SPEED OF ANIMALS.
The Greyhound Leads the Van, Followed
by the Horse and the Red Deer.

The Greyhound Leads the Van, Followed
by the Horse and the Red Deer.
Tho following interesting letter con-
corning tho relative speed of animals ap-
peared In q late issue of tho London Field {:
Tho fastest animal we have is the grey
hound. The next arc tho race horse, the
red deer and tho hare, and then comes the
good, big, bold dog fox, which is fine
galloper on good going. In comparison
with my of tho above the fastest foxhound
on sound fiat turf is as slow Us o man
moving grass for haymaking. But if you
radically alter the trial ground the above
docs not hold good. For instance, on
rough clods, whether melted or not, a haro
cannot run at all; hence she generally
takes caro- not to 60 there, and where
groyhounds arc kept she habitually lies In
hor form near the fringe of rough fallow,
that when coursod she may quickly bo on
good going. With such long, powerful
hind logs haro can beat anything up
steep HILL foxbound can easily beat
any horse over deep clay pillow because tho
horse weighs rs much rs 10 hounds, and
therefore sinks deeply. In stag hunting
the rod deer tires earlier than tho blood
hunter, though tho horse may not DO fast
err, but great consideration must be made
for tho discretion of good horsoman, who
avoids exhausting deep ground, which tho
deer plods through.
A run of eight miles within the hour in
either Of tho three wet wintry months
would leave tho body of the field behind,
but it would DO easy to riding man on n
galloping horse when tho March winds
havo dried tho country, and tho obstacles
arc only ordinary. Tho paco of q run in
the shircs or tho grassy valo of Aylcebury
is generally much greater than in any
pillow country, even tho brilliant Fitzwil-
liam.

In tho Garfield Hancock campaign

this State. 4 number of distinguished
Democratic speakers were there, and
wo had day of it, The writer was then
II small child, but one of the speakers
mado very profound impression upon
his mind. Tho speaker was no other
than Champ Clark.
No ono asks now, "Who was Champ
Clarke but then he was new star in
the armament.
Wehad number of speeches, and the
children were very tired. can't speak
for the grown people. because the good
| Democrats there would not have owned
to being tired, know, after such dis
play of eloquence from their great party
| leaders. AT any rate I was tired, but my
mother whispered:
There is only one moro speech, Z"
and was much relieved. A blond young
man was introduced as Champ Clark of
Pike county. Ho came forward with a
| pleasant face and manner that ut once
attracted my attention. He began in
this way:
II am reminded of the boy who kill
] ed n possum and expected to onioy n
postum dinner the next day. The fam
| lily was about to sit down to tho dinner
table when n wagon drove up and u
neighbours family came in. The head
of the house announced that the visitors
had come to dinner. There was no room
at the table for our young friend, the
sportman, and he waited, with his eyes
anxiously fixed on the dish Of postum.
The guests had good appetites. Finally
there was only ono piece of possum
left, and one of his own family took
that. Then tho possum lover busted
right out a-crying. The disappointment
was too much for him.
My friends" continued Mr.. Clark.
Il am in that same condition. When
heard the first speech, thought, we'll
that is pretty bad, but still have some
thing left to say. Then there came tho
