class, and more par fcicularly^ when they were owned by the 

 vice-president of the club. Under the cirenmstances, the 

 liaatter looked in exceeding bad taste, in addition to being 

 wrong. Bentick, the King Charles, was awarded first. 



Italian Greyhounds were an ordinary lot. The two dogs 

 were both rather large, Frank winning first, Stanley second. 

 Pink had a walkover, and hardly merited the prize she re- 



Miscellaneous Class.— There were three competitors in 

 this class, one of which was called a Japanese pug. The 

 other two w^ere Ruby spaniels, csvned by the vice-president 

 of the club. Again there was a long wrangle, the arrange- 

 ment of the class not pleasing Mr, Eastman. The judges and 

 managers held that, as there was no regular class provided 

 for the Ruby spaniels, they would necessarily and properly 

 under the rules compete in the miscellaneous. Mr. Eastman, 

 not being permitted to have his own way, wouldn't play, and 

 took his dogs out of the ring, an act which didn't seem very 

 amiable or dignified or exemplary for the vice-president or 

 any one else to do.

Danbury Dog Show. 



[Special Seport] 



The dog show given last week by the Danbury Agri- 

 cultural Society in connection with their fair, was the 

 twelfth annual, and as American Kennel Club recognition 

 had been secured, it was of greater importance than usual. 

 For years past, the exhibition has been one of the most im- 

 portant of the fall fixtures, and though Providence with a 

 moi'e liberal premium list and Mr. Comstock's influence, 

 combined with a popular superintendent in John Read, out- 

 did it this year, still the wi.se policy of Mr. Geo. Sears 

 (manager of the deparment) in gaining A. K. C. recognition, 

 insured a good show. The best specimens from Pro'\adence 

 and about all the first class dogs from Mount' Holly came 

 on, so in point of quality it must have excelled the Canadian 

 events and it certainly maintained its position. 



To secure a circuit of such shows in the autumn in the 

 Eastern States is highly desirable, and though in many 

 eases the -vsdnnings cannot exceed expenses, exhibitors are 

 wdlling to do their share in view of the benefit to kennel 

 interests. From conversation with those present, it would 

 seem that the managers of such shows ought to understand 

 that on their part some system and adherance to the A.K.C. 

 rules are necessary, as well as competent judges, because of 

 the greater importance of the winnings, if not for other 

 reasons. If these matters are overlooked for any length of 

 time, there 'svill soon be many evils demanding remedies and 

 the American Kennel Club will soon have something more 

 tangible than the Western bogus cyclone calling for legis- 

 lative action. 



It must be clear to the Fair authorities that dog shows are 

 of far greater interest to those who visit such affairs than 

 any other similar attraction, and that in comparison poultry 

 shows are far in the rear. This was evident at Providence 

 and Danbury, for sometimes the dog shows were crowded 

 when the poultry only secured a meagre throng. There 

 were about 230 dogs on hand, which were fed on milk and 

 bread under Mr. Lewis Reed's superintendence, and as the 

 handlers present remedied the lack of attendants, by exercis- 

 ing many dogs that were not as well cared for as their own, 

 all went smoothly. Dr. J ames E. Hair judged the sporting 

 division and James Wataon took all other classes, and in 

 remarks on the awards it will be necessaiy to point out some 

 flagrant errors which may do harm to good specimens, or 

 make it ai)j)ear from wins at an A. K. C. show, tha.t the win- 

 ners are really worthy of such distinction, and thus bring 

 contempt upon records and reflect upon the policy of the 

 American Kennel Club. Dr. L. C. Knox carried out the 

 duties of veterinarian with his usual attention and skill, and 

 Mr. Geo. Sears did all in his power to make it a pleasant time 

 for exhibitors. Unfortunately, the catalogue was very im- 

 complete and full of errors, and the A. K. C. Secretary 

 should demand something diilerent in future. 



Mastiffs.— Challenge class, first prize went to Ethel, shown 

 in good condition, and as Kaiser William was the only other 

 specimen on exhibition he also secured a blue ribbon. These 

 dogs are of average merit. 



