bone. Nora, first, and Bell, second, are very promising 

 pnppies though much the youngest in the cla^s, Nora has 

 the best skull and her ears are the best trimmed, they are 

 full of quality. Carlos, third, is of the same litter as Bell, 

 but is fairer in color, she is uhtrimmed and short in head, 

 but is an excellent pup showing considerable quality. 

 Prince, vhc., and Bismark.hc, are much better matured but 

 lacking iu quality. 



St. Bernards.— This class has improved greatly siuce last 

 year. California Alton, the winner, is without doubt the 

 best St. Bernard that ever reached this coast. He has fre- 

 quently been called a small edition of Sir Bedivere and he 

 has much the same character. He is a little short in neck 

 and back, and would be still better if a darker shade of 

 orange in color. He is beautifully marked and shaded, pos- 

 sesses a good skull, ears well carried, a broad muzzle of good 

 depth, magnificent bone, good coat and carries his tail well. 

 Gillott, second, has not near the quality of the winner. He 

 is smaller as well; his skull is well proportioned but there is 

 not enough of it; he lacks blaze and in place of shadings has 

 a black-brindle head; has fair bone in front but is lacking iu 

 bone behind; coat good, hind feet turn out, doubtless the 

 effect of too much dew claw. He is not the equal of Grand 

 Chancellor, third, and Chancellor would have beaten him 

 had he. beeu in condition. The latter has more character in 

 head and is of better height and length, but lacks color and 

 is very thin in flesh and light in bone; Marc Antony, vhc, 

 lacks shadings and is woolly in coat, but has a good skull, 

 nice ears, excellent muzzle, good bone and well-proportioned 

 body; Rover, he. is a small dog, very plain in head and a c. 

 card would have been ample. There certainly is a greater 

 division between him and Marc Antony than one letter. 

 Lady Gladys, first in bitches, has very fair skull and muzzle, 

 ears well placed and of good size, but lacks blaze and shad- 

 ings, has one poor haw; her body, bone, legs and feet are 

 excellent. She should make an excellent brood bitch. 

 Victoria, second, is a dark brindle, nicely marked, but is 

 inferior to the winner in skull and shown so fat that she is 

 all out of shape. Puppies, St. Elmo, first, is a very promis- 

 ing puppy, with excellent bone, nice markings and shadings 

 and a promising head. In smooths, Loris, third, is a bitch 

 of some quality, but deficient in muzzle, light in bone and 

 small. She has good coat and color. 



Newfoundlands.— Nero, first in dogs, has the best head 

 and coat in the class, but there is not a real good New- 

 foundland iu the whole lot. Comparatively speaking he 

 was rightly placed. Prince, second, is a nine-month-old 

 pup, with considerable character, good bone and a flat coat. 

 Jack, third, has too much of a St. Bernard type of head. 

 Moses, vhc, is too thick under the eyes and curly in coat. 



Greyhounds. — In dogs, Examiner, first, has a good head 

 but is a bit short in neck, shoulders good, loin well arched, 

 ribs good, front legs straight, but stifles weak but fairly well 

 bent; he was shown in superb condition. Dounard, second, 

 is only a sapling- he has good head and eyes, good length 

 of neck, good shoulders, nice depth of ribs, good stifles, 

 well let down in hocks and good feet. John W., third, is a 

 trifle light in loin, otherwise he is good, Bitches saw Lady 

 Emma first, a useful hound, with excellent head and neck, 

 and good in body, back, loin, legs and feet. She is not in 

 show condition, being with litter. Lady Olga. second, is 

 short in head and neck, and small. Bessie, third, was 

 shown with litter; she is fair in head and neck, ears not 

 well carried and not in condition; she is a very fair hound 

 and her litter by Play Boy promises well. Lady Cleveland, 

 vhc, we overlooked. Amhita, vhc, is as beautiful a little 

 hound as I ever saw; she was in the pink of show condition, 

 but evidently not a worker, a very pretty catchy hound, 

 well let down behind, with nice length of neck and good 

 depth of body, but soft and toyish. In dog puppies Badge, 

 third, got all he deserved. In bitch puppies Minnie, first, 

 is a fair puppy, but weak in pasterns. 



Deerhounds — This class was not as full of quality as 

 the Los Angeles class. In dogs Scott, the winner, has a 

 good head, neck and coat, is fairly well bent in stifles and 

 well let down in hocks. He is much the best mover. Nero, 

 second, is very short in head, good in coat, body and limbs, 

 but lacking in character. Stag, third, was much the lar- 

 gest and I thought at the judging that he was a very fair 

 hound. His owner removed him soon after the judging. 

