Hare and Hounds.

The weather yesterday afternoon was favorable for a very pleasant run, but only eleven men turned out to take advantage of it The hares, Bemis, '87, and Davis, '88, left the steps of Matthews at 3.10. Seven minutes later the hounds, under Brandt, '85, as master of hounds in pursuit. The course lay up Kirkland street, through the Norton woods, out Wendall street, across North-avenue to the Observatory, past Fresh pond and Mt. Auburn, near which the bags were left. The scent was very well laid, and the hounds found little difficulty in following it until they came to the Mt. Auburn cemetery, where they wasted much time in vam attempts to find the bags. The hares came in at 4.10. reaching the gymnasium more than twenty minutes ahead of the hounds and they thus won the cups. The hounds came in about an hour later, with Brandt, '85, first, Webster, '87, second, and Frost, '87, third.
