The Southern California Kennel club,
under whose auspices the show will be
held. has just issued it's premium lists
for its sixth annual show, which will be
held in Los Angeles on April 18th, 10Th,
goth and 2lst, in Music hall, next to the
Los Angeles theater, on Spring street.
From all appearances this event will
be one OF unusual interest, from the fact
that no other club but the Southern
California Kennel club has had the sand
to hold a show this year. First the Pa
cifc club, with nearly $1,000 in the treas
ury butno grit, gave up without a strug.
gle next the Columbia club, in Port.
land, quit; so the Los Angeles men
braced themselves together and deter
mined to have the show and stand
alone, whether deserted or not.
The matter of Judging, consequently,
was a serious item. In other years the
several clubs have joined together, and
so saved expenses in getting judge
from the east or, as last year, from Engt
land, but this time all the expense has
had to 90 borne by one. There is little
doubt, however, that those selected will
give satisfaction, and the true dog men
will be only too glad TO help out o show
that will be held under so many ad-

The mastiffs will be unusually strong.
Dick Gird will send some five specimens.
Then Bishop will be on hand, and Nc
NaD's Ingleside Grown Prince, although
poor fellow, no longer able to come him
self, will have some puppies in, which
are veritabe chips of the old block.
Great Danes, usually such poor lot OF
scrubs on this coast, will surprise the
public. The writer came across a new
bitch from British Columbia few days
ago that has fine litter, and Borglum,
the Great Dane King, has some beauties.
st. Bernards will have to be represented
by dogs from the north, as there is not
much here. Pointers. settlers, Collies
greyhounds and spsniels will show up
in strong force, while the fox terriers,
as usual, will be q small army OF them
selves. Mitchell has some new dogs,
Lord Veni by Venio, among others.
This dog has never been shown, and so
will make his debut hero. Lomita Patch
will be on hand. Sumner has nothing
but couple of puppies; Old Volun.

G. l.. Wsring has kindly consented to
Judge the terriers. and the terrier men
are satisfied to leave their fate to his
hands. Mr.. Waring, by the way, was
an old terrier judge in England before
he came to Southern California, but his
