Writer Says Mount Vernon Had Black
Fox Which Wat Never
Caught.
Washington wae a renowned fox
hunter. Mrs. Washington s grandson
left in an old magazine a vif'id picture
of the "Colonel," as he named him, In
hunting garb.
A blue coat, bright red waistcoat,
buckskin knee breeches and a closely
fitting black velvet cap that was
Washington as a fox hunter.
His favorite horse for the sport was
a dark dapple gray called Blueskin.
Custis wrote that no horse could dis
mount Washington, so long and strong
were ids legs, says Uirard.
Carrying that fine figure, six feet
two, and then weighing 190 pounds,
was no easy job for Blueskin, yet he
did it a couple of times a week and
occasionally as far as 30 miles in a
day.
At Mount Vernon was a black fox
routed out frequently and chased for
leagues, but never caught, said Mr.
Custis.
"How often do they catch a fox?" I
asked J. Charles MurtagU, for whom
the back of a fleet horse has the cush
ions of a limousine beaten ten lengths
at the first quarter.
"Never, or at least rarely," siild he,
"unless they cheat the fox. Caged too
long, or set down in a strange coun
try, he may lose his brush. Given a
fair show a fox will outwit almost any
pack of hounds and the best hunters."
Uf course, there are hounds and then
again Just heunus.
Those fine packs of English bounds
kept by Charles T. Mathers and i'lun
kett Stewart can run the legs oil any
thoroughbreds.
But the S. P. C. A. would pounce upon
sportsmen today who should Indulge
in the cruelties practiced a hundred
years ago by horsemen and hunters.
On the 1'hlladelphla race track heats
of four miles were run and repeated.
To decide whether the tiorse could
outdo the hounds a race was arranged.
Sixty thoroughbreds started with a
small pack of hounds over a given
course.
The hounds won, only 12 horses fin
ished and one of them, a valuable
racer, was thereafter stone blind from
overexertion.
Famous Selvln ran the four-mile
course In Philadelphia in four seconds
under eight minutes. Part of the time
he was going well over 40 feet a sec
ond. And according to one who saw the
race, "the mud was knee deep."
Record was made of a horse driven
to a light vehicle 12 miles in about 82
minutes. Philadelphia Inquirer.
Ocean Keeps Tragic Secret.
Disappearing In the Broadway of
the Atlantic ocean, extending from the
eastern end of the Panama canal
toward New York city, the 7,000-ton
oil tanker Swiftstar added to mari
time history another Incident of mys
tery. Loaded wth 77,000 barrels of oil
mid manned by a crew of 28 officers
and men, it recently left Los Angeles
bound for a Massachusetts port. It
was last heard from when entering
the sea lane along the east coast, hut
no vessel sighted It there, and no
word came from Its wireless. In those
same waters the collier Cyclops van
ished some time ago as completely as
If a giant monster of the deep had
stretched forth a huge hand and pulled
the craft beneath the water. Evidence
that dlsuster befell the Swiftstar was
found by a schooner captain after
several electric storms. The sea all
about was littered with splintered
wood, a floating chest yielded the
charred, unidentified body of a man,
nud for miles the surface was covered
with a heavy film of oil Populur

Sabbath-Observing Clock.
Among the wedding presents re
ceived by the duke and duchess of
York, when they were married In Eng
land a few months since, was a clock
made in 1804. It was built In the hope
that George III would purchase it, and
is nearly five feet Ugh. Besides show.
Ing the hour, minute and second in the
usual way, the clock allows the day
of the week and month and the phases
of the moon. It has a carillon of six
teen bells and eight different changes
of time.
Kvery third hour, from an opening
in the dial representing Whitehall, the
figure of (Jeorge III, Queen Charlotte
and other members of the royal family
appear in procession, and as the king
enters a troop of horse guards canters
about. There Is no procession on Sun
days, the mechanism stopping auto
matically on thnt day.
