A FOX F.. TERRIER SURPRISE

Judge Mortimer COMPLETED his task of
judging the dogs on exhibition at the Pa
vilion yesterday, and now the winners are
happy ana the losers naturally sad.
The dogs, of course, show no signs of re-
gret or happiness; thier only cry is for
home, sweet home.
During yesterdays proceedings two of
the bull terriers got into an alteration
while in the ring-a most appropriate
place to decide a dispute-and one of the
belligerents suffered the loss of an ear,
which was chewed off in the twinkling of
an eye.
The owner of the dog that suffered was
chagrined because the handler of the white
"pugilist'' that drew first blood should not
have used better Judgment and kept his
charge under control.
The little fox terriers growled savagely
at each other, but there we're no fights and
consequently no trouble.
The victory that j. B. Martin achieved
over DR.. W. D. Evelyn in receiving blue
ribbon for exhibiting the best fox terrier
in the "open" dog class caused no end of
talk among the fanciers. 1t will be re-
mem bered by sportsmen that DR.. d. Eve
lyn imported some time ago Dudley
Stroller, dog with great pedigree and
winner of many prizes in the East and
West. The fancy expected to see
laurels of victory, but their surprise was
great when Judge Mortimer handed the
blue ribbon to the handler Of Golden
Flash, q home dog. Flash was whelped
on March 15, 1895; sire, Blemton Refer,
dam Blemton Spinaway. The judge said
af% had anff hn Vi, fha%
Golden Flash was as fine specimen of the
fox terrier as he had ever seen, and that
he would be delighted to own him.
Among the st. Bernard men the topic of
conversation was relative to Grand
Master, whose pictures and winnings ap-
peared in Saturdays CALL. This grand
specimen of the st. Bernard won first
prize over large field of competitors,
much to the surprise of some people who
are supposed to know something about st.
Bernards. Judge Mortimer said there
should be no difficulty in deciding the
question of which of the dogs on exhibit
lien was entitled to the blue ribbon.
Grand Master he unhesitatingly pro-
nounced q high-class dog, whose owner
need not feel the least abashed in pitting
him against the best stock in America.
The Grlffons had no competitors. Very
few people knew what class of dog they
represented. Some thought that they
were new breed of Highland terriers,
while others pronounced them crosses be-
tween the wolf hound and the French
poodle. The judge, however, said that
| they were real Griffons, and..every body lei
it go at that. They are used by French
/ sportsmen for all-round hunting. They
are owned by Billy Kittle OF the Country
Club, who intends to shoot snipe over
them next winter.
