TARAMAKI HUNT.
GOOD SPORT ON BEACONSFIELD ROAD. Yesterday the members of the Taranaki Hunt Club liad a splendid day's sport commencing in the neighbourhood of tae Beaconslield Road. Hares were, if anything, too plentiful, and Mr A. Ciiii, the huntsman, has great difficulty in keeping his sixteen couple of hounds on the one scent. Altogether there were some six good runs, the country being excellent in most places, though somo dirty patee-es were struck, it is interesting to note that none of the hunters lost their seats, and no accidents of any kind occurred. Airs Richmond, on whose property some goad sport was obtained, entertained the club to afternoon tea, and assured these present that they were welcome to come that way again on any future occasion, when she would be only too pleased to again entertain them, line master (Mr iialcombe) briefly and suitably responded, thanking' Mrs Richmond for her kindness to the club members. The visiting hunters numbered about twenty, including eight ladies, the majority of whom were from [nglewcod. Among the Stratford members vera: Miss Abbott, on Barney, Miss Jones on Gramornus, Miss Eryd:;v on Jack, Miss Annie Fry-clay on Barney, Miss Brake on Singlet, Miss Smith', Messrs I. Brannigan on Tonato, Joe Wade on Millbanks, A. J. Davcv on Nero, T. Careen on Allandale.'Ered. Gooch on Nestor, C. Diamond on Darkie, and Schafer on Slow
Tom. The club wishes to thank all those rasidents ivh so kimlly allowed their properties to be hunted over. Among these were Messrs George gangster, Ro'-ers, Wellington liros., and Mrs aiehmond.
