Tbf annual dinner to jitd.t;'es, exhibitors and press took 

 place at Delmonico's on Tuesd.ny night at 7 :80 P. M, Nearly 

 all those wbo.se names are .given as present at the do.g show 

 partook of the good things proN'ided. Mr. Tom Teri'.\- stit at 

 the head ot the talile, with Mr, Buchanan, Conivnis.s'ioner of 

 Agriculture at the ^V^l^ld's Fair, on his left, aud Mr. W. C. 

 Reick ou his right. When cigars Avere lighted. Dr. Kowe 

 proposed the hettlth of the Westminster Keiuiel Clul) and 

 Mr. Terry responded, and then called upon Mr. Buchanan for 

 Ills views oil the World's Fair .show. 



Mr. Buchan.fin re^'ie\yed briefly the progres.s made in the 

 arrangements o£ the Fy.xpositiiui and the pi-ogress made in 

 the mechanical eoustrtictioD, and the condition of affairs at 

 the pre.sent time. Notwithstanding the i ttipedimeuts to the 

 Avork this A\'inter— the heavy snow, severe cold, etc. — the 

 buildings were nearly finished. Five thousand men were 

 employed each day. No A\'ork of similar magnitude had ever 

 been undertaken before. Forty-three foreign nations will 

 participate. Many exhibits were now in Chicago and on the 

 ocean en. route. 



Spealdng directly of keuuel interest,?, the management at 

 first doubted the value of the dog shoAv as a feature of the 

 exposition. Much assistance Avas given by the A. K. C. and 

 related bodies. The challenge class was disapproved and all 

 dogs will compete in the open class. The zeal, skill and fidel- 

 ity with which Mr. Mortimer will superintend the show 

 were earnestly mentioued. He thanked tlie A. K. C. for the 

 kindness sho-wn iu the past. 



Toasts to Mr. Buchanan .and the World's Fair, and Messrs. 

 Sherwood, Cleather aud V^retlenbttrg Avere given. Mr. Vre- 

 denliurg, in respon.se to calls for a .speech, said that the 

 A. K. C. juust be very grateful to Mr. Buchanan for the 

 kimdly way in \yhicii he met the wishes of the A. K. C. 

 When he 'fir.st met Mr. Buchaiiait, he thought that the 

 World's Fair and Mr. Buchanan would never agree. At a 

 later meeting all differences distippeared. The plan of Mr. 

 Buchanan, in respect to classes, vs as a s\\ eepstake. He 

 thought the plan Avould meet the views of exhibitors. The 

 World's Fair deferred more to the A. K. C. than to any other 

 body represeuting the interests of livestock. It was 'due to 

 the AA'crld's Fair that each specialty club do something to 

 inake it more valualile. 



Mr. Anthony, Dr. R. iwe and Mr. Reick made brief speeches. 

 Dr. J. Prank Perry, in response to calls from every one, 

 spoke briefly, and ended ^^•ith a toast, which contained a very 

 pretty sentlmeBt. "Here's to our humble friends. When 

 Ave climb the golden stair, may we find then^ ^waiting us." 



Gordon Setters at Shows. 



Editor Forest and Stredin: 



A letter to me from Mr. Steiitmetz, president of tlie Wash- 

 ington City Kennel Club, dated Feb. la, says: "1 assure you 

 that it was not the iatention of our committee to slight 

 Gordons in any Avay, Imt the error made iu the premium list 

 will be corrected by giA iiig n separate challen.ge class for 

 tTOrdon setter dogs and bic^hes."' 



This should cill out a, good exhibit. Gordons are less 

 nuirieroiis than English or Irish setters autl are necessarilA' 

 sliown iu smaller classes; but I cannot sec the wisd.im of in-

Type and "Working Spaniels. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



In nine cases out of teu the man Avho argues against fash- 

 ionable type is under the suspicion of interested motives 

 either he is praising the type of his own dogs in general, or 

 Avas before the tlispute as to type came up. But in this case 

 I got the bitch Busy F. not as the kind that wins, but as thjA 

 kind that ought to. 



A t the last Rochester show T saw a very handsome blae!k 

 and tan cocker bitch, one of the real old sort. I gave her firs 

 prize, and at once opened correspondence with her OAvner 

 about buying her. He Avould not sell until the season Avas 

 closed (and right here I Avish to remark that last season the 

 bitch had 39'3 birds killed OA'er her). Iwas mad when I heard 

 she Avas sold. It seems ray friend Mr. Wade heard about this 

 working spaniel. Of course, some one will say he does not 

 know a good spaniel; but, all the same, he was a charter 

 member of the Spaniel Club, The bitch AA-as entered at Glov- 

 ersN'ille in our kennel name, and I was surprised to receiA^e 

 her by express, Avith card on collar, "Xmas to 'Uncle Dick' 

 from his Nevey," Did I feel glad? You bet; and I feel good 

 still, notwithstanding the remarks made about her. To read 

 the comments one would think she had legs like a crane; that 

 her hocks A\-ere turned the Avron.g way like a modern mastifl: 

 or St. Bernard; that her muzzle was like a Avoodcock aud her 

 eyes like gooseberries. But that all amounts to nothing, for 

 I'know that she is the true and most desirable type for the 

 field, and any one AA'ho ba' er uses that type is couAdnced that 

 it is Jjust Avhat the fancy wants. 



