REWARDS HASTY CHASE.
A Middle Ground Road Fox Ran
Well Into the City.

The Chatham Hunt Club had an ex-
citing fox chase yesterday on the Mid
die Ground road. Reynard did some
of the cleverest footwork within the
experience of old hunters. He got up be-
fore the hounds early in the morning,
and led them a round about chase as
fast as the wind. The dogs were eager
for him and ran to kill. He swung
them in a sharp curve here, doubled
on them there, and ran in a Decline
through all sorts of country, but could
not break away from the dogs After
an hours hard running he put his nose
against the wind and ran into town.
The hounds followed right along hot,
mined to put Reynard under some cit1-
zen's carriage house, but after more
than a half hours hard trying lost.
The clubs new dogs are proving the
fastest and best all around dogs seen
in this section. The pack numbers
something over twenty-five dogs.
TIL f1reside hunt will be held at the
De Soto Nov 20. These are interesting
meets. Many good stories are told and
every good fox hunter in this section
always enjoys them.
At the next meeting the election for
officers will be held and a number of
new members will De received. The
present officers of the club are:
President-Paul T. Haskell.
Vice President-Ben B. Neal.

cigar.
But when Barrymore handed back
the perfecto the owner flung it away.
Out came Barrymore's cigar case.
"Take one of mine," he said, with a
tone to the Invitation which made an
order of it. The stranger hesitated and
took the cigar.
"I.et me offer you a light" AIDED Bar

other.
Upon regaining his cigar, Barrymore,

Goldsmith's Generosity.

A beggar once asked aims Of Oliver
Goldsmith as he walked with a friend
up Fleet street, and he gave her
shilling. His companion, knowing
something of the woman, censured the
writer for his excess of humanity, say
ing that the shilling was misapplied,
as she would spend it for liquor. "If
it makes her happy in any way, my
end is answered" replied Goldsmith.
Another proof that the doctors gem
erosity was not always regulated by
discretion was at time when, after
much delay, a day was fixed to pay the
forty pounds due his tailor Goldsmith
procured the money, but friend call
ing upon him and relating piteous
tale of his goods being seized for rent
the thoughtless but benevolent author
gave him all the money. The tailor
called and was told that If he had
come little sooner he could have had
the money, but that he had just parted
with every shilling of it to a friend in
distress, adding: .I would have been
an unfeeling monster not to have re-
lieved trouble when in my power"

For His Country,

Lord R, who had many good quail
tiles, and even learning, had a strong
desire of being thought skillful in ply
sic, and was very expert in bleeding.
Lord Chesterfield, who knew his fol-
BILE and wished on a certain occasion
to have his vote, went to him one
morning and after having conversed on
Indifferent matters, complained of a
headache and desired his lordship to
feel his pulse. It was found to beat
high and hint Of bleeding was thrown
out. 81 have no objection and as l
hear your lordship has a mastery

your lancet upon me?" said the tact
full and polite Chesterfield. After the
operation he said: by the way, do
you go to the house to-day?"-
.I did not intend to go, not being
sufficiently Informed of the question to
be debated" answered the impromptu
physician. (Which side will you be
of?
Lord Chesterfield, having gained his
confidence, easily directed his judg-
ment; he took him to the house and
got him to vote as he pleased He af-
forwards said that few of his friends
had done as much as he, having liter
ally bled for the good of his country

the background of philosophical opin-
ion concerning cause and sequence.
During the last decade or two the in
vestigators themselves, with scarce an
exception, have gone one step farther
and now include sequence of develop
ment from lower to higher forms as
among the commonplaces of opinion,
whatsoever the background of meta.
physical notion as to cause There the
strictly biologic aspect of the ques-
tion as to mans place in nature may
safely be considered to rest.
The chief advances in anthrnpoIogy
have related to what men do and what
men think, and the progress has been
such as to indicate with fairly satis-
factory clearness the natural history
of human thinking, as well as that of
human doing. AS is shown by the
latest researches, the mental workings
of the human are analogous with those
of the lower animals, while the range
from the instinct and budding reason
of higher animals to the thinking of
lowest man would seem far less than
that separating the beast-fearing saw
age from the scientist and statesman
In short, the evident tendency of the
science of anthropology is, according
to Prof. McGee, toward the establish,
ment of mental as well as physi.
cal evolution of man from a prototype
of lower rank in the animal kingdom.

