SALISBURY'S PEDIGREE. 



1 have waite(i lon R enough for an answer to my 

 challenge to show anything wrong in the above pedigree, 

 and now comes the live question. Who was it that put the 

 English correspondent, Mr. W. Huscroft, up to this piece of 

 rascality? This has a present and permanent interest, for 

 none but a rascal or somebody criminally negligent could 

 have "stuffed" a novice with such a yarn, evidently with the 

 intentiou of having it published. Here are the facts: The pedi- 

 gree of sire and dam is given, "By Monarch ex Duchess. 

 Monarch by Dickenson's Lion ex Empress; Duchess by 

 Victor ex Beldam (sister to champion Turk)," etc. Dicken- 

 son's Lion was then owned in Halifax, Mr. Robt. Exley, of 

 Bradford, owned Victor, Mr. F. Heinzman (then of Leeds) 

 owned Beldam aud also bred the Victor— Beldam litter. 

 Mr. J. Anderton, of Bingley, owned one of the litter, Tiger, 

 2,443. Victor was then the crack stud dog of the North, as 

 his owner writes: "He was getting more bitches than all 

 other stud dogs in the north of England." 



Now, strictly for the sake of the argument, let us suppose 

 that Mr. Carr was anything that may be imagined, would 

 anybody with a grain of sense stick the names of the promi- 

 nent dogs of his district right in the beginning of a pedigree 

 he was forging? Would he not have selected doss from a 

 distance to lessen the chances of detection? Furthermore, 

 Messrs. Exley, Dickenson, Heinzman and Swithenbauk were 

 masters of mastiff pedigrees, and knew every dog of note in 

 their neighborhood. Mr. Heinzman was particularly care- 

 ful as to pedigrees, being more minute as to trifles than 

 even Mr. Wynn. Mr. Anderton owned the brother of 

 Duchess. 



Exact on the merest trifles, would not some of these gen- 

 tlemen have picked up such a fraud ? Would Mr. Exley have 

 bred his choicest bitch, Venus, dam of Bosco, to Salisbury 

 if there had been a doubt of his pedigree? Would Mr. 

 Swithenbank have submitted to having that crack, Bosco, 

 beaten by Salisbury had there been a suspicion of the pedi- 

 gree? Would Mr. Portier have pointed out the value of 

 balisbury's blood as a source of size and vigor if the pedi- 

 gree had been suspicious? 



Do not all these things "authenticate" the pedigree? 



Now, Mr. Huscroft has put himself in a most unenviable 

 position. A beginner as a public writer, he signalizes his 

 off-start by being made a tool of by somebody to ventilate 

 a base insinuation, and one that the promoter either must 

 have known was a lie, or could have so ascertained by the 

 most trifling investigation. The correspondent's having 

 made a mistake is no serious matter; we are all liable to 

 that; but the serious part is that he admits he derived his 

 "information" from what he considered a trustworthy 

 source; aud I assert that facts, as I give them, clearly de- 

 monstrate either that his "source" was criminally negligent 

 or viciously untruthful. No man has a moral right to make 

 such charges public until he has used reasonable care to see 

 whether they are approximately true. While I do not wish 

 to set up as an example for anybody, I can say that 1 could 

 have made such charges four vears since, when I was 

 bitterly hostile to Mr. Mason, but it stared me in the face 

 that I would be doing it on very insufficient grounds. I am 

 not fighting Mr. Mason's fight; he is able to take care of 

 himself, and in this matter he needs no defense; but it is a 

 matter of concern to all of us to know who the cowardly 

 assassin was that did this dirty trick, and it is worth while to 

 point out to Mr. Huscroft that his personal innocence of 

 wrong intent will not save him from a share of the blame as 

 long as he conceals the identity of the guilty source of this 

 unclean stream. Again 1 say that it. is the* duty of every- 

 body in doggy affairs to press the hunt for the author of any 

 such public shame as the publication of this cowardly lie, 

 that the paths of such offenders may be made so thorny that 

 future adventurers may be warned off.— W. Wade, in the 

 Stock-Keeper. 



CENTRAL FIELD TRIAL CLUB DERBY ENTRIES. 



