 W. H. Ash burner, beagles.

NEW YORK. 



New York. April 4. 1887.— In addition to the special 

 prizes already announced the American Spaniel Club offers 

 S10 cash for the best. Clumber spaniel. A member of the 

 A. K. C. offers 835 cash for the best kennel of St. Bernards, 

 rough or smooth-coated, to consist of not less than four. 

 The usual arrangements have been made with all express 

 and railway companies, with the exception of the Fall River 

 Line, whose manager, in reply to our circular letter, 

 wittily says he will readily comply with our request provid- 

 ing owners of dogs will guarantee" silence on the part of the 

 latter while in transit on the company's boats. This being 

 almost a matter of impossibility, we conclude that negoti- 

 ations with the Fall River Line have failed. Great en- 

 thusiasm is already manifested among exhibitors, and it is 

 confidently expected the number and quality of entries will 

 exceed that of any previous show.— James xMoktimer, Supt. 



DETROIT. 



The Michigan Kennel Club have just completed arrange- 

 ments with the following express companies to return all 

 dogs free that have paid full rates to their show: United 

 States, American, Pacific and Canadian; and the usual 

 arrangement with railroads to carry dogs free when accom- 

 panied by the owner or caretaker. The delay in getting the 

 above until to-day (April 2), premium list will be mailed 

 April 6. Having received many letters from Dakota, 

 Colorado, Minnesota, Mississippi, Tennessee and Canada, 

 asking whether dogs that have been recently hunted, and 

 are out of coat, will be debarred on that account, we wish to 

 say to these tlmt true merit will win. No dog will be 

 penalized for coat worn off by honest hard work in the field, 

 our object being the elevation and improvement of all dogs, 

 more especially the dog intended for field work. All dogs 

 will be judged wholly on their merit, regardless of owners, 

 honesty and justice being the motto of the Michigan Ken- 

 nel Clcb. 



TPIE COMPTON BRAHMIN ENTRY'.— The only pai- 

 ticulars we have are those given by our reporter in his com- 

 ment, from which it appears that the owner of Brahmin 

 misstated the dog's weight and procured his entry in a wrong 

 class at the Providence show. This may have been due to 

 sheer stupidity, or it may have been a deliberate design to de- 

 ceive the show committee, the exhibitors and the judge: and 

 as such it would be a gross instance of fraud, with which 

 theA.K.C. should promptly deal. It would not do to per- 

 mit such sharp practices to go unpunished. If it was simple 

 stupidity and lack of knowledge how to use a scale, Brahmin's 

 owner should take a course ot primary instruction in weights 

 and measures, and practice on the 5-cent weighing machines 

 in the depots and hotels.

CANINE SURGERY. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



Dr. Van Schaick's report of two laparotomies for the 

 relief of iutestinal obstruction in Forest and Stream for 

 March 31 would do credit to many a surgeon of renown, and 

 while such scientific painstaking is praiseworthy it is never- 

 theless probable that the dogs were rendered more uncom- 

 fortable than necessary by the cautious after treatment. 



Canines and domestic fowls are exceptionally free from 

 danger of peritonitis after abdominal operations or in juries 

 and consequently the care which would have to be exercised 

 in doing this sort of work safely in the hitman species, 

 might lead to trouble with a restless animal which does not 

 reason. (It goes against the grain to qualify a dog in this 

 way.) 



As a rule it would not be necessary to fasten a dog's legs, 

 because when an intelligent dog tries to remove the dressing 

 or the sutures with his feet or with his teeth a word or two 

 from his master is sufficient. He takes in the situation at a 

 glance, and does not disturb the wound afterward. 



Then again, it is not necessary to cover the vvaund with a 

 dressing. I have opened the abdominal cavity in dogs a 

 good many times for various purposes and have* removal a 

 number of tumors from other parts of the body, and have 

 found that the wounds would unite regularly by primary 

 union if antiseptic precautions were observed during the 

 operation, and if after suturing, a thin layer of iodoform 

 were sprinkled over the wound.

