TIE sporting season has opened in dead
earnest The national game has begun
to assume its regular place in the news
paper columns. The New York Gun
Club was out on Saturday. The racing
season begins in New Orleans to-day, and
the New York and Tarrytown Coach
"Tantivy" made its first trip over the
route and back on Saturday. This route
is to be worked daily during the season,
and the pleasure of the trip may be i'm
agined when it is remembered that the
legendary and picturesque scenery en-
braces the following points: The Pali-
sades, Ramapo Mountains, Hudson High
lands, the Valley of Sleepy Hollow, the
spot where Andre was captured, the
bridge, or its successor, over which the
headless horseman pursued Ichabod
Crane, Irvington, Sunnyside, and many
other interesting and beautiful spots.
