ONTARIO COLLIE SHOW AND FIELD TRIALS. 
HE Ontario Collie Club came into existence during the 
Toronto bench show, held last March, and they seized the 
occasion of the Semi-Centennial Exposition in Toronto this 
month, to haye their inaugural show, coupled with which they 
also instituted a field trial for collies. The result was a trium- 
phant success, and tens of thousands of spectators gazed with 
eager interest on the field trials, which were held in front of 
the grand stand in the inclosure used as a track for speeding 
the horses, showing the cattle, etc. 
The officers of the Collie Club deserve high praise for their 
spirit and enterprise in offering a magnificent list of prizes, 
and the complete success of their undertaking is only a just 
reward of their efforts, and insures the event being hereafter 
an annual one. Nearly every member of the committee 
worked cheerfully and with energy to make everything run 
smoothly, and it seems inyidious to particularize where all 
did so well, but Captain Harston is undoubtedly worthy a 
special vote of thanks for his usefulness. 
FIELD TRIALS. 
The field trials were commenced on Tuesday, the" 16th inst., 
at 1 o’clock, and an hour was devoted on that day and on the 
two following days to testing the dogs. The judge selected 
was Mr. John Dayidson, of Monroe, Mich., who is an old-time 
fayorite in Toronto, where he has many friends. Ten sheep 
were picked out of a flock, and two pens were erected near 
the grand stand, five sheep being placed in each. The pro- 
pramme laid out by the judge was the following: The sheep 
in each pen were to be driven alternately by the dogs, until 
each dog in the competition had taken the sheep up the center 
of the field, and through a gate made by placing two hurdies 
about ten feet apart; afterward taking the sheep round a flag 
post, and return between a bank and rail fence separated by 
a few feet, on the southerly side of the grounds, the dog to 
drive them into the pen from which they were taken. The 
shepherd was allowed to accompany his dog and to use his 
dog as he would, under ordinary circumstances, at his work. 
Points of merit were to be awarded according to the display 
of obedience, intelligence, gentleness, and expedition exhibited 
by each competitor. The prizes were, first, $25; second, 515; 
third, $8, for dogs, and the same amounts in another class for 
bitches, Six dogs were entered, but the Agricultural College 
dog, Conrad, a very handsome collie that won first prize in 
the bench show competition, was withdrawn, 
First Trial.—The first trial was made by McKenzie’s Hero, 
who made quite a fiasco of it, either from want of experience, 
or being frightened by the noise and appearance of the im- 
mense crowd of spectators. He was also withdrawn by his 
master, who had another, and as it proyed; a better dog in 
the competition. 
Second Trial—W. Newton’s Bob had the misfortune to be 
worked by a stranger, his master not being present, and he 
performed very indifferently, The sheep were very wild, 
and he chased them all over the field without apparently 
being able to control them. He was taken off without pen- 
ning the sheep, and he was altogether too rough for such a 
competition as the present. ; 
Therd Trial.cSkain’s Jack is a bobtail English sheep dog, 
and did some very fair work during the drive, but he made 
rather a mess of it when his sheep got huddled up against the 
fence on the lower side, and hs took to biting the sheep to get 
them away. After all he succeeded in penning the sheep in 
nine minutes, his work at the pen being quite worthy of credit, 
Fourth Trial.—MeKenzie’s Sly did little or nothing, because 
the sheep seemed very tame, and literally went around the 
course with almost nv interference. He showed cleverness at 
the pen. Time, four minutes, 
Fifth Trial.Telier’s Speed betrayed great intelligence, 
wonderful speed and singular cautiousness. He worked hard, 
obeying every motion of the shepherd’s hand, and the sheep 
neyer were allowed a chance to stray more than a few yards 
from the course. His work was loudly applauded, and 1t was 
really a great treat to see such a praiseworthy exhibition, 
which the farmers present were not slow to appreciate. Time, 
three minutes, 
SECOND DAY. 
A longer course was staked out, and the same dogs were 
again put down, reversin, the order of the previous day’s run-. 
ning. Speed again made a brilliant drive and penned in six 
minutes without a mistake, Sly followed with an indifferent 
performance, penning in ten minutes. Jack did yery well, a 
reat improvement on his previous form; time, eleven minutes. 
Bob was taken off again for being too rough for sheep driving. 
He might be a very useful dog for cattle but was quite out of 
place in a trial on sheep. 
THIRD DAY. 
Speed penned in three minutes and a halt, in excellent style. 
Sly did the round successfully and in ee a Meritorious man- 
ner in eight minutes, and the bobtail, Jack, finished his task in 
eleven minutes, doing some yery fair work. 
Only two bitches, out of four entries, competed for the 
handsome prizes offered. Seymour’s Fan behaved bea indif- 
ferently, and took ifteen minutes to drive the round, Moore's 
Jessie beating her time by seven minutes, and seer ane a 
much higher class of work, The prizes were awarded as fol- 
lows: te 
ape to Speed, owned by Thos. pelea 
Dogs—First and 1 é : 
second to Sly, owned by D. McKenzie; third to Jack, owne 
by J. Skain. 
