The German Emperor's well-known appreciation of the amenities of English

country life is again illustrated by the interesting announcement made in Thursday's Daily Mail. Having decided to introduce fox-hunting into his domains, the Kaiser commissioned the huntsman of Lord Fitzwilliam's Grove Hounds to form a pack, and the hounds are already on their way to Potsdam. The pack includes fourteen couple from the leading packs of the United Kingdom and one from the Galway Blazers, and the Kaiser's second son, Prince Eitel Fritz, will undertake the duties of M.P.H. Here at Least is a method of promoting an Anglo-German entente which every one can welcome. We wish all success to the Potsdam Blazers. May the Emperor, his sous, and his subjects enjoy many a good run in the woodlands of the Mark.
