 so for the Smoky Citv and the genial, whole- 

 whp make it thou- home. Everything looks 

 sry suceessftd show. Mr. Chas, Lincoln has 

 ;ly to make all the arrangements complete, 

 and with his usual success, as everything is running smoothly, 

 even to the minor details. 



As will be seen by looking at the list of entries, many of the 

 most prominent dogs of the country will be present, as well as 

 quite a number of youngsters who, judging from their breed- 

 ing, should make a" good showing. There will be sharp com- 

 petition for the many and valuable special prizes offered, and 

 the winners may well be proud of the result. The magnificent 

 display of these priV.es in one of the large show windows of J. 

 Palmer O'Neil & Co. attracts universal attention, and is well 

 Worthy an inspection. Although all of them are not ex- 

 hibited, the display is very fine, and does infinite credit to the 

 donors. In the other window is displayed an oil painting bv 

 Mr, J. M. Tracy, of the red Irish setter Biz, owned by Mr. 

 Mcintosh. This is exceedingly well executed, and we think it 

 the best and most life-like picture of a dog that we have ever 

 seen. 



In addition to the large list of special prizes, Messrs. Bailey, 

 Banks & Biddle, of Philadelphia, oiler a solid silver ladle for 

 the best kennel of sporting dogs owned by one individual. 

 The. judge in this, class has no easy task, as there are several 

 kennels here that, for purity of breeding and beauty of form, 

 are well worthy of the highest commendation, and the for- 

 tunate winner may well feel proud of the high honor achieved 

 in securing this prize. The special for the best kennel of five 

 English setters is also a warm place, as there are. no less than 

 five entries, and all of them first-class. 



The class for Laveracks is exciting considerable attention, 

 and the pick of the best kennels in the country are present to 

 contend for the. honors. 



The show is held in the old City Hall, which is a capital 

 place, as the room is large and well ventilated. There are 

 three rows of double stalls for the dogs, extending the length 

 of the hall. Owing to the large number of entries there will 

 be no room in the main hall for judging, which will be done 

 in a room up-stairs. The hall is lighted with the electric light, 

 which we should judge will display the animals full as well in 

 the eVening as by e a y. The daily papers contaiu glowing 

 accounts of the wonderful dogs that are to be shown, and 

 There is lots Of do;: talk on the street corners and by the fire- 

 side, and the exhibition will no doubt be thronged with eager 

 crowds anxious to behold the celebrated animals about whom 

 so much has been said. 



Many of the dogs are already here, and the. trains to-night 

 will bring the remainder of the entiles. A number of sports- 

 men from all parts of the country are he e and many more 

 are expected to-night and to-morrow. Among the first to 

 arrive were Mr. D.'C. Sanborn, of Dowling, Mich.; Mr, C. T. 

 Armstrong, of New Albany, ind. ; Mr. L. F. 6-. Berkley and 

 Mr. H. Bailey Harrison, 'of Tilsonburg. Ont. ; Mr. L. G-. 

 Banner , of Cleveland, O. ; Mr. E. I. Marten, of Wilmington, 

 Del. 



We. shall defer an exam in ation of the dogs until they are 

 put in show condition, as many of them have come a long dis- 

 tance and very much need the scrubbing and rubbing which 

 they are now receiving. Our report next week will "contain 

 comments upon the most 

 full list of the awards.

A VISIT TO JOHN 



IBT me give voii some aocotrnt of a

 tate of our genial "mutual friend,' Jolt 

 a more hospitable, whole-hearted, thot 

 man is not often found a-Geld. I had I 



gageinents to visit the -worthy Scot's plantation, but was com- 

 pelled, very reluctantly, to cancel them on account of' pressure 

 of business, but on Saturday last, John found me. with an 

 afternoon at mv disposal, and you can readily imagine I fell a 

 willing captive. It was a b ight, crisp, blear, sunshiny Feb- 

 ruary day, such a one as ordinarily is .seldom seen in Michigan, 

 though they have been abundant during this almost phenom- 

 enal winter. We were soon seated in his neat, compact little 

 shooting wagon, behind a pair of sharp little ponies, as neat 

 and compact as the vehicle which they drew, and whirling 

 across the historic River Raisin, over the very ground wnerej 

 seventy years ago, occurred that massacre in which was spilled 



some, of 'the best blood of Kentucky, and as a 

 the page of history with a crime and treachery

were a trifle softened by the. ardent rays 01 oiu sol, and rnigl 

 under some circumstances have made the drive some wh at "of 

 a "spatterwork picture," but the three miles •.. ; .veisel 

 before we had time to comment on it, and we. drew up at the. 

 gate of "Davidson Lod-_;e," where. Frank ic, a "chip of the old 

 block," relieved us of the ponies, while, we wanned our lingers 

 and toasted our shins at the. hospitable lire indoors. 



Of course, the. first thing to be done, was bo inspect the really 

 magnificent kennel, which comprises some of the best, stock in 

 America. John has had many fine lots of dogs, but I not con- 

 fident, as I told him, he has never shown tiie equal of the 

 present collection of upwards of twenty-ti . e aniin ids. At my 

 request he brought them out and "put them through the 

 motions." 



The first brace out were Scottish Chief, a black, white and 

 tan, by Prince of Orange out of Doll; and Prince Charlie, a 

 blue and tan, by Afton out of DoU. The first-named is a mag- 

 nificent looking dog, with the speed and style of a thorough- 

 bred of the highest class, and lc-. owner's favorite of Ms ken- 

 nel. The latter is a very pretty little auiinaE also a very 

 speedy and wide ranger. The second brace were nearly white, 

 whose snowy coat was gently flecked as with rain I e 

 were Johnnie Faa t by Rob Roy out of Doll, and Swan, by 

 Druid out of Lady Cypress. 



The next brace were Abbey, a white, black and tan, by
