FOREST AND STREAM. 



496 



have beaten Fancy. In light-weight dogs, first went to 



Sailor, the Brooklyn winner; be is a little too much like an 

 English terrier, and is a little bib out at elbow and cheeky, 

 otherwise smart enough. Soda Mint is small, too full in eye, 

 short, chunky head — a rant. Nip, vhc., is too bully and did 

 not deserve mention. Lorna Doone and Nervy were the only 

 entries in the bitch class. J^orna was not well shown, has a 

 good head, fair eye, feet open, body rather long and lathy, 

 good legs; in these and head she is well in front of Nervy. 

 She also took the novice prize, second going to Lord Bland- 

 ford, Edgewood Fancy II. reserve, and Retnor Dazzle, bad 

 front, open feet, ears lying over, faulty stern, vhc. Nervy, 

 with only he, was harshly treated; getting second to the 

 winner ia the open class, she surely deserved another letter. 

 Lord Blandford and Edgewood Fancy II. supplied the puppy 

 winners. Retnor Monarch, vhc. , has a rather nice head, good 

 eye, not quite straight in front, needs filling out in body yet. 

 Mrs. Buntin's Kit won the special for be.st owned by a lady, 

 being placed over Edgewood Wonder. 



Basset HorxDs {H. W. Lucy, Judge).— Only one entry, 

 but that alxuU as good as anything yet seen out. Royal 

 Hector has a sooi 1 chest, low on the 'ground, plenty of bone, 

 nice leu.gth of body, head well shaped on the whole, though 

 stop too much defined and cut out before the eye, nice 

 leather; shown low in flesh, but hard. 



D,UTisiiuxDS (C. B. A[ason. Judge). — The well known Don 

 Quixote II. furriished th(! wiuner'in open dog.-^, and he was 

 the only one in the class. Three really nice ones put in an 

 appearance in the bitch class. Two of them were litter sis- 

 ters by Pterodactyl out of Jar.gouelle, hat Polly Finders was 

 rightly placed over Sister, beating hei- in chest, crook, muz- 

 zle and ear. Sister has an advantage only in loin, better 

 arched and darker eye, both good length and nice skins and 

 coat. Polly wog, that beat .lanet in '92 at New York was 

 third; this alone must be some satisfaction to Mr. Manice, as 

 the winners are of his breeding. In the novice class Polly 

 and Sister again won, while Pantalette, vhc, has a mean 

 head, good, deep chest, but slack back and flat loin, and has 

 nothing like the quality of the winners. Polly Finders 

 scored another blu*- for Mr. Matthews in the puppy class, and 

 second was withheld from some terrier-like specimens. 



Beagles {H. W. Lacy, Judge).— A fair entry of these little 

 hounds was forthcoming. Several well known kennels would 

 have been represented "but for the rule about fir.st prize 

 money, as it was, eighteen turned up, and with fox and Irish 

 terriers and Yorkshires had the largest number benched. In 

 challenge dogs two good ones came up, the evergreen Frank 

 Forest and RToy K; the former wins easily in head and from 

 the shoulders back: only in shoitlders and chest does Roy K 

 have an advantage. We never, in late days, saw Frank 

 Forest looking better. .Tennie was absent in challenge 

 bitch class. In LSin dogs Sport of Rockland, the winner, 

 beats Diamond F( n-e.st in head, cleanness of shoulders and size, 

 he showed himself badly, however; Diamond Forest is a very 

 useful sort bub a little coarse and quite big enough, looks as 

 if he would shine at Nanuet in the fall trials. The bitch 



CHAMPION SPRDJO. 



class had three, the winner. The Flute, a new one, is rather 

 long in body, hut has a well shaped head and good legs. 

 Fanny Racer, well known, is not qtiite true in front, faulty 

 muzzle. Prudence, very high com., was heavy in whelp, 

 and her head is long and muzzle snipy. In challenge dogs 

 The Rambler had liUle difficulty in beating Rockland Boy, 

 who however excels the other in shoulders, his skull and ear 

 are also xitry good, the other however is a better beagle. 

 Oh. Lou. showing himself quite well, added another challenge 

 win to her score." The next class for I3in. bitches brought 

 out foui-. and the typical Minnie Mite scored easily. Fanny 

 Read, much too fat, would have been second bn t for that, 

 it made her long tinemnzzle look still finer. Weenannon, 

 second, is slightly dislied faced and needs filling out more in 

 body, good front." Queen of the Forest, very high com., has 

 nice .skull and ear, but muzzle is poor, good legs, body and 

 type, lint for her muzzle would be quite good when she fills 

 out, being only a puppy yet. The novice class had Sport of 

 Pi.ockland and'Thc Flute, in front only does the latter score, 

 as Sport is rather wide there, but is all round better type 

 aud of cobbler build. In puppies Cry Baby beat Queen of 

 the Forest in head and substance. The Rockland Kennels 

 took the kennel prize and the specials for best beagle with 

 Frank Forest. 



