DEEP run HUNT CLUE.
A stih Ride, but Lots of Fun and n Few
YALE for the Participants.

There were only fourteen mounts yes
to-day afternoon when the field lined up
a. Rio Vista. TO take part /. the regular
scmi-weckly meet Of the Deep Run Hunt
Club. Although the number was small.
the hunt was a thoroughly enjoyable one,
ald the two ladies in the party, Mrs.
Amelia Reeves and Mrs. ). III. Hancock,
set splendid example 10 their male com
panions as to thorough horsemanship.
Mr.. 5. Fl. Hancock. the master of hounds.
in lis old cast of course. played a con-
spicUous part in the hunt. and. as usual.
was the leading spirit, or ra,her leading
huntsnan. IN the afternoon sport.
When Rio Vista was the rendezvous the
last time, the hunt tarted down the
road into the valley, ard then branched
off into Mr.. Grants farm. Yesterday.
however. a different direction was taken
by the dogs. which. by the way, did
splendidly. The hunt started in north
westerly direction, and ii was very brisk
from beginning TO eni. Tie weather was
extreme hot and sultry, but that did
not prevent the friends Of genuine sport
TO ride and jump after their hearts con-
tent. The jumping was very difficult at
times, as might be seen from the feet
that of the twelve gentlemen in the field
four had falls. One OF them, in taking
a ditch. made a complete summersault
over his horses neck, but picked himself
up as If nothing had happened. Another
one, IN jumping a hurdle, was thrown
by his horse. twisting himself. without
injury, however, TO horse and rider. The
other two involuntary dismounts also
came off without any serious consequence.
The finish was again on Mr.. Hancock's
farm, and from there most or the men,
bers repaired to the clubhouse, where
light refreshments were served In the
usual manner.
The next meet OF the club Will take
place OF next Wednesday afternoon, and
the rendezvous will be at the Fair
Grounds at 3:l5 o'clock.
