crowd blocked the road-way, A dozen little curs were set on 

 his heels, and the doer started on a alow run down the road, 

 along after him on horseback. The crowd 

 back to the hotel and the dogs were chained up to wait 

 the bloodthirsty animal had been pone an hour, when 

 at the rate of speed he was under way when he disappeared 

 iuld have been about two miles 'away. The deer, how- 

 is said to have exhibited considerable mettle after get- 

 ting away from the crowd of men and the snarliugs of the 

 petty cms, and dashed away at a lively rate across the coun- 

 try." About forty minutes after his disappearance down the 

 road the dogs were turned loose on the trail. Kuss, owned by 

 H Miller, of Bedford, took the lead early in the chase, and in 

 u two hours overtook the. deer in a field near Bedford. 

 Hookavvav's dog was close behind with one of Stanton's 

 hounds a" good third. Men in sleighs and on horseback li ad 

 followed the general course pursued by the dogs, and were 

 i on the spot, The animal's throat was cut and he was 

 loaded into a sleigh and taken to Gray's Hotel, Bedford, where 

 one of the quarters was cut up into steaks, broiled and passed 

 I among the hunters. 



THE PHILADELPHIA KENTSEL CLUB. -In the Kennuel 

 di partment of Forest and Stream you stated, in reference to 

 bhe non-holding of a bench show tins year by the Philadel- 

 phia Kennel Club, that ''it' an exhibition was not to be given 



uii id not imaaine for what purpose the society was or- 

 ganized." I have been talking to several members of the club 

 and feel that the executive committee was perfectly justifi- 

 able iu reporting against tliegiving of a bench show tins year 

 and to wait until a better organization was effected. The pres- 



■ciety is composed of the members of the old and par- 

 ties, as it were, of another, and is, in a certain sense, the join- 

 ing Of two clubs. The great object in view in answer to your 



ion is the holding of successful dog shows each year. 

 Which of course tends to improve, and perfect the different 

 is of sporting and non-sporting clogs. When the Philadel- 

 phia Kennel Club can secure the proper building aud has 

 thoroughly perfected its organization a show second to none 

 will be held each yeai\ The society has now sixty odd mem- 

 bers and comfortable rooms for meeting and social intercourse, 

 and those whose names are on the roll are practical sportsmen 

 who, if the truth was known, wouid much rather discuss the 

 merits of the setter and pointer in the field thau on the bench.

THE GERMAN DOGGE.— Pittsburgh. Pa., Jan. 24.- 

 ;■ Forest and Stream: In last week's issue of Forest 

 and Stream a short piece headed "The German Dogge," 

 claims that an article written by me some time since on the 

 "Great Dane" has "manv geographical as well as canine mis- 

 takes." Let us dissect his first charge. By running my eye 

 pyer the article in question I see the sentence, "In Germany, 

 at Aix, and in Prussia," this being the only geographical men- 

 tion. I presume my accuser must refer to this when he says, 

 "Aix la Chapelle belongs to Prussia," and then says. "Prussia 

 is in the great German Empire," two important truths which 

 I do not, nor never have denied nor affirmed. So much for 

 the "geographical mistakes." As regards the remainder, Mr. 

 Solms, of the Austrian Consulate, translated the words 

 "Deutsche Dogge" as "German dog," and I respectfully refer 

 the gentleman to him for further argument.— E. P. Hodges. 



SALE OF RECTOR.— Mr. J. K. Emmet, the well-known 

 actor, has purchased the rough-coated St. Bernard dog Rector, 

 recently imported by Mr. E. R. Hearn, of Passaic, N. J. 

 Rector is the largest known dog in the world, measuring close 

 to thirty-five inches, standard, at the shoulders, and when 

 sold weighed 195 pounds. During the past year he was very 

 successful at the English shows, in the hands of Mr. S. W. 

 Smith, and he certainly is a most commanding dog. His de- 

 fective point is his head, which tapers so much as to quite 

 deprive him of the dignity so much desired in a St. Bernard. 

 In all other respects he is a splendid specimen, and is worthy 

 of the encomiums bestowed on him by Col. Stuart Taylor, in 

 his letters to Forest and Stream. The price paid was $4,000. 



EASTERN FIELD TRIAL CLUB.— At the annual meeting 

 of the Eastern Field Trial Club held on Jan. 22, it was voted 

 to close the entries for the Derby of 1884. on the 1st of May. 