St. Bernards. — The country folk had never before wit- 

 nessed such a grand exhibit of these dogs as Mr. Fred 

 Schmidt had on hand, and it was at their benches that the 

 crowd gathered. Otos, first in the challenge class, has often 

 been described, and was shown in first class condition. 

 Roland, Jr., first in open dogs, was also looking well; he has 

 not lost any of his activity and beat Lord Walbeck, second, 

 in legs, action and shape of head. Pontift' II., vhc, is a dog 

 of substance, good in color and marks, but too long in 

 head and lacking stop. Milton, unnoticed, was worthy of 

 some attention, for though being orange tawny, which 

 looks black on the head, and therefore worthy of nothing but 

 condemnation in the judge's estimation, he is a sturdy, well- 

 proportioned dog, with character, agility and no very bad 

 point, and as Alton was his grandsire, and there have been 

 many fine St. Bernards of a dark tint, the judge's dread of 

 black was not well founded, and an injustice was done this 

 dog. In bitches a class was made for smooths, Guess Noble 

 taking the blue ribbon in this division, with size, bone and 

 character in her favor. Miss Wrinkles, second, is a white 

 with orange marks, without enough size in head, eyes rather 

 close together, and inferior to the winner in every respect. 

 In roughs El'Orv won. Lady Bountiful second; as the latter 

 has length, height, legs, skull, muzzle, stop and agility in 

 her favor we cannot see wherein a bitch like the one with the 



curious name, that is only superior In color, could be justly 

 placed before her, and it was quite interesting to hear the 

 way the judge tried to avoid explaining it to Mr. Schmidt 

 afterward. He had no reason, and it was a great mista,ke. 

 Of the pupsRollo, a son of Roland, Jr., seemed to have fewer 

 faults, and enough promise to have secured the blue, but he 

 went without notice, and first was gi\'en to Veragua. a light 

 orange, with eyes rather close, and a badly cai-ried tail. 

 Donna Maria coming second with lack of character and a 

 light body. 



Great Danes.— Bismark, a big dark dog of little charac- 

 ter and aptly described as a "veed" hy one of the Fatherland 

 present, won first. Shult Nero coming second, with some 

 little merit. In bitches, Emilie won over Shult Flora, both 

 being of but moderate worth. 



Newfoundlands were represented by Rex, a black dog of 

 medium size, fair head and good eye, and hence something 

 of a Newfoundland, and though firsts have been given at 

 larger shows for specimens with very little of the Newfound- 

 land in their composition, this dog only took second Mr. 

 Reed's Carlo, which the judge gave a prize to last year, was 

 not good enough this time, and another Carlo owned by Mr. 

 ■J. Walsh, of some little merit, was also sent out without a 

 letter. 



Greyhounds.— In the challenge class Pious Pembroke 

 was alone and was looking well. In open dogs the best dog 

 was again sent out of the ring without a letter; this is 

 Cheeky. He is a fawn of unusually grand outline and form, 

 his size is about right, he has a "good head, with capital 

 expression, which needs but better carried ears to place 

 beyond a fault, his neck is of good length, strong, set into a 

 good front, showing depth of chest, spring of ribs, oblique 

 shoulders, legs as straight as gun barrels and feet of good 

 shape, well padded, in loin he is well arched, well muscled, 

 in quarters he is also good and he has a well-bent stifle, with 

 plenty of muscle. In fact, he is a superb hound, such as one 

 rarely sees, and if a fault can be found it is in ears (but they 

 do not prevent adog reaching the game) and, perhaps, in the 

 muscles which unite the hindlegs with the loin, but it does 

 not seem to interfere with his action. Imper.'itor, first, is a 

 well-made dog throughout, but rather bitch-like in size and 

 other respects. Sir Launcelot, second, is the Gem of the 

 Sea.son — Lady Clare sapling that has been frequently at the 

 top. The others in this class were Baritone, vhc. , and a few 

 ordinary specimens, and little better were those in the bitch 

 and puppy classes. 



