DEERHOUNDS AT PROVIDENCE.— Ed lior Form and 

 Stream,: A handbill printed in New York on the 9th inst. 

 and subsequently distributed at the Philadelphia dog show, 

 contained the following malicious statement: "Mr. Mason 

 inquired of her keeper 'Cau she gallop?' 'Of course she can,' 

 replied the keeper, naturally enough, and then the blue rib- 

 bon was given to the large and 'catchy' bitch, while the per- 

 fectly sound Thora, who can gallop, was given second." The 

 above effusion, like very many others in the same sheet, is 

 absolutely false in every particular.— AlFRED Heald. (In 

 charge of Mr. John E. Thayer's dogs.) 



THE EASTERN FIELD TRIALS DERBY.— The entries 

 for the Derby of the Eastern Field Trials Club close May 1. 

 This will undoubtedly be the most important event of the 

 kind that has ever been run in this country, and the honor 

 of winning will be of far greater value than the amount of 

 the prizes. The stake is for a purse of $900, with $400 to first. 

 $200 to second, and two equal third prizes of $100 each, and 

 a §100 cup to the breeder of the winner. Ten dollars forfeit 

 with S20 additional to start. 



ENGLISH SETTER JUDGE AT NEW YORK.— New 

 York, April 26.— Editor Forest and Stream: I have just 

 received a telegram from Mr. J. M. Tracy saying that it will 

 be impossible for him to be at New York to judge English 

 setters, on account of illness. Mr. J. O. Donner will take 

 his place.— W. R. Hitchcock, Sec'y W. K. C.
