AN oLD-FASHIONED HUNT.
Chevy Chase Hounds Run Fifteen
Miles After n Fox

An oldfashioned fox hunt was the in
centive for the New Year day run of the
Chevy Chase hounds. A chase after a live
fox gave to lovers of cross-country riding
rare sport, and the participants enjoyed
run of about fifteen miles before the fox
was brought down. The death occurred
near Halpine, Md. The kill was picturesque
occurring after long and hard run.
The only thing that marred the days
sport was a severe cropper which befeH the
acting master of hounds, Mr. Gist Blair,
who had a nasty fall about half way
through the run. over a stiff sapling fence,
necessitating his leaving the field.
Miss Alice Lanshorn was the first lady in
at the death, and SO received the brush.

second and the mask was hung on her
saddle.

attention was given was that according to
the new charter, il passed by the general
assembly of the state, pavements will be
laid at the entire expense of the abutting
property owners, instead of charging two
thirds to the owner. as at present Several
members declared that in their opinion this
was an injustice, and that the voice of the
citizens should be recognized before the
new charter is presented to the state SEN
ate and house of delegates, which conyenes
today. The board adopted resolution pro-
viding that in the Judgment of the board of
trade any amended charter should before
submission to the general assembly be laid
before the people of the town in public
meeting for the approval or disapproval of
all the citizens.
The board passed resolution which was
substantially as follows: That to place
Hyattsyille upon a plane of equality with
the most progressive town of the state
manufacturing plants, established or to be
established here, should be exempted from
state, county ana municipal taxation by a
charter amendment. Mr. James c. Rogers

MICHIGAN BEAT STANFORD.
Team with Seasons Foot Ball Record
Won by FOrty-Nine Points

By the decisive score of 40 to the Mich

defeated Stanford University at Pasadena,

the general superiority of the eastern men
at the game of foot ball. 1t does not how
ever, tell the story of Stanford's desperate
but futile efforts against defeat Mich
igan's superior knowledge of the game
showed in every play. At kicking. general
team work, running, tackIing and buckine

haps the strongest feature OF their playing
was the phenomenal punting by Sweeley.
Michigans right end. In every exchange
OF punts Stanford lost ground. which IL
could not regain. In the first half STAN
ford showed fairly we'll for the first twenty
minutes. and managed to make a few small
gains through Michigans line. 1t defended
its own goal, too, rather ~stubbornly In this
half. Gradually, however, the Michiean
boys forced the bali down the field for
steady gains through center and around the
left end.
The record of the Michigan team for the
past season Is the most remarkable In the
history OF college foot ball. The teams Of