Wolfhound classes were made up of excellent speci- 

 mens sent from the Seacroft Kennels and were correctly 

 placed. Sowanets, the first dog, is a comparatively new dog; 

 he is white and dark orange in color, symmetrical, strong, 

 well muscled, good in depth of cheek, fair in spring of ribs, 

 better than usual in shoulders and legs, he has a powerful 

 neck, long strong head, with capital expression; in feather- 

 ing he is also good and is one of the best, if not the best, 

 specimens of the breed we have seen in America. Peter the 

 Great, second, though a noted winner, was far below his 

 excellent rival. In the bitch class Plodeyka won over 

 Obrouga, and is a better one in nearly every respect 



PoiNTEKS.— In challenge class Duke of Dexter met Launce- 

 lot and won the blue, Glenmorgan being the unfortunate in 

 such company. The open dog class brought forward for first 

 place Ptock II., which it was said had not been entered. I 

 Dare came second, with fair quality, and Perry third, of 

 hardly average merit. Dash A. and Royal Dan took vhc, 

 but hardly rank together. The open bitch class was much 

 better, but for some reason no third award was made. Wild 

 Eilly, the first prize winner, is a liver and white of a some- 

 what racy outline, without enough depth of chest, and 

 plenty of length to loin. Moderation, second, is a lemon and 

 white of the cobby order, of more than average merit 

 throughout, and whose chief fault seems to be a short neck. 

 Countess Vernon, reserve, was below these in most points, 

 and is a liver and white, with dash and style, but hardly 

 enough quality. Kathleen Kent, vhc, needs improvement 

 in pasterns. 



English Setters.— In the challenge class Daisy Foreman 

 was alone, and carries her years well. In open dogs the well- 

 known Giendon came first. He has improved somewhat in 

 loin, which is well muscled and arched, so it cannot be as 

 great a defect as some critics would have it appear. Garry, 

 second, is a dog of strong head, showing pronounced charac- 

 teristics, but in body and quarters he is not as good as Ben- 

 zine, reserve. Canadian Lockley, vhc, has seen better days, 

 and would certainly have been higher were it not for Aveak- 

 ness behind. In the corresponding bitch class Spectre came 

 first. She was looking fairly well, and is well known. Do- 

 retta, second, might be better in shoulders, and Nora Glad- 

 stone, third, is a bright, active belton, with good chest, loin 

 and quarters fair. Roi Di and Nellie Bondhu both got three 

 letters, but surelj; it was not difficult to see a fault in one 

 to make a distinction. In the puppy class Daphne was alone, 

 and is quite a promising youngster. 



Irish Setteks. — These classes contained some very excel- 

 lent specimens with champion Tim at the head of the chal- 

 lenge dogs. He was shown in excellent form, but there are 

 signs of age not only in his appearance but in his action. 

 Pride of Patsy, reserve, in this class needs a belter head to 

 be on an equality with the old champion. In the corre- 

 sponding bitch ciass champion Elfreda beat Blarney, Jr., 

 and the award needs no comment. In open dogs Mon tank, 

 ■Jr., took the blue, and in size, shape of head and general 

 conformotion beats Jim's Dandy, tile second prize winner, 

 he being more rangy perhaps, and certainly stands high 

 enough on his legs. Chiuchquin was given third, but as he 

 lacks chest development, and needs fitting up throughout, 

 as well as a more characteristic head, it is hard to find a 

 reason for an additional prize, and in the interest of the 

 show it may be wise to put such awards in the premium 

 list on future occasions, Clonmel, reserve, has good color 

 and coat, but is somewhat leggj;. Bantry, he, ii a coarse 

 one, and Gyp needs a general toning up for such company. 

 In the open bitch class first went to Coleraine, the English 

 field trial winner, and she deserved it, for she is a good 

 all-round bitch, more of the cobby than the rangy order, of 

 excellent color, capital legs and feet, ribs well sprung and 

 chest deep enough, quarters in proportion, and well muscled, 

 head of good shape, well moulded, and a true Irish setter 

 eye; if any fault can be spoken of as worthy of mention, 

 it is that she is light in bone, but her quality throughout 

 would seem to call for this tendency. Lady Cleveland was 

 second. She is a trifle light in color, and a plain one far 

 below Coleraine's standard. Mollie got the reserve and is 

 somewhat of the same order. Biddy, vhc, is also but mod- 

 erately good. 



