JUDGES AS COMPETITORS. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



It seems to me that one feature of the Alexandria Field 

 Trials, as reported in your issue of March 4, ought not to pass 

 without censure. I refer to the fact that two of the judges 

 owned competing dogs. It seems to have been thought that 

 so long as these gentlemen did not act as judges in the heats in 

 which their dogs ran, there was no objection to the arrange- 

 ment. All the other competitors may have been quite satis- 

 fied with the way the business was done, but then again they 

 may not, and it is not fair to put upon any competitor the 

 necessity of objecting to improprieties on the part of the 

 judges. 



The reasons why judges ought not to be competitors are the 

 following: In the first place, so long as a judge's dog is in the 

 race, it is his interest to decide every heat in favor of the 

 worse dog ; that is, in favor of the dog that his own would be 

 most likely to beat. Then again, Judge A might easily be 

 tempted to give Judge B's dog every advantage, and indis- 

 posed to judge him with severe impartiality, when it will 

 directly be Judge B's turn to pass on Judge A's dog. It is not 

 a sufficient answer to say that any particular judges are high- 

 minded men who would not let themselves be influenced by 

 such considerations. Honorable men ought not to let them- 

 selves be placed in positions where their interests conflict with 

 their duty. Every competitor has a right to have judges who 

 not only are fair, but also who have no interest in being 

 otherwise. S. H.

NEW HAVEN KENNEL CLUB. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



I want to thank you for the earnest support that you are 

 giving our show this year, as in the past. We feel your influ- 

 ence every year, but never more than this present one, when 

 at least two so-called"sporting papers" do all in their power 

 to injure us, one for no known reason except to keep up its 

 record, and the other, I believe, because we would not accept 

 the judges suggested by the editor. This same paper is also 

 against us because its editor objects to one of our judges: but 

 in a personal letter to me acknowledges him to be one of the 

 best judges in the country, and thinks by another year that he 

 will be acknowledged so by every one, but thinks we would 



do better to ask Mr. and Mr. this year. I think 



our selection of judges is approved by all true lovers of dogs 

 and men of judgment; at least our entry book proves it to be 

 so to our satisfaction. The classes are filling up rapidly, and 

 especially Messrs. Mason's and Davidson's. We shall have 

 more specials than ever, and we shall tiy to make "the boys 

 happy." If some persons who are working against us on 

 account of not being friendly with Mr. Mason are not careful, 

 I shall not feel called upon to consider as confidential some 

 letters received by me previous to our selection of judges, and 

 shall give them to the public. We are considering some new 

 ideas as to benching and bedding the dogs, but have decided 

 upon nothing as yet. Again thanking you for your endeavors 

 in our behalf, 1 remain, as ever, Ci. Edw. Osborn, 



Brest. New Haven Kennel Club. 



A BREEDERS' ASSOCIATION. — Editor Forest and 

 Stream: As the breeding of thoroughbred dogs has become a 

 source of wealth and has developed into a business of con- 

 siderable magnitude, I wish, through your paper, to suggest 

 to brother sportsmen of our country a scheme whereby we 

 may establish a large breeding kennel for all classes of dogs, 

 and place ourselves in a position to obtain the very finest 

 specimens of the breed we most prefer, at a moderate figure. 

 Select an island, I have one in view (400 acres), let each par- 

 ticipant either furnish dollars as a share in the company, 



or a thoroughbred bitch of unquestionable breeding of the 

 kind he desires, to keep and place on said island for breeding 

 purposes, in the hands of a keeper, and if any owner of a 

 thoroughbred dog let him be allowed to place him on the 

 island for the same purpose, though only one dog of a kind to 

 be admitted and to be the stud dog for that breed for the 

 island. Then gentlemen who have taken the trouble and borne 

 the expense to import or purchase good bitches will have a 

 place to send them, save the annoyance of breeding, and dis- 

 posing of those they may not require. One competent man 

 can be the servant of many owners. Let those who think 

 well of it speak through your paper.— Breeder.

THE BOSTON DOG SHOW. — Editor Forest and Stream: 

 Arrangements for the transportation of dogs to the coming 

 bench show of the New England Kennel Club, at Boston, 

 April G to 9, have been made with the express and railway 

 companies as follows: American, U. S. and Canada, Interna- 

 tional, United States, and New York & Boston Dispatch com- 

 panies have agreed to return to shippers free, all dogs that 

 may be sent to the show (in crates) in their charge, upon 

 which one full rate has been paid. Tbe Boston & Albany, 

 Boston & Lowell, Boston & Maine, Fitchburg, Old Colony and 

 Providence railroads will carry dogs free to and from the show 

 in baggage or smoking cars when accompanied by owner or 

 caretaker paying fare. Railroad companies to be released 

 from all liability from loss or injury. This arrangement to 

 hold from April 3 to 12 inclusive. The above arrangements 

 with the express companies covers nearly all points in the 

 United States, Canada and the British Provinces, while the 

 arrangements with the railroads cover New York city and 

 points in New England. Entries close March 20. 



THE CLEVELAND DOC SHOW.— The third dog show of 

 the Cleveland Bench Show Association will be held at the old 

 Tabernacle, Cleveland, O., April 27 to 30. Mr. L. G. Hanna 

 will be the manager and Mr. C. M. Munhall, superintendent. 

 Cleveland has always been popular with exhibitors, and as 

 the management will spare no pains to make this the best 

 show they have ever held, we have no doubt that the benches 

 will be well filled. 



MISTAKE IN PEDIGREE. — Editor Forest and Stream: 

 noticed an advertisement of a red Irish setter bitch with a 

 pedigree as follows. "By Dirk out of Maud II.," etc. This is 

 a mistake, for Maud has never been bred to Dirk untd within 

 a year, but was bred to Red, the sire of Dirk. I make the 

 correction to save future trouble in tracing the pedigree of 

 the coming generations.— Cal. .45. 



NEW HAVEN SPECIALS. — Editor Forest and Stream: In 

 specials sent you last week please change greyhounds to read: 

 Spratts Patent, dog collar and 100 pounds biscuit, we will put 

 the clock elsewhere. Spratts Patent has sent us rfOO pounds

New York, March 10, 1886. ) 

 Gentlemen— The competitions in rifle shooting between Great 

 Britain and America have done so much to develop an int.. i est in 

 marksmanship and to improve weapons, as well as to maintain a 

 friendlv rivalry between the two countries, that the National Rifle 

 Association of this country is anxious that they should be continued, 

 it has therefore, directed me to cordially invite you to send a team 

 of ei<*ht British volunteers to this country in September next to shoot 

 a return match against a team of American National Guardsmen, the 

 details to be settled by correspondence. 



Trusting that the difficulties which prevented your council from ac- 

 cepting the invitation last year no longer exist, I am, very sincerely 

 vours George W. Wingate. President N R A. U- S : 



to the Council of the Natiopal Rifle Association pf Great &r|tft»;
