FOREST AND STREAM. 



866 



lass (8) several well known faces appeared; nothing could 

 touch the sweet beaded TopsyS., she is nice type through- 

 out and sturdy withal. Maida, second, occupied the same 

 position last year; not quite true at elbows, but a nice all 

 round bitch with a good head. Lady of Denmark, third, is 

 too much out before the eye, nice skull and ear, more rib 

 would improve her body. Diamond Krueger, reserve; her 

 too prominent eye and brow detract from an otherwise good 

 head, well built behind that. Glenrose Topsy was harshly 

 treated; she deserved something. In puppy dogs (6) first 

 went to Zeno, long cast yet, fair head and ear. Silverena, 

 second, and Richard I., reserve, too long in bead and body. 

 In bitches (6) Cloister, the winning New York puppy, scored 

 for his owner at last. Speed Forest, an appropriate name to 

 be sure, has little type. Daisy S., reserve, is flat iu back, 

 but has plenty of substance, head too long. In the held trial 

 class Lee II., Gypsey and Gypsey Forest was the order. 



Dachshunds. 



John Davidson, Judge. 

 Don Quixote, well shown, supplied the challenge winner. 

 In open dogs (6) Pretzel, a sou of Jay and Sister, scored 

 nicely, though he se«med weak in pasterns and feet, nice 

 clean long head, and fair length of body. Zigzag, second, 

 has good ears and rather good head, though too prominent 

 iueye; loose skin, fair bone and muscle behind. Grief II., 

 vhc, good length, nice chest and crook, elbows throw out a 

 little. Bismarck, he, has around full skull, with too pro- 

 nounced a stop, and not well crooked, chest should be 

 aeeper. Polly Finders, scored once more in a hot class, and 

 afterward won the Manice Dachshund cup. Lovely K. 

 must have pressed her close, a sweet-headed bitch, losing a 

 little to the other in length, with good skin, length of ear, 

 body and crook; both were well shown. Jane Shore, reserve, 

 nice che-t and crook, long body and loose skin, head bit 

 plain. Daughter well deserved her vhc. card, as her head is 

 good, shows lots of quality, chest well let down, and good 

 length of body; she must have pressed Jane Shore very 

 closely. Frou, vhc, is not so good, deficient in crook, too 

 pronounced in stop, and muzzle should be longer; he. in 

 this class would have been enough. Daisy B., he, is too full 

 in skull and eye. 



Bassets. 



John Davidson, Judge. 

 Only two were on hand, the winner, Bey, beats the other, 

 Turk, very much in front, depth of chest, and make and 

 shape of head, the winner was shown light in flesh, good 

 earage. Turk is too high and straight on legs. 



Collies. 



Tlios. H Terry, Judge. 

 But for the Specialty show, no doubt there would have 

 been a much better entry out of compliment to this well 

 known and popular fancier; as it was, quality and numbers 

 were not what they should be. There were no challenge 

 dogs and the bitch contained but one, Highland Floss, who 

 was out of coat. In open dogs, first went to one of Mr. Jar- 

 rett's Saratoga purchases, Douglas, a sturdily built active 

 looking dog with good sensible head, ears a bit heavy but 

 well carried, coat dense and nice texture; he had quite a 

 good time among the specials. Trump, second, has a rather 

 long head and thick coat, ears down hung; the others were 

 coarse headed and need no mention. In bitches (7), first 

 went to Gilderoy 's Daisy, who has too prominent a stop, but 

 fairly correct expression, head should be longer and ears 

 carried not close to head, but semi erect and outward from 

 the head. Lady Royal, second, has big ears, fair head, was 

 out of coat. The class was poor; Douglas won in dog puppies 

 and Ruby Proctor in the corresponding class; big down 

 carried ears, fair head, dense coat but soft. Maybrook 

 Pansy, second, ears faulty, but better head than the winner 

 and much better coat and bone, a sister of the dog pup winner. 



Poodles. 



James Mortimer, Judge. 

 One of the largest entries we ever remember seeing, and 

 quality was very strong. Milo beat Diamant in challenge 

 curlies; both were well shown and Chloe won the corre- 

 sponding prize; shown in excellent curl. Duke, the Phila- 

 delphia winner, was the only corded one in the show. In 

 open dogs Sidi won once more, looking none the worse for 

 his travels. Second went to Ithel, a very good curled one, 

 beaten in head by the winner. Girofle, reserve, was looking 

 in better shape. Zola took vhc, faulty in curl and muzzle. 