Gordon Settees were from two kennels, Dr. Dixon's, 

 and a team from the Mont Kennel, and represented the 

 old type, and a modern Gordon built on more racy Lines, 

 and minus the lumber some critics have condemned in 

 this breed, The judge liked the ancient, so Dr. Dixon did 

 best, beating Brillmont — second to Ranger B. at Providence 

 —with Duke of Wellington and Homer S., but being de- 

 feated for second place in the bitch class by Fairmont, a 

 young bitch that has a score of four firsts already to her 

 credit. 



Spaniels.— Iri.sh water spaniels and Clumbers were not 

 provided for, and entries did not come in to secure classes. 

 Though field spaniels had three classes there were only two 

 entries, one dog that was sent out without notice and Dainty, 

 the bitch that secured first by default. In cockers the chal- 

 lenge class had Middy and Bambo, and the result was a win 

 for former, shown in excellent condition. In open dogs Bran- 

 forth Jet secured the blue, with front legs of the dachshund 

 order, favored by a few judges, condemned by a few, and yet 

 sufficiently near- the standai'd concocted for the club from 

 the field spaniel Beatrice to afEord an excuse for the award. 



Cloudy, Othello and .Jay Jay each got vhc, and yet if one is 

 right the others are wrong, according to the field spaniel- 

 cocker standard. In the bitch class Sliss Chip got the blue, 

 and as she has been spoken of so glowingly by those who 

 doubtless linow what is wanted for the woodcock haunts of 

 America, and have also correct ideas of the true cooker type 

 and the qualities required for ladies' pets, it would be folly 

 to more than hint that it is just as well to have it decided 

 what is really to be expected in the future, for to breed for all 

 those puriioses may be found a somewhat difficult undertak- 

 ing Woodstock Dora and Corktown Cleo both seem to 

 have had a struggle with this question in their puppyhood, 

 and as a result got a regulation dachshund twist in front, 

 thereby they avoid being taken a-shooting, and are nice and 

 small and so suitable for a lay's lap. Both of these took 

 equal second, j:)erha])s as field dogs, because their front legs 

 make them particularly adapted^ to paw the earth from the 

 furry vermin like the dachshund, or perhaps because they 

 are only somewhat less attractive thatjtue pet spaniel family, 

 certainly not because they could come out of a woodcock 

 haunt, if they got in, or could lift a bird from the ground in 

 retrieving it. 



Foxhounds were very mtich superior to those generally 

 exhibited, and the beagles were well represented by Doctor 

 and Snowflake, though not numerically strong. 



Fox-Terriers.— These classes were "well filled. Grouse IL 

 being alone in the challenge class. In the opeu dog class 

 Poverina secured the blue, but it is a mystery for what, for 

 he could do with a longer head, deeper chest, and there were 

 better terriers in the class besides the better bodied second 

 prize winner Arrandale Mixture; in Seacroft Bourbon c. , is a 

 good all around dog, fit to get vhc, if not higher, in the best 

 of company, when other things besides color are looked at, 

 he is rather too heavily marked with black, but color is but 

 ten points, and does not make the terrier. Venio, Jr., vhc, is 

 thick in head. Spot, he, has a rounded skull, and a poor 

 front, and Fire Tail, c, is well— just a little below the rank 

 of Bourbon that was placed equal, and has been referred to. 

 In fox-terrier bitches, Lady Rosebnry secured the blue: she 

 has a round skull. Trim, second, is light in bone, has*poor 

 ears and is not strong enogh below^ the eyes; hence if Seacroft 

 Myrtle, unnoticed, had come before the other two, she would 

 be where she wiD be if she meets them again under a terrier 

 judge, for she is a very promising youngster, with little that 

 can be found fault with. The pxips were placed, Seacroft 

 Rachel, flrst,_with full eyes and better head and body than 

 Seacroft Jessie, second, that has not yet filled out, Poverina 

 took a special for the best terrier in the show, but why, is a 

 mystery. 



