THE wooDLEY HUNT cLUB's FOX HUNT.
At the eleventh hour the members Of the
Woodley Hunt Club have changed their minds
about hunting the fox in the vicinity Of old
Fairfax Court House, and instead have once
again selected the region around Marlboro.
Several times the Woodley boys have hunted
there, and in addition to having good luck on
the trail such generous hospitality was met with
that they have been tempted once more to par
take Of Maryland fox tail. The Fairfax people
have always been more than hoepitable to
them, but the bold hunters believe they
have almost cleared that place of foxes and
desire to win victories on newer fields.
About six Of the members started yes-
terday for Marlboro in order to have
all things ready by the time Of the grand
rival. As the Woodley hounds are kept most all
the year at Fairfax, and as it would be incon-
venient to transplant them temporarily at
Marlboro, one Of the duties Of those who left
yesterday will be to gather together all the
hounds obtIinable by tomorrow morning at
sunrise. The mass Of the hunters leave this
afternoon for the scene of the chase, and on
their arrival they will be provided with all
necessary accommodations. One of the boys
who brings forth sounds from bugle has been
notified to play at sunrise tomorrow, and those
whocannot Withstand his strains will be permit
ted to lie abed. All will be again in town by o.
m OIL Friday.

his company and fully repaid them for their
