CANINE ARISTOCRATS.
Second Day Of the Grand International
Bench Show
Incidents of thc Exhibition and Full
List OF the Prizes Awarded Yesterday.

Notwithstanding the incloment weather
there were throngs of visitors at Masonic
temple yesterday to inspect the dogs exhib-
tied at the second international bench show.
A feature of the programme last evening was
the parade of the prize dogs in the judges
room at 8 30 o'clock, when there was grouped
upon mo sawdust an array of the crack ca
mines of the country. 1t is curious to see the
d fferont tastes manifested by the ladies. The
younger and more dashing of tho fair sex
dotc on the settlers, and it was
a pleasing spectacle to see how these intolli-
gent animals warmed up as their long SILKY
ears were caressed by fairy fingers. One
handsome West Washington belle completely
captivated Dismer's big Newfoundland, Ma.
ior and when she moved away from his kennel
the huge brute expressed his sorrow in
succession Of dismer.l howls that were in
dicative of the deepest woe The middle
aged ladies and dowagers appear to prefer
the day the stage which is SGT
apart for the kennels of these darlings, were
crowded with the owners and admirers of
these darlngs. One lady has a lap.dog that
she evidently prizes very highly. This net
is wheeled down in q miniature baby car
riuge, and during the evening IL reposed in
this vehicle upon handsome pillow, covered
that the dogs now make far less noise than
upon the opening day. They appear to grow
moro accustomed to their novel surroundings
and have begun to cultivate the acquaintance
of the occupants of adjoining kennels. 1t Is
generally admitted that the exhibition in
cludes q larger and finer collection Of game
dogs than has over been brought together in
this country before. The following is full
