BY NINA CARTER TABB.

a IDDLEBURG HUNTS opening
Nu meeting was held at Benton,
Vl home Of the Master and Mrs
4 Daniel S. Sands, on Monday
morning. Their lovely old brick house
was fitting background for the smart
crowd of people and thoroughbred
horses gathered in the brilliant sun
ahine to start the fox hunting season.
MIR. Sands and Miss Charlotte H.
Noland, joint masters, rode down the
driveway, followed by more than 100
riders. They crossed from the Ben
ton estate onto Duncan Reads, then
the Basil Halls place and drew sew
eral coverts. While drawing William
Bentons farm they started a fox
that ran to Freddy Warburg's place,
clrcled to William Benton's again
and back to Warburg's. From there
they ran to William Hits place. 1t
was beautiful sight to see fox, hounds
and the field streaming along the top
OF the hill in front of the Hit house
and jump after Jump taken with the
hounds in full cry.
The fox was denned after half an
hours run in field above the banks
of Goose Greek near New Ford.
Hounds were then brought back to-
ward William Hits house and as
riders circled the field in front, hounds
nosed toward the vegetable garden
and in full view jumped the second
fox in Mr.. Hits cabbage patch. Off
they all went around the south field
to run toward Goose Creek, which
the fox crossed to run up a hill on the
Mackenzie Tabb farm Here hounds
were called off as the creek was very
high from recent rains and riders
didn't care to plunge into it. The day
was warm by that time and horses
and riders weary from heavy going, so
everyone logged home.
Children and parents were feature
OF the day, many of the youngsters
riding their first hunt. Among the
parents and children present were Mr..
and Mrs. William Hulburt and their
daughter, Miss Elizabeth Hubert, and
son, Billy Hubert, jr Mr.. and Mrs.
Arthur White and their son, Ridgely
White, who was home for the week end
from st. Adams School; Mr.. Rogers

to take her home, she pleaded, Don't

Increase of 1871 Pct.

The Federal Reserve Bank Of Rich
mond reported today that building
permits issued in January in 81 lead
ing cities of the fifth Reserve district
numbered 1868, compared with 1.421
permits issued in January, 1886, an
increase of 38.1 per cent. and esti-
mated valuation figures for last month
totaling $5,672,717 showed an increase
of 372 per cent over estimated valu-
alton figures totaling $4134.060 in
January last year.
Twenty-Five of the 81 reporting
cities showed higher valuation figures
for the 1887 month. All of the five
largest cities, Baltimore, Washington,
Richmond, Norfolk and Charlotte, in
creased this year.
Contracts actually awarded in jan
uary, 1887, for construction work in
the fifth district, including both
rural and urban projects, totaled
s32,62l 900, compared with s23,714,-
l62 awarded in January, 1886.

The heavy rains of Spring and Sum-

Rain Spout Requirements.
If your rain spouts are in poor shape
why not replace them with modern
copper ones, which will last life
time? Then again the flashings
around chimneys, dormers and other
projections should be examined for
flaws which might result in serious
damage If water is admitted and
causes rot or other damage to the
house construction. Attention to these
little details will result in the saving
of a great deal of money If they are
caught at the right time, and II good
materials are used the chances are
that you will never have to worry
about them again.
The ordinary rainspout is usually
any thing but beautiful, but through
the use of the newer designs in spout
ing you can not only be sure that
water falling on the roof will be safely
conducted to the drain, but you can
also add to the outward appearance Of

IN the appraisal of industrial real es-

items to be considered or covered in
this stage of the appraisers work, the
first systematic and comprehensive list
of the kind to be accepted by the pro-
fessional group in this highly spe-
cialized field, has been developed after
a two-year study by subcommittee
of the American Institute of Real Es-
tate Appraisers of the National ASso-
citation of Real Estate Boards A pre-
liminary check list for use in the ap-
praisal of commercial properties has
likewise been developed. covering 176
items as those the appraiser needs to
check in his preliminary survey.
Both check sheets, as prepared by
the subcommittee, under the chair
manship of w. G. Burchfield, Houston,
Tex, and under the general direction
of the Institutes Committee on Re-
search and Education, with K. Lee
Hyder, Milwaukee, chairman, were
accepted by the governing council of

and revision.

the piping to terminate. Into this
small opening is then fed the copper
tubing, which is directed up between
the ioists to its new terminus. The
pleasant fact that the tubing is f1ex-
ible and comes in convenient coils
makes it possible for it to be handled
almost like wire. thereby eliminating
the dificulties formerly encountered
with straight pipe on modernization
jobs.
Sweated Copper Fittings.
Another beauty of this copper tub
ing installation is the use Of sweated
copper fittings, which eliminate the
labor of threading pipe. After the
tubing has been run to its desired
destinations the plumber merely cleans
off the ends of it with some steel wool,
also the interiors of the desired fittings
to be used. Some soldering paste IS
then applied, a blow torch heats the
two members. and with quick appli-
cation of solder the space between
the tubing and fitting is filled by
capillary action so that tight, leak
proof bond is automatically achieved.
You can easily see how much time and
labor are saved with these simple
methods OF installation. and while
