FOREST AND STREAM. 



[June 18, 1891" 



upon the relator, and to reinstate and restore him to the 

 rights and privileges he enjoyed before such disqualifications 

 were made." The order was made returnable on June 8. It 

 was served on the secretary. Mr Vredenburgh then obtained 

 an order requiring Mr. Peshall to give bond in the sum of 

 S;850 for costs, on the ground that he was a non-resident; and 

 the date of answer was postponed from the 8th to the 18th. 

 The principal gi-ounds on which Mr. Peshall asks reinstate- 

 ment, as set forth in his affidavit are, that under the rules of 

 the A.K.C. the Executive committee had no authority to dis- 

 (jualify him, that he was not present at the Septeinbe.r meet- 

 ing at which the disqualification was imposed, had had no 

 notice that bis case was then to come up, and was not given 

 an opportunity to make a defense. 



During this extreme heat it b^'booves all owners of large 

 kennels, and small ones too, to see that their dogs have pure 

 air to breathe and that the floors of the kennel are kept sweet 

 and clean. As an aid to this, Cynoliua will be found an ex- 

 cellent preparation, and not alone this, but it will also rid 

 the dogs of fleas which are doubly troublesome this hot 

 weather. 



New kennel advertisements still keep coming in and this 

 week we notice several very important ones. The Westmin- 

 ster Kennel Club advertise their celebrated pointer King of 

 Kent in the stxid and A. E, Pitts his noted pugs ch. K^sh 

 and Bonsor. Those for sale are: Fox-terriers in Toronto; 

 Edmund H, Osthaus has pointer puppies and so has Jas. B. 

 Turner; G. B — Chesapeake Bay dog: Connemara Kennels and 

 E, H. Perry— Irish setter puppies of excellent blood and an 

 "ad" appears for a cocker to tree partridges. 



We note that Dog-catcher John Blake, of Newtown, has 

 been prosecuted for keeping fifty dogs in the pound three 

 days without food or water. The cruelty of some human 

 beings really passes all understandmg. Such men should 

 be treated to a little of their own medicine. 



PXe Clienil falls into a not natural error in thinkingthat only 

 Americans pay exorbitant prices for St. Bernards, terming 

 Mr. Shillcock an American when notmg bis purchase of 

 Marvel. Mr. Shillcock is a "Brum," and as such is most 

 thoroughly English, you know. But the richest thing is 

 that in the next paragraph. We find that at the Toronto 

 show "Deux dames, Mile. Whitney et Mme. Mason," will 

 ofiiciate as judges. 



"Eritz" Emmett, who has contributed to the amusement 

 of two continents and was one of the most popular actors on 

 the stage, has joined the majority. Dogmen will feel more 

 than interested in the news of his death, as he was at dift'er- 

 ent times the owner of several noted St. Bernards. The 

 giant Rector, for which he paid 34,(X)0, a great price at that 

 time, and Bayard, Jr., for which be is .«aid to have given 

 $2,000, once called him master. His most important pur- 

 chase, however, was the great Plinlimmon, for which he 

 parted with 85 000, and may be said to be mainly responsible 

 for the exorbitant prices at which crack St. Bernards are 

 now held. Plinlimmon appeared on^ the stage in his play 

 of "Old Uncle Joe," His sale of Plinlfmoion to Mr. E. H. 

 Moore is a matter of recent history. 



At the last moment we hear that the sire of sires, the St. 

 Bernard Prince Regent, has been purchased by Mr. W. C. 

 E,ieck, of the NewYork jEre?"aM,who already owns champions 

 Hector and Flora II. Prince Regent is the sire of Princess 

 Florence, Scottish Chief and other crack rough-coats. Mr. 

 Rieck must have paid nearly ;S3,000 for this dog, and has 

 certainly secured a bargain. He is expected to arrive in 

 about ten days, when we shall be able to give more particu- 

 lars. He is by Plinlimmon out of Miss Meg and a grandson 

 of Duke of Leeds, and is about 5 years old. 



NOTES AND NOTIONS. 



WHY do writers use noms cle plume that clearly convey 

 knowledge of their identity? I cannot see why in 

 such cases the writer might not as well give his name at 

 once, as write "The Publisher of the Working Sheepdog 

 Stud Book," or "The Owner of ." 



Mr. Mason's recent article on "The Grreybounds at 

 Chicago" is a notable instance of writing worth writing, it 

 being'but too true that much "writing" had better h.Hve 

 been"^left unwritten. I think it is within bounds to say that 

 one-half the matter contributed to our kennel press contains 

 nothing of interest or value, and that the half of this one- 

 half only ministers to the vanity or ill-will of the writer, 

 being a diffusion of his personal grievances or a magnifying 

 of some of his belongings. We have had twin mimuments 

 of this sort, one being the intensely silly proposal of having 

 a perambulating tombstone emblazoning the killing of a dog 

 by a Mr. Otis, with some exceedingly disrespectful allusions 

 to the killer, and the other a maudlin squirting about the 

 death of some dog, beginning with "What heart did not 

 stop or what breath go slow at the news of the death of Old 

 Black .Joe?" In both these cases the object of writing was 

 writing. Mr. Mason's article is notable in being a well- 

 digested, synthetical, instructive article, leadino; to thought 

 and knowledge on the subject treated of, and great is the 

 pity that so little of that kind of writing appears in our 

 kennel papers. 