Fox-TEKt!iERS Uxcriiian HnpMm, Judge).— The classes 

 were well .supported for such a show aud little if any fault 

 was found with the judging. In the absence of Ripon 

 Stormer, champion Dusky Trap and Bev^erwyck Punster did 

 battle. The old dog looked well, barring his coat, which 

 was ragged. Punster had to take second place, losing in 

 body and skull to the other dog and also in terrier character. 

 Open dogs had three entries, two absent, which left Raby 

 Domino barren honors; he is a much improved dog on his 

 Toronto form, he has a good front bat is long in body, broad 

 in sktiU aud faulty in quarters. Becky Sharp was absent in 

 bitches, only entry. The novice winner was Arrandale Mi.x- 

 ture, who beats Bar None in body and .skull; the latter's feet 

 are not close enough, ears big, just a useful sort. Paul Pry, 

 vhc, has a thick coarse skull and short muzzle, and ears are 

 pricked most of the time. In bitches, Daisy scored, her skull 

 is coarse and head too short, good front, lots of coat but .soft. 

 Second was withheld, aud vhc. given to Danity, whose heavy 

 shoulders, .short chunky head, big ear, small size and not 

 very good front sufficed to put her down. Lady Madge is weak 

 in pasterns and turns her feet out, ears badly carried and is 

 too full in eye, a poor lot altogether. Arrandale MLxture 

 won in dog inippies, beating Prince easily, who has a mean 

 chunky head.- Lady Bess was counted the best of the bitch 

 puppies, beating Trix, faulty in ear, shown too fab, but has 

 not a badly shaped head. ' The wires were mitch better 

 quality and this is something unusual. St. Broom, in fair 

 tritu, furnished the challenge entry. Three turned up in 

 open dogs, the Now York winner, St. Brittle, scoring again; 

 behind him was the well known Suffolk Grip, coarse in skull 

 and coat should be crisper, good bone and fi-ont. Suliolk 

 Trimmer has a long head but little expression, ears well 

 carried: he is, however, rather leggy and light and long in 

 body. In bitches, a pre^dous winner in Sister Trick, was 



E laced first; she is more like a smooth at present, ears blunt, 

 uflfolk Tease is a better type, but poor in front, fair coat 

 and lots of it. Sister Grit took both novice and puppy prizes 

 without competition; .she had gone home when we came 

 round. Mr. H. W. Smith took the kennel prize. 



Irish Terriers (German HoplcinH, ./■«(?(/e).— Jackanapes 

 was the only entry in challenge class and he did not turn 

 up. The dog class, for qtxality, was probably as good as any 

 in the show. Merle Grady was hailed the winner; he loses 

 to Brickbat, Jr., Mr. Syinonds's new dog, in muzzle, but 

 taken all round is of a' smarter style. Brickbat, Jr., is a 

 well-modeled terrier aud for those who like them big would, 

 no doubt, be thought hardly treated; he has straight legs, 

 excellent long head, with well-carried drop ears, fair coat, 



TOOTSIE. 



well-made body and excellent front, his size is his only 

 seriotis fatilb in our opinion. Romulus, reserve, is a good 

 stamp of terrier, but a bit big in ear. Fenian Boy, vhc, is 

 too heavy in shoulders and coarse in skull, good muzzle and 

 not true enough in front. The Alderman was third at Bos- 

 ton in puppies. Paddy P. has a short head, coarse skull 

 and heavy, wide front; excepting for good wiry coat, hardly 

 deserved his he. In bitches the Washington winner, Judy, 

 came to the front again and George Thomas had his revenge. 

 Little Maid, second^ has been commented on before in these 

 columns. Erin, vhc, is pretty much on the large side. C. 

 was given to Carna; bad expression, short head and muzzle. 

 Brickbat, Jr. , won easily in novices, followed by Shaun Rue, 

 lately commented upon. Larry, he, is coarse and heavy in 

 shottlders, coat of good texture, but shedding. The Alder- 

 man won in puppies and second went to Edgewood Sur- 

 prise, commended in novice class, faulty head and front. 

 Huguenot Kennels took the kennel prize and Mr. W. J. 