 In black bitches Bess won again, followed by Snowball and 

 Girofia, who reversed their Philadelphia positions. Both 

 fail to the winner in muzzle and curl, Girofia especially. 

 Cybelle, vhc , is well known and so is the youngster Juno. The 

 Meadowmere Kennels, as usual, made a most creditable dis- 

 play. In any other color curlies Poobah was the winner, 

 beating Hill Hurst Taffy in body and head; should be better 

 in curl. Plon Plon is too long in coat. In bitches (4) Vivette 

 and Bellone were the winners, followed by Hill Hurst Dinah, 

 a daughter of Bellone's, faulty in muzzle and down behind. 

 Zola took the dog puppy prize for blacks and Juno and 

 Triga were the corresponding winners. In any other color 

 Targo won, good curl and nice head, a little faulty behind. 

 Hill Hurst Taffy and Nap have been commented on. Hill 

 Hurst Dinah and Posey won in bitches; both have been 

 spoken of before. Hill Hurst Kennels' display of browns 

 was quite an attraction, as pleasing as it is rare. 



Bulldogs. 



John E. Thayer, Judge. 

 This popular fancier was well supported on his second 

 appearance, and the Boston terriers claimed no attention 

 from the Bulldog Club this time, and all was serene. In 

 challenge dogs King Lud, Wal Hampton and Leonidas were 

 the entries, and the former won handily. He was put down 

 in good shape. In bitches (3) Saleni had little difficulty in 

 taking the blue from Dolly Tester, scoring considerable in 

 head; both were very fit. In open heavy-weight dogs (3) 

 Rustic Sovereign, who should be better out in front, claimed 

 the blue from Dr. Rush, a rather coarse-headed one, straight 

 in front, great skull and muzzle, but not deep enough n 

 stop. Crown Prince vhc, is down-eared, plain long body, 

 and not out at shoulder, fine head. In the next class Katisha, 

 a bit light in muzzle, good skull and ear, not out enough in 

 shoulder, scored over Lady Nan, plain in head. Nadjy, third, 

 fair muzzle and skull, but not broken up enough, front pass- 

 able. In light-weight dogs (6) Heathen, a rather coarse dog all 

 through, won from the well-known African Monarch, beat- 

 ing in make and shape of head; the latter is better at shoul- 

 der. Heathen II. has a fox-terrier ear, fair head, fairly well 

 out at shoulder, but crooked forelegs. Rustic King II. is 

 making up nicely. Ned, he, was decidedly lucky, a frog- 

 faced bull-terrier; Jack Horner, is plain in head. In bitches 

 (3) first went to Juno, nicely shown, ears not so good as they 

 were. Cromer's Vic, second, I did not see. Rustic King II. 

 won in puppies (5). 



Bull-Terriers. 



T. S. BelUn, Judge. 

 Some of the classes were well filled and there was quite a 

 good deal of quality on hand, but many of the winners do 

 not need comment. In challenge dogs (4) Cordona had an 

 tasy win, as just before the judging, owing to carelessness 

 on the part of the attendants, Streathani Monarch and he 

 got together, and Monarch came out with a badly bitten 

 foreleg, so, of course, could do little in the ring. Cordona 

 was in excellent shape; Carney is getting cheeky, nicely 

 shown, and Sir Rudolph is not up to this quality. In bitches 



competition was keen. Attraction, Edgewood Fancy, Grove 

 Duchess and Lady Dinah facing the judge. Dinah won, 

 though beaten in eye and body and head by Attraction; she 

 had a suspiciously fine tail and was afterward disqualified 

 on protest— the judge should have detected this. Edgewood 

 Fancy did not show herself; getting thick in neck. In open 

 heavy dogs (3) Topsparkle won nicely from Prince III., a bit 

 fine in muzzle and cheeky, good legs and body. Harbone 

 King, third, is full in eye and flat in loin. In bitches (3) 

 Lady Carrabrook, the winner, looked fat; she was second at 

 New York. Castle's Pride, second, is well known; good ear 

 aud too much stop. Marjoram seemed in whelp, is heavy 

 in shoulders, a bit slack in back. 



