functions '! This last "construction" impels me to ask in 

 public, what is so extensively whispered in private, if it is 

 not a fact, that the late president, Mr. W. H. Child, was 

 driven into resigning, by finding that his executive functions 

 were constantly usurped by the secretary and others at 44 

 Broadway, without even advising him of what was done ? 

 The very best officer ever connected with the A. K. C, the 

 one who commanded the most entire public respect, and who 

 would and could have brought the club into general respect, 

 is forced to resign by being made a mere figure-head by one 

 secretary and several outsiders ! Some of my excellent 

 friends, such as Mr. Peshall or Mr. Collins, will say as they 

 have said, "Why keep on waving the bloody shirt ? M Why 

 simply because the A. K. C. never has retrieved a. single 

 blunder, or risen to the demands of the situation, unless it 

 was clubbed into it. Entreaty, argument, illustration and 

 prophesy have all been poured on it in vain, and the club 

 has been the only instrument effective in reaching its feel- 

 ings. The effective course for those "enemies of the A. K. 

 C." that "the ostriches" make such dragons of, is to keep 

 dark and let it continue it's persistent course of blundering. 

 The secoud Philadelphia meeting was about its most critical 

 point, and had not Messrs. Child, Morgan aud Osborne 

 labored for it the whole night long, after the discouragement 

 of Maj. Taylor's "proxy" re-election, it would certainly have 

 died then and there, flow have any of these three, who 

 waved if from utter wreck and ruin, been rewarded by the 

 bantling they saved from the waves of scorn and ridicule ? —

THE MASTIFF BAhDVU.- Editor Forest and Stream: 

 Permit me to correct a possible, error in your last. The 

 mastiff Baldur may have, been whelped on May 10, 1883!, hs 

 his entry at the Kennel Club show at Agricultural Hall so 

 says 4 but again, two of his presumed litter sisters (cham- 

 pion Beaufort— Cytha II.) are entered at Warwick as 

 whelped May 16, 1887, and six days is altogether too rapid 

 for even an American bitch, much less a slow John Bull 

 one. What the correct date was will be determined by 

 statement from the breeder, Rev. Father Van Hoorne. but as 

 argus eyes are on a 1 1 of us "kickers," I want to forestall 

 possible proceedings fortes et dure* that may be contem- 

 plated against Mr. Craig aud me. I bought the dog in Eng- 

 land, guided to it by a consideration of his breeding, and 

 the uniform high merit of his full and half brothers and 

 sisters, but Mr. Craig took him off my hands before he 

 landed here, and you can hardly suspect me of perpetrating 

 such a plant on a friend as getting him to exchange an in- 

 terest m such a tested stud dog as Lord Raglan, and of such 

 illustrious relationship as his, for an interest in a mere 

 youngster, be he ever so promising. Lord Raglan is the 

 sole property of Mr. R, A. Craig. Wacouta Kennel, St. Paul,

KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 



^ST° No Notice Taken oi Anonymous Correspondents. 



C. M., Ithaca.— My 14mos. old pointer puppy has been troubled 

 for the past six months with an apparently incurable ear diffi- 

 culty. Have tried thoroughly all remedies noticed in Fohest and 

 Stbjbam, for similar ailments, without avail. Puppy shakes his 

 head violently, especially after barking. Every two or three 

 weeks there seems to be a gathering, deep into the head, which, 

 upon breaking, discharges a large amount of blood v matter. The 

 inside of the cars become blotched and sore, f ol lowed hv a gradual 

 drying up and scurfy appearance, of the diseased parts. ' Lately 

 puppy has been afflicted with some skin disorder. Have given 

 Fowler's solution of arsenic in proper doses, also sulphur. He 

 eats well, is strong and healthy, and has plenty of exercise. Acs. 

 For the canker of the ears, use the following: 



9 Bromo chloral . j i 



Tr. opii ji 



Aq > 5-i 



Mix. Sig. Cleanse the ears carefully with water and soap and 

 after drying, let a few drops fall into the ears. Keep the bowels 

 in good order by teaspoonful doses of syrup of buckthorn. Give 

 2gr. pill of quinine three times daily.

 road. Could you recommend the above named place as one an- 

 swering our requirements'? Ans. Yes, but there is no sailing to 

 he had there in the mountains. 



C. P. F., Torresdale.— 1. Where can good fly-fishing for black 

 bass be had on the Potomac River. Md., also name and address of

 Ans.— 1. Point of Rocks, Md., is a good place, and so is Harper's 

 Ferry. We cannot give addresses there but you will have no 

 trouble in finding accommodations. 2. The fishing will be probably 

 good for some weeks yet. The fish seldom go above two pounds.
