THE IRISH SETTER CLUB. 



AT a meeting of the Irish Setter Club held yesterday, at 

 an hour after this journal had gone to press, the fol- 

 lowing reports were read: 



PRESIDENT'S REPORT. 



To the Members of the Irish Setter Club: 



Gentlemen— Toe year lust finished has been an important one 

 to those interested in the development of the Irish setter. Here- 

 tofore the energy of Irish setter breeders had been devoted mainly 

 to the development of a typical show d^g without especial refer- 

 ence to field dualities. The result has been a great average im- 

 provement in the breed, and it can be truthfully said that the 

 Irish setter of tc-day breeds more uniformly to type than any 

 other hreed, excepting the English greyhound. It was in response 

 to the feeling that the Irish seiter was not receiving the proper 

 development in the field that your club appointed at its last an- 

 nual meeting a field trial committee to dev'se means to hold a 

 field trial open to Irish setters. This committee, in connection 

 with your Executive Committee, was successful in securing from 

 the Eastern Field Trials Club the privilege of its grounds at High 

 Point, N. C, for the week following the Eastern trials, and while 

 the history of the success of these trials is familiar to you all, a 

 short account of them will not be out of place here. 



The Derby Stake closed with thirteen nominations, eleven of 

 which filled and ran. The first prize, $150 cash donated by the 

 club, $50 donated by E. B. Bishop, $50 donated by E. B. Bishop to 

 the handler of first, and Item Cup, presented by the Philadelphia 

 Iie?;i, was won by Nugget (Redfern— Gypsey Maid), owned by H. 

 B. Anderson. Glenview, N. J.; second prizp, 875, woo by Coleraine, 

 owned by E. B. Bishop; third prize, $50, won by Elcho's Maid, 

 owned by George E. Gray. 



The All-Aged closed with nineteen nominations, fourteen of 

 which filled and ran The first prize. $200, donated by the club, 

 and the Elcho cup, donated by Dr. Wm. Jarvis,was won by Sedan, 

 owned by M. Flynn, Jr.; second prize, S125, was won by Coleraine, 

 owned by E. B. Bishop; third prize, $75, worn by Edna H., owned' 

 by Dr. Wm. Jarvis. To the untiring efforts of Secretary Davis 

 the club is indebted for much of the success of these trials. 



The treasurer's report hprewith shows the financial condition 

 of your club to be in excellent condition, and w r ith the precedent 

 of a successful trial last year the indications point to a much more 

 successful one for 1892. 



There are several questions to which I would call attention, 

 and ask that some action be taken upon. Oar constitution at 

 present does not call for any initiation fee, and I would recom- 

 mend its;amendment. to provide for one. Also the advisability of 

 joining the A.;K C. At the last annual meeting it was decided 

 to ask for admission to that body, but as we had no constitution 

 at that time and our f und3 were so low the matter was allowed to 

 go over. I also favor having a club medal designed, to be awarded 

 at one or two of the principal bench shows. 



I would suggest that a vote of thanks be passed to the Eastern 

 Field Trials Club for the use of the grounds, to Messrs. J. B. Stod- 

 dard, Luke White and J. M. Taylor for their services as judges. 

 Regretting my inability to be present at your annual meeting I 

 remain very respectfully, Wm . H, Child. 



secretary's report. 

 To the President and Members of the Irish Setter Club: 



Gentlemen— Your secretary has the honor to submit the fol- 

 lowing report of the operations of the club duriug the past year. 

 In pursuance of resolutions passed at our last annual meeting, a, 

 committee consisting of Messrs. Glover, Blossom and Contoit 

 was appointed to draft a constitution. This was done, and after 

 being approved it was printed and copies sent to all members. A 

 committee consisting of Messrs. Child, Rowo and Davis was also 

 appointed to provide for the holding of field trials. The history 

 of these trials is familiar to you all. In addition to a cash sub- 

 scription amounting to $369, the following donations of special 

 prizes were obtained: One hundred dollars from E. B. Bishop, 

 Fsq.. one-half of which was for the winner of the Derby and one- 

 half for the handler; a large silver punch bowl from the proprie- 

 tors of the Philadelphia Item for the winner of the Derby; a solid 

 silver cup, known as the Elcho Cnp, presented by Dr.' William 

 Jarvis to the winner of first in the All-aged Stake, and a prize of 

 three guineas received from the Rev. Robert O'Callaghan, of 

 England, for the winner of the Derby. 