 In bitches Swift was first; he is short in head. Queen, 

 second, is not as good as the winner in head or hocks. 



Foxhounds.— In dogs Paddy, first, has good quality, and 

 is well formed all round. Carlo, second, is another type, 

 longer in body, with excellent head and ears. Duke, third, 

 is a trifle bloodhoundy-like in expression, otherwise good! 

 Ike, vhc, is thick in skull. Prince, he, is flat in ear and 

 not well sprung in ribs. In bitches Julie, first, is a very 

 typical hound. Princess, second, is thick in skull and short 

 in ear, otherwise good. In puppies the winner, Slob, Jr., 

 has excellent head, ears of good length and well hung, good 

 bone and feet, but is a trifle light in body and loin. Will 

 doubtless fill out with age. 



Pointers.— In challenge dogs Duke of Vernon, first, was 

 shown in good condition; his grand head and neck and superb 

 quality towered above his competitors for specials and won 

 the special for best pointer in the show quite handily. Sally 

 Brass II., first in challenge, bitches, was, like her kennel 

 companion, alone in the class; she is superb in legs and feet, 

 but much too fat, her skull, neck and shoulders are excel- 

 lent, but her muzzle is pinched and laeking in depth. In 

 dogs oolbs. and over. Wade Hampton, first, is too deep in 

 muzzle, a bit thick in skull, but excellent in body and limb. 

 Pat P., second, is too full over the eyes and poor in pasterns, 

 but good in muzzle, body and back. Sir Fourth, third, is 

 shallow in back ribs, but has a fair skull, good depth of 

 muzzle, but ears are too large. Jack Robinson, vhc, is 

 coarse iu head, witn ears folded. Clover, he. is too thick in 

 skull and pointed in muzzle. Bitches over 50lbs. had Vera, 

 first; she won first last year, has grown a trifle cheeky, but 

 has an elegant muzzle, is well ribbed and has good legs and 

 feet. Queen Croxteth, second, is a bit thick in skull and 

 lacks quality, otherwise all right. Gypsey Queen, third, 

 has excellent skull and muzzle, but is not deep enough in 

 stop and was shown too fat, she also moved poorly in the 

 ring. True M., vhc, has lost a piece of her tail, is cheeky 

 and week in pasterns. 



In challenge pointers, under oOlbs.. Patti Croxteth had a 

 walk over, as usual; she was shown in good condition, but 

 little changed since last yeir; she is a little thick in skull 

 and heavy in shoulders. Dogs under 551bs. saw Kent of 

 Bloomo first; he has a very fair hear), is excellent in body 

 and loin, but poor in shoulders and too high on the leg; he 

 is a fair dog but will never ir ake a clinker.' Rap, second, is 

 a little too thick in skull, too throaty, good in body, back 

 loin and bone. Fire, third, is fail- in muzzle, but has a 

 poor expression and ears are not carried well; lacks spring 

 of ribs and is short in bacK. ribs. Croxteth T. is too shorf^ 

 legged for his length and size, has a very fair head but is 

 splan-footed. In bitches under 501bs. Meg Merrilies, first, 

 was alone in the class; she is not quite square in muzzle', 

 but the same is clean cu;, skull good, ears a bit long, eye 

 very expressive, very nice body, legs and feet. In dog pup 

 pies, Duke, Jr., first, is a bit thick in skull, but excels in 

 muzzle, body and front legs. Grand Duke, second, is also 

 a very promising puppy; a trifle poor in pasterns, and a 

 little light in muzzle Dick, third, has a very promising 

 head, but is too young for the class. Tick, vhc, is a trifle 

 plain in nead, crooked in front and flat in back. All of the 

 pups in this class are by Duke of Vernon. In bitch puppies, 

 Midget, first, has a very good skull and muzzle, is good iu 

 body, back and loin, but is light iu eye, throaty and weak 

 in pasterns. Dede, second, we like full as well, she has 

 more style and quality than the winner, and has not her 



faults. Betsy B., third, another daughter of Duke of 

 Vernon, of the same litter as Dede, is not quite as good as 

 Dede in head. 



English Setters.— This class does uot compare in quality 

 at all with your Eastern shows. In dogs, Sam K. Glad • 

 stone, first, is a Ciucinnatus type of dog, extremely racy in 

 build but head a little too narrow to suit my idea of a set- 

 ter. In fact if this type is the correct one then Lee R , sec- 

 ond, and Bob Gates, 'Jr., third, should have had about C. 

