Spring street. 1t was the opening night
Of the third annual bench show of the
Southern California Kennel club. So
ciety turned out in goodly numbers to
inspect and pat on the head the aristo-
Gratis grouped in the artistically deco
rated kennels. The officers OF the asso-
citation were jubilant over the success Of
the opening day. The attendance was
first-class, a large delegation Of the fair
sex lending eclat to the occasion. Even
John Davidson expressed surprise at the
good attendance. Mr.. Davidson is the
gentleman who has come here from
Michigan to judge the show. He is
probably the most famous judge in the
country. Mr.. Davidson began judging
bench shows in 1876, and he has been
kept in harness ever since. He
judged the first show ever held in
Chicago and New York. In addition to
being noted Judge of dogs, Mr.. David
son is one of the best posted horsemen
in the country.
