In the United States of America, Mr. A. Belmont, jun., 

 has not only got together a fine kennel, but in addition he 

 imported a clever English manager, German Hopkins, to 

 look after its inmates, which he did most satisfactorily, until 

 he sought a wider range for his abilities. The Messrs. 

 Rutherford, New York ; Mr. E. J. Thayer, and others in 

 the States and Canada, followed Mr. Belmont's example, 

 whilst Australia and New Zealand have proved themselves 

 thoroughly English by their importations of fox terriers, and

 to find these colonies throwing down the gauntlet to the 

 old country in friendly rivalry on the show bench, as they 

 have done with such success in the cricket field and on the 

 water. Our French, Belgian, and German friends, the 

 latter with a fox terrier club of their own, have also taken 

 kindly to the little dog, and at many of the continental 

 shows specimens of more than average merit are continually 

 met with, and often an Englishman is asked over to judge 

 them. Perhaps the name of Mrs. Hoogeveen Van Walchren, 

 of the Hague, Holland, deserves special mention, for that 

 lady got together an excellent collection of terriers, which,

 it is here, as will be inferred from the following story :
