THE NEW HAVEN SHOW. 



THE third annual bench show of the New Haven Kennel 

 Club opened Tuesday, March 30, with 400 and odd entries, 

 and is now in progress, closing to-morrow evening. The ex- 

 hibition is in the drill room of the Second Regiment Armory, a 

 building which is unsurpassed by any other outside of New 

 York for bench show purposes. The quality of the dogs is 

 very good; they are well benched, and the "management is 

 excellent in every respect. The rainy weather interfered 

 with the attendance on Tuesday, but a fair number were 

 present. The judging progressed through nearly all of the 

 classes Tuesday, and was completed yesterday. A list of the 

 awards is given herewith:

THE IRISH SETTER CLUB. 



AT a meeting of prominent breeders and owners of the 

 Irish setter at the Continental Hotel, Newark, N t J., on 

 March 29, a club was organized for the purpose of improve- 

 ment of the breed and the development of their hold quali- 

 ties. Following is a list of the officers : President, William 

 Dunphy, Peekskill, N. Y. ; Vice-President, Max Wenzel, 

 Hoboken, N. J,; Secretary, Luke W. White, Bridgeport, 

 Conn. ; Treasurer, I. H. Roberts, Morristown, N. J. A com- 

 mittee on constitution and by-laws, consisting of Dr. Wm. 

 Jarvis, Claremont. N. H. ; F. G. Leroy, New York: H. T. Hen- 

 shaw, Brooklyn, N. Y., andW. H. Pierce, Peekskill, N. Y., 

 was appointed. The initiation fees were fixed at §5, with $5 

 annual dues. Twenty members subscribed, and undoubtedly 

 manv more will join. The meeting adjourned to meet at 

 New* York May 5, at 8 P. M. 



AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB. 



A MEETING of the executive committee of the American 

 Kennel Club was held at Newark on Wednesday, March 

 24. The clubs represented were: New Haven, by L. L. Mor- 

 gan; Westminster, by T. H. Terry; Cleveland, by C. J. Peshall 

 (proxy); New Jersey, C. J. Peshall; Hartford, E. K. Sperry; 

 Philadelphia. W. H. Child. Elliot Smith, President; E. Com- 

 fort, Treasurer, and G. E. Osborn, Secretary. were also present, 

 The minutes of the previous meeting and the treasurer's 

 report, were read and accepted. Mr. Morgan read a long 

 report as chairman of the committee on discipline, rela ting 

 his difficulties in getting any business done. The executive 

 committee then took up the St. Elmo and Miro protests. In 

 the former case St. Elmo was disqualified as winner of first at 

 New York last year, and First Choice was declared the winner 

 in the open St. Bernard class. The Miro protest was not 

 allowed. 



Mr. Smith being unable to remain longer, Mr. Childs was 

 elected chairman. 



The following resolution, proposed by Mr. Peshall, was 

 passed unanimously: "That when a protest has been decided 

 by a club, it maybe then and there appealed to the local 

 member of the A. K C. representing said club, who shall at 

 once decide on the appeal, subject to the final appeal of the 

 executive committee of the A. K. C." 



Mr. Wade preferred charges against the I llin ois Kennel 

 Club for non-payment of a special prize. As the club had 

 been expelled the papers were ordered placed on file. 



Mr. McAlees presented a complaint against the Western 

 Pennsvlvania Society for transferring a puppy entered in the 

 open class to the puppy class. The secretary was instructed 

 to inform Mr. McAlees that the transfer was wroogly made, 

 and not in accordance with the A. K. C. rules. 



Moved by Mr, Morgan and carried, ^that the words ''and 

 shall be published in the catalogue" be' added to Rule 8. 



Moved by Mr. Osboru and earned, that a committee of 

 three be appointed to make up a list of shows whose awards 

 shall be recognized by the A. K. C. The committee is Elliot 

 Smith, C. J. Peshall and L. L. Morgan. 



Mr. Watson brought to the notice of the committee the case 

 of his having entered a protest at the Pittsburgh show against 

 the Sans Souci Kennels in accordance with a telegram re- 

 ceived from Mr. Long, of St. Louis, which protest was with- 

 drawn by Mr. John W. Munson without any authority what- 

 ever. The committee having no appeal from Mr. Long, 

 simply expressed the opinion that Mr. Munson's course was 

 perfectly unjustifiable. 



