NEW JERSEY KENNEL CLUB.— A meeting of the New 

 Jersey Kennel and Field Trials Club was held May 35 at Jersey 

 City. Those, present were: Percy C. Ohl, Geo." L. Wilms, E, 

 R. 'Hearn, A. P. Vredenburgh, * J. H. Phelan, K. E. Hopf, 

 James Lindsay, A. C. Wilmerding, Louis Brigham, H. C. 

 Sherman, G. W. McNeil and H. Pape. The following gentle- 

 men were selected to pass on the names of persons for mem- 

 bership: Messrs. Lindsay, McNeil, Vredenburgh, Ohl and 

 Pape. They reported favorably on twenty-eight names, and 

 these were elected. After slight revision the constitution was 

 adopted, Officers: President, Chas. Heath, Newark; Vice- 

 President, C. J. Peshall, Jersey City. Secretary, A. P. Vred- 

 en lurgh, Bergen Point, and Treasurer, E. B. Hearn, Passaic. 

 With a view to give representation in the. executive committee 

 of persons from all over the State, and that each breed of 

 dogs should have its champion, the committee elected was: 

 Max Wenzsl, P. C. Ohl, J. Lindsay, Geo. L. Wilms, K. E. 

 Hopf. N. E. Hamilton, G. W. La Rue, W. W. Tucker, L. F. 

 Brigham, A. C. Wilmerding and J. D. Shotwell. A committee, 

 Messrs. La Rue, Wilmerding and Wilms, was appointed to draft 

 suitable by-laws to be referred to the executive committee 

 for adoption. The new club starts well, and promises to en- 

 liven dog matters in New Jersey, as it contemplates giving 

 both annual dog shows and field trials. 



SPRINGFIELD, Mass , claims to be ahead of most other 

 places in its appreciation of good dogs. Says the Republican: 

 "It was not a startling scene just about dusk the other day 

 that made foot passengers in a little alley in this city stop and 

 stare into a dark coiner. There was nothing there but a dirty. 

 tired little newsboy who had sunk into a restless doze with 

 his ragged cap pulled over his eyes— and close beside the 

 dreaming urchin a pert little terrier, keenly watching every 

 living thing that approached with an air that betrayed an in- 

 tent to defend with the whole of his fiery little body the 

 bundle of papers that lay at the boy's side. There was not 

 much to the picture, to be sure, but somehow or other nearly 

 every one gazed at it with a curious eye, and not a few smiled 

 at the comically fierce attitude of the dog. It was a bit of the 

 doggish which would have delighted to its uttermost the soul 

 of good old John Brown, whose friendship for Rab is well-nigh 

 immortal. The popular interest, too. centered rather in the 

 dog than the boy, and no doubt aroused in the mind of more 

 than one thoughts of stories heard before, touching canine 

 fidelity and intelligence. The link of attachment between 

 man and dog is a stout one and more firmly welded in this 

 chw than in perhaps half the places of its size in the country." 



DEATH OF MAID A.— The well-known setter bitch Maida 

 owued by Dr. S. Fleet Speir, died last week at Robins Island! 

 She was ~% years old. Her sire, Dick, was of a capital strain 

 of native English setter, and her dam was the Gordon bitch 

 Clio. Maida was a grand field dog, as her public performances 

 testify. We can pay no better tribute to her memorv than 

 to quote our comments upon the heat between her and Grouse 

 Dale at Robins Island, in November, 1881: "Both dogs worked 

 splendidly, pointing in grand style, and backing superbly. It 

 is very rare that one sees such good work as this. We were 

 nearly fagged with the hard trampmg that had been done 

 but from the time that Maida had opened the ball until they 

 were taken up, 'we were a boy again,' and although lunch in- 

 tervened, we felt no fatigue, and even now our pulse quickens 

 and the very ends of our fingers tingle as we review the scenes 

 and incidents of this well- contested struggle for supremacy. 

 We shall long remember the graceful evolutions and intelli- 

 gent performance of this wonderfid brace of dogs." 



FOX-TERRIER PEDIGREES.— Editor Forest and Stream: 

 Concerning "Fox-Terrier's" notice of erroneous entries of our 

 bitch Clover Blossom, as regards pedigree, I would say that 

 Clover Blossom's pedigree should read either "Bv Dynamite 

 Joe ex Puzzle" or "by Dynamite Joe (late Catesby)" ex Puzzle," 

 and Clover Fidget's pedigree as "by Belgrave Tony exTrick- 

 sey." Such pedigrees as have appeared differently are er- 

 roneous and were occasioned doubtless by haste in writin°- 

 entries. Subsequent to the entry in the American Kennel 

 Register, I noticed in the Stud columu of the Fox- Terrier 

 Chronicle that Catesby was now known as Dynamite Joe. 

 Wherefore the appellation. — Clovernook Kennel. 



TORONTO DOG SHOW.— London, Ont., May 22.— Editor 

 Forest and Stream: Your reporter on the above show needs 

 a little information before he so sweepingly condemns my 

 judging of the spaniel bitch class. I may state that the dogs 

 of Mr. Carter did not arrive in time forjudging. I never saw 

 Lady Mack off the bench; Sport, Jr., I was asked to give 

 second prize to, which I withheld; I did so several hours after 

 the classes were judged. One of the best puppies, Jill, I 

 never saw till late in the evening, and the same 1 can say of 

 Princess Tiney, she was not in the ring and was marked 

 absent. — J. S. Niven. 



PENNSYLVANIA.— Pennsylvania Fish Commissioners Gay 

 of Greensburg, and Porter, of Cony, were at Erie last week 

 and arranged for securing a large quantity of rock bass from 

 the bay with which to stock the head waters of the Schuyl- 

 kill and Susquehanna rivers. This is a move in the right 

 direction, and we have not the slightest doubt but that the 

 attempt to stock our waters with this fish will prove success-

 he has secured the services of Mr. H. W. Lacy to take charge 

 of the Winlawn Kennels, and that he will at once assume the 

 entire management.

WHEELING, W. Va., May 24. -The Wheeling Rifle Club held their 

 first practice shoot yesterday on the new range justfio'shed on the 

 old Fair Ground on the Island. This is the first good range the club 

 ever had, the ground in this section being so very hilly that a level 

 range is hard to find. The present range, however, is as level and 

 pleasant as the famous Creedmoor, and sliding targets and a good , 

 solid back wall to stop the lead have been erected during the past 

 week, and shooting bids fair to be more popular than cv-r here this 

 year. Anew club has been organized during the past winter, under 

 the name of the Wheeling Scliuetzen, and gallery practice has been 

 kept up. so the members are now about to make their first irtal at 

 the 200yds. range on the Island, which wiU b? used by both clubs, 

 The following are the scores of the Wheeling Rifle Club of 3'esterday,

 lead, and won the match with the highest score attained by any team 

 in a match. Mr. Jackson, of the Celluloid Rifle Club, acted as referee