 Comstock's Merle Grady won the special for best in the 

 show 



Black and Tan Terriers (C. LL. Mason, Judge).— Sevenii 

 new ones appeared here, but nothing very startling was 

 brought out Broomfleld Sultan and Queen III. were placed 

 in challenge class in the order named; the former beats ii 

 front and coloring. A new one, Glenwood, quite a likely ter 

 rier, came out in the open dog cla.ss; good long head, legs and 

 short body, stern not well carried and markings on legs run 

 in, plenty of bone and quite big enough. A yonng.ster, Ro- 

 chelle Lord, came next; he is uncropped, and has not the 

 head, bone and substance of the other; faulty markings, but 

 a fair sort. .Jasper, reserve, is getting coarser in shoulders- 

 and head all the time. The well-known Broomfield Madge 

 won in bitches; second withheld. Nellie is a poorish toy, 

 with small, short head. Glenwood won in novice over Ro- 

 chelle Lord, Lady Nellie Goodwood getting he, for what we 

 cannot tell, as she is a short-headed toy. Rochelle Lord was 

 the puppy winner. 



White English Terriers (E. U. Morris, Judge).— A very 

 poor apple-headed specimen was the only entry and did not 

 deserv^e a card, never name first prize; Blink Bonny, shown at 

 Y''ojxkers, is worth a street full of him. 



Dandie Dinmonts {James Mnrtimer, Judge).— Only one 

 real one in the dog class, and this thenew one, Raglan Sandy, 

 not long or strong enough in muzzle, good bone, crooked 

 front, nice body, but short of coat. Roxie is a Skye. Qui 

 Vive was the only Bedlington shown; he is well knowm. 



Scottish Terriers (C. LI. Mnmn, JiicZye).— Only two, and 



ROMEO. 



these good ones. Trree had no difficulty in beating Rhudi- 

 man in head, front and coat. 



Skye Terriers {Dr. Gryer, Judge).— Au entry in each 

 class, but one turned out to be a Y'"orkahire. EndclifC Mag- 

 gie, in challenge class, was alone and was in nice coat, but 

 soft. Wheel of Fortune was also alone in bitches; she is of 

 good type and carries an excellent coat of good texture. A 

 Clydesdale terrier was entered. Belle of Clyde, lots of coat, 

 but needed a brushing. The Welsh terrier was absent. 



Boston Terriers {James 3Lortimci\ /ye,).— These were 

 poor and bully in appearance. Prince Walnur was absent 

 m dogs, while" Toby, removed from the .show after his prize 

 was withheld, was alone in open dogs. Bitches had two en- 

 tries; Madge, the winner, is a nice little sort, but too bully, 

 good front; Ciney was third at Boston, very much of a 

 round head. Ned won in novices he is heavy in front and 

 bully looking; second withheld. 



Whippets (E. LI Morris, Judge).— The well known Boston 

 Model was the only entry. 



Yorkshire Terriers {Dr. Cryer, JiuZge).— The entry here 

 was quite a surprise, as interest in this breed seems to have 

 dwindled down very much lately. Ch. Ben showed up once 

 more in challenge dogs; he is now ten years old. bub looking 

 well; he ha« lost his color to some extent. In open dogs the 

 well known Y^'oung Ted .scored again, his nice tan and' body 

 color and length of coat being too much for Prince, whose 

 tan is light but coat plentiftil. The winner in bitches should 

 be richer and brighter in tan; she is quite big enough. Judy 

 was the New York winner and was the best coated one in the 

 lot, nice body color but tan mixed; should have been placed 

 first I thought. Jennie, reserve, has a light body color and 

 smutty light tan. Spark, the novice winner, was tran.sf erred 

 from the Skye class, is on the larger order with smutty tan, 

 mixed blue, good long coat. Yipper, second, too dark in 

 body color. Jocko, reserve, is one of the old sort and Tatters 

 does not belie his or her name. 



Tot Terriers.— Lots of them but none that really came up 

 to the mark. In dogs first was withheld and second given to 

 Jerry, who has a longstring of wins to his credit; he is rather 

 on the large size for a toy and very apple-headed. Prince, 

 reserve, is better in head. ' In bitches, Gregan, better in coat 

 than most of these terriers and not so apple-headed, won 

 from Jennie, nice size, but little tan markings. No\dce, first 

 was withheld, second going to Jimmie, a rough-haired ter- 

 rier, aud Baby, reserve, is in whelp and not at all up to the 

 mark. 



Pugs (James Mortim,er, Judge).— Gham-pion Bob Ivy and 

 Nellie Bly furnished the challenge winners, both looking 

 well. The second prize winner at New York, Waddles, won 

 in open dogs; he is a capital bodied dog, nice head and wrin- 

 kle, and ears can be made to set well; good legs; quite a nice 

 sort. Ivy Boy, second, fair head, nice body, cnvl and trace. 

 Tip Top, vhc, has been before us before; he loses in body 

 and head to the others. First was withheld in bitches and 

 second went to Lillie, whose light body, faulty quarters and 

 loin and long muzzle hurt her chances. .Jane was the only 

 novice entry; she has good wrinkle and skull but is long in 

 body and muzzle and has big ears. The winning pup, Gracie 

 B., has a capital skull and curl for a pup. 



King Charles Spaniels {James Mortimer, .Judge).— 'With 

 the exception of Romeo and King of the Charlies, well known 

 winners in the challenge and open dogs respectively, there 

 was nothing particularly meritorious; both were well shown. 

 Bonita won in bitches but I could not Bud her. Lady Delina, 

 second, has a better skull than muzzle, nice tan and plenty 

 coat, but rather curly. Princess, reserve, has a rather good, 

 short head, high skull aud rich tan, light in body and is a bit 

 leggy. Little Gracie has a good, short muzzle and high 

 skull, ears small, coat not flat enough, and has dark, smutty 

 tan. Bonita won in novices from the long-muzzled Minnie, 

 who could only get he; body too light. 



Blenheim Spaniels (0. LL. Mason, Judge).— We expected 



''9- 



to see more and better entries of these at such a show, but 

 good ones are scarce as hens' teeth. Murilla ably filled the 

 challenge class. She has the best head in the lot, but is get- 

 ting cloddy in body and curly coated. In open bitches 

 Queen, small head, coat not flat enough, and not straight 

 enough in front by any means, was alone and took the blue. 

 The novice cla'^s was hard on the judge, as three ladies 

 brought in the three entries and all expected to win; only 

 one could do so, and Lill took the cake, better and .shorter 

 faced than Sallie Pippin, who in turn is better than Snooks 

 both in body and head, the latter being too leggy and long 

 faced. Sallie gained fame afterward in the popular vote 

 contest, 



Prince Charles Spaniels (James jlforMwer, Judge),— A 

 capital little one in Snob was to the fore in the dog class, nob 

 quite enough tan, but is very short faced^ deep in stop and 

 good skull, and is an active little spaniel as well. He re- 

 peated the win in the novice class over Queen Vie, first in 

 bitches, who is long in muzzle and has a poor expression. 



RuBT Spaniels (C. LL. Mason, Judge).— Unhy Prince, the 

 winner in dogs, has a well - shaped head, muzzle of course 

 could be shorter to advantage, plenty of coat, but not a very 

 bright, rich color. King Ruf as, second, is rather long faced 

 and short in ear. capital legs, but tucked up in body. Cam- 

 paniui, reserve, is lathy and leggy, but has not a bad head 

 and eye better than the average spaniel, and his legs are 

 straight, though too long. He won in novices. 



Japanese Spaniels, — We expected to see many more 

 entries in this breed, Mrs, Clarke's dogs not showing up 

 robbed the competition of some interest, Ch. Nanki-Poo, 

 without opposition, scored another challenge win; he looked 

 well. Mrs. Senn farmed the next class, getting first and 

 second with Prince Yodo and Royal II,, both ubav ones; the 

 winner is a fairly well headed one, with good body and legs 

 and nice coat; the second winner occupied the same position 

 at San Franci.sco last month; his skull is capital but he 

 should be shorter in muzzle; he is also a trifle large. There 

 Ts as no questioning Tootsie's superior merit in the bitch 

 cltiss, in fact she was the best in the show, and won the Jap- 

 anese vase for that distinction; very short faced and deep 

 stop, nice coat and body. Tamah, second is an old winner, 

 and Kiku, \rhc. , is quite a nice little thing and should have 

 been, I think second. Tozzo, first in novices, is long in 

 muzzle and coarse in skull. 



Italian Grethohnds {C. LI. MasorL, .j udge). — Spring was 

 again to the front in the challenge class; he was nicely 

 shown. Louris, first at New York, is a little too full in skull 

 and weak in muzzle before the eye; nice otherwise. In the 

 bitch class first went to Tinnie, a nice size, well carried ears 

 and nice head, good legs. Lady Lee, second, is faulty in 

 muzzle and rather apple headed. Folly, reserve, could have 

 changed places with the others; better" head, size aud ears 

 than Lady Lee. The only Schipperke, Imp Jack, won in 

 open and novice classes, 



Mexican Hairless.— These were given to Dr. Cryer, and 

 we suppose they were rightly placed. The win ner in dogs 

 was the well known Pippo; h"e looks as if he had a nice home.
