NewloimdlaTid classes. G-reyhouuds aud Barzois were only 

 moderate. Fox-tfrrieus had tlie l3est dogs in England on 

 band, Venio, Vesuvienne and D'Orsay, well afc tlie head oi 

 classes. The iudgf, Mr. Southwell, thinks the latter an 

 almost perfect terrier and one that only a Buffet cotild equal 

 or beat. On the whole the judge thinks that the present 

 year of our [(ord shows the greatest improvement in fox- 

 terriers, and that the old dogs are gone for good, He sug- 

 gests that uniformity of type has not heen reached, and that 

 too much latitude is allowed in size, breeders are losing 

 sight too much of quality, and that head properties are 

 retrograding. 



The Kennel Gazette makes a rather comical typographical 

 blunder by heading the report of the Gordon setters black 

 and tan terriers, but reading the report the criticism reads 

 almost identical for the two breed.?. As usual, the sporting 

 dogs were well represented at this show, champion Gelts- 

 dale getting the challenge prize in English setters. Collies 

 were also well represented, but nothing new came out of 

 any moment. The different rough terrier classes were well 

 filled with the exeepliun of Dandies, which were said to be 

 a poor lot as a whole. Dachshuude were also good. Mas- 

 tiffs saw old Be,TOfort win in his class, but beaten by the 

 open class winner. Lord Cobrey, for the special; this dog 

 was entered at ,"5250, and he won the $200 challenge cup and 

 another $25 special. The dog is called a sour-t'aeed one and 

 not up to Beaufort's form. 



The New York and New England Poulti-y and Kennel 

 Club's show, Jan, 5 to 8, 1892, promises to be a good one in 

 point of entries. The premium list is a liberal one, most of 

 the breeds are divided by sex, and s?10, -S'S and a diploma are 

 given as prizes in the open classes. Challenge classes are 

 given diplomas only. All the more important breeds have 

 kennel prizes of $10 for the best four. The special premium 

 list affords some good opportunities for advertising at little 

 cost to the generous donors; but quite a neat sum can be 

 picked up in some of the breeds, as most of the specials are 

 cold cash. Mr. James Mortimer will .judge all classes, and 

 Mr. C. E. Rockenstyre will superintend the show. Entries 

 close with W. C. House, Fort Plain, N. Y., Dec. 26, 



Mr. H, C. Tyler, proprietor of the new Clifton House at 

 Freeport, HI., is evidently a dog man, for he honored the 

 boys with a menu the dishes of which have a familiar sound 

 to many of us, diiring the show just held:

We had our first peep at Princess Florence the other day. 

 and much as our expectation had been raised, we were 

 startled at her great size, massiveness and intense quality. 

 Full of health, and as active as a kitten, .she is indeed the 

 Queen of the breed. It is to be hoped her coat will come in 

 by W. K. G. show, aud that family arrangements will not 

 interfere with her :ippeariin<:e on the bencli in February. 

 We saw Prinrcs.s tlisi:, unfortunately, and she completely 

 dwarfs the other new an-ivak, though both Manvoi.-; of 

 ■Ripon and Hefuge !1, air; )jr)th well vvorthy at more than 

 pa-Sfsing notice, but they will be been on the bench .shortly, 

 .rod then we can devote a little more time to them. 



Specuueus of Tihe ]ieculiar breed of Jogs belonging to the 

 island of Phu-quou, or Fou-kiioc, in rhe tiulf of Siam, hsive 

 been added to the collection in the Paris Janliu des Plantes. 

 These dogs are sleek-haired and reseuible fox-terriers in size 

 and build, but are prick-eared, reddish brown in color (the 

 female being a lighter shade), with black muzzles and dark 

 lines on the forehead, like those sometimes seen in bulldogs. 



Our reporter, "Bradley," who so ably described the recent 

 beagle trials at Nanuet, is in trouble. Our compositor 

 whenever he came to the beagle man's "harked," "backed" 

 it, and when the hunter wrote "packed" the compositor 

 "tacked" it instead. These are small things in themselves 

 but they make trouble in beagle field trial reports. 



At a meeting of the Toronto Kennel Club the other even- 

 ^ ing Secretary Stone reported 37 names on the membership 

 roll and funds in hand amount to $127. There is every like- 

 lihood of the club alfiliating with the Atheneum Club of 

 that city. The club decided to hold the next members' 

 show the first Thursday in January for mastiffs, St. Ber- 

 nards, Newfoundlands, great Danes, foxhounds, beagles and 

 poodles. 