George Norbury Ap 
Bitches—First withheld; second to Jessie, owned by Thos. 
Moore; third to Fan, owned by Geo, Seymour. 
After the trials were over, the owner of Speed exhibited 
him at some special feats which Mr, Davidson set for him 
such as picking ont individual sheep from the flock, and 
created quite a furore by his wonderful training. 
BENCH SHOW. 
Over fifty dogs were benched, and the tent was thronged 
by thousands of visitors daily, The yeteran John Davidson 
judged single-handed, and his awards were, as usual, impar- 
tial and correct, 
For the championship in rough-coated collies (dogs), there 
Was a Severe competition between Lorne and Herdsman Lad- 
die, the latter being in decidedly the best condition, both in 
body and coat, but the taking head and general collie charac- 
ter of Lorne could not be denied, and he won the prize. 
In open rough-coated dogs a clinker appeared in Conrad, 
who is avery showy black and tan. His head and ears are 
grand, and his body, legs, feet and flag are unimpeachable, 
although his coat was not looking its best, but he will haye a 
first-rate coat when at his best. The second prize fell to Sly, 
who also won second in the field trials, and he is quite a good 
looking black and white, smart and well-bred in appearance. 
Third went to Collie, a very fair dog indeed, and vhe. to Jack, 
who ran into third place at the trials, 
In open rough-coated bitches, Miss Timmins, a good sable, 
Was soon seen to be the hest, although in bad coat and shown 
too fat. Second was won by Lassie, a very nice little black 
and tan, although her ears were a bit heavy and her coat in- 
clined to be settery. Rothera’s Leila-was out of coat, but 
showed good character, and won third prize. He, to Me- 
Ewan’s Lassie, a fair bitch, 
_In rough-coated puppies we were introduced to a very good 
light sable dog, imported by Mr. Burland. His sire is cham- 
pion Chance, and he bids fair to be a worthy scion of his well- 
nown father, A pair shown by Mr, Rothera deserved their 
tickets, vhe. and he., but were too young to show to much ad- 
vantage. The others were not of much merit. 
The next class was smooth and medium-coated collies, in 
which Mrs, Harston’s old Driver appeared alone in all his 
glory. The old dog wears wonderfully, and does not look 
more than six years, although twice that age. 
The open class for smooth collies, dogs, brought out Jack 
and Robin, both good yellow and white collies, got by cham- 
pion Driver. The latter won, being better in stern and head 
than Jack. In bitches, Monsey’s Bess beat Harston’s Nell, 
the latter showing signsof age. Bess is an excelient bitch, 
and hard to beat in her own class. She has a rare good coat, 
which is short and smooth but very thick and heavy.

NATIONAL BREEDERS’ DOG SHOW. 
HKditor Forest and Stream; 
So many of the gentlemen exhibiting at the dog show held 
here last week asked for a closing of entries for the National 
Breeders’ show at a later date than Oct, 5 that, after consult- 
ing with Mr. Walter T. Dunnell, the manager, as to the latest 
date on which we can receive entries and yet get everything 
ready, it has been decided to alter the date of closing to Oct. 
10. We do not mean by this that every one intending enter- 
ing dogs should delay mailing their letters until Oct, 10, be- 
cause that will crowd us toomuch. The ‘‘copy” for the cata- 
logue must be handed to the printer on Monday morning, and 
at the same time every identification ticket with the accom 
panying tags must be mailed in order to have them reach ex- 
hibitorsin season, It will be » very close call, and it is most 
desirable that exhibitors mail their entries so as to reach me 
on the day of closing. 
The responses of the railway companies to the request for 
free transportation of dogs are nearly all received, and next 
week the particulars of these concessions will be announced. 
Respecting special prizes I am pleased to be able to state 
that I have within the past two days received the sum of 
three hundred dollars with which to purchase prizes, In ad- 
dition to these specials, there will be a number of others and if 
I can have any say in the matter at all, they will be placed so 
as to be worth winning, Some of our exhibitors will remember 
the very handsome Crystal Palace medal won by Mr, J, H. 
Goodsell at Washington in 1883, for the best sporting dog in 
the show. It has never been equalled as a dog show medal in 
this country, and Mr, Goodsell has kindly loaned it me for the 
purpose of haying a cast made for the stud dog and breeders? 
medal, Itis more than a medal; itis a work of art, 
from the number of applications received for premium lists 
it is evident that the Breeder’s Show is benefitting from the 
notices given it, and up to date I haye received forty-seven 
entries—just about forty more than I could haye expected at 
this early date. The Ontario Collie Club, as a mark of their 
appreciation of the appointment of a special judge, will make 
an entry of five or six collies, and from all along the line come 
messages of good words, “I like your way of getting up the 
premium list, everything isso clear.” “Congratulations upon 
such a prize list.” “What puzzles me is how you got such a 
splendid lot of judges.” ‘Your premium list only needs gilt 
edges to make it a typographical daisy.” ‘‘As a mark of my 
appreciation of your selection of judges please accep the 
inclosed check for $25 which give as a special in any way you 
see fit.” JAMES WATSON, Secretary.
