A Competent Wife.

Professor Jenkins was deep in a
philosophical discussion with Wis.,

Mrs. Ely, knocked at his study door
and then opened it without further
ceremony, says the Youths Com

"Oh professor" she gasped from
the threshold, your house is on
fireV
THANK you," the professor re-
sponded, with smiling courtesy. AS
Mrs. Ely turned away, he added:
would you mind mentioning it to
Mrs. Jenkins as you go out?"
Mrs. Ely giggled Historically. "But

AS she went out gently closing

no necessity for me to NEEDLE with

LED HOUNDS TO DRAG TRAIL
Wise or Lucky Maneuver by Which
Fox Escaped the Hunters for
a Time.

One Of the oldest experiences in the
hunting field happened yesterday
when the Chevy Chase fox pack were
out on regular Monday hunt The
pack was taken to the covers On the
western end of the Jones place. In a
very few minutes fox was jumped
which broke for the wooded banks of
Rock Creek valley. Whether the In
bred cunning of centuries of hunted
ancestors told him what to do or not,
on the Rock Creek farms he crossed
the line of the drag laid for last Sat
urday's drag hunt, which the warm
rains had brought up very strongly.
After taking several Of these stiff
post and rail and plank fences, with
which this place is crisscrossed, the
huntsman recognized his carefully
planned drag run OF last week and at
tempted to check the pack But 1t was
useless. The hounds were literally
flying and one by one the riders came
to grief or dropped out on the race,
until only the master, the huntsman
and one whip were riding to the
hounds.
They finally came up with the pack
at check after two miles, but only
after they had cast themselves back
for the line. Whipping the hounds in
again, the master took them as rapid.
ly as possible back to where the orig
inai line had been left. and laying the
hounds on they ran true and put thsi.
