Wissahickon Dog Show. 



We have seeu mauy lociilc>i for a dog show, hi\t one might 

 search the world over for a prettier spot than that in which 

 the WissahickoTi Kennel Club holci their first show. St. 

 Martin's tireen, where the show is held, was last week the 

 scene of the horse show, and we question the wisdom of 

 holding such a humdrum afTair as a dog sho\v so soon after 

 the gay and stirring scenes of last week. Society gets tired, 

 like everybody else. The show is the nearest approacli to an 

 open air event without actually being so that it possibly 

 could be. 'I'he Philadelphia horse show people have their 

 ranges ol stables here, and down the bi-oad aisle of one range 

 of stables a double row- of Spratts' benches accommodates 

 about 30(1 dogs; entries number 354. The roof of the aisle is 

 iron, and this morning the broiling sun just about made 

 everything and everybody as uncomfortable as possible. In 

 the afternoon, however, a very heavy thunderstorm developed 

 and rain poured in and cooled us all off. 



The dogs are not yet properly arranged in their stalls and 

 the catalogue is so fi;ll of mistakes owing to the very limited 

 time there was to get it irp after the entries closed, that 

 another edition will be issued to-morrow. Judging has been 

 postponed and will not commence until just about the time 

 Forest asd Stream goes to press to-morrow. 



There was a very limited outside attendance to-day, those 

 present being owners and others interested in the dogs. 

 Among the visitors we noticed A. Laidlaw, G. F. Fentou, 

 Geo. Bell, Heo. Thomas.W. Turner, Andv McGregor, G. Hop- 

 kins, C. A. Bousfleld of Bay City, Mich., .1. H. Winslow, F. 

 G. Taylor, G. Derby, Ben Lewis, Fred Kirl)y. Among the 

 ladies" present were Mrs. Smyth, Mrs. Meecham and Mrs. 

 Gilligan. A nice lot of dogs are here; cockers are particu- 

 larly^good, with Laidlaw, Bell and Swiss Mountain Kennels 

 represented. Setters and pointers turn out well, consider- 

 ing, and there are lots of fox-terriers and some good St. Ber- 

 nards and mastiffs. There is also an excellent show of wolf- 

 hounds; the Seacroft and Huntington Kennels are both out 

 in force. Dr. Sativeur and his riglrt-hand man Will Connors 

 ai-e working like Trojans to get everything shipshape, hut it 

 is a big nndertaking. 



The pet dogs are benched in a separate building; about 

 350 dogs are benched. H. vV. L.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. 



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

 questions relating to ailments of dogs will be answered by Dr. T. Q. 

 Sherimjod, a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. 

 Communications referring to other matters connected tuith Kennel 

 Management and dogs will also receive careful attention. 



J. H. W., Brooldyn, N, Y.— I own a thoroughbred Scotch collie bitch. 

 I bred her to a very flue looking dog whose owner told me was thorough- 

 bred too. 1 inquired further back and found that he was part Irish 

 setter. The Irish setter was evidently his sire. If I keep one of the 

 male pups of this Utter and breed him to a pure collie, would the pups 

 be consiclered thoroughbred collies '; Ans. They might appear to be, 

 but of course they are not pure bred. Tne cross is a little too near.

On the first of the present month there went into effect in the State 

 of New Jersey a new and excellent law recently passed, creating a 

 board of steamboat mspection, which shaU have control of aU the 

 waters of the State that are not under the control of the U, S. inspec- 

 tion service. The provisions of the law are similar to those of the 

 U. S. service. We believe that New Jei sey is the first State to pass 

 such a law, but the others cannot move too quickly in the same 

 dii-ection. 



TuE instances in which clubs vs hich have once adopted the length 

 and sail area rule have abandoned it for fiiiotber, aud iu particular 

 have gone back to a length rule, are so very nu e that the action of 

 several of the Boston clubs this spring is likely to attract general 

 attention. From what we can learn, the most that is advanced 

 against the Seawanhaka rule is that in one season's trial it did not 

 work an immediate cure of ^certain evils of long standing, the greater 

 number of which arc due to causes entirely foreign to the questiou of 

 measurement. We ha\-e yet to hear auy substantial objections to the 

 length and saU area rule or valid arguments in favor of the mean 

 length rules which have been adopted where it has been discarded. 



The condition of affairs among the large number of smaU clubs 

 about Boston, nearly aU of which are doiug a good deal of active' 

 racing, is by no means satisfactory; but those who are looking for a 

 remedy wiU have to go a good deal deeper into the matter than a 

 mere change of the measurement formula. The iuferests of these 

 clubs, some thirty in all, are so closely identified that there is an im-
