CHICAGO DOG SHOW. 



IT has been said tbat Chicago was not able to give a good 

 dog show, and a number of reasons have been given to 

 show why this was the case. Many argued tbat people were 

 not sufficiently interested in "man's best friend" to give 

 substantial support to a dog show. Others stated that the 

 cause of failure in the first was due to the undesirable 

 features connected with the management. Men whose 

 names and crooked dealings had become distasteful to ex- 

 hibitors were paraded before the public as the managers and 

 main supporters of these shows, and the result proved that 

 the better class of exhibitors especially had no confidence in 

 shows that were not managed by gentlemen. Bogus medals, 

 crooked newspaper men and unsavory management damped 

 every attempt that was made to give a successful exhibition, 

 and,* perhaps, the Mascoutab Kennel Club is justified in 

 publishing a catalogue which contains on its cover page 

 these words: "First Annual Chicago Bench Show Cata- 

 logue." It is, of course, quite evident that the present club 

 considers the one-horse shows of the past of so little import- 

 ance as to place tbem beneath the notice of a club which is 

 largely composed of prominent and worthy citizens. The 

 show which opened on the 9th and closed on the 12th inst. 

 proves that Chicago can not ouly hold a dog show, but it 

 also proves that her people will flock to the support of a 

 properly conducted enterprise. 



When we reached the show on Wednesday morning the 

 first thing that occurred to us was that there were probably 

 as many people iu the building as were admitted during the 

 four days of the show held in 1883. From morning until 

 night a splendid attendance thronged the benches, and we 

 are informed that nearly 5,000 people passed the gates on the 

 second day. The rougher element, instead of being in the 

 majority, as was the case at other shows, were in a decided 

 minority this time; and, if we leave Boston and New York 

 out of the question, we think we can safely say that no such 

 gathering has ever been seen at a dog show in this country. 



In regard to the management, it was all that could be 

 desired, and much credit is due the superintendent, who is 

 almost ns good a man at the business as Mr. Mortimer, and 

 very much like him in appearance. Spratts people looked 

 after the benching. Mr. Hartley, their manager, was as 

 busy as ever, and "Old Reliable" was as usual — "steady as 

 atop." After looking over the benches and satisfying our- 

 selves that the show was by far the best that had been held 

 in the West, and after noting the excellent management, the 

 smooth conduct of affairs, and the courteous bearing of the 

 club members, we hoped to be able to write in favorable 

 terms of the judging, which we regret to say was # the worst, 

 without exception, that we have ever seen in this country. 

 Never have we known awards to have been received with 

 more "kicking." At one time it looked as if we would have 

 to put. out a notice asking exhibitors not to bother us until 

 we had completed our work. No sooner did we take a dog 

 from his bench for examination than we were taken by the 

 arm and asked what we thought of the peculiar decisions in 

 this, that and the other class, until we were compelled to 

 say that we found it impossible to answer any questions 

 until our work should be finished. 



While the quality of the dogs was not what we find at the 

 Eastern shows, many beautiful specimens were shown. 

 English setters and spaniels were a very disappointing lot, 

 and it begins to look as if Americans had far more to learn 

 about breeding dogs than about sport and other things per- 

 taining thereto. There was a sad lot of rubbish, also, in 

 the pointer classes, but the Irish setters showed some 

 quality. Taken all in all the show was a creditable one, and 

 it a large number of exhibitors do not become discouraged 

 and bewildered over the misleading awards that were made 

 in many classes it will be a means of awakening renewed 

 interest in dogs, which will lead to improvement and the 

 holding of many other shows on a large scale. Everybody 

 connected with the show was courteous and obliging to us 

 and we left the great Western city with a pang of regret. 

 Now to the dogs. 



MASTIFFS — (MR. MORTIMER). 

 Minting, the champion of champions, scored the easiest 

 possible win over Moses and Wacouta Nap in the challenge 

 class for dogs, and the Lady Coleus had no competitors in 

 the challenge class for bitches. In the open class for dogs, 

 Melrose Prince, a winner at New York, was here placed first 

 and was decidedly the pick of a rather ordinary lot. He was 

 not in the best of condition. Grover Cleveland, second 

 prize, has a skull similar to the old English champion, The 

 Shah, that is to say, it is peaked instead of being flat between 

 the ears, and in addition to this serious drawback he pos- 

 sesses the following defects: Muzzle too long: ears rather 

 large; lacks wrinkle; is throaty: hiudlegs very weak; cow- 

 hocked; bad stern; moves very badly. He is a big, lengthy 

 dog, with lots of bone, and the best of forelegs and feet, but 

 is not what we want for a mastiff. Plato, placed third, 

 should have been second without doubt. He is much better 

 in skull, almost equally as good in muzzle, and decidedly 

 better in hindquarters and in stern. He is as good in fore- 

 legs and feet, and better in loin and is quite as large a dog. 

