FOREST AND STREAM 



[Jan. 26, 1888. 



WHY DOES THE A. K. C. EXIST? 



Editor For&st unci Stream: 



The answer of the toad-eating brigade to the above will 

 be, ''For the encouragement of doggy interests, protection 

 of dog shows, etc." But, most noble and mighty A. K. C, 

 do you really imagine the public thinks so? Truly you have 

 slept with lies, dwelt with humbug, and eaten and 'drunken 

 with schemers until you may really believe it yourself; and 

 many and constant are the high-sounding professions in 

 which you have enunciated this stupid platitude. But 

 don't you know that by your works you are .judged? Now, 

 in your whole career can yon. point to one instance where 

 you have interfered to protect a single exhibitor from in- 

 justice perpetrated on him by one of your members? 



You nave disqualified two exhibitors for offenses against 



beaten out of his money in the "Chicago special" business; 

 the "pointer judging" at New York was the most disgrace- 

 ful piece of business that was ever a part of a show: the 

 bogus medals twice swindled dozens of exhibitors; "Beau- 

 rort — Patti M." was a most flagrant outrage; "construction" 

 was a palpable and corrupt attempt to evade the plain re- 

 quirements of your own rules, and one of your members 

 openly carried out the nefarious scheme. 



Club after club has failed to pay its prizes; and did you 

 ever even censure one of your members for their plain trans- 

 gression of common honesty or justice? Did you not have 

 most careful reports made you in the bogus medals and 

 Chicago special cases, clearly establishing the cases of the 

 prosecution, and did you not table both of them ? Some of 

 these indictments against you have lapsed by time, in some 

 you have reversed your first wrong action; but have you 

 ever put yourself on record that you were ever willing to do 

 justice to a private individual against one of your members? 



These are pertinent questions, and flapdoodle never 

 answered a question yet; so don't depend on the lackey divi- 

 sion shutting our mouths with rot about "gentlemen";" you 

 know that there are no greater knaves in Christendon than 

 some ''gentlemen," 



I have given you plain facts, deny them if you can prove 

 your denial. Until you do so, how can you expect the aver- 

 age exhibitor to look on you as anything but a clique of 

 rings? Do you not know that the exhibitor generally has a 

 grudge at clubs? Has he not been the victim of some of the 

 knaveries or wrongs I hav« recited? Is it not natural that 

 he should think a club of clubs only a concentration of the 

 evils and tyrannies ho has suffered under? And to induce 

 him to believe that you are actuated by the most knightly 

 desire to befriend him, you require him to duff up 50 cents 

 for something he knows no more about than he does of 

 Druidical language! 



If the A. K. C. is to really live, it must show the exhibitor 

 that it has a little grace for him, that occasionally it remem- 

 bers that he has some part in the success of dog shows. I 

 dare you to show that you have ever, byword or deed, openly 

 or in private, showed the slightest inte'rest in the exhibitor, 

 further than to get his money for his entries. W. WADE.

UTICA DOG SHOW. — Brantford, Out,, Jan. 18.— Editor 

 Forest (ind Stream: I wish, through your columns, to ask 

 the management of the coming Ufcica show to alter the con- 

 ditions under which their kennel prizes are given viz 

 requiring each kennel to consist of "one dog and 'three 

 bitches." This practically shuts out all but the verv large 

 breeders, for even those who may have a number of good 

 bitches at home it is next to impossible to have three in fit 

 conditiou, as at least half would be out of condition at any 

 one time of year, either from raising a litter, being in heat 

 or heavy in pup— in which latter case one does not care to 

 risk a long journey. I would ask them to leave the sex 

 optional with exhibitors, or at least not require more than 

 two bitches to each kennel.— Chas. M. Nelles (Brant Cocker 

 Kennels), 



HEMPSTEAD COURSING CLUB. — Edito r Forest and 

 Stream: With the kind permission of the Meadow Brook

UTICA DOG SHOW.-Utica, N. Y.. Jan. ^.-Editor

 club will give in addition to kennel prizes in premium list 

 $10 for best kennel of beagles, cocker spaniels and grey- 

 hounds.— E. J. Spencer, Sec'y.

T 



THE BULLARD DETACHABLE MAGAZINE. 



HE enterprise of the Bullard Arms Company has brought out 

 a new device by which several objections most persistently 

 urged against the repeating rifle seem to be done away with. A 

 military Bullard rifle is so altered that Ihe magazine no longer 

 receives the cartridge, but the manner of loading is not changed, 

 and a cartridge being slipped into the loading orifice may be 

 thrown into the barrel in tbe usual way; then a second cartridge 

 being slipped in, the shooter has two charges ready. The opponents 

 of repeaters complain of the danger of an explosion of a cartridge 

 in the magazine, and of the change of balance which takes place 

 by the gradual using of the contents of the chamber. With this 

 gun used as a double loader these objections lose their force. In 

 addition to this change a detachable magazine has been devised 

 which, when attached, gives the effect of a magazine gun, but one 

 where the balance is noc altered and the point of one cartridge 

 docs not press on the butt of another. The slide which covers the 

 loading hole in tbe frame may be drawn back and a small metal 

 case holding six or eight cartridges slipped into two slots. At the 

 base of this magazine, which is only about an inch wide, is an 

 opening large enough to admit of the passage of a single cartridge. 

 As the chamber is emptied by the raising of the cartridge in it to 

 the barrel another one slips into the chamber, and when this is 

 lifted another, their weight carrying them down. There is noth- 

 ing unsightly about this adjustable magazine. It does not inter- 

 fere with the line of sight and is not large enough to be in the 

 way. The invention, intended primarily as an important improve- 

 men t for military rifles, may perhaps serve for hunting arms as 

 well. 



BOSTON, Jan. 21.— A few riflemen braved the cold and tried for 

 bullseyes at the Massachusetts Rifle Range to-day, but the high 

 wind and zero weather proved too much for good scores:
