BLOODHOUNDS IN AMERICA. 



Editor Forest and Stream,: 



Will you allow me a small space in your columns to state 

 that Mr. J. L. Winchell and myself are not now breeding 

 and exhibiting bloodhounds jointly. I have been a breeder 

 of bloodhounds for more than twenty years, and, of course, 

 take a very great interest in everything pertaining to this 

 historical breed teeming with old associations and old time 

 stories, and capable of being brought back into practical, 

 every day use instead of being chiefly valued for its magnifi- 

 cent appearance and services as the artist's model. 



We nave now a number of specimens which come very near 

 perfection in hound properties, and are of great power and 

 pace. It is scarcely necessary to say that the breed stands 

 very far in advance of any other as regards scenting powers. 

 Until the last few years the bloodhound was practically un- 

 known in America and I have long felt that if properly in- 

 troduced it would be of the greatest advantage not only to 

 the breed itself, but to every gentleman who was induced to 

 go in for it in a workmanlike manner. 



Through the kind offices of my friend Mr. Taunton, in 

 February, 1888, 1 became associated with Mr. Wine bell, and 

 I consider myself especially fortunate in this, as our relations 

 have always been of the pleasantest character, and I don't 

 think that any one could have been more enthusiastic in get- 

 ting the bloodhound taken up on your side. I am glad to 

 say that his exertions have been successful and that we con- 

 sider that the breed has now got a fair start. 



Although we shall not now be associated together in breed- 

 ing and exhibiting, Mr. Winchell will continue to import 

 hounds from me when he runs short of suitable ones of his 

 own breeding, and I hope that I may some day be able to 

 bring a team over to compete with your home-bred ones at 

 one of your New York shows. Edwin Brotjgh. 



Scarborough, England. 



DOG CHAT. 



MIL VREDENBURGH writes us: "I notice two errors 

 in your issue of to-day and beg to send you the cor- 

 rections. First— By the payment of the prize of the defunct 

 Albany Kennel Club to Mr. A. W. Smith, of Buffalo, 

 amounting to $8, the disqualifications against the officers 

 were removed, but the club was not reinstated, it having 

 been dropped from the roll of membership for non-payment 

 Of annual dues at the last annual meeting of the club, held 

 Feb. 26, 1891. Second— The expenses of Mr. L. F. Whitman, 

 of Chicago, for attending the last annual meeting of the 

 A. K. C, to the amount of $36, was not paid by the club. 

 Mr. Whitman came, on to the W. K. C. show, and while 

 there attended the annual meeting as one of the delegates 

 of the associates. He doubtless paid his own expenses, as 

 no claim for such was ever made to me by him. The item 

 of |56 for 'expenses of associates' as published in my annual 

 statement, refers to moneys paid to Dr. Perry to cover his 

 expenses in attending two meetings during 1891." Evidently 

 a slight misunderstanding, and we are pleased to correctthe 

 latter statement in justice to Mr. Whitman, though as our 

 information came from one of the officers of the club we felt 

 justified in printing it. 



Mr. Geo. W. Patterson, in renewing his advertisement in 

 Forest and Stream, remarks that he will be unable to 

 show his kennel at New York, as his bitches are in whelp 

 and puppies too young to show under the new rule. 



Spaniel men and those who are not exactly known as 

 spaniel men, but who appreciate a happy gathering of dog 

 men, should not forget the Spaniel Club's dinner, which 

 will be given at Morello's, Wednesday evening of the W. 

 K. C. show. Full particulars can be had from Mr. A. C. 

 Wilmerding, 163 Broadway, New York. The Spaniel Chili 

 cups will also be on exhibition at this gentleman's office. 



The entries for the New York dog shovy, although not so 

 large as last year, it is safe to say will show an increase of 

 quality over all former years, The $5 fee seems to have 

 had little effect. The number in each breed is: 



St. Bernards 



Bloodhounds 



Harriers . 



The St, Bernard men are arranging for a club diuuerat 

 Delmonico's or the Brunswick during the show week.

The late entries are now all in, and number 1266, or 1163 

 without duplicates, and they will all be bunched on the 

 main floor. 



Mr. Brooks is importing, we hear, a crack pair of Scotch 

 terriers. He is not content with running second. This is 

 the way our breeders pick themselves together and the 

 breeds benefit thereby, and some of the terrier classes need 

 a little new blood. 



The young mastiff Sraoaha was sold during Chicago show 

 to Mr. F. G. McCain for $200; he. won first in dog puppv 

 class. 



Mr. Carl Heimerle sold ch. Irene, the Great Dane bitch to 

 a Milwaukee man for a house and lot— no, some real estate, 

 value $1,500— so Mr. Heimerle says. 



It is no use attempting to run a show without an experi- 

 enced man as sole superintendent. This the Chicago people 

 have by this time probably found out. Of course it is under- 

 stood that the club was handicapped by the non-arrival of 

 the full lot of benching, but carpenters were got to work. 

