New England Beagle Club Trials. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



As I have received several communications from various 

 parties relating to the so-called "string" attached to the 

 prizes offered by the New England Beagle Cluh, I beg leave 

 to inform all concerned that at our next executive meeting, 

 to be held on Aug. 17, there is every likelihood that the 

 clause, requiring that at least ten entries be received before a 

 class is started and the cash prizes previously olf ered awarded, 

 will be repealed, and that the prizes will stand as voted, viz., 

 $75 to first, S50 to second and $25 to third in the 15-iach class; 

 the same prizes in the 13-inch class, and S50 to first, $30 to 

 second and SSO to third in the Derby. 



Inasmuch as our cash prizes are double those ofliered by 

 any other club devoted to the breed, and as the best judges 

 obtainable will be secured, as well as .superior grounds and 

 hotel accommodations, we hope to receive the un.stiuted sup- 

 port of every owner of a fine beagle and to make the compe- 

 tition at these trials the keenest of the keen, in which the 

 North, South, East and West shall meet and strive for the 

 title of field trial champion, which will be awarded the win- 

 ners of first in the champion classes. These stakes will con- 

 sist only of those dogs which have won first at the trials of 

 the National Beagle Club in previous trials and the winners 

 of first in the trials of the New England Beagle Club this 

 year. The champion classes will be run after the other 

 classes, and the winner in the lo-rach and the winner in the 

 13-inch stakes will represent the best field dogs, large and 

 small, in America— -yes, or in the world, as these trials are 

 open to all. 



A special feature of these trials will be the class for basset 

 hounds and dachshunds, which, although the prizes will be 

 on the percentage plan, will give the owners of these breeds 

 an opportunity to show whether theti- dogs are fielders or fit 

 only to be classed as lapdogs. There are many of these dogs 

 owned in New England, and their owners should now come 

 forward and second with entries the effort being made in 

 their behalf. Pull particulars of the trials, together with 

 running rules, entry blanks, etc., can be obtained of the sec- 

 retary, Mr. Winfleld S. Clark, of Linden, Mass., or the presi- 

 dent, F. Willis Chapman, Maiden, Mass. F. W. C.

The Beagle Field Trials at Nanuet. 



Editor Forest and, Stream- 

 As many inquiries are being made relative to coming field 

 trials of National Beagle Club of America, I ask for a little 

 space in your reliable news distributor. 



The trials will be held at Nanuet, N. Y., beginning Oct. 30. 

 The earliest date for closing entries for any class will be Oct. 

 5. A meeting of the executive and field trial committees wili 

 be held in New York, Aug. 28, and as soon thereafter as pos- 

 sible the premium books and entry blanks will be ready for 

 distribution. In addition to regular class prizes, which are 

 clearly fixed, there will be an interesting lot of special prizes. 

 It is also expected that a Consolation Stake for non-winners 

 in regular classes will be created during week of trials. 



Parties desiring to enter their dogs in trials of New Eng- 

 land Beagle Clab, which are to take place at Oxford, Mass., 

 in the week following, wiU find ample time and easy facili- 

 ties for reaching the second ti-ial in due season. 



As these trials are open to all comers and everybody is wel- 

 comed, it is hoped that the many thi-oughout the country 

 who have heretofore had it on their mind to see the ''merry 

 little hound" on the chase in trial races, will avail them- 

 selves this year and help to make it the large.st gathering of 

 "beagle lovers" ever seen together. H. L. Keetoer, 



President N^ational Beagle Club of America.

Beagles. 



Mr. Krehl, one of the judges at Spa (Belgium) show, says 

 that the beagles were worth a journey to see, and in his re- 

 port wi-ites: "Beagles were such a grand entry that the 

 judges asked to have the sexes divided. Reader is a sweet 

 little hound of the purest beagle type, and stands on legs and 

 feet that would make a foxhound envious. He did not win 

 too easily from Mandai-in, a grand little compact hound of 

 much character. Lonely II, won in bitches, a smaUer and 

 even better edition of her brother. Reader," etc. Mr, E. 

 Gerry Roberts wrote over to England for something to beat 

 Lonely and the other stars on tins side, but nothing could be 

 had at the time. According to this report there would seem 

 to be a chance for Mi-. Roberts to get what he requires, if he 

 is wiUiug to go the pace.

The International Coursing Meeting. 



There are probably several men who, while not owning 

 good greyhotmds themselves, would like to take a "flyer" in 

 a coursing meeting. There is just such a chance now for the 



International Coursing Meeting at Huron, S, D. Any one 

 can nominate a dog before Sept. 1 for $25, even if the dog be 

 not just at hand; he can be found afterward, Mr. James H, 

 Watson, of Brooklyn, has one or two that he is keeping for 

 late meetings but would allow to be run at Huron. Then 

 Mr. Whiton. we know, has a fast one, and Mr. Lowe, of 

 Lawrence, Kan., has a few in his kennel that he would allow 

 run at a fair figure. The prizes in the Columbus Cup Stake 

 are well worth winning, besides the Purse and the Plate for 

 those who are beaten in the first rounds and ties of the Cup. 

 The winner in the Gup gets •■?2,000, second -31,000, third and 

 fourth $250 each, four dogs §80 each, eight dogs SoO each.

National Beagle Club Meeting. 



A FIELD trial and executive committee meeting of the Na- 

 tional Beagle Club of America will be held at the A. K. C. 

 rooms, 44 Broadway, New York, Monday, Aug. 28, at 3 P. M. 

 sharp. Members of the committee are earnestly requested to 

 attend.

