The Dog show.
The last three days Of the Exposition will
be more interesting that the first. We are
inclined TO smile when We think Of dog
show, but when similar exhibitions have beer
held the interest has been simply immense
This department will be under the manage
ment Of the Louisville Gun Club, who offer
list Of special premiums, besides such induce
ments offered BY the gun merchants in thi
and other cities, as will attract the best dog
and most noted kennels from all parts Of thu
United States, and will draw Thousands o
people to the city who would not come other
wise. The gentlemen who are conducting
this show are doing II from public spirit ant
not for pecuniary benefit to themselves. Mr.
L. w. Noel. general manager, will send par
ticulars TO all who desire them and address
him ct Louisville, Ky.
Now, don't laugh at the idea of dog shsw
but wait till you see these Intellectual snimall
and you will be convinced that the people Of
this country take rs much interest in dogs
that is dogs Of respectability they do in
other useful animals s. L. K.