 But somehow benches were not assigned to the dogs, and 

 the first night of the show some of the terriers were still in 

 the crates, and deerhounds and terriers tied to the flooring 

 for a couple of days after the opening. Of course there was 

 grumbling at this. Then the watering of the dogs was not 

 attended to as it should have been. The aisles were not 

 kept as clean as last year; in fact, the whole show in the 

 way it was run was not up to date, There are several men 

 who for, from 8150 to §300, will manage the shows properly, 

 and as they know the exhibitors and are practical exh ibit ors 

 themselves, know what is required. Messrs. Goodrich, 

 Hagans, Lincoln, Locke, etc., worked hard enough in all 

 conscience and were never off the ground hardly; but still 

 for the want of knowing bow their labors were doubled. 



There was considerable amusement at Mr. Lewis's vigor- 

 ous kick in Italian kennel prize award decision, the judge 

 scoring on a basis of 5, 4, 3, 2, in order of prizes, so that the 

 kennel with several seconds and mention cards was given 

 the special. This score card was afterward torn up and the 

 special given to the right kennel, the Mt. Washington Ken- 

 nels having the best dogs. 



Then the kennel prize for best sporting kennel was judged 

 by Mr. Davidson, when all the sporting judges should have 

 taken a hand in. Under the first decision Messrs. Davey 

 and Fowler's kennels divided, but next day when they all 

 got together the prize went rightfully to Mr. Thayer's team 

 of deerhounds and fox-terriers. 



The goat circus seemed to be a great fund of amusement. 

 This is an innovation which hardly interested the, co<juoh- 

 centi however, and Prof. Parker is much missed this year. 



The catalogue was much too full of errors, and many well 

 known names had only a suspicion of their former mean- 

 ing. Several of the numbers would be missed and found 

 on other pages. The dogs were benched in many classes 

 with little regard to rotation, and as kennels were allowed 

 to bench their dogs together much confusion resulted, aud 

 one could not tell where one breed began and another ended 

 in the main building. The club is sorely handicapped at 

 having such dark small quarters for their show, and this 

 may be the cause of much of the trouble and anuoyance. If 

 this is the case the entry list should be restricted as at New 

 York, or another building procured. Marked catalogues 

 were issued by Thursday aud on the whole the awards were 

 very accurate. Judging was nob concluded till Friday with 

 the awarding of specials. 



Mr. Sackett, who owns Adam and Eve, the cocker span- 

 iels, purchased Rabbi from Mr. Laidlaw and Bessie W. and 

 Novel from Mr. Willey and intends to get together a good 

 l earn of cockers. 



Mr. Frank F. Dole has sold Attraction, the bull-terrier, 

 to Mrs. Bradford, of New York. She was entered at Chi- 

 cago, but the purchaser wished to take her home at once 

 from Mr. Dole's kennels, so friend Frank bemoaned a loss 



of $10 prize money at Chicago, but it is more than likely 

 our friend remembered this when making the sale, so we 

 cannot condole with him. Mr. Brooks, through Mr. Dole, 

 bought the Dandie Dinmont Border Reiver from Mr. R. D. 

 Williams during the show. He is getting a clinker cut 

 from England. 



Mr. Symonds is getting ready for the show season. Here 

 are some of the dogs be is importing: The black and tan 



Scotch Hot.; bull-terrier Comet if., by Comet ex. Nora; 

 Pomeranian Sheen, by Rocket out of Vivert, whelped Octo- 

 ber, 1890. The. pointer Ruby YII. (E.K.C.S.B. 24,451), 

 whelped Jan. 17, 1886, by Don out of Romping Doll; her 

 wins are 30 firsts, IS seconds and 3 thirds. Among those is a 

 first at Crystal Palace; with this bitch also comes Devon 

 Bangor. All these with exception of Ruby YII. came on s.s. 

 Lake Superior, of the Beaver Line, and Ruby YII. will fol- 

 low in time for New York show. 



Mr. E. H. Morris has bought a Sussex bitch in England, 

 from noted stock and in whelp to Bridford Bachelor. She 

 is entered at the New York show, but being uncertain as to 

 her fit condition to compete, his order was filled for a black 

 dog, Bachelor, said to be a good one. He. is by Hindley 

 Black Prince. (E. 27,002), going back on this side to Sterling, 

 Moonlight, Old Nellie Bachelor, Smutty Scamp and Silvia. 

 His dam is Floss, she by Moonstone, a winner of twenty 

 first prizes and ten specials. 



The application of the Keystone Kennel Club of Philadel- 

 phia has been received at the A. K. C. office, and a claim for 

 March 1 to 4, 1892, allowed for its inaugural show. 



