FOREST AND STREAM. 



ispued by the Seminole Kennels. There are several capital 

 pictures of the noted dogs in the kennel. One of cham- 



?ion Rosiyn Wilkes is especially good, and so is that of the 

 rish setter champion Tim. The kennel contains some of 

 the best blood obtainable in the three breeds, Irish setters, 

 collies and pugs, of which their owner makes a specialty. 



It was a matter of great surprise to Mr. George Raper 

 when he saw tbe large number of excellent Japanese spaniels 

 that were brought before him at the late JSTew York show. 

 He remarked then that it was the finest collection he had 

 ever seen. It is more than likely that Mrs. Eugene Clark, 

 who stands facile, princeps in this breed, will be able to 

 materially strengthen her kennel, as her husband sailed re- 

 cently from San Francisco, Cal., on a visit to Japan, and 

 will bring home some of the best of the breed that he can 



Good Reason— She— ''That odious Mrs. Newritch seems to 

 think more of her dog than of her boy." He— "Oh, well, 

 the dog has a pedigree."— ii/c. 



Dr. GriffiD, of Hamilton, Ont., who is well known as an 

 ardent sportsman and also as vice-president of the Hamilton 

 Kennel Club, sails this week for Europe, with the intention 

 of buying some good bull-terriers. 



We are pleased to note that Mr. E. Knight Sperry, of New 

 Haven. Conn., has been elected secretary of the New Eng- 

 land Field Trial Club. Mr. Sperry is in touch with field 

 matters, and we have no doubt that he knows how best to 

 serve the club by bringing it more prominently to the atten- 

 tion of the kennel press than has been the case so far. The 

 New England Field Trial Club should not hide its light 

 under a bushel. 



We regiet to announce tbe death of Mr. James P. Kerr, 

 the proprietor of tbe Breeder and Sporl.t<man. Mr. Kerr 

 was well and favorably known on the Pacific slope, having 

 been for many years connected with the San Francisco Call. 

 Ten years since he started the paper which he owned at the 

 time of his death. Mr. Kerr was born in Scotland in 1853, 

 and died June 27, 1892, at Denver, Col , where he had gone 

 to try and recover his health. 



Tbe recent cricket match between North and South of 

 England hae creatfd a feeling among several of our dogmen 

 that a similar game should be arranged over here There 

 are difficulties in the way of such a meeting; still, if a com- 

 mittee of three cculd be formed to undertake the prelimin- 

 aries, we see no reason why some such reunion should not 

 take place. We have a list now of about twenty-five well- 

 known dogmen who would more than probably "take part, 

 and should be pleased to receive the names of those who 

 would really care to join in and make a pleasant day of it. 

 Mr. Harry Twyford can secure a field for operations, and no 

 doubt a little gathering of this sort will add to the good 

 feeling that should prevail among all members of the 

 fancy. 



Mr. J. E. Long, of St. Louis, Mo., who is well known to 

 all collie men as a breeder, and a judge at Chicago shows, 

 is probably by this time on his way to England, where he 

 will purchase some collies for his kennel. 



Mr. Rawdon Lee's crack English setter Richmond met 

 with a painful accident in liondon recently, breaking one of 

 the bones in a hind leg. 



In commenting on the great number of English dog 

 ghows, Mr. Freeman Lloyd wonders where all tbe dogs 

 come from that make them possible. He says there must 

 be, roughly speaking, 10,000 show dogs in England at present. 



An important case bearing on the sale of dogs from pounds 

 and dog homes, such as the institution in London, has just 

 been decided in England. It seems a young lady bought a 

 dog from the Battersea Home for Lost Dogs, kept it for some 

 time until it was recognized by its former owner and action 

 brought for its recovery. The judge ruled that, despite the 

 authority given the secretary of the Home by the Commis- 

 sioner of Police to sell dogs after detaining them three days, 

 he had no right to do so in law, and the dog was restored to 

 its former owner, the young lady being allowed the price she 

 paid for the dog. 



They are asking in America, "Will beagles follow a drag?" 

 Will a bear eat honey? Will a fowl bask in the sun— Will 

 a frog go a-wooing— Will a fool follow his nose— Will a 

 soldier follow a cook? Well, what do you think?— iitocTc- 

 Keeper (Eng.). 



If a thing is worth doing at all it is worth doing well is 

 evidently the idea that prevails in Goshen, Ind. The other 

 day a "mad dog" bit a number of animals. Twenty-seven 

 dogs were exterminated during the afternoon owing to the 

 difficulty in identifying the one affected. 



The Horse— How are you getting along, old fellow? 

 The Dog— Oh, I have to work like a horse. How's things 

 with you? 



The Horse— I live a regular dog's lite.— Judge. 



Owing to the exertions of "Billy" Graham, who is so well 

 and faA'orably known over here, the Irish terrier classes at 

 Belfast show were filled with a record entry, no less than 

 168 entries facing the judge, and competition, especially in 

 the open dog class, was so keen that many well-known win- 

 ners were shut out of the money. 



Arrangements have been made, according to the English 

 Field, by the National Pointer and Setter Field Trial Com- 

 mittee, to hold a meeting over grouse during the forth- 

 coming shooting season. It will take place August 23, on 

 Mr. Hey wood Lonsdale's place at Kingussie, Invernessshire, 

 Scotland. Such a meeting has often been talked of but little 

 or nothing has been done. It will be quite a change from the 

 usual English style of trials in the spring, when necessarily 

 no birds are shot over the dogs. 



