MONTREAL DOC SHOW. 



THE first bench show of the Montreal Dog Fanciers' Asso- 

 ciation was held on the lSth. 19th and -.'Oth of September. 

 The building selected for the show was the Crystal Rink ; 

 and being or immense size, very lof tv, without any inside pil- 

 lars, it was in eveiy way suitable, aud at the close of the show 

 hardly auy unpleasant smell could be noticed. The exhibition 

 was the most successful of any yet. held in Montreal, 463 dogs 

 being in their places, and only five or six of the entries were 

 absent. Much of the success is due to the untiring efforts of 

 the secretary, Mr. John P. Campbell. The judging was done 

 by two gentlemen whose names I omitted to find out, the 

 awards were generally correct, and there was less grumbling 

 afterwards than is usually heard. The prizes were paid 

 promptly toward the close of the show, and notwithstanding 

 we we were unfortunate in having rain on two days, yet the 

 bank account will, I believe, show a surplus. The exhibit of 

 sporting dogs was not good, for Montreal is not possessed of 

 many blue-blooded setters and pointers, such as you see in 

 the States. The entries for pointers, setters, spaniels, etc., 

 were not numerous, and the quality, with the exception of 

 the Gordons, was nothing to boast of: but in the non-sporting 

 classes were many fine dogs, for in terriers especially Mont- 

 real is hard to beat. The dogs had ample space, the large 

 ones being chained all round the building on a platform raised 

 about a foot above the floor, while the small varieties were 

 confined in wire cages on tables running the length of the 

 building. 



The prizes were firsts, second and honorable mention, dogs and 

 bitches competing in separate classes. 



Greyhounds were represented by two dogs and a bitch with 

 pups, all good, and better than generally seen in this country. 

 Mr. C. Murray's black dog took first and Mr. Jos. Hiokson's 

 •brindle second: the bitch, also a Hack, owned by Mr. Creighton, 

 was also awarded a first-. 



Two large mongrels were shown as bloodhounds, but very 

 properly no award was made in this class. 



Foxhounds numbered three, all pups; shown by Mr. John 

 Roberts. They were a good lot, looked like fast dogs, and de- 

 served their first and two hm. 



English pointers had seven entries, but there was nothing extra 

 in this class. J. B. Sparrow took first for the best dog, G. B. 

 Arcandforthe best pup, and Inn for bitch. In hardly any, of 

 the classes were the names or pedigrees of the dogs given, so I 

 will not enter into particulars. 



English setters brought out nothing to look at. Mr. H. Curtis 

 was awarded second for a white and black ticked dog, and John 

 Dickson for the best bitch, a small orange and w-hite. 



Dish setters.— A dog and a biteh were the only two in this 

 class, and both ga ined a first. The biteh was the best of the two, 

 and is owned by Mr. John Warner. 



Gordon setters. — First, Mr. John Hickcy's Major, by Marble. 

 Grouse, out of Queen Bess II. A very fine dog, medium size, 

 not too clumsy, rich tan markings, and well feathered. He 

 was in good condition, and attracted much notice. Mr. Hickey 

 imported Major from, I believe, Elizabeth, New Jersey, anil 

 he has got at the stud some very handsome puppies. 



For the best Gordon setter bitch Mr. Robert Blackwood's 

 Young Flora took first. Young Flora is by Mr. J. A. Hal- 

 dane's (of Lodge Keith, Scotland), dbg Ranger, out of Flora, 

 one of the Duke of Richmond's black and tans. She was im- 

 ported June, 18S0. 



Gordon setter pups. — Mr. Blackwood's Faustina first. Mr. 

 Hickey's Flattery, honorable mention. Both good, little to 

 choose between the two. 



- The spaniels were poor in quality in all classes, but Mr. J. 

 F. Cambell took first in Norfolks with a very handsome lit- 

 tle dog imoorted from the Marquis of Bute's kennel. 



The class for collies filled well, and the best dog was a small 

 one owned by Mr. Alloway. 



Newfoundlands.— The American Consul, Mr. Gianelh, took 

 first with an enormous dog. The others were good also, and 

 I think the winner owed his prize to his size. 



Bulldogs— For dogs, no first was awarded, Mr. H. C. Dean 

 taking second with a white and brindle dog with cropped 

 ears, the other entry being a nondescript. 



Bulldogs, bitches.— W. Hammersluy's Venus (by Bonny Boy, 

 out of Gypsev), was the only entry and was awarded first. 

 Venus is out of the same, litter as the New York Thunder. 



Mastiffs— .Mr. Beatty, of St, Lambert, took fir.st, with a 



very fine dog; J. H. Stewart, second, with a very big one. but 

 poorly marked. 



The classes for terriers of all sorts were well tilled, some 

 handsome Skyes. fox-terriers, black and tans, and toy

EASTERN FIELD TRIALS CLUB.— At a meeting of the 

 Eastern Field Trials Club, held at Delmouico's last Thursday 

 evening, the suggestion of Forest and Stream was con- 

 sidered, and it was decided that the running of the. Trials to be 

 held at High Point will be run as at Fairmont— under as many 

 sets of judges as may be found necessary to confine the length 

 of the Trials to proper limits. This is a wise course, and will 

 undoubtedly prove very satisfactory to all concerned. Mr. 

 Hall, the secretary, tendered his resignation, as owing to the 

 demands of business he is unable to devote the necessary time 

 to the duties of his office. His resignation was accepted, and 

 ID. Washington A. Coster was unanimously elected to fill his 

 place. Gentlemen who are to run their dogs in the Eastern 

 Field Trials can obtain free transportation for them by ap- 

 plying to Mr. Coster, whose, address is Flatbush, N. Y. 



BLACK SPANIELS.— Anyone in want of a well-bred 

 black spaniel should examine the advertisement of the Hor- 

 nell Spaniel Club, who offer some of their celebrated stock 

 for sale. These handsome and gamy little fellows are last 

 winning their way into favor, and we presume that there 

 will be plenty of customers for them. 



PENNSYLVANIA COLLIE TRIALS.— At the Pennsyl- 

 mia State Fair, Allegheny City, Sept. lti, there was a trial 

 of sheep dogs, in which were entered Champion Tweed II., 

 owned by Mr. Thos. H. Terry, of New York, and Dau, owned 

 by Mr. Wm. J, Walker, of Washington county, Pa. Tweed 

 easily won the first prize.
