Hotel del Coronado, Dec. 22–The guests of Hotel del Coronado were treated to a novel experience this morning in the shape of riding after a pack of hounds in front of an Edison kinetoscope. James H. White and Fred W. Blechynden, his assistant, arrived here last evening, representing the Thomas A. Edison laboratory at Orange, N. J. Mr. White is making a tour through Southern California, taking pictures on the way, and this morning took what will be the finest in his collection–one of the famous Coronado rabbit chases. Many of the guests turned out–the gentlemen riding, and ladies and gentlemen driving in four-in-hands, buckboards, and rigs of all description. At a given signal, the pack of forty hounds was started, closely followed by the riders, and the carriages after them, all dashing along at breakneck speed, in front of the machine. Splendid pictures were secured.
Mr. White then took a picture of the riders and hounds alone.