An exciting scene took place in Brooklyn last week, when 

 a Newfoundland was the means of capturing a thief. A 

 Mrs. Garcia "had seen a man in the hallway of the base- 

 ment floor, but he quickly escaped. Charlie, the dog, whose 

 owner is Frank Osborn, a neighbor, was in the areaway at 

 the time. He was a frequent visitor at the Garcia home 

 and jnuch petted. Mrs. Garcia called to the dog to capture 

 the thief. He readily understood the request and started 

 after his man. The thief had not gone many yards when 

 Charlie had him by the tail of his coat. He succeeded in 

 tossing the animal oft' and again started to run. The dog 

 quickly followed, and man and dog fought as far as Broad- 

 way aud Wythe avenue. By this time several hundred 

 people had been attracted to the scene. The man again freed 

 himself and ran to the .street, where he attempteu to jump 

 on the back of one of the Williamsbui'g News Company's 

 wagons. The dog, watching his movements, again had him 

 by the coat tail. Black found it impossible to retain his 

 hold on the back of the wagon and tried to run down Broad- 

 way. He managed to fight the dog off until the ferry was 

 reached, when the beast again seized him by the clothing. 

 He could not be shaken off, and while struggling with the 

 .-iniraal the officer arrived, 



the coop would set it going. He had not to wait long for 

 the alarm, and investigation found the door still locked but 

 a chicken had been stolen. This sort of thing went on till 

 he hadn't a chicken left in the coop. Then he borrowed 

 some hens to put in the house and even watched by the side 

 of the coop at night, but though he heard the stifled cry of 

 the abducted chicken he could find no trace of the thief, 

 One day, however, a dog came snifflng round the hen house, 

 and this gave the owner the clew, for he recognized the dog 

 as belonging to a ne'er-do-well who gained a living by hunt 

 ing rabbits in the neighboring woods. Mr. Johnsou, tht 

 whilom chicken owner, then set a trap and had the satisfac- 

 tion of seeing the dog run into it. but the canine got away 

 safely owing to the "trap not being set right. We are not 

 aware whether the dog has been caught yet or not, but that 

 he is a clever animal there is no gainsaying, as he has also 

 devoted his attention to other chicken houses in the vicinity 

 with a like good result for his unscrupulous master. 



The Bideau Kennels that have hitherto devoted them 

 selves principally to spaniels, have imported the noted fox 

 terrier Merle Guy, by Dudley Dandy out of Bodkin III. His 

 pedigree is of the Ijluest. The dog is to be renamed and put 

 in stud. At the rate they are going it will not be long before 

 Canadian breeders will be able to keep most of the prizes at 

 the shows in their own bailiwicks. 



Mr. Roland P. Keasbey has made his spaniel kennel still 

 stronger by the addition of the Sussex spaniel Beau, having 

 pui-chased him from Mr. J. F. Kirk, of Toronto. 



Who owns the spaniel Busy? is a question that the Cami 

 dian Kennel Gazette is asking, as it won at Cincinnati 

 under the name of Ancient and Modern Kennels. The bitch 

 is or was owned by Mr. J. D. G. Shaw, of Kingston, aud the 

 Kingston men are therefore jealous of the credit of the win 



The Canadian Kennel Club has just held a meeting of the 

 executive committee, at which several important alterations 

 are made in their rules. Besides raising the standard of 

 registration, which is now the .same as that of the A, K. C. , 

 several other important matters were disposed of. The club 

 has long felt the need of a stud book, and it was decided to 

 publish one annually, the work being intrusted to Mr. Don- 

 ovan, the publisher of the Cd mulian Kennel Gazette, that 

 gentleman agreeing to publish monthly in his paper the 

 registrations sent in up to the time of publication, for which 

 he is to receive $25. Messrs. Stone, Mitcheuer and Williams 

 were elected a stud book committee. The champion rule 

 has been made the same as in the A. K. C. rules. The club 

 seems to have a slight misapprehension of the rule of the 

 World's Fair dog show about the dogs being registered. 

 They require a do^ to be registered in the stud book of the 

 country from which it comes, and not necessarily in the 

 A.KC.'S.B. In the matter of Mr. Bell's St. Bernard Sir 

 .John, aged 18 months and registered as by Sir Charles, 

 who was burned in the fire of Columbus show in 1887, the 

 registration was canceled. The club will also move in the 

 matter of entering All-. Little's Clumber Newcastle without 

 authority at the Ottawa show. Twenty-one new members 

 were admitted.

Mr. F. E. -Lamb, of Woodbrook Kennels, Baltiijiore, Md. 

 imported last week on the Johnson Line steamer Barrow 

 more, from Liverpool, Eng., the rough St, Bernard bitch 

 Duchess of Arlington, for Messrs. Cobb &. MeLear, Wilming- 

 ton, She is by Lord Bute out of Lamb's Margharifca, 

 stands S3 hone.5t inches at shoulder and scaled, immediately 

 after her arrival, 168lbs She is litter sister to the noted 

 Marchioness and Marquis of Bute. Her coat is of the 

 richest orange color and markings all that could be desired. 