American ways in Jamaica.

When you arrive at your hotel in
Kingston, Jamaica-and here it may be
remarked that the town contains but
one hotel worthy of the name-you are
at once made aware that the establish
ment is conducted ION the American
plan," says a correspondent In the
London Daily Mail. The guide book
says so, and the inevitable iced water
confirms the statement. Outside, on
Harbor street, the fine system of cleo
trio trans makes you as an English
man blush to the hat brim. Call a
+" 'bus"-it is buggy of the American
pattern-and drive to the railway sta
tion, and once more the handiwork
and enterprise of the Americans are
in evidence, for the engine is of United
States design and the ears are of the
same make. One is therefore not sur
prised to learn that an American start
ed the railway business in Jamaica
and eventually sold out at a handsome
figure to the government of the colony.

NOVEL ACCIDENT in COURT.

One of the Most Extraordinary Eam-
age Cases in Judicial Annals.
A suit in the Superior Court in Ra-
leigh, N. c., against the Seaboard Air
Line Railway has brought to light the
most novel accident known to the an
nails of jurisprudence.
The yestibule passenger train from
Atlanta was bowling along toward Ra=
leigh on a down grade at the rate Of
fifty miles pei hour at 10 o'clock in the
morning William Watlington was on
his way to a wild turkey blind, which
he has baited, and had his double
barreled, breech-loading shotgun on his
shoulder, two cartridges being in the
chambers. On reaching the railroad
track, which was on an embankment
about ten feet high at this place, Mr.
Watlington heard the train in the dis
tance and stopped on the side of the
track about fifty feet away to view the
train as it swept by. He could not
see over the embankment on the other
side Of the track. Along beside the
embankment on both sides of the track
there are the usual bitches, which were
filled with water. Mr.. Warrington
was standing between the embankment
and one of these bitches on the north
side of the track with his gun on his
right shoulder. On the other side of
the track were number of cattle nip
ping grass, which Mr.. Warrington could
not see.
Just few seconds before the train
passed these cattle commenced to
struggle across the track to the side on
which Mr.. Warrington was standing.
The bovines all got safely across except
one small Jersey bull. He was caught
on the cowcatcher and hurled away
with terrible velocity, and, as mis-.
fortune would have It, he struck Mr.
Watlington about midships and
Knocked him down into the ditch and
planted the bull on top of him.
The bull was stunned and struggled
but could not get up, and the water
was drowning both man and beast
The engineer, Mr.. Honeycutt, was
watching the cattle and had not seer
Mr.. Watlingtpn, and when the fireman
told him what had happened he stopped
the train and hurried back, and go
/ there in time to get Mr.. Watlington an6
the bovine out Of the ditch before theJ
were drowned. Striking Mr.. Waiting
ton and knocking him into the watel
saved the life of the bull, and the watel
saved the blow by the bull from killing
Warrington.
Further examination showed that tn,
bull struck Mr.. Wat1ington and tn,
shock had knocked the gun some dis
tance, and when it struck the ground
was discharged and killed one of tn
cows and wounded another so badl.
that it had to be killed. The gun wa
not injured.
On these facts Judge Brown held tina
the railroad company was not liable b
damages to Mr.. Watlington. Since tn

Down behind the western hill the red

For death turks in the mountains and
darkness comes apace.
The fleeing sun looks backward and turns
the sky to gold,
Then folds the mantle of the night
across its crimson face.

Home, when my toiling is done;
All! down by the gate, sweet, watch

Lay aside the hoe and spade, and put the
