An army of stable BOYS, ~ith siones
and club, made IN an Taught. Reynard
got up. They pclted him. He beg.n to
walk away. Hurr.h. His spirit was
conquered. He kept on walking very
cooily and collecteily till he reached the
edge Of the field. Here he stopped be-
fore the fence and seemed TO he deliber-
ating whether he should climb over or
let down the bars. lie settled it by
crawling under. Then be disappeared
10 little ravine. Presently he came in
sight again, toiling slowly up the side of
the steep hill. Ever and anon he paused
for breath.
"Guess he's going 'over the hills tn the
poorhOuse,'" said one of the stable boys.
At length he was hidden by the brow OF
the hill.
Here twenty five minutes elapsed to
give him what the hunters call decent
start.
"Time's up!' cried the master of the
chase.
Mr.. John J. Hughes had been appointed
to take the lead. He had 100 hounds.
He freed them, and away they went,
over the fences, through the ravine, over
the hill, aud Mr.. Hughes after them as
fast as his blooded horse could carry
him. There were about 800 of them, and
the dogs were beyond all counting. Away
they all went, like mad.
In exactly eight minutes from the
time Of starting the dogs stopped and
began to paw around hole in the
ground. Not dog would go another
step. The melancholy fact was only toJ
plain-she fox had found one Of his
haunts. and was lost to sight though to
memory still so dear. To pursue him
further would he folly, and the hunters
knew it, so they gave him up and started
for the hill in the hope of starting up
another victim.
While the hunters were flying DER hill
and dale, and the dogs were there thirst
ing for gore, the fox, all unconscious,
was picking over some Of last winters
shellbarks in his cosy nest. But they
were dry eating, and the unwonted exer-
else Of climbing the hill had given the
poor fellow an unusual appetite. He
evidently determined that he must have
q good, square meal. Where 80 likely to
get it rs ut the hospitable hotel where
he got good, tender chicken for supper
only last night2 So back he came sly'y,
as folks will, and slowly; but still he
came, and is chained up again to be ready
for another days sport.