 Ilford Caution III., reserve, is wrong in head, light in bone 

 and not what he should be in set of ears. He is also much 

 too light in body. Duke of York, vhc., was not entitled to 

 the card. He is not only entirely lacking in mastiff char- 

 acter and quality, but he is without a pedigree. Defects: 

 Long in foreface and lacking in width and depth of head 



and muzzle: leggy; light in bone; not massive in body; bad 

 in ears; light behind; cow-hocked. Leo, he, by Jacob out 

 of Ruth, is not a show dog, as crooked as a dachshund in 

 front, out at elbows, bad in ears, light in body aud bad be- 

 hind; be. should not have been noticed. Leo (Ludlow's) that 

 was given c, fs a better specimen than the other Leo, but 

 he is not a show dog. Defects: Long and light in muzzle; 

 not straight in front; knees rather weak. His' body is fairly 

 good. Duke, unnoticed, is a decidedly better specimen than 

 either of the Leos, and he is as good a's Ilford Caution IIL, 

 that was given the reserve card. Defects: Muzzle and 

 skull lacking in volume undtrsiZL light m middle wrong 

 iu ears. Morgan, unnoticed, is bad at both ends, leggy and 

 light in bone. Chevalier, unnoticed, is houndy, leggy and 

 bad in ears, in fact, he is not a show dog. Melrose Prince 

 was the only dog in the class of correct, type. The bitch 

 class was weak m point of quality. Gladys, second prize, 

 beats Menglada, first prize, in muzzle, wrinkle and loin, but 

 is not so lengthy in body. We would have reversed the de- 

 cision. Adele, third prize, is pointed in muzzle and lacking 

 in volume of skull. Her ears are not right, she is light in 

 bone and coarse in stern. Body, legs and feet better than 

 average; has white breast and feet. Lady Isabelle, c. , should 

 not have been noticed. Head and ears wretchedly bad; very 

 light iu bone; body wide but lacking in depth; bad in feet 

 and not strong iu back. Plato, already described, was the 

 best of the dog puppies. John Bruce, second prize, lacks in 

 skull, muzzle, ears and massiveness. He will not develop 

 into a show dog. Patron, third prize, is only moderate in 

 head, has large ears, is not good in feet and is somewhat too 

 long in legs. His body is fairly good, but he will not be a 

 show dog. Norton, c, may have pleased his owner by taking 

 the card, but he is not a show dog; aud the awarding of a 

 commendation card to such an animal is very misleading 

 and cannot possibly benefit an owner who thinking he owns 

 a fairly good dog may try to get another like him. Defects: 

 Very bad head and ears; light body; large ears; high tail; 

 lacks character and quality throughout. Jack, vhc, is 

 what a judge of mastiffs would call a mongrel; he should 

 not have been noticed. Defects: Head and muzzle shal- 

 low; ribs flat; leggy; light in bone. Beech Grove Baron, 

 he, while not a show dog, is a better specimen than Jack 

 and beats him many points iu head and muzzle, Lady 

 Grant, the only bitch puppy shown, is a mastiff only iu 

 name; she should not have been noticed. Defects: Head 

 altogether wrong in formation; set of ears bad; too straight 

 behind: light in bone; carriage of stern not correct: lacks 

 every particle of mastiff character. 



ST. BERNARDS — (MR. MORTIMER). 