* «■ 



Mr. Mason is in error, however, in implying that restive- 

 ness under criticism of dogs is a special characteristic of 

 American dog owners. A gentleman connected with the 

 English kennel press writes me that a good straightfor- 

 ward show report is what he wants and sometimes gets, but 

 that he always gets notice of discontinuance of some stud 

 dog advertisement when he publishes a frank honest re- 

 poit: adding some pungent statements as to the future des- 

 tination of "fanciers" as compared with those of "sports- 

 men," a most disrespectful disposition of the "fanciers." 

 There is this important distinction between fanciers and 

 sportsmen InEnglaud, the former being "in it" for gain and 

 the latter for pleasure, and perhaps this distinction ac- 

 counts for the variation. But with us I fancy it is more 

 personal vanity that stirs up the owner of the criticised ani- 

 mal than aught else. The Onlooker.

ROUGH ON BARKS.— Bdiior Forest and Stream: For 

 the benefit of any of your readers who are troubled with a 

 dog that persists in howling or barking at night, when 

 there is no necessity and consequently keeping the house 

 hold awake, I will describe a little dodge which, if not 

 abused, will generally succeed in quieting the "howl of 

 Rome" or restraining yapping puppit-s, who after separation 

 from the family, delight the ear with "Home, Sweet Hniue" 

 in canine crescendo That there are many ways of effecting 

 a cure I am well aware. Rut they nearly all entail getting 

 out of bed or other evolutions, whereas with my invention, 

 as is usual with such "Keeleyan" fabric-itions, you touch 

 the button and the machine, detective, electrical or other- 

 wise, does the rest. Now do not think I am trying to get 

 you to sink well weighted money in a revolution! zer. but 

 just simply buy an ordinary, Inml ringing electric hell and 

 enough wire to reach to the couch on which your calm and 

 sweet repose is sought for. All vou have to do is to fix the 

 bell close by the dog, place the button beside your pillow, 

 connect the wire, and when the serenade is well under way 

 give a good sharp ring. It must be sudden and short, and 

 be very careful he does not get used to it. On receiving rhe 

 shock he will shoot for bis kennel, imagining the ghosts of 

 oft chased rats and cats have combined for revenge, and lie 

 as quietly, and perchance as cooley. as some dog owners nar- 

 rate the wonders of their p^ ts. This device may be used to 

 disperse feline waifs also, scaring birds, and in fact it might 

 be applied in endless different way.s. The writer is likely to 

 pay a visit to English snores soon, and wnuld be pleased to 

 take over or bring back any dogs any one might wish to get 

 over safely under special care.— Pro Uanis Amor. 



A POINTER FROM "HICKORY." — Columbus, O.- 

 Editor Forest and Stream: Oa April 2 there appeared in 

 Forest and SxREAii, a challenge from Mr. Isgriggtorun 

 any doga three days' race with amarket hunting dog, a grand- 

 son of old Gladstone, on neut^'al ground. "We will either 

 give or take expenses, money and dog ready at any time." 

 Now, I accepted this in good faith and put up the money, 

 §2.50, camehere half wav and on neutral ground andremai-ied 

 here from April 27. Am I not justly entitled to the -S250 to 

 cover part of my expenses? I have had no word from Mr. 

 Isgrigg.— J. R. Pdrcell.

J. W., Cambridge. Mass.— 1. My fox-terrier dog while out walking 

 along the street oa the chain the other day, was bitien by another 

 dog, also ou chain. They were separaie^l before any serious damage 

 uad been done. My dog's skin was only just nroken, and I thought 

 no more of it for a da . or two, when it began to swell I put some 

 va.seline ou it. The scab- hardened and this morning the swelling 

 broke, and a large quancity (abotu a teaspoonfuli of redoish. stringy 

 matter came ont i squeezrd out as n.-ucn as I could and washed it 

 off with warm water. Is ic usual for a.ig bites (this was a sort of 

 pinch) to maturate, ana have I done riijhf? Is ihere anything more 

 thst should be done? 3 Is such a thing suggestive of rabies or other 

 dangerous effects? Ai^s. 1. Clean the uoundand apply a tiot bread 

 poultice to draw any rtmalning impurities. Then apply a httle 

 Friar's balsam and the wound will no doubt neal up very soon. 

 Your dog very likely needs Pome blood purifier, try Glover's, and 

 give him a teaspoouful of syrup of buckthorn every other day for a 

 week. 2. Not necessarily.