COLLIES AT NEW.ARK,— Babylon, L. 1., Ma;ch 31.- 

 EeUtor Forest and Stream: My attention has hem called 

 to your comments on collies at the late Newark sho\. , ^.s 

 published under the signature of Chas. H. Mason. Presum- 

 ing that you are truthful in your statement that you are 

 "unhampered by per.soiinl animosities and have no judges to 

 kill," your readers may question the propriety of publish- 

 ing Mr. Mason's ill-natured remarks. It is not my inten- 

 tion to criticise his motives, these are too transparently ap- 

 parent; but where he is incorrect and positively untruthful 

 I am hound to put myself right before the dog-loving por- 

 tion of your readers. It is the latest kind of intelligence to 

 me that I was selected to co-operate with Mr. Apgar by the 

 tossing of a copper, and i leave it to that gentleman whether 

 he did or did not earnestly request me to join him in the 

 judges' ring, and this was the first intimation 1 received of 

 the matter. I was afterward strongly urged to accept the 

 onerous position by Mr. Geo. A. Smith, secretary of the Col 

 lie Club, Mr. Mitchell Harrison, of the Chestnut IT j 11 Ken- 

 nels, and Mr. Jenkins Van Schaick. all of whom will bear 

 me out that I very reluctantly consented to act, being utter- 

 ly opposed to dual judging and strongly believing that a man 

 should stand or fall solely on his owu responsibility. Mr. 

 Mason goes on to say : "The judges bad not proceeded far 

 with the open bitch class before it was apparent t>o the on- 

 lookers that there would be a hitch in the proceedings. This 

 proved to be the case. Mr. Mortimer wished to give first 

 prize to Laity Ellis," etc. This I stigmatize as a wilful aud 

 malicious falsehood. No doubt existed in mv mind as to 

 where the first prize should legitimately go; I simply called 

 Mr. Apgar's attention to the merits of Lady Ellis, "and we 

 were both cordially agreed that she was a worthy second in 

 this very strong class. Mr. Apgar and myself agreed on all 

 points with the exception of the relative merits of Nulla- 

 moreand Glengairy, here in the most amicable manner we 

 "agreed to disagree," and under the circumstances requested 

 the committee to call in a third party. I am quite sure Mr. 

 Apgar will willingly confirm these statements, and there- 

 fore rest my case in the hands of a discerning public, who 

 will readily discriminate between honest criticism and the 

 vindictive vaporings of an unbalanced intellect. — J as. Mor- 

 timer. ■ 



THE BUFFALO SHOW.— Hornellsville, April 2.— Editor 

 forest and Stream: As I was employed by the Buffalo Ken- 

 nel Club No. 1, I am in a position to know that t he statement 

 made by Mr. Chas. B. Cook, Secretary of Buffalo Kennel 

 Club No. 2, is very far from the truth, which can be easily 

 proven. After it was decided that I was to lie superintend- 

 ent I advised Mr. Chadeayne to form a club and ask for ad- 

 mission to the American Kennel Club. I am a member, two 

 members live in Philadelphia, two in New York, and one at 

 Bergen Point , N, J. I do not know just how many members 

 do live in Buffalo, but this I do know, that many good solid 

 business men belong to it, and it is backed by one of the 

 strongest societies in the city. Mr. Chadeayne" sent a copy 



was no other kennel club at that time in Buffalo, because 

 Mr. Chas. B. Cook told me so himself at Rochester. He 

 called to see me at Washington Rink, Feb. 7, and asked me 

 "Who was to give the show in Buffalo?" I replied that the 

 Buffalo Kennel Club had given Mr. Chadeayne and myself 

 full control. He said "there was no kennel club in Buffalo." 

 I told him he was surely mistaken, that a copy of constitu- 

 tion and list of officers had been sent to Mr. Peshall, asking 

 that we be proposed to the A. K. C; he did not know there 

 was an American Kennel Club, so I gave him the secretary's 

 address. He insisted that there was no kennel club in 

 Buffalo. I said there was, and when they found they could 

 not pump me his friend wanted to bet me .$500 that he bad a 

 better Skye terrier than the one I gave first prize (en passant 

 his wonderful dog was not shown at Buffalo). — J Otis
