Foxhounds Dash Over Gin.

A fine 5O-minutes' run with the East
bourne foxhounds on Saturday had an
exciting termination and brought
about a serious loss to the pack. An
excellent start was made, a stout fox
being found in Mr.. Gwynnes gorse
near Folkington. and the field follow
ed merrily after on to the downs.
Faster and faster went the fox and
the hounds after him. until the quarry
made straight for the cliff. The mas
ter saw the danger and used every
effort to turn the pack, but in vain
and two couples and a half of the
leading hounds had gone clear over the
cliff and were killed before the re-
mainder were stopped. The pace was
the fastest Of any run for several sea
sons.-London Standard.

MUST PAY CONTEST
COSTS In ADVANCE

Hereafter all costs In land contests
before the local land Office must be
paid in advance. In the past, under
the regulations, the practice has been
to pay the costs from time to time
during the trial, but from this time
forward an estimae must be made
and the costs paid in advance or else
sufficient security must be deposited.
This Is the tenor of new ruling re
ceived which reads as follows.
Hereafter the estimated cost OF re-
duoing to writing all testimony to be
taken before the register and receiver
in contest case shall be collected in
advance from the contesting parties
OH the date of the hearing before the
hearing begins, or, under rule SO of
practice, the party liable thereto may
be required to give security In ad.
vance of the trial by deposit, in a
reasonable sum or sums tor the pay
ment of the cost OF transoribing testi-
mony.
"keoeipts will issue for the am counts
collected in accordance with para
graph q, of the departmental order
dated June |, 1903. IL an additional
amount above the estimated cost is
collected, additional receipts will
issue therefore, aud the amounts de-
posted to the official credit of the re.
ceiver, as hereinafter directed.
"Money so recepted for will be
deposited to the official credit of the
receiver OF public money as 'unearned
fees and other trust funds, and so
held until the complete record of the
case, in connection with which de-
post has been transcribed and flied
IN the local lend office, when payment
may then be made to the contest
clerk and the net balance, exclusive
TO such balance, deposited to the
credit of the treasurer of the United
States, and any excess amount return
cd to the proper parties. Report will
then be made of such collections and
expenditures, as heretofore, upon the
abstract of collections and expendi-
tures in contest cases. w

HOW TO APPLY THE DESIGN

execute it satisfactorily. One is,
see that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-and that
your design is placed upon it evenly
at every point.
The second is, when placed accu-
rately, secure the design to the ma
terial with thumb tacks or pins so
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes in white.
black, blue, red and yellow. / adj
wise the use of the lighter colors
when possible, as the black and blue
are so liable to crock.
Do not rest your hands or fingers
upon any part of the design you are
transferring, else the imprint of
hand or fingers will be as distinct
upon the material as the drawn
lines of the design.

for linen in daily use: but because Of
what Howells so aptly calls the In

arranged wall roll could not be recon-

HERE are two ways to apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it,:
If your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen. lawn, batiste
and the like-the simplest method
is to lay the material over the de-
sign, and, with well-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
If your material is heavy, secure
a piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay it, face down, upon this;
then draw over each line Of the
paper design with hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer paper, you will find neat and
accurate impression of the design
upon your material.
There are two points to observe
in this simple process, if you would
