BEAGLE HOUNDS TO
Be EXHIBITED AT
BRYN MAWR SHOW
Appropriate Thai American
Peterboro Should Be Held
Here, as Philadelphia Is
Great Sport Centre.

AS 1t is generally accepted that Phila-
America. it is particularly appropriate
that the first :'Amerlcan Peterboro'
should ne hed here. 1t Is expected that
the first smhow especially for foxhounds
and hcagles ever held in America, which
will take place at Bryn Mawr, under the
auspices of the Horse Show during the
five days beginning September 81. will
mean to America what the similar show
held annually at Peterboro, England,
means to Great Britain.
At the coming Bryn Mawr Hound Show
there will be n large number of local en-
tries, and many representative packs
from other cities will compete. The won
derfully organized beagle packs of II. c..
Phipps and George b. Post, Jr.. of New
York are entered. From Virginia will
come DR.. F.. Lester Jones. of Culpeper,
Va, and from Ipswich, Mass, James w.
Appleton Others from New York will be
the packs of Raymond Belmont. Arthur
Burden, s. T. Peters and Eugene ). Rey-
nal. The packs will be shown by the
master and huntsmen in hunt colors and
these events will make an interesting ad-
dition to the Bryn Mawr Horse Show.
The Hound Show Committee on beagle
hounds at the Horse Show will consist of
w. Plunkett Stewart chairman: William
w. Justice, secretary; Clarence Clark. 3D.,
r. Penn Smith, Jr, and Thomas Cad
wslader.
There are several sections of this coun-
try in which the English hare which is
the ideal quarry to hunt with beagles,
has been introduced Where this game is
not found the American "cottontail"
rabbit. which incidentally, in scientific
classification. is true hare, affords very
good sport, and occasionally the Western
jack-rabbt, when dropped, shows n very
good bit of sport.
II Is said in America there is probably
some of the most perfect types of beagles
in the world. Drafts from the best Eng
llsh kennels have been made by A. RI.
HigGlnson and J. W. Appleton in New
England. by Phipps. Post and Belmont
on Long Island and by Thomas Cadwala-
der and others in Philadelphia.
For many years there have been indi-
vldual owners of good beagles scattered
around in Chester, Delaware and Mont
gomery Counties, and some very success
full beagle field trials were held on the
Bradford Hills in Chester County years
ago. Interest in the beagIes by the peo-
pie of the social set. however has been
a very recent development in and around
Philadelphia.

CURTISS MILITARY
PLANE TRIED OUT
Machine Said to More than Full
fiji Requirements in Tests
of Authorities.

Advices from San Diego indicate
that the military aeroplane construct
ed by Glenn H. Curtiss for the govern
ment prize contest next month has far
exceeded the requirements of the au-
thorities. Conditions imposed require
that a load of about 500 pounds must
be carried, the speed range must be
from as to 10 miles an hour and the
machine must be capable. of climbing
5000 feet in ten minutes.
In the trials at the camp the Cur.
tiss machine attained q speed OF
eighty-six miles an hour and climbed
more than 1000 feet in ten minutes,
carrying the full load. The plane used
was of the Reconnaissance" type and
is fitted with a 90-horsepower motor.
A striking feature of the new model
is tina. the lines of the wing surfaces
closely follow those of the Rodman
Wanamaker machine, the America. The
lower surfaces are fiat, which is an ad-
vantage in that, while the lower sur
faces assist in lifting the load from
the ground, their fat construction Of
fers little resistance when the machine
is in fight. The spread of the wings
is forty feet. The machine also is
capable of rising from narrowed
ground or long grass.
