A HARD EXP ERIENCE WITH DISTEMPER.— Athens 

 6a., Aug. 25. — I have just passed through an experience, the 

 like of which I hope no brother sportsman may ever realize, 

 with distemper. Belle Boyd had just weaned a beautiful 

 litter by Count Noble, They all died. Two others six months 

 old diecLalso,, and last, but by no means least, my two best 

 Derbies, Alf and Boyd Noble, the most promising brace I 

 ever saw of their age. I lost nine out of ten cases, and the 

 surviving one is left with a very stubborn case of chorea, 

 which is yielding very slowly to treatment. The disease was 

 the most virulent type it has ever been my misfortune to en- 

 counter, being contracted from a relapsed case. — R. I. HAMP- 

 TON. 



THE BEAUFORT — PATTI M. CASE. — The American 

 Kennel Club, after voting to reconsider the decision in the 

 Beaufort— Baljfci M. case, refused to lay the matter on the 

 table and voted ten to two to sustain the decision of Mr. 

 Peshall that Beaufort was entitled to the prize, the Cin- 

 cinnati Sportsman's Club and Michigan Kennel Club voting 

 in the negative, and the Hornell Kennel Club and the West- 

 ern Pennsylvania Poultry Society blank, the Cleveland 

 Bench Show Association declining to vote. 



DICK AND PALMERSTON. — Wilmington, Del., Aug. 

 16.— Editor Forest and Stream: When in Malahide, Ireland, 

 on Aug. 4, Mr. W. H, Lipscomb, one of your subscribers, 

 wished me to hand you the photographs of his Irish setters 

 Dick and Palmerston, which I inclose. — Joseph Hill. 

 [Thanks for the photographs. That of Dick is somewhat 

 blurred, Palmerston looks to be a line typical specimen of 

 the breed.]

KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 



t^W No Notice Taken of Anonymous Correspondents. 



J. K., Mausfield, O.— My setter bitch, 3^ years old, is very sick. 

 She had a litter of puppies in April; soon after she weaned them 

 she began shedding, and since then has never been just right. 

 Appetite very poor, body covered with small pimples and scabs, 

 eyelids very much inflamed and swollen, matterate very much, 

 no discharge from the nose. She is kept on table scraps and 

 cooked meat, has plenty of exercise once a day, is kenneled in a 

 good dry barn with plenty of clean straw; to-day had a very hard 

 fit. Ans. Keep bowels clear with syrup of buckthorn in one or 

 two teaspoonful doses. Give five drops of Fowler's solution of 

 arsenic morning and evening. 



A. C. L , Minneapolis.— A 6 months old Gordon setter's ailment 

 is a continual shaking and jerking of right foreleg and shoulder, 

 so bad that he occasionally falls down. It had distemper 2 months 

 ago; I treated for 2 weeks with Fowler's solution of arsenic, three 

 or four drops night and morning, and the disease passed off, but 

 was followed by what I have described. I am now giving a tea- 

 spoonful of syrup of buckthorn every other day. She seems to 

 have passed a few worms but does hot improve. Ans. You had 

 better give an active purge of castor oil (two teaspoon fuls) and a 

 full dose of powdered areca nut, thirty grains made into a large 

 pill. Give the pill three hours after the purge, and f oUow the 

 pill in three hours with a second purge; afterward give the fol- 

 lowing: 



1$ Ferri et strychnin citrat grs. 24, div. in pil. No. 13. 

 Sig. One three times daily. 



Bradford Runr.— The attention of breeders of pugs is called 

 to the advertisement of tne well-known champion Bradford Ruby 

 in the stud. He is not only a great winner on the bench both in 

 this couutry and England, but is the sire of winners also. Among 

 other winners of his get in England are Little Count and Little 

 Countess. Several of his get also distinguished themselves in the 

 puppy classes at our shows last spring. He is a small, nicely 

 formed dog, well marked, with beautiful cars, remarkably good 

 in wrinkle and tail, and without doubt is the best specimen of the 

 breed in this country.

THE DIAMOND BADGE MATCH.— New York, Aug. 29.— 

 Editor Forest and Stream: At the request of a number of shooters 

 whose engagements prevent their participating in the shoot for our 

 diamond badge, within the time first fixed, we have concluded 

 to extend the time for entries to Sept. 28. The badge cost much 

 more than was first designed. There is nothing sham about it, 

 and it is one of the finest ever offered.— The Atlantic- Ammuni-

John R. Chambeulin, Esq., editor of 'Hie Trap and Trigger, 

 Cincinnati, writes the U. S. Cartridge, Co., of Lowell, Mass., under 

 date of Aug. 11, as follows: "I have not heard anv complaint 

 against the Climax Waterproof Paper Shot Shells of late, and I 

 observe it used at club shoots by many whom I used to hear com- 

 plain of long firing; and the gas leakage I know is entirely re- 

 moved." The company have alway s aimed to make a perfect 

 shell, and claim that end has been attained in the shell they are 

 now offering the sportsman, and they ask that if any defect is 

 discovered, that they may be notified at once, as by so doing the 

 public and company are benefited.— Adv. 



The Maine Industrial News says that the stuffed skin of 

 a sea serpent is now being exhibited at Peak's Island, Port- 

 land Harbor, by W. H. Ordway. His snakeship was cap- 

 tured on the hanks of Newfoundland, October 11, 1886, by 

 Capt. F. P. Barnstead of the schooner Hattie F. Walker, 

 Halifax. Its length was 47ft. 3in., and its weight 9001bs. 

 Its mouth contains a fine set of teeth, and on its upper jaw 

 are two feelers, each 13^in. long. Five feet hack of his head 

 are flukes on each side, and the end of his tail is formed like 

 a sculling oar, being flat and 9in. in width at the end.— Bos-