 Sam K. Gladstone is the winner of our last Derby, and, 

 barring type, he is a remarkably sound dog. Lee K., sec- 

 ond, the winner of the Derby last year, is much smaller and 

 not as racy: he beats Bob Gates in skull, but Bob beats him 

 in muzzle; he is excellent in spring of ribs, body, loin, legs 

 and feet and is a splendid mover; his ears are set on too 

 high. Bob Gates, Jr., third, I like full as well on the bench 

 as Lee R; he is a good all around dog in the pink of condi- 

 tion barring his coat being a trifle short. In bitches, Lady 

 Trippo, the field trial winner, won easily. She is the best in 

 head and the best mover in the class, excel lent iu body, loin, 

 legs and feet and shown in fine condition. Beasy, second, 

 has an excellent skull but is flat over the eyes and deficient 

 in stop; she is not a good mover, apparently being in whelp: 

 she is excellent in body and legs. Flora, third, is deficient in 

 stop, not right below the eyes, and a little shallow iu body. 

 Dog puppies.— Earl of Essex, first, has a good skull but is 

 not quite square enough in muzzle; he is weak in pasterns 

 and light in second thighs. Duke of Laurel, second, is a 

 bit pinched in muzzle, otherwise good. Dan Ardo, third, 

 has a good skull but is also pinched in muzzle. Bitch pup- 

 pies. — Belle P., first, has a good skull and muzzle of fair 

 depth. 



Gordon Setters.— Ben Nevis, first, is a very fair dog, but 

 would not be in it with the Eastern winners; Pluto, second, 

 is not as good in bead as the winner and is curly in coat. 

 Bitches, Fanny, first, is a fair bitch, but not the equal of the 

 winner in dogs; second was withheld and Lady Merreu. thi rd, 

 is very poor, The only puppy, Black Frank! Jr., will never 

 make a good one. 



Irish Setters. — Mike T., the challenge winner iu dugs, 

 has bad it all to himself for years, hence his present exalted 

 position, but he would not win vhc. in New York. Lady 

 Elcho T., the winner in the corresponding bitch class, is a 

 very typical-headed bitch of considerable quality all through 

 and would make a good showing anywhere. The open classes 

 were a rather poor lot; Memo P., first in dogs, is thick in 

 skull and too long in back, color and coat, legs and feet 

 good. The others are really not worth describing. They are 

 all Irish setters and possess some character, but bad types of 

 heads describes the lot. In bitches, Lightning, the winner, 

 is nearer the proper type; she is very fair in head; Lady 

 Juno, second, is a good mover with a fair head; Dora, third, 

 is too short in head but is built for business. In puppies, 

 Blarney, first, has a good skull and an unusually good 

 muzzle, nice coat and color. Ruby M., first in bitch puppies, 

 is a fair little bitch. 



Cocker Spaniels.— This class was very much better than 

 last year, Bronta, first, has good skull, though too promi- 

 nent just above the ej r es, muzzle very good, good eye and 

 ear, coat, a trifle off, excellent body, loin, legs and feet, good 

 bone and lots of character. Snipe, second, has the same 

 fault as Bronta in skull, and is a trifle long in head, ears 

 good, muzzle a bit pinched, coat fiat and of good texture, 

 excellent in legs, feet and character. Duke, third, has good 

 skull, ears too high on head, muzzle, coat, bone and feet 

 good, but is out at elbows and straight in stifles. Nip K., 

 vhc, is good in muzzle and fair in skull, ears set on too high 

 and are too short, otherwise good. In bitches, Brontilfa, 

 first, has a good skull, muzzle a trifle light, good coat and 

 character, she is too long in body and light in bone. Bettie, 

 second, has good skull, but is a bit light in muzzle, ears well 

 hung and of good length, but a trifle heavy iu leather, coat 

 too short, a cob>y little cocker of the proper type, but rather 

 too small. Maud E., third, has the best head in the class, 

 ears fine iu leather and well hung, good body and bone, a 

 nice mover, but proportionately a little too high on the leg, 

 and was in very poor condition of coat. Belle Dot E., vhc! 

 is rather toyish iu head, coat short and too harsh, feet and 

 legs good. Julie, vhc, is too broad iu skull and badly 

 pinched in muzzle, too long in coat. Dog puppies, Black- 

 bird E., first, has a good skull, muzzle pinched at nostrils, 

 eyes, ears, coat and character good. 