Collies, — In the challenge class The Squire, looking well 

 for his years, scored another first. In the open dog class Cur- 

 zon got the blue, and Royal Monarch came next, giving way 

 because of Curzon's better head; in build the first is light and 

 the second is sturdy, and in coat the second has a slight ad- 

 vantage, though neither is good. Royalston Chief, vhc, has 

 good body and legs, but is thick in head. In the bitch class 

 Highland Floss won. She is a remarkably sweet bitch, with 

 a good head, capital body, legs, feet and coat. Had she a 

 more wideawake than sweet expression, and were the curve 

 out of the end of her tail, few of her breed could .surpass her, 

 and it is very douljtf ul whether she can find her equal in 

 America. Mattie, .second, is of quite a difl'eren b order, and to 

 compare them W'Ould be like comparing the fine lady wdth the 

 servant girl. 



Bull-Terriees.— Starlight had the challenge class to him- 

 self. In open dogs Cardona won. This is Frank Dole's latest 

 importation of Gully the Great get, and it is a flue dog, good 

 in head, body, and without any more conspicuous fault than 

 being a trifle close to the ground. Topsparkle, second, is 

 faulty in front and his feet are not good, besides he could do 

 with "more jaw, or rather it is a bulldog that has this dilated 

 upon, and it is more correct. Topsparkfecould be longer and 

 stronger in muzzle, and as Lord Blandford, he, is not weak 

 in either of these places, and Young Marquis, vhc , is also 

 right in these respects, we should have preferred either of 

 them for second place. The bitch class was divided by weight, 

 thus Kit and Edgewood Fancy II. had to fight for honors, 

 and Kit secured the blue rightly enough. There is not much 

 to choose between them in head, but is better on her feet, less 

 cloddy, stands higher from the ground, and is more bull- 

 terriei'like. She was hardly in the best condition in skin, and 

 Fancy had one of the pads of her foot cut, which may account 

 for some little awkwai'dness. In the light-weight bitches 

 Lady Rochester beat Pearl of Rochester; the latter has the 

 better body of the two, but she loses in head somewhat. 



Black akd T.VN TJ':hi;ii':i:s.— The black and tan terrier 

 classes were stronger Lhau usual, for in addition to the Ro- 

 chelle Kennels' team. Henry Bartow, a new e.xhibitor, had 

 some capital specimens on exhibition, and as they were placed 

 in order of merit, no remarks are required. 



There was but little provision and poor accommodation 

 for pet dogs, yet some very good specimens were on hand. 

 In Yorkshire terriers Mr. Heni-y Bartow, the new exhibitor, 

 had some capital specimens, and with Phebe, a very promis- 

 ing pup, won first in open as well as puppy class, and in 

 Ursula, second in pups, has a sure winner. The pug classes 

 were quite showy, Bob Ivy and Midget coming in this order 

 in the challenge class, and Attraction and Treasurer being 

 correctly placed in open dogs, but Penrin Boy scarcely got 

 all he deserved in c. In the bitch class it was quite a clo.se 

 thing between Bess and Lady Bonsor. 



ITALIAK GjtKniouNDS.- It was to be expected that if the 

 judge made so glaring an error in English greyhounds he 

 would be at fault in the pet order of the graceful and sym- 

 metrical, and such was the case, and it was .such a curiously 

 mixed up judging that it will be best to take each dog in 

 order, and afterwards give ideas of how it would have pleased 

 us to see them placed. Vito, first, is a dull fawn, not good in 

 ai'ch of loin and shape of hindquarters, therefore not of ex- 

 cellent symmetry, moderately good in head and othei' re- 

 spects. Polly, second, is a rich, dark fawn, the best for color 

 in the class; "in symmetry she was almost perfect, in size the 

 best in the show, being smaller than the rest, and in chest 

 and arch of loin distinctly beat Vito, Flossie S,, the vhc. 

 dog, is a little apple-headed specimen, without any points 

 worthy of much praise. Trinkets, he, was the lai-gest 

 of the class, had white on the breas-t, and was scarcely 

 an average specimen, Souries, also he, was good in color, 

 symmetry, size, and hfis a fairly good head, and should have 

 come second to FoUy, with Vito thu-d, Flossie S. next and 

 Trinkets last. 



The King Charles spaniels were Royal Roy, the well 

 known winner, and Twinkle, a bitch with some very good 

 points, and they were placed in this order. 



Schipperkes were fair and dachshunds much below those 

 seen of late at our shoAvs.