Mr. Harry L. Means, secretary pro tern of the proposed 

 National FoxHtmters' Association, sends out the following 

 circular: "On Ausr. 81, at Lexington, Ky., a meeting will be 

 held to organize the National Fox Hunters' Association, It 

 is especially desired that you be present, but should your 

 business be such as to prevent it, you will confer a favor by 

 sending in your name and that of any other sportsman of 

 your acquaintance for membership. The dues will not ex- 

 ceed -So per annum, which will be collected later. The meet- 

 ing will be held at the building of the Blue Grass Kennel 

 Club. 



• • • • 



For some time past our readers have now and again urged 

 PoEEST A>{D Stream to add a hunting and coursing depart- 

 ment to its other features. Recognizing the great interest 

 that is taken by a large number of sportsmen in fox hunting, 

 hare hunting and coursing, we have concluded to devote 

 space to the doings of these branches of sport in a de- 

 partment to follow the Kennel. As our friends have repeat- 

 edly promised sxtpport in this event we trust that they will 

 bear this in mind when matters of interest occur. 



• • • • 



Mr. A. C. Bradbury, manager of the Maybrook Kennels, 

 Dover Plains, N. Y.,will start about Sept. 1 for Huron, South 

 Dakota, with a team of greyhounds to prepare for the Inter- 

 national Coursing Meeting. This is a wise move on his part, 

 and as, we believe, he is willing to take other greyhounds for 

 those who wish to enter, the opportunity is one that should 

 be taken advantage of. Mr. BradToury says his dogs are all 

 well and in good shape. 



• • • • 



Mr. L. C. Whiton has entered his well known greyhound 

 Lord Neverstill and will, perhaps, enter another. Mr. Lowe 

 reports Neverstill as a much improved dog on his spring 

 form. 



• • • • 



Those who intend nominating dogs for the International 

 Coursing Meeting at Huron, S. Dak., should bear in mind 

 that they must do so by Sept. 1 vdth J. Herbert Watson, 75

Mattapoisett Annual Begatta. 



Saturday, Aug. IS. 



The open annual regatta for prizes presented by the summer 

 residents of Mattapoisett took place on Aug. 13. The classes were as 

 follows: First class, cats between 24 and 30ft, waterline: second class, 

 eats between 20 and 24ft. waterUne; third class, eats between 17 and 

 20ft. waterUne; fourth class, cats between 14 and 17ft. waterline; fifth 

 class, yachts under 14ft. The courses were 13]4 mOes for first and 

 second classes; 11 miles for the third class, 6 miles for fourth and fifth 

 classes. As there was only one entry in the first classl Fhght decided 

 not to go over the com-se. In the second class 6 boats entered: Mist, 

 Myrtle, Anonyma, Rustler and Gymnote. They started in the order 

 named; Gertrude was handicapped and withdrew. Myrtle, the new 

 boat buUt by Crosby Bros, of OstervUIe, soon took the lead and finished 

 first, a minute ahead of the Mist; Gymnote third. 



In the third class 11 boats started; the Gilt Edge and Mizpah leading, 

 the others following in a bimch. The run between Gut Edge, Nobska 

 and Tycoon to the windward buoy was very close, but on the run 

 home Nobska increased her lead, finishing first, with GUt Edge second 

 and Tycoon third. 



In the fourth class S boats started, their course was three times 

 around the harbor and made a pretty sight. Guest finished first, fol- 

 lowed by Mariana, SquaU and Charmian in the order named. Guest's 

 measurement was protested, and on remeasiu-ement she was found 

 too large for her class, giving Mariana first prize. 



In the fifth class there were 4 jib and mainsaU boats and one cat- 

 boat. Axe and Raccoon drew away rapidly from the others. It was 

 a very close race between the two, but unfortunately on the third 

 round. Axe lost her centerboard whUe only one length astern of Rac- 

 coon, she consequently won the race by five minutes, with Kid second 

 and Waskite third. A protest was entered against Raccoon by Kid 

 for fouling the judges' boat. Konungo, the oniy catboat, was saUed by 

 Miss AUce Stackpole and made the course in good shape. The times 

 were:

liavahoe. 



Navahoe has saUed in several races lately, but with no better suc- 

 cess than in those before reported. Capt. Charles Barr has left her, 

 and Capt. Toin Diaper, her pilot, has temporarUy taken his place, Mr. 

 CarroU cabling for Capt. Aubrey Crocker, who sailed Puritan in 1885 

 in the Cup races. Capt. Crocker, who has been for years in the employ 

 of Dr. John Bryant, in the old Shadow, was very unwilling to go, but 

 the whole matter was discussed aboard the flagship at Vineyard "Haven 

 by the officers and members of the New York Y. C, and as the result 

 he saUed on the Majestic on Aug. 16. The task that he has undertaken 

 in succeeding Capt. Barr is a difflcult and by no means a pleasant one. 



A very unpleasant story has been cabled from the other side of a 

 quarrel between Mr. CarroU and one of his crew during a race, in the 

 course of which Mr. Carroll struck the man and ordered him m irons, 

 which order, however, was not executed. After the race the man left 

 the vessel and threatened to prosecute the owner, who, as the story 



foes, flnaUy compromised the matter by paying £74 and his passage 

 ome. WUson & SUsby are making a new mainsail, fully as mrge aa 

 the present one, for Navahoe.