In light weight dogs (5) Rookery Boy, well known, scored, 

 followed by Billy Plimmer, pinched in muzzle, shown fat, 

 cheeky, good body and legs. Jack of Clubs, third, is a bit 

 out in front. Sir Rudolph was transferred to challenge. 

 Lady Rochester won neatly iu bitches from Jeanne D'Arc, 

 commented on before. White Queen, third, is cheeky, round 

 in skull, good body and front. Mermaid is all off now. 

 Jack Frost and young Miss Giddy were the puppy winners; 

 the winner has a coarse head, good legs and feet. 



Boston Terriers. 



John P. Barnard, Judge, 

 The turnout here iu this breed is peculiar and inseparable 

 with Boston now, and we must say that the efforts of the 

 Boston Terrier Club to secure more uniformity of type, is 

 meeting with unqualified success. There was a big differ- 

 ence in this respect since 1892. Heads are getting flatter and 

 muzzles squarer, and there is not so much of the bulldog 

 front as seen then. In dogs over 201bs. Prince Walnut, the 

 New York winner scored again; somebody remarked with 

 all earnestness, etc., that the sire of this dog was a fox-terrier 

 and his mother a bull bitch. This shows that there is con- 

 siderable feeling in Boston terrier circles. Jem Mace, second, 

 is a bit bully in shoulders, good flat skull. Ross, third, has 

 a rather pointed muzzle, good skull and front. Sir William, 

 reserve, has rather a nice head and fair front, well ribbed. 

 The others were just ordinary. In bitches (8), first to Nan- 

 kin as at N. Y., and second to Diana, fairly good front and 

 head. Peggy, third, is another nice headed one with straight 

 front. Miss Thora, reserve, is heavy in shoulders and not 

 true in front, nice head. Nellie, he, was too fat. Famous, 

 c, was the winner in 1893, too bully. In light weight dogs 

 (4), Dandy, the winner, beats Commissioner in flatness of 

 skull. Dixie, third, was at New York. In bitches (10), 

 Evadne scored nicely, though a bit scooped out before the eye, 

 second going to Tansy, who has been described before. 

 Bessie third , is a nice headed one, fair front. Judy, reserve, is a 

 bit too full in skull. Dolly was left this time. Some fair 

 pups were shown. 



Fox-Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 



Quite a good collection, with the Thayer, Rutherford, 

 Smith and Hill Hurst kennels out in force. In smooth chal- 

 lenge dogs Starden's King, looking well, scored without com- 

 petition, Dusky Trap being absent. In bitches Warren Cap- 

 tious's victorious career was stopped for once by Miss Dollar 

 and Dona, though the latter loses in muzzle to Captious, and 

 also coat; all were in excellent form. In open dogs (13) War- 

 ren Safeguard added another win to his score; he keeps in 

 good form. Second went to Bevervvyck Royalist, the New 

 York puppy; Warren Tip Top, not so clean in front and skull, 

 coming next. Reserve went to Arrondale Mixture. Kenny- 

 ettePunch,vhe, abitcoarse inskulland short in muzzle, good 

 bone, Hillside Domo, vhc, was second at New York. Roch- 

 dale Spark's ears should be carried closer, looked heavy in 

 front and fat, nice head. Hillside Royal is too full and 

 high in skull and light in loin; fair bone and front. Seacroft 

 Avenger I did not see. In bitches (o) Warren Beauty won, 

 though the class was poor comparatively. The winner is 

 not good iu head, too much stop aud.weak muzzle, soft coat, 

 nice ears and legs. Seacroft Empress, second, nice ears, well 

 carried, good length of head, good front, eye and shoulders, 

 might have been first. Bevervvyck Twilight has been out 

 before, and so has B. Moonbeam. A smart terrier, Warren 

 Tony won in dog pups (7), with the well known puppy Seacroft 

 King second and Tim third. Many of these went home the 

 first night. Hill Hurst Diana, a real smart little one won in 

 bitches (6), good bone and coat. Seacroft Snipe is well 

 named, pinched and fine in muzzle. Hillside Lena third. 