A beagle and cocker are both required to do hard work; in 

 fact, to be goers and stayers. Why don't the breeders for 

 fancy shorten tlie beagle's leg about four inches, so his brisket 

 Avill touch the grotinct the same as the modem cocker? The 

 best beagle in America stands ju.st under 13in.; my cocker 

 bitch is just under 14in., but forearm girths l^in. more than 

 the beagle, antl they say the cocker is light in bone. 



I have bred, trained and worked cockers for thirty-fiYe 

 years; in that time I learned a feyv things. Big bone means 

 a big head, antl a big-headed cocker is positiA^ely no good. 

 You must keei) the type of field and cocker spaniels distinct. 

 I can prove that in the Avhole of America there are not 

 twenty-five true cockers, i. e., bred from cockers for fiA^e gen- 

 erations. I ha\'e as much Obo blood in my kennel as any 

 one, but I knoAv it is not cocker blood by any means, but 

 just field spaniel, bred from field spaniels, aud when they are 

 bred down to 28lbs. and just a bit cobby (that is, only in the 

 last year or so), then they are cockers, but the shape of the 

 head is just the same. 



I do not know about field spaniels in England, but I have 

 owned the best that came to America. I never knew one 

 that AA'as Avorth a cent afield. Benedict, one of the first and 

 best imported, could not be trained. Capt, McMurdo tried 

 it, so did 1, but the dog never had any hunting sense. The 

 first bitch he was bred to Avas Madcap, n real old-style cocker. 

 One of the produce AA'^as Wilmerding's champion Black 

 Prince; he is a worker, but no one Avill ever believe that he 

 got his hunting instinct from his sire; and you Avill find it so 

 all doAvn the line the further you get from the field spaniel; 

 or, iu other AA'ords, the smaller and more aristocratic you get 

 the heads the better they are for the field. The field spaniel 

 can be compared to the plow horse, while the cocker is like 

 a thoroughbred racer. No one ever saAV a cocker, a horse or 

 a man v^ ith a big head that could go and stay.

For Detroit Dog Sho'w. 



FldMor Forest and. St ream: 



I am pleased to announce to intending exhibitors at the 

 coming Detroit sIioaa' that the management of the Chicago 

 & Grand Trunk Railway have kindly consented to carry all 

 dogs free iu baggage car when accompanied by owners or 

 care-taker.s. 



This offer is froin Chicago to Detroit on main line or any 

 bi-anches of the Grand Trunk connecting therewith. And 

 should it become necessary a special car for carrying dogs 

 Avill start from Chicago tSunday night, March 19. Exhibit- 

 ors on any branch roads can arrange to connect with such 

 main line and have then- exhibits transferred to the sp^^ial 

 baggage ear. 



NoAv, gentlemen, I hope the action of the Grand TrtinK: in 

 this matter Avill be appreciated not only by exhibitors at 

 Detroit, but by dogmen at large. This ofi'er by the Grand 

 Trunk is certainly very liberal, and the only way exhibitors 

 or their friends can reciprocate would be by giving such 

 roads as the Grand Trunk, Avho assist exhibitors, and in this 

 way further the interests of bench shows and help to make a 

 success, the preference of travel over other roads when such 

 can possibly be done. Such concessions like this should not 

 be forgotten by all friends of dogs and dog shows. .T am not 

 at all interested in the Grand Trunk more than other roads. 

 Nor do I receive any annual pass. But I do think that 

 Avhenever a chance presents itself said road should haA'e 

 preference over others less lilieral in their actions toAvard 

 tramportation of dogs. 



It Avould be well for intending^exhibitors ab Detroit to 

 notify the secretary as soon as possible Avhat exhibits Avill be 

 going over theGrand Trunk road and branches, in order 

 that lie may adA'ise me in time in regard to the special bag- 

 gage car, as it will be unnecessary to start one if there are 

 not sufflcient to occupy the same. JoHsr H. N AYLOR.

The Handler Knows Why. 



Editor Forent and Strectm: 



The remarks by "Cynic" onfleld trials are quite interesting 

 reading, and the greater part of them are literally true. But 

 I do not believe but that every handler "knows" in his own 

 mind just how he Avas beaten iu "'competition." I, for one, 

 ha\'e not the least renuirk to make as to the spotting out of 

 my bitch Ruby Blade in the late Southern trial.s, and, know- 

 ing her as I ilo, I think none the less of her for the showing 

 she made, as she has had less than three weeks' actual work 

 on game. I also Avish to add that the Southern trials, as long 

 as they conduct their meetings as they have so far, are de- 

 serving the patronage and support of all loA'ers of the setter 

 and pointer. They play no favorites; the best dogwins, as he 

 should always. R. B. MOEGAlv.

J. L. Batchelor's dog circus at Cliicago was really good and 

 A^ery amusing. MauA' of the tricks Avere new. Jumbo, the 

 somersault dog, does bis liackward twist over the back of one 

 of the pioodles, anoclier waltzes to the "music" played by 

 "Grover Cleveland" on a miniature piano. The poodle is a 



atannch Democrat and knows his business.