 Her head resembles very closely her sire's and. her body and 

 bone are very massive. She comes over in whelp to the 

 celebrated prize winner Polyphemus (champion Plinlimmon 

 —Lady Adelaide) and from this combination of blood good 

 results should be obtained. Her pm-chascrs are to be con- 

 gratulated upon the acquisition of such a valuable bitch to 

 their kennel, which now contains, in addition to the 

 Duchess; Altoness, a fine young Alton bitch, and the promis- 

 ing young imported stud dog Sir Lion, by Sir Henry out of 

 .Seacomb's Lena, winner of second Wilmington and third 

 Baltimore this yesir. 



M r. Lamb is also importing another good bitch by cbiampion 

 Young Wallace out of a litter sister to the late Prince Regent, 

 Thi.s one i8 for a well-known Southern kennel. One of his 

 Loid Bute- Clydesdale Nell pups weighs 721bs, at 4 months 

 old and is said to be wonderfully well made all over. 



A. kennel olub ha.s been formed iu Seattle, Wa.sh.. with 

 aome 25 charter members. It won't be many years before \v^

A dispatch from London states that Queen Victoria has 

 written a letter iu which she expresses sympathy with the 

 agitation now being carried on for the abolition of the sport 

 of rabbit coursing. The Pall Mall Gazette urges the Queen 

 to give evidence of the sincerity of her sympathy with the 

 movement by the withdrawal of her support from the main- 

 tenance of the royal buckhounds. 



Dogs are being poisoned again in dift'erent parts of the 

 country in a most ruthless manner. A large and valuable 

 St. Bernard was poisoned at the west end of Boston, and 

 died in great agony. Pieces of raw meat folded together 

 containing gray powder have been found on many door- 

 steps in the neighborhood. The case in question was a 

 peculiarly distressing one, as the animal was a most docile 

 and gentle animal. It is well to warn these fiends of 

 the severe penalties which can be enforced against them, 

 should they be found out. Of course it is a hard matter to 

 reason with such wretches, but would it not be b' tter, before 

 resorting to such cowardly methods, to try a repre- 

 sentation to the owner, if they have any complaint to make, 

 so that a life, which is more precious than they probably 

 realize, may be spared by such concession or restrictions as 

 may be reasonably asked for. 



We have received no premium list of the Gloversville 

 show, to be held Dec, 30 to Jan, 3, but we hear the prizes 

 will be S5 and $2.50 to challenge and open classes, and -S2,50 

 and SI. 50 in puppy classes. Mr. Chas. H. Mason will judge 

 all classes and Mr. J. Otis Fellows will superintend. We 

 hear several complaints about non i-eceipt of premium lists 

 among would-be exhibitors until the last moment. For the 

 sake of the judge this should be attended to better. 



Dr. James E. Hair, of Bridgeport, Conn., sends us a letter 

 just as we go to press, stating that he has received, per s.s. 

 Cireassia, two English setters, Devon Shotand Devon Daisy, 

 from Mr. .John Lee Bulled, North Devon, England. Dr. 

 Hair's letter, with full particulars, will appear next week. 



DAN O'CONNELL,— Detroit, Mich.— Editor Forest and 

 Stream: Dan O'Connell (16,640) is sold and out of the stud. 

 Mr. Charles J. Canfleld, of Manistee, Mich., has made the 

 second purchase of the Prairie Mound Kennels. Elsars 

 21,031 (Dan O'Connell ex Lalla Bookh, 17,869) and now Dan, 

 at a private figure. He will take both dogs South and shoot 

 over them until April 1. I take this means of informing 

 parties who have writt-en me for Dan's service. Mr. Can- 

 field will enter both dogs at the next Irish setter field trials

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS, 



There is no charge for answeriitg questions under this head. All 

 questions relating to ailments of dogs will be ansimred by Dr. T, O. 

 Sherwood, a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeofls. 

 Communications referring to other matters connected nAth Kennel 

 Management and dogs loill receive careful attention. 



G. C. C, Rochester, N. Y.— Is a light or flesh-colored roof to the 

 mouth of a red Irish seMer objectionable, providing pup is good 

 otherwise and well bred/ Ans. No. The idea that a thorough- 

 bred dog must have a black i-oofed mouth has been exploded long 



H. P. L., Worcester, Mass.— Please give pedigree of St. Bernards 

 Kip, 31,035. and Nina, 18,503. Aiis. The stud hook for 1891 is not

B., New York.— Dogs of the breeding of dog you name have pro- 

 duced good field dogs, hut this particular dog we believe has not 

 been hunted in the field, his life having been passed chiefly on the 

 show bench. Therefore, we would advise you to breed your bitch 

 to a dug of acknowledged field merit— the only way to produce 

 nMlur-H i field dogs.