A nice lot of the coming fancy — wires — was on hand. Oak- 

 leigh Bruiser had a bloodless victory in challenge dogs; he 

 was well put down, and so was the handsome Sister Pattern 

 in her class. Open dogs saw St. Cribbage an easy winner. 

 Brittle, scarcely looking as lusty as at New York, came sec- 

 ond, and Brittle Beaut, that has been sticking to it well this 

 season, came next, beating his friend Mister Great Snap in 

 condition and body. In bitches (3), Sister Janet scored easily 

 over Hillhurst Pansy, so much longer and stronger in head; 

 the latter has good ears, fair front, coat and body. Rose, 

 from the same kennel, is big in ear, but has a nice long head; 

 better than second's but is a bit wide in front; fair coat. 

 Brittle Beaut and Mister Great Snap were the puppy dog (7) 

 winners, followed by Hillhurst Piper; good legs and bone, 

 but soft in coat and round in skull yet, ears big. A good 

 little sort won in bitch puppies (5); excellent coat, fairly good 

 head, needs time, front will improve probably. Mistress 

 Betsy, second, loses in substance to the others. 



The Danme Dinmonts were all from Mr. Ed. Brooks, the 

 president's, kennels, but not for competition; he believing, 

 with a good many others, that the principal officers of a club 

 should not exhibit at their own shows. 



Bedlingtons. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 Mt. Vernon Tibbie won again over Professor, beating in 

 substance, head and coat. Ted, vhc, is not up to form by 

 any means. 



Scotch Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 Never has there been such a display of Scotch terriers in 

 this country, audit is questionable if a more sorty lot could 

 be shown anywhere than those put down by Messrs. Brooks 

 & Ames. The challenge class saw Kilroy take the blue, his 

 kennel companions Tiree, Rhuduman and Culblean, com- 

 peting for specials only. They all looked in good fettle. In 

 open dogs (8) Kilcree won, followed by Wankie Tarn, both 

 well known. Wankie Caddie is a new home bred one, a lit- 

 tle out in front at present, splendid head, ears a trifle large; 

 a very promising sort. Wankie Masher is a little coarse in 

 head, nice otherwise. Wankie Ted is another nice one, hardly 

 so good in head as Caddie. Claverhouse, vhc, is coarse in 

 skull and a little long in body. In bitches (5), Wankie Diana, 

 Vorda and Wankie Freda was the order. Vorda is the dam 

 of the good puppies shown; a little long cast and short of 

 coat, excellent straight front, an exception. Wankie Freda 

 is a nice-headed one, not so strong in muzzle as some. Wan 

 kie Daisy is well known. Rosie, also vhc, is snipy in muz- 

 zle but excellent coat and fair front. Wankie Tarn and Wan- 

 kie Caddie and Wankie Ted, followed by Wankie Masher and 

 Pedler, was the order in American bred dogs, and made a 

 warm team of youngsters. Gypsey John, also vhc, is short 

 in muzzle, good front, Tn the corresponding bitch class 

 Wankie Diana and Freda were the winners, followed by 

 Wankie Cambria, whose nice front and good, strong head 

 offset a rather lengthy body. Hazlecroft Norma, first at 

 Providence, 1893, came next, with the rather short-faced 

 Wankie Gerda next, he The puppy winners were a repeti- 

 tion of other classes. Newcastle Allen, third in dogs, has a 

 fairly good head, while Woodside Charlie is a bit coarse in 



head, though well shaped, and big in ear. The classes were 

 well handled. 



Irish Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 Boxer IV. and Crib were the challenge dogs; Crib's front 

 knocks him out, he is equal in other parts. In bitches, 

 Candor beat Dunmurray, the former is a little better in stop, 

 but not so good in skull. In open dogs (7), Merle Grady 

 scored again, followed by His Honor, another well known 

 face, both well shown. Jack Desmond has filled out into a 

 fairish dog, good head and ear, a little full in eye and soft in 

 coat. Hanover Boy got only e; his head is against him, but 

 he should have had more; the others are not deserving of he 

 if he is not. Timothy is too heavy in shoulders and has too 

 much stop. Memento is too big, fair head, big ears and soft 

 coat. Blue Ribbon, vhc. , was lucky and so was Fritz. In 

 bitches, Crate was closely pressed by Romp, a capital headed 

 one; Crate beating only in body, substance and coat. Hill 

 Top Surprise, well known, was third; Mr. Brooks two were 

 N.F.C. In puppy dogs, Shamus is a promising sort. Romp 

 scored easily from a fair class in bitches; this bitch will make 

 a name for herself if she goes on all right. Hill Top Fly has 

 a capital head and is a good sort all round. 



