Know.-Chief Engineer Horton, of the Bal
timore City Fire Department, says that the
burning of zinc, soda or sulphur in a stove
or furnace will extinguish chimney fire
and also clean the chimney. He has been
making series of tests for some time in this
direction and has found this simple solution
of the chimney fire evil to be very effective and
successful According to the Chief, it is the
fumes that extinguish the flames and cause the
SCOT to fall. He said it was not new discov-
ery, especially with sulphur but that it was
means by which any householder could pre-
vent an embryo fire.

Farmers Have Good Time.-The Green
Spring Valley Hunt Club gave its annual
luncheon on the LIST instant to the farmers over
whose lands the members hunt. The amuse-
ments of the day opened with fox-hunt,
which started at o clock and ended at o clock,
for the members of the club and their guests.
They started from Gwypnbrook Station, with
field of twenty riders and forty of their best
hounds, and it was about the best hunt of the
season, although the hunters did not obtain a
brush of any of the three foxes they started.
This was blamed on the hard condition of the
roads. which were slippery in many places.
While the members of the club were out the
annual farmers shoot and other shooting
events were in progress on the club grounds.
These events started at IL O. clock and continued
until darkness, on account of which two of
the shooting events had to be dropped. They
were the ladies' match at ten targets the prize
being riding CROP and the open to all event,
at twenty targets, with no prize But the four
other events which we're shot afforded great
excitement, especially the second event, which
was for the farmers only, at twenty-five tar
GETS and was won by Mr.. S. Griffin with
score of % out of Is targets, the first prize be-
ing a fine English bride. The second prize
was gun case, won by Mr.. Shaffer with
a score of q targets The third prize was a
horse blanket aud was won by Mr.. Joseph
Dreyer with score of 20 targets. The fourth
prize was a driving whip, won by Mr.. ]. II.
prize was a box of 100 shells. 1t was won by
Mr.. NJ. Chenoweth with score of 10 targets.
The sixth prize, which was for the lowest score,
was cunning coat, won by Mr.. B. Waterman
with score OF zero.
The shooting was stopped about 8 o'clock,
when luncheon was announced and all the
farmers made their way to the club house
where they were put at their ease by the men,
bers of the club, who helped to wait on them.
There was very little decoration in the dining
room. The only thing to show that it was
New Years was little holly, but that did not
stop the fun of the farmers, who enjoyed them
selves immensely. After lunch several volun-
teered to do some clog dancing, which caused
much amusement. Then all left for the traps
to finish the shooting.
, One of the features of the shoot was an ex-
hibition given by Mr.. J NOVEL; Hawkins and
although it was hard to see the targets, on &C
count of the coming darkness, he showed how
we'll he could shoot, by shooting at three tar
gets thrown at the same time, with repeat
ing shotgun. He hit all three pretty nearly
every time. Then he also shot at several single
targets holding his gun at arms length, and
did not make miss.
Messrs. George Mordecai, Thomas B. Harri-
son and Horace White had charge of the
shooting events. Mr.. VIM. Gilmor Hoffman,
Jr., had charge Of the arrangements in the
club house.