NEW YORK, June I.— Editor Forest and Stream. The 

 total number of Derby nominations received by our 

 club was 131, 37 of which we were compelled to refuse, 

 owing to irregularities. Our club has been so fortunate as 

 to secure the services of Mr. N. Wallace, of Farmington, 

 Conn., for judge, to take the place of Mr. J. M. Tracy, who 

 will be unable to attend the trials this year. 



As a number of your readers appear not to have seen the 

 list of our judges as previously published, we take the 

 liberty of again announcing the complete list as follows: 

 The Pointer Derby and All-Aged Setter Stake will be judged 

 by Mr. John Davidson, Mr. William Tallman and Col. 

 Arthur Merriman. The Setter Derby and All-Aged Setter 

 Stake, deciding heat between winner of Pointer Derby and 

 winner of Setter Derby; also deciding heat between win- 

 ner of All-Aged Pointer Stake and All-Aged Setter Stake 

 will be judged by Mr. John Davidson, Mr. William Tall- 

 man, and Mr. N. Wallace. C. H. OdeII, Sec. and Treas.

 and 42 setters. All were whelped in 1888:

DOG TALK. 



ASSOCIATIONS intending to hold dog shows should 

 make early announcement of dates in our column of 

 fixtures. In almost, every instance where a show is to be 

 held it is possible to give notice of the date in advance and 

 thus practically secure a claim for the week desired that 

 will be respected by other associations. New York and 

 Kochester have already announced the dates of their shows 

 for the spring of 1890, and other organizations would do well 

 to follow their example. 



The well known greyhound bitch champion Lancashire 

 Witch died suddenly May 25, from rupture of the aorta. 

 She was imported in 1887 from England where she had done 

 a lot of winning at some of the most important shows and 

 in the best of company. In this country she was also a 

 noted winner, and had no less than 45 prizes to her credit in 

 all. She was owned by Mrs. Sarah Leggett Emory, of this 

 city, who writes of her, "All who have known her will con- 

 cede that she was a rare creature, of fine intelligence, superb 

 strength and courage and of a disposition that was invari- 

 ably gentle and obedient, but the many prizes that she has 

 won in England and the United States will testify more 

 forcibly to her worth than any words of praise that I can 

 utter. Her sudden taking off has caused me sincere sorrow. ' 



Dr. M. H. Cryer has placed all of his stud pugs in the 

 hands of the Associated Fanciers, 287 South Eighth street, 

 Philadelphia. 



There is considerable talk of a dog show at Cleveland, O., 

 next fall.

KENNEL MANAGEMENT. 



No Notice Taken ot Anonymous Correspondents. 



O. R. S., Rockland, Mass.— I have a female hound pup about 8 

 _ios„ and weighing 35-401bs,, that is sick with what I call dog ail. 

 The first I noticed of it she couldn't use her hindlegs well and 

 drooled at the mouth, and had spells of half a minute or so when 

 she would roll on the ground and kick; seemed like a fit. For 

 about ten days she didn't get up, and had'nt any appetite, the next 

 ten days she has been at a standstill. She has a good appetite, 

 hut if she starts to turn round quickly or run fast she tumbles 

 over. The trouble is in her hind parts, and she has been in this 

 condition for about a week. What had I better do for her and 

 what are the chances for her recovery? Ans. A sequel to dis- 

 temper. Give 5 grains quinine in pill form night and morning. 

 Give 10 drops tincture of nux vomica in a little water in the mid- 

 dle of the day. Gentle friction with some stimulating linament 

 morning and evening over the hind parts and legs. Electricity 

 would henefit. 



"Sam Lovel's Camps; Uncle Lisha's Friends Under Bark 

 and Canvas." The present collectien of sketches has the 

 same entertaining qualities, and carries most of the odd 

 characters of its predecessor into interesting fishing and 

 camping excursions on river and lake. As before, also, the 

 Vermont and French Canadian dialects are faithfully— 

 though sometimes a trifle too minutely— reproduced. There 

 is a decidedly wholesome, outdoor air, and a kindly, hearty 

 fun about these tales, which makes them eminently enter- 

 taining reading.— The Teacher and Examiner.