In pursuance of instructions from the executive committee the 

 secretary had printed an appeal for contributions. These were 

 distributed. The field trial committee in con.ju action with the 

 executive committee, succeeded in obtaining sufficient money 

 and making such arrangements that they were enabled to run 

 the trials to a successful end. The club is deeply indebted to the 

 Eastern Field Trials Club for their kindness and courtesy in al- 

 lowing us the free use of their grounds, likewise to Messrs. Luke 

 White, Major J. M. Taylor and J. B. Stoddard, who acted so 

 efficiently and satisfactorily as judges without charging anything 

 for their services. J. Otto Donner, Esq., who had kindly con- 

 sented to act as one of the judges, found it impossible at the last 

 moment to do so, owing to his enforced absence on business. The 

 success of the trials was largely due to the kindness and aid ex- 

 tended by these gentlemen. 



At the last annual meeting eight new members were elected, 

 making about twenty active members in all. This membership 

 could be largely increased by a little effort. The financial out- 

 come of the trials has been such as to lead me to hope that in the 

 near future there will be such a surplus that we will be enabled 

 to give proper encouragement to the exhibition of our favorites at 

 the dog shows. Let us all bear this object in view and work with 

 increased vigor to make our coming trials a success. In conclud- 

 ing the secretary would like to express his high appreciation of 

 the uniform kindness with which his efforts have been met and 

 the generous aid he has received from the members of Die club 

 and many others in the discharge of the duties of his office. 



G. G. Davis, Secretary.

E. B. Sears, Treasurer. 



Mr. Sears reported that at the Chicago show he had made, 

 a special effort to bring new members into the club, and as 

 a happy result he presented the applications of the follow- 

 ing: Chas. T. Lindsey and Irving A. Sibley, South Bend 

 Kennels, South Bend, Ind.; also the South Bend Kennels; 

 Frank S. Anderson, Chicago; E. Sauerhering, Maysville, 

 Wis.; N. S. Salisbury, Whitewater, Wis.; C. C. Same, Chi- 

 cago; E. C. Preble, Parkside, 111.; C. C. Gockey, Bremen, • 

 Ind. and W. C. Hickox. Other new names were H. S. 

 Chambers, Port Jervis, N. "i.; Knowles Crosky, Phcenix- 

 ville, Pa.; Edward Booth, New York; W. Hepner, New 

 York; Mrs. Smyth, Germantown, Pa. All were elected to 

 membership. Several resignations were accepted. 



Secretary Thurston suggested an amendment of Rule 6 

 (which provides that before a member may receive a special 

 awarded at a show, a photograph of the dog must be for- 

 warded to the club secretary, for the club album). It has 

 been found difficult to secure satisfactory photographs, the 

 rule has been for the most part honored in the breach, and 

 there are several specials not yet delivered to the winners 

 because this rule had not been complied with. Mr. Keevan 

 pointed out that the logical result of failure to comply with 

 the rule would be expulsion, a penalty which he thought no 

 one would care to enforce or be subject to. President Joeckel, 

 Mr. Walbridge, Mr. Sears, Mr. Reick and Miss Whitney 

 spoke of the difficulties in the way of complying with the 

 rale; in some cases the dogs had changed hands or had died. 



On motion of Mr. Sears, amended by Mr. Walbridge, Rule 

 6 was so amended as to require the photograph "if possible" 

 to supply them. 



By unanimous vote the Secretary was directed to casta 

 ballot for these officers: President, W. H, Joeckel Jr.; Vice- 

 Presidents, Jacob Ruppert, Jr., R. J. Sawyer and Miss A. B7. 

 Whitney; Secretary, J. O. Thurston; Treasurer, E. B. Sears; 

 Board of Governors, Messrs. Reiek, Moore, Volger, Rennie, 

 Sibley, Wells, Johnson, Hopf and Walbridge. 



At the last annual meeting Mr. Hopf had reported that a 

 pedigree (of Betsey Bobbett) which had been found incor- 

 rect by the club committee had nevertheless been admitted 

 to the A, K. C. stud book; and at that meeting a committee
