Mr. Sale Good, superintendent of the kennels, and Jack Wond^, 

 supplied a very inier> sting feature of the tourney in handling the 

 ttiree dogs which, bv announcement of the committee, were to 

 retrieve the pigeons m the 10-bird match. The dogs performed 

 the work without a fault, and er. j lyed it with as mu' h keen ex- 

 citement as did the large audn-Dce. Minaie, the Irish setter 

 owned by Mr. S. S. Troup, was turned loo.se first, and the bird 

 had scarcely struck the ground before she bad it. Then s e 

 whirled and came running in with it. Royal, the English setter 

 owned by Mr. J. F. Campbell, was next sent out, then the pointer 

 Noble Bang, owned by Mr. Charts Whealen. The three dogs 

 altcnated in the work, and thouah in high state of excitement 

 from the continuous applausf* over their triumphs, they did not 

 falter in their exbi 01 tion ot perfect training. Not one bird was 

 mutilated by the dogs, and each dog bad opportuaity to re'rieve 

 birds dead out of bounds 150yds. a way. Bkown.
