of many devices. They are off, the donkey's breed with disdainful pride bounding away into a distant lead. But see the guile of the steady-moving bull. Such speed upsets the mind, and the memory. Once lost to view Romulus forgets the danger of pursuit, his mount scents the new mown hay and the green pastures, and they linger on the wayside in esctatic revery. Meantime the bovine fox trot has eaten up the distance, and at the three-quarter mark a hardened populace greet the dead heat with unfeel ing laughter. Awake Romulus, speed on It were all but superfluous, to write of the riding meet on the polo field last Monday. For those who did not do the snake dance horse back themselves were there en masse to see, and riders in gay costume were as common a sight as in a cavalry camp. And for hours afterwards people smiled and were pleased to see heralds and maids at arms, coutiers and ladies-in-waiting clad in bright colors and ancient costume riding merrily through the lanes about the town. H. E. Slayton, Bob Elgart and P. N. Davison were the judges of the events, the first of which was the snake trail, a ride familiar to those living on the Mexi can border. In and out in ticklish progress the skillful riders piloted their willing horses, in eager competition to see who least brushed down the stockade. And this feat went to the credit of Miss Grace Crow of Rye with Miss Constance Greening a close second.