There was a sale at Aldridge's, London, the other day, 

 and the pointers and setters belonging to that fine old 

 sportsman, Mr. Thomas Statter, who died some time since, 

 were sent to the block. Prices ruled small, Toil, a field trial 

 winner, only bringing *70 and the lot $715. Mr. Lloyd 

 Price's yearly draft brought good prices, Saule, a well- 

 known field trial pointer, fetching 1420. 



One of the most useful small terriers we have heard of is 

 one which helps an English electric light company to carry 

 wires through the pipes laid underground. The terrier has 

 been so trained that when a light cord is attached to him he 

 runs through the conduit from one man-hole to the next, 

 dragging the cord with him. After each performance he is 

 treated to some favorite morsel, and he has thus come to 

 consider his work a pleasure. 



Among the new advertisements this week we notice that 

 R. H. Alberts, Jr., offers a kennel of English setters for 

 sale; R. O'Neill, English foxhound; H. G. Hallowell, litter 

 of Irish setter pups; J. M. Fronefield, Jr., English setter 

 pup; Samuel Abraws, two me^stiff pups, 0. D. Roberts ftd' 



vertises portraits of his pointer Duke of Dexter; BdFishet 

 wants dogs to break. 



We have received from Mr. Stone a list of the railroads 

 that carry dogs free to the Toronto show, but space will not 

 permit of our publishing them this week. They will appear 

 in the premium list. 



J. Cumming Macdona, who Is so well known in England 

 as a thorough sportsman, and to American lovers of the St. 

 Bernard as the pioneer breeder in England, has just been 

 elected Member of Parliament for Rotherhi the, England. 



A good joke was played on the two farmers who judged 

 collies at Edinburgh, Scotland. A Mr. Tait, according to 

 Scottish Fancier, led in his celebrated Young Elsinore 

 (which was not entered), to see how they would treat a good 

 collie. Result— first out; award nothing! 



As only two members of tbe board of governors of the 

 National Greyhound Club are in New York city at present, 

 the meeting which was to have been held last Monday was 

 postponed. 



The regular quarterly meeting of the New England Field 

 Trial Club will be held at 2fi6 Washington street, Boston, 

 Tuesday, July 13, at 2 P. M. A meeting of the board of gov- 

 ernors will be held at the same time and place. 



We should not think that the climate of Florida would 

 suit St. Bernards, but P. L, Siegel, proprietor of the Plaza 

 Hotel, Pensacola, has just purchased Prince Rupert, by 

 champion Ben Lomond out of Bernie IV. Prince Rupert 

 will have as a kennel mate Princess Lula, a daughter of the 

 celebrated Sir Bedivere, "who saved upward of seventy-five 

 lives in his time," so the local paper tells us. This will be 

 news to Mr, Sears.

Commodore Gerry made a vcy unfortunate allusion in a recent 

 interview when he spoke of respecting the last wishes of the late 

 Mr. Schuyler, as such a remark naturally suggests an inquiry as to 

 how the wishes of the other four original owners of the America 

 Cup have been observed by those who have twice ventured to med- 

 dle with the original conditions, finally obliterating them entirely. 

 It is a matter of history that the reception which Com. Stevens and 

 his party met witb on their arrival in British waters was neither 

 chivalrous nor generous, the fame of tbe yacht bad preceded her, 

 and yacht owners declined to give her a race. This treatment was 

 keenly felt by Com. Stevens, as his correspondence shows ; but when, 

 a few years later, he and tbe other four owners drew up the condi- 

 tions under which they intended presenting the Cup to the club, they 

 threw the compttition open boldly to England and the whole world. 

 No one can read the original deed without being lmpres.sed with the 

 fair and sportsmanlike spirit which inspired it, and the absence of 

 any vindictive or retaliatory feehng. The wishes of these Ave own- 

 ers, so clearly expressed, have been utterly disregarded in the subse- 

 quent returns and reacceptances of the Cup; and yet the plea is made 

 that a change which is imperatively demanded by all fair-minded 

 yachtsmen must not be made because the lastwishes of Mr. Schuylei- 

 must be respected. 



The report of a new challenge for the America Cup, based on a 

 positive offer of a challenge in the event of the rescinding of the 

 present deed of gift, has renewed a good purpose in provoking a 

 difcussion of the whole subject. The more American yachtsmen 

 learn of the terms of the new deed and the manner in which the doc- 

 ument was forced upon the New York Y, C, the better chance there 

 is of a return to the true deed. The comments in the daily papers 

 tell the story of the great change iu public opinion, lu 18S7 but two 

 American journals, Forest and Stbbam and rhe New York World, 

 dared to say that the New York Y. C. was wrong both in making a 

 most arbitrary change in the conditions, and in requiring so much 

 from the challenger; DOW the course of the club is boldly discussed 

 by the leading daily papers. 



At every fresh rumor of a change of the new deed the Boston 

 Herald rushes to the defence of the New York Y. C. with the historic 

 if somewhat time-worn remark of Mr. J. Malcolm Forbes, to the 

 effect that it is not any well grounded objection to the new terms 

 that prevents Brittsh yachtsmen from challenging, but the recollec- 

 tion of the "two miles of open water betweenVohmteer and Thistle." 

 When a man has an oppoi-tunity to distinguish himself by a clever 

 bon mot, it is asking altogether too much that he should deny him- 

 self out of regard for anything so trivial as the truth; and under the 

 ci: cum-tancps Mr. Forbes cannot be blamed for his remark. At the 

 same time all American yachtsmen know that this reflection on the 

 plucKand courage of their antagonists is most unjust and untruthful. 



The last race for the Cup was flnis'aed at 4;30P. M, on Oct. 1, off the 

 Scotland Lightship, the entire fleet reaching New York about 6 P. M. 

 Within two hot;r§ lat^r a forinal notice of another challenge was