The representative of the New Jersey Kennel Club was by 

 vote instructed that his club had power to decide the protest 

 against the Sans Souci Kennels lodged at their show. 



The committee adjourned to meet on Wednesday of the 

 New York show week, at 2 P. M.

 Rice vhc. in the Dandie Dinmont class, with Bobbie Burns 

 and Cleg II., at Pittsburgh, which should be James Rae vhc, 

 with Habbie II. and Cleg IL, as Bobbie Burns met with an

 Mr. C. M. Munhall, room 25, Washington Building, Cleve- 

 land, O. 



BENCH SHOW RECORD IN CATALOGUE S. — Editor 

 Forest and Stream: I have a queiy to put to you which, in 

 the present season of bench shows is, I think, decidedly perti- 

 nent. In many catalogues of the dogs entered the perform- 

 ances of some of them are given in full. Now, it is undoubt- 

 edly in the discretion of the club , whether they shall print 

 these or not. But is it in their discretion, in ordinary fairness 

 and justice, to print the list given of performances of one 

 entry and to omit those given in another ' Has not every 

 exhibitor the same right in this respect? I know of three 

 instances where this has been done, and I wish to know if it 

 is right.— T. B. Dorset. 



BELGRAVE PRIMROSE.— New York, March 27. 1886.— 

 Editor Forest and Sti-eam: We hear that at the Pittsburgh 

 show it was asserted that Belgrave Primrose was not eligible 

 for the champion class. We had not noticed that it was 

 necessary to put the winnings in the entry form. We beg to 

 state that his winnings in this country are : First, open class, 

 New York; first, open class, Philadelphia, 1884, and first, open 

 class, Non-Sporting show, New York, 1885. — L. & W. Ruther- 



FURD. 



AMERICAN SPANIEL CLUB.— March 24.— Editor Forest

 jy the secretary for puppies whelped between the 1st of Jan- 

 uary, 18S6, and date of this announcement if mailed, with

THE SPECIAL POINTER PRIZE AT THE ALEXAN- 

 DRIA TRIALS.— Editor Forest and Stream: In your report

 special prize of a $25 silver collar to the pointer displaying 

 best natural qualities was won by Mr. Amory R. Starr's black

 Aged Stake. Will you kindly make this insertion?— J. R. 

 Thornton, Secretary Alexandria Rod and Gun Club. 



PRICE PAID FOR GRAPHIC— New York, March 27.—

 forming me what Mr. Charles Heath paid Mr. Anthony for 

 the imported pointer dog Graphic. I have been informed 

 that he paid over $2,700 for it. Am I correctly informed ?— 

 Geo. T. Leach. [Mr. Heath informed us at the time of the 

 sale that the price paid was $?,000. See Forest and Stream 

 Nov. 19, 1885.1 



AN ABSENTEE.— Editor Forest and Stream: I see that 

 the daily papers and you, in your last issue, give my Major as 

 having received he. at the recent Newark dog show. The 

 dog was somewhat out of condition just previous to the show, 

 and I did not send him to Newark. He could not, therefore, 

 have been passed upon by the judge.— W. Burke (New York, 

 March 27). 



THE HEMPSTEAD FARM CO. -We understand that the 

 Hempstead Farm Co., which was noticed last week as having 

 purchased the collies owned by Mr. Thomas H. Terry, will 

 pay especial attention to the breeding of these animals, and 

 that no expense will be spared to procure the best, and to 

 maintain the high reputation of the kennel.

HARYSV1LLE, Cal . March 14.— To day was very unpleasant for 

 marksmen on account of the chopping, blustering north wmd. Never- 

 theless very good shooting was done. The following are the best 

 scores at the 200yds. range: 



Manning 4455545544-45 Wescott. 4443o4444a-4t 



White 5451544454-44 Sibley 444444o5M-41 



Colford .54*4454344-12 F Bryden 4444343354-3S 



Holland 4454344454-41 . _ 



The shooting -was good throughout the day, and the closer to the 

 center of the bullseye the thicker the bullets were planted in the tar- 

 get.