 The challenge class for rough-coated dogs brought out 

 Ben Lomond, the Kastern crack, and the North western cham- 

 pion Folko II. The son of Barry has all the better of it in 

 head, length of body, coat and size. He won well. Lady 

 Athol, in bad condition, has no chance of beating Miranda 

 in her present excellent form, and so the Melrose representa- 

 tive had almost a walkover for the prize. In the open class 

 for rough-coated dogs it was Burns first aud the rest no- 

 where, we gave this good dog a careful overhauling in the 

 New York report. Vallus, placed second, is a new one to 

 us. He is a big dog, standing over a lot of ground and sup- 

 ported by good, strong limbs, and well-formed but rather 

 small feet. He is a trifle coarse in muzzle and full in cheeks, 

 and his eyes are smaller than we like, in fact the whole 

 head, while decidedly above average, shows mastiff charac- 

 ter; the expression is not just right. Body would be im- 

 proved by massiveness, and coat is short at present. If he 

 can be put in good coat and condition he will do some win- 

 ing when in crane de la crane of the St. Bernard class in 

 this country are not shown. Sam, third prize, is of average 

 size, and notwithstanding his many defects he shows some 

 quality. Muzzle rather fine; set of ears not just right; body 

 rather short; hind parts rather too straight; feet somewhat 

 too small. Hackney Monk, reserve, is defective in coat, 

 stop, cheeks, muzzle, below the eyes, eyelids and in hind- 

 quarters (slightly). He has good bone and a fairly massive 

 middle. Schamyl II., vhc, is not nearly so good a'specimen 

 as The Baron, that was placed on equal terms with him. 

 Defects: Skull round; muzzle not clearly cut; set of ears 

 not right; expression sour; light in thighs and in loin; 

 straight behind; coat open. He is a big dog and has good 

 legs and a fair amount, of bone. The Baron is a bit wrong- 

 in cheeks and muzzle, and he would be improved by more 

 lip aud depth of stop, still he has a much better head than 

 Schamyl II. He carries his stern too high and is straight in 

 hocks and rather light in bone. Martigny, he, has the fol- 

 lowing defects: Muzzle too long; stop not quite right; ears 

 not perfect; stern too high; lightness in bone; coat curly 

 (slightly): a dog of average size and whose worst defects are 

 in head". Czar, c, is plain in head, large in ears, wrong in 

 head markings, light in bone, not first-qiass in feet, and not 

 all that could be desired in coat and hocks. Hero, un- 

 noticed, is a dog but not a St. Bernard. Rex T., unnoticed, 

 is bad at both ends, the ends commencing from the 

 center. Leo, unnoticed, is washy in color, wrong in mark- 

 ings and plain in head. He has small ears and good coat. 

 Mountaineer II. , unnoticed, is narrow in head, light in bone, 

 slab-sided, and is bad in legs, eyes and hindquarters. Czar- 

 evitch is defective in head and wrong in markings, and his 

 hindlegs are not right. Length of body is his best point. 

 Lyon, unnoticed, is not a show dog. Hector, in the same 

 category, is a brown mongrel that will do better in the 

 Chesapeake Bay class. Czar, unnoticed, is bad in markings, 

 fine in muzzle, light in bone and defective iu pasterns and 

 feet. The show bench w r as not for him. Otto II. is a nice 

 yard dog, but not a St. Bernard. Alex, unnoticed, is bad at 

 both ends and undersized. Royal, unnoticed, is narrow in 

 head, fine in muzzle, light in bone, straight behind and not 

 right in head markings. His feet, too, are not well placed. 

 Ca3zar, unnoticed, is light in eyes, straight in hocks and his 

 head markings are not correct." He should have had a card. 

 Miscabel was best in the bitch class. She was described in 

 the New Y'ork report. Noble Ida, second prize, was described 

 in the St. Paul report. She should have given way to Floss, 

 that was third. Both are defective in headland in head mark- 

 ings, but Floss is so much better behind the head that she 

 should have been second. Cleo Van, vhc, is spoiled by an 

 absence of facings, her coat is too short and open, and her 

 head is only moderate. She would be improved with more 

 bone. Body lengthy and roomy. Torrie, he, has not im- 

 proved on her puppy form, and was rightly pegged back. 

 Gail Hamilton, he, is wrong in head, but good in body. 

 Queen Omphale, c, is wrong below the eyes and bad in stern, 

 a trifle light in bone and not perfect in feet. She is better 

 than either Torrie or Gail Hamilton, and should have had 

 not less than vhc. Lady Henwood, c. is not the equal of 

 Queen Omphale, being plain in head wrong in marking and 

 not good in coat. Narka, unnoticed, is undersized, light in 

 eyes, bad in head and not first-rate in coat. Princess 

 Theroe, unnoticed, has a nasty, sour head and gooseberry 

 eyes. Victor Joseph, in elegant condition, was the only 

 smooth-coat of note. He was the only entry in the chal- 

 lenge classes. Monarch was best of the three moderate ex- 

 hibits in the open class for dogs. Eyes not quite right; skull 

 large, not too full in cheeks; muzzle too wide in proportion 

 to depth, and rather too long— a big head, showing some 

 character, yet not typical; too much coat; light loin; hind- 



row in front, rather plain in head and heavy in lpather of 

 ears. She was, perhaps, the best of a poor lot. Monastery 

 Myrtle, not quite right at either end, was second, and Jess, 

 a mongrel, was given third. This prize should, of course, 

 have been withheld. There were only four entries in the 

 four classes that were provided for puppies — a weak class. 