 The report of the treasurer shows that the club is in a very 

 prosperous condition. Following is a list of the. officers for 

 the ensuing year: President, Elliot Smith: Vice-Presidents, 

 Henry F. Ate'n, M.D., J. Otto Donner: Treasurer and Secre- 

 tary. Washington A. Coster: Board of Governors. S. Fleet 

 Speir, M.D., Chas. H. Raymond, A. E. Godeffroy, H. E Ham- 

 ilton, R. C. Cornell. George DeF. Grant, George T. Leach, 

 Jno. Heekscher. Jno. E. I. Gringer, J. W. Orth, D. S. Gregory, 

 Jr. , Alexander Taylor, Jr. 



THE PHILADELPHIA KENNEL CLUB.— Edi tor Forest 

 and Stream: The Philadelphia Kennel Club have secured 

 pleasant and roomy quarters at 138 Market street for their own 

 use and are now in a nourishing condition. The club now has 

 seventy members on the roll and have an active executive com- 

 mittee. It has been decided best not to hoH a bench show the 

 Bpming spring, but hope to in the future, when it will become 

 a fixture here. The rooms of the club are made attractive 

 and all the leading papers are subscribed to and are on hie. 

 Besides the regular meeting nights, one evening a week is 

 spent by the members in social enjoyment.— W.H. Ashbctrner, 

 Corresponding Secretary. 



THE GILROY FIELD TRIALS.— San Francisco, Cal — 



-Editor Forest and Stream: I note in your report of the Gil- 

 roy trials that it has been edited so carefully as to make it 

 inaccurate in several little points. At page 400 of Forest 

 and Stream, where the. report of the running of the second 

 brace in the Puppy Stake is given, my recollection is that 

 Paine's Belle was described as a smooth collie. That is what 

 she is, and I was anxious to have her appear as such, because 

 her owner manufactured a pedigree for her, and may think 

 now that your reporter could not tell a collie from a Gordon. 

 — Francisco. 



NEW HAVEN DOG SHOW.— The bench show to be held 

 in New Haven next March, under the auspices of the New 

 Haven Kennel Club, will undoubtedly bring out a large 

 number of dogs. The classification, with one or two minor 

 exceptions, is similar to that of the last show of the West- 

 minster Kennel Club. The prizes will be silver medals, suit- 

 ably engraved, for the champion and first, and bronze medals 

 for second prizes. Mr. James Watson will judge the setters, 

 pointers, spaniels and hounds, and Mr. James Mortimer the 

 remaining classes. " 



THE DOGS MUST GO if they are advertised for sale in the 

 Forest and Stream. See what Mr. Elmore says (in Kennel 

 Notes), and here is a hue from Mr. George Laick. who recently 

 advertised two dogs: "Please say to many inquirers that 1 

 have sold both my dogs, one twenty-four hours after the ad- 

 vertisement came out and both inside of ten days after. I 

 have had a great many letters froin all parts of the country 

 from my advertisement in Forest and Stream,— George 

 Laick (is orth Tarrytown, N. Y.). 



STOLEN. —On the night of Dec. 16, some one stole from the 

 Rory Q'More Kennel, Albany, N. Y., the red Irish setter bitch 

 Lady. She has a small white spot on breast, and is heavy in 

 whelp. Mr. Calender offers $5UQ reward for information that 

 will lead to the conviction of the thief and the recovery of the 

 bitch. 



THE LARGE POINTER CHALLENGE. -Luzerne, Pa., 



Jan. 27. Editor Forest and Stream: J have just learned of 

 the acceptance of my challenge by Mr. C, H. Mason with Ins 

 dog Beaufort. Owing to some mistake or delay our news- 

 dealer failed to receive the issue of Forest and Stream 

 which contained Mr. Mason's reply, so I know nothing of its 

 character. It gives me great pleasure to think that I shall 

 have an Opportunity to show my dog against Beaufort. It is 

 my honest belief that in a fair and impartial trial 1 can beat 

 hihi. If I am beaten I will accept the defeat like a man. A 11 

 I ask is, no matter where the competition takes place, that I 

 get fair play.— Geo. W. Fisher.

 Forest and Stream, there are many others— from whom we seldom

 confess to a large degree of selfishness iu this, for I have arrived at 

 that point when 1 must get the most of sporting pleasure from the 

 experience of others. So 'keep up it.e motion 1' "
