COURSING.
The lessee of Plumpton Park, Mr M. Taylor, has lost no time in gaining such support from coursing men as has enabled the programme for the Plumpton April meeting to be advertised in our columns to-day. The leading supporters of coursing in the district have consented to act as stewards, and will have full control of the running; and Mr J. Beechy, hon secretary of the Canterbury and Yaldhurst Coursing Clubs, acts as secretary. Hares at the Plumpton Park are plentiful and in capital order, and no stone will be left unturned to popularise the sport. Mr M'Clure remains in charge at Plumpton, and Mr Taylor continues his training establishment at Avonside, quite unconnected with his new venture, which he has entered into in the hope of keeping alive coursing aa a sport.