BLOODHOUNDS— (MR. MORTIMER). 

 Here there were two classes and two dogs. Burniston, 

 well known, was in no coudition for the show bench, and we 

 would have withheld the prize. Metcbley Venus, a wreck 

 of her former self, was in wretched condition, low in flesh, 

 mangy, and Jacking in muscle. She should have been 

 ordered out of the ring; but iu view of the fact that the 

 mangy bull-terrier Lady Tarquin and several other diseased 

 dogs were shown through the circuit, Boston and Troy of 

 i oni se excepted, tins judge could not consistently withhold 

 the prize, 



NEWFOUNDLANDS — (MR. MORTIMER). 

 Three entries in the two classes. Pete, first in dogs, is 

 wrong in coat, bad behind, not very strong in middle and 

 only moderate in head. He has good bone and is of average 

 size. Don, unnoticed, is a largo, black dog, but not a New- 

 foundland. Meadowthorpe Flora, first in her class, is not 

 good in head, but she has plenty of length, a good body, fair 

 limbs and average coat. She should do a lot more winning 

 if shown. 



GREAT DANES— (MR. MORTIMER.) 

 The best class we have seen in America. Caesar, first 

 prize, is fairly good in head, although the cheeks are too 

 full and he lacks in expression and character. Body strong 

 and good; hindquarters defective and causing him' to move 

 badly: throaty; stands on good legs and feet; stauds well 

 and is of good size. Taken all in all he is as good a dog as 

 Don Cassar, that was given the reserve card. Pluto, second 

 prize, was not entitled to the award. He is too full in 

 cheeks aud is not quite right in lips, very throaty, too wide 

 iu chest and not right in set of legs — a mastiff front. He is 

 rather slack behind the shoulder, but has strong loin and is 

 good down to the hocks, which are too straight. He was 

 about fourth best in the class. Csesar, third prize, was des- 

 cribed in the St. Paul report. Marco, vhc, was placed over 

 several better specimens. He is pointed in muzzle, wrong 

 in lips, full iu cheeks, light in eyes, too straight in hocks 

 and not long enough between the couplings. He is vicious 

 and was labeled dangerous. Wachtel, vhc, is a harlequin, 

 with only moderate head and expression and a bad tail. He 

 is also a bit throaty ami has rather ungainly looking dew 

 claws. Pluto, Jr., he, fairly good in head, is too wide in 

 front and is a bit off in neck and hindquarters. He is a bet- 

 ter specimen than Marco that got vhc. Hector, he, is also 

 a better specimen than Marco. Defects: Cheeks, muzzle 

 and neck not perfect; chest too wide; set of legs not just 

 right; feet might be better: moves fairly well. A brindle 

 with good body and quarters and of more than average size. 

 Duke, he, is a little plain dog that is not nearly so good a 

 specimen as Victor aud Don that were given c. cards. 

 Sultan, e, is a young dog with uncut ears, and is not good 

 in head. He is also somewhat throaty, and shows too much 

 curl in tail. He is a decidedly better specimen than a num- 

 ber that were placed over him, and should have had vhc 

 Victor, c, while not just right in muzzle, has a fairly good 

 head. He is rather light in eyes, a little slack behind the 

 shoulders, and not quite right in stifles and hocks. He is 

 quite as good a dog as the second prize winner and should 

 have had vhc. Don, e, is another that was placed behind 

 his inferiors. He is a better dog than Marco, that was vbe 

 Defects are in head. He has good bone, good feet, good 

 body and average size, and should have had vhc. Tneras, 

 e, is not of good color, is throaty and wrong in expression; 