Field Spaniels.— Sport, first, is a small field spaniel 

 long and low, and very near the proper type of head, excel- 

 lent flat coat, good body, bone, legs and feet, King Bee. 

 second, is a big cocker; a.s a cocker he is a very typical 

 specimen, or would be if he were under weight: coat should 

 be flatter, body, bone, legs and feet good, but he is not a 

 field spaniel. 



Irish Water Spaniels.— Two puppies were shown in the 

 puppy class; they are both very promising; the dog G-af uey 

 won. He is better in bone and straighter on his legs, but 

 the bitch Biddy is better in head and coat. Both are quite 

 typical. 



Retrievers.— Three entries, none of them first class re- 

 trievers. Dude, first, was properly placed, being nearest the 

 type of a curly coated retriever. 



' Chesapeake Bay Dogs— Trout, the winner in'dogs is a 

 little too short, but has a splendid coat, good bone and fair 

 head. Bess, first in bitches, I like better, she has a darker 

 eye, better head and more character, she is not nearly as 

 good iu bone as Trout and is a darker color which I think is 

 not desirable. Pearl, second, is better in bone, has good 

 coat and loses to Bess in head and density of coat. 



Collies.— The open dog class was a very poor lot. Roslyn, 

 Jr., third, is very high on his legs, has no coat and is poor 

 in expression with wretchedly carried ears. The other en- 

 tries, Don, he, and Glen, c, are doubtless workirg collies, 

 but not show dogs. Iu puppies, Gaff, given he. , is prick- 

 eared and without coat or character. 



Dachshunds.— In dogs, Jabberer, first, has good length of 

 head, good crook, and is the best in length of body. Tiekel, 

 second, is the toy type, a six-month puppv, very long and 

 low, good in head, body and legs. Frindi, third, is thick in 

 skull and not as good in front as those placed over him. 

 Bitches.— Brunhilde, first, is of good length and splendid 

 front. Dachs, second, is another of the toy type, good 

 length of head but weak in jaw. Beauty, third, 'is of good 

 length, but short in head. Waldine, vhc, is too thick in 

 skull but fairly good in crook. 



Beagles.— Flute II., the only entry, was very properly 

 given a blue ribbon; he is a bit crooked in front but a typi- 

 cal beagle. 



Bulldogs.— Boxer, first, has a very fair head, but might 

 be better in layback; his ears have been cut and he is weak 

 in pasterns. 



Bull-Terriers. — The dogs, five in number, were un- 

 noticed. Spotless Prince and Rowdy absent. Six or seven 

 of the bitches and puppies were also turned out of the ring. 

 Twilight, the only real bull-terrier in the show, won first in 

 open class, first in puppy class and special, she is a clean- 

 headed bitch, good in body and limbs, excepting one stifle, 

 which has been injured, ears untrimmed, she shows lots of 

 character and was shown in fine condition, 



Fox-Terriers.— In dogs, Le Logos, first, has a good type 

 of head, but might be better in lower jaw, he is also rather 

 light in bone and high on leg; Bounce, second, is too thick 

 in skull and too heavy in shoulders; Spot, third, is plain in 

 head and lacks substance. Bitches, Nellie, first, was rightly 

 placed. She is a bit thick in skull, otherwise, very good: 

 Hillside. Gaudy, second, I like fully as well in head, out she 

 is light in substance, straight in front, with good feet and 

 coat; Chippie, third, is thick in skull, ears poorly carried 

 and is wide in front; Gypsey, he, is a weed. 'Puppies, 



Dauntless Suzette, first, is a very promising puppy, with ex- 

 cellent head, straight in front, nice feet, good character, 

 good coat, a little too soft, but of good length and thickness; 

 Jip, third, is thick in skull, with a short, pinched muzzle. 



BLACK AND Tan Terriers.— Frank, the only entry, se- 

 cured third. He is apple-heaned and lacking in character. 



Toy Terriers.— Rose, entered as black and tan, had this 

 class made for her. and won first. 



Skye Terriers.— Three entries. Sally, first, is a very 

 fair, drop-eared Skye. The others are more Yorkshire than 

 Skye. 



Yorkshire Terriers.— Mash, first, is well known as an 

 excellent specimen. 



Toy Spaniels.— Ted, a supposed King Charles, with but 

 very little tan and much too long in muzzle, secured third. 



JAPANESE Spaniels.— Nellie, first is a good one.. 



Irish Terriers.— Biddy Egan, first, entered in the miscel- 

 laneous class, is a fair specimen, not red enough in color, 

 soft in coat. 



Poodles.— One white one, so fat as to be all out of shape, 

 won first in white class. Carlo, a very good black, won in 

 the corresponding black class. Pacific.