Black and Tan Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 



Broomfield Sultan won, in Glenwood's absence, without a 

 struggle. He is in better shape now. Meersbrook Maiden 

 succumbed to Gypsey Girl, who is having a lucky time of it 

 this circuit; both were well shown. Rochelle Rush, thi-ough 

 Perfection's non-appearance, he having joined other good 

 terriers that have gone before, had a bloodless victory. In 

 bitches (2) the coarse-headed Lady Prudence beat a toyish 

 specimen in Lilla. 



Skye Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 The entries here — Endcliffe Maggie and Barnaby Rudge in 

 challenge class, and Islay and Prairie Flower in open bitcnes, 

 are all well known and recently described. 



Yorkshire Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 No challenge entries. In open dogs first went to Tatters, 

 mixed in color, and large-sized. Teddy, first last year, was 

 second, and Jocko, the silver, reserve. The bitch entry was 

 absent. 



Schipperkes. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 Mickie, first, is better in frill than Cople Sophia, a well- 

 known winner. Skipper, third, too smooth around shoulders 

 and neck. 



Toy Terriers. 



T. S. Bellin, Judge. 

 There was nothing in the dog class here to call for particu- 

 lar mention; the usual goggle-eyed sort. In bitches two 

 smart little bull-terriers were shown. 



Pugs. 



James Mortimer, Judge. 

 Many of them have been seen this circuit. Bob Ivy scored 

 in Robin Hood's absence, and Haughty Madge took her first 

 challenge prize wishout turning a hair. In open dogs Drum- 

 mer, in spite of a bent foreleg, was placed over Finsbury 

 Duke, who excels him in color and front. Pomona Fritz, 

 third, loses in skull and muzzle and curl. Ivy Boy I pre- 

 ferred for place, though a bit leggy. Bob-a-la-Bob, vhc, has 

 nice ears, head and body, but',is not good in front. In bitches 

 (5) first went to the smart little bitch Pansy G., Miss Decima 

 coming second, and Otterburn Pearl, light in body, but 

 fairish head, third. Pet, shown too fat, as usual, could not 

 get her ears close enough, nice head and wrinkle. No pup- 

 pies. 



Toy Spaniels. 



James Mortimer, Judge. 



King of the Charlies was absent in challenge dogs. Royal 

 Roy scored decisively in skull and muzzle over Romeo, who 

 was not in the best of shape. Cockney Charlie, with his 

 curly t:oat, could expect no more than vhc. Bitches had 

 three entries. First to Dora, whose good skull and muzzle 

 and coat could not be denied. Titania, second, excellent 

 ear, coat and in head fair, skull the best part. 



In Blenheims the new one Chiselhurst Hero, still gross 

 looking and very curly, was alone in open dogs, while first 

 was withheld from Daisy in the next class; a rather poor 

 headed one, too long faced and stop not deep enough. 



A very fair Ruby in Rubin was shown in open dogs, face 

 a little long, good body, legs and coat. In bitches Princess 

 Nevia scores over Rena in muzzle, volume of skull and coat. 



The "Jap" Tootsie was absent and Oota represented the 

 breed; he is leggy, but has an excellent skull, muzzle should 

 be shorter, and is light in body. 



Italian Greyhounds. 



James Mortimer, Judge. 



Spright and Spring won again in order named, while 

 Brownie took third; I could not find her. Nikoli, vhc, is a 

 well made one, set back on account of color no doubt, blue 

 and white, ears not correctly carried. 



Dalmatians, only one and prize withheld from it; spots 

 not clear enough. 



Miscellaneous. 



John Davidson, Judge. 

 In heavy weights Blue Belle, the smooth collie, scored; then 

 Aleck and Pau, Esquimos, came second and reserve. In the 

 light weights the money was equally divided between Dewr 

 the Welshman and Too Too— a Chinese chow-chow. 



H. W. Lacy.