 he should have had another letter at least. Humbert, un- 

 noticed, has badly cut ears, rather light eyes, straight hocks 

 and is undersized. Faust, unnoticed, is a light-loined 

 puppy, with fairly good head and defective hocks. Ajax, 

 unnoticed, is not first-class in head, but has fairly good 

 limbs and body. Ben Harrison, unnoticed, has large, uncut 

 ears, nasty yellow eyes aud is not right behind. Cassar, un- 

 noticed, has wretched head and eyes. Siegfried, unnoticed, 

 is not quite straight in front, and shows slight weakness be- 

 hind the shoulders. Ho should have been noticed. The 

 judging of this class was pronounced a farce by most of the 

 exhibitors that were present. In bitches, Donna Minka, that 

 was first at St. Paul, was a rather easy winner. Nora, second • 

 prize, is weak in foreface, wrong in expression, throaty and 

 stands back at the knees. Theina, third prize, is a large 

 specimen, with fairly good head. She is not quite straight 

 in front, shows some throatiness and does not move right 

 behind. She is a better specimen than the second prize 

 winner. Markesa, reserve, is light in loin and throaty; she 

 has a fairly good head. Elsie, vhc, is not right in stop and 

 has a rather coarse head; she is also a bit down at the 

 shoulders. Cantella, he, has bad eyes and is not good in 

 head. Her legs are not well set, she is not straight in front, 

 is wrong behind and lacks character. Flora Marr, e, has 

 badly cut ears and is defective in head and tki-oaty; she 

 shows too much mastiff character. Gipsey, e, has a very 

 bad head, with heavy wrinkle; she cannot compare with 

 Lady Belle, that was unnoticed. Cosette, unnoticed, is not 

 a show dog. This class, like the preceding one, was badly 

 judged. 



DEERHOUNDS — (MR. MORTIMER). 

 Mac was alone in t he challenge class. He begins to show 

 age and was not in good coat. Fergus, first in the open 

 class for dogs, is well known. Robin Adair, second prize, 

 is rather weak before the eyes, not very well developed in 

 second thighs, a trifle flat in ribs, and not quite as hard in 

 coat as we like. He should have been a very easy winner. 

 Oscar II., third prize, is a coarse specimen, with wooly coat. 

 He is not of correct type. Phyllis, the only entry in the 

 bitch class, is on the undersize and is a bit weedy. For 

 reasons that are known to all exhibitors, Mr. Thayer's 

 splendid kennel was kept at home, and the breed was not 

 well represented. 



GREYHOUNDS— (MR. MORTIMER). 

 The challenge class contained no entries. First In the 

 open class for dogs was given to Master Rich, a brindle and 

 white with good neck, average head and fairly good legs and 

 feet. His main power is at the wrong end, in front, and he 

 is straight behind, too short between the couplings and 

 rather high on legs. His breast and joints showed that he 

 had been "recently treated for skin trouble and it could not 

 have been on the score of condition that he was placed over 

 Douglas Fleming, that was shown for the first time in this 

 country in good condition. Douglas is making a queer 

 record. At New York, when he was mangy and not in con- 

 dition for the show bench, he was given first; and now that 

 he is in good condition he is beaten by a dog that is certainly 

 not his equal, Mr. Baillie must be getting a poor opinion of 

 dog shows as they are conducted in this country. Third 

 prize was given to Rich and Rare, a coarse but useful-look- 

 ing dog. He lacks character and quality in head, is wide in 

 front, rather straight in shoulders, aud he would be im- 

 proved by more depth of loin and by better feet. He is a 

 hardy-looking customer, but not quite a show dog. He was 

 properly placed, Rex, he, is coarse in head, wide in front, 

 bad in shoulders and is not strong in knees. He was lucky. 



Ti,-. n-n-nr.t-inf.rl i q B, wpprl The VnteVi ftl-ftfia hrmu/lit rm*. a 



tail; good ears, short loin, that should not on . 

 but more arched. A dog of good size. Prince, second prize, 

 is houndy, wrongin ears, straight behind, light in loin and 

 a bit flat-sided. Rex Maximus, third prize, is fuU in cheeks, 

 rather pointed in muzzle, not right in set of ears, under- 

 sized, not good in set of eyes and too coaty. The winner in 

 the bitch class carries too much coat, is light in bone, nar- 



quarters should be" more massive; good legs aud feet; high Tip, unnoticed, is a weed.^ The bitch class brought out a 



ly be longer, very seedy-looking lot of five. Catchfly, first prize, is not a 



show bitch. She is bad in head, light and stilty behind, flat 

 in loin, light in bone (especially behind) and her forelegs are 

 not well set. She is also wrong in carriage of tail — a minor 

 point— and lacking in true character. Shown in a good class, 

 under a greyhound judge, she would not be noticed. Min- 

 nie, second prize, is better in head than the winner, but she