W.e regret to hear that Mr. Michael Flynn, whose Irish 

 setter Sedan won the All-Age Stake at the late Irish setter 

 field trials,owing to business arrangements, has been obliged 

 to part with his dogs, and must now be only a looker on. It 

 was his intention to run Sedan this fall in the Champion 

 Stake under S. C. Bradley's charge, of whom he speaks in 

 glowing terms as a man and a handier. 



Dr. Wesley Mills's new work, "The Dog in Health and 

 in Disease," will be on sale at the New York show." 



We have received the premium list of the Keystone Ken- 

 nel Club's first show, to be held at Tattersall's, Philadel- 

 phia, March 1 to 4. The list is quite liberal, challenge prizes 

 of $10 are given to important breeds, and open classes have 

 $15, $7 and $3 in mastiffs and St. Bernards, pointers, setters, 

 collies, fox-terriers and. pugs $10, $7 and $3. Other classes $7 

 and $3. The judges have already been announced. Entries 

 close Feb. 19. A Dachshund class has been added to the 

 premium list, and if there are two competing kennels of 

 Gordon setters a kennel prize of $15 will be given. Other 

 specials will be announced later. 



As a direct result of the show just held at E'tmira, N. Y., 

 those interested in dogs organized a kennel club Feb. 7. The 



Bowman. Executive Committee: George W. Rogers, Man- 

 fred H. Davis, Frederick A. Cheney, Prof. J. W. Roberts and 

 George Brand. They have made application for member- 

 ship in the American Kennel Club, and intend to hold their 

 first show during the Inter State Fair, September. I8W". 



Dr. Nicolai writes us to correct the impression that the 

 great Dane Imperator cost $8,000. He says he know?, the doe, 

 to have cost $1,000 to the club he is a member of, and this 

 after he refused him at a price of $450. 



The Duquesne Kennel Club's premium list is before us. 

 In keeping with its standing as an important show, they 

 have offered some very good prizes. All the big breeds, the 

 drawing cards, are given $20 and $10 in challenge classes, 

 and $10, $5 and $3 in the open. Other breeds $10 and $5 in 

 challenge, and $10, $5 anc $3 in open classes. A number of 

 valuable specials are given both by specialty clubs and in- 

 dividuals, so that there will be good pickings for the lucky 

 ones. The judgesare: John Davidson — English, Irish and 

 Gordon setters, pointers, greyhounds, deerhounds, beagles, 

 foxhounds and Italian greyhounds. Miss A. II. Whitney— 

 St. Bernards, Newfoundlands and great Danes. Mr. George 

 Raper, England, all the other breeds. Entry fee for masti lis, 

 great Danes, St. Bernards, Borzois, Newfoundlands, Deer- 

 hounds and bloodhounds is $4 All other classes $3, and 

 entries close Feb. 27, with superintendent, Box 515, Pitts- 

 burgh, Pa. 



Mr. R. F. Mayhew has been commissioned to report the 

 New York Dog Show for another greatest paper in the 

 world, the London Field. 



Mr. George Bell has repurchased Obadiah, the cocker, 

 from Mrs. King, Lexington, Ky. He reports a crack by this 

 dog to come out at New York. He also sold Gothamite to a 

 Chicago party. 



Messrs. Brooking and Parry, after selling the beagle 

 Frank Forest, cabled to England for a crack trailer. 



A number of queries will be answered by mail this week, 

 and Kennel Notes are left over for want of space. 



Mr. F. F. Dole will attend to auction sales of fox-terriers 

 at New York, and will be pleased to purchase dogs for in- 

 tending buyers who cannot be present themselves. 



Mr. Lamb expected to receive a St. Bernard, which he 

 describes as a '-clinker," by a steamer arriving last Monday 

 or Tuesday. Further particulars are not vouchsafed. 



Mrs, Smyth, of the Swiss Mountain Kennels, has purchased 

 another good St. Bernard bitch, Nancibelle, from C. .1. 

 Clarke, Elmira, N. Y. This bitch is by Alton out of Nero 

 III., sire of Sir Bedivere. This lady also purchased Nanci- 

 belle's two dog pups, by Tristan G. 



The premium list of the Continental Kennel Club's show 

 at Denver, Col., April 13 to 16, is being mailed. The club 

 should have a good entry with such prizes as $10 in challenge 

 aud $10 and $5 for all the breeds except the hard-haired ter- 

 riers and toys, etc.; entry for these breeds is $2.50, all the 

 other breeds $3. Eu tries close March 2S. The club gives a 

 special of $65 to handler showing the largest team in best 

 condition, and $35 for the second best. Mr. John Davidson 

 will judge all classes. Spratts biscuits will be fed and San- 

 itas disinfectant will be used. 



The cocker spaniel Red Roland will be shown at New 

 York, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh this spring. Western 

 papers please copy. 



History is going to repeat itself in the ease of the collie 

 Charleroi II. Imported originally by Mr. Harrison, he re- 

 turned as part of the deal for the great Christopher. Now 

 Mr. Carswell, of Wilmington, Del., writes us that he has
