THE KENNEL

The price at which DR.. W. G.. Kendall
of Boston recently sold the noted blue
ribbon terrier Squanto to a prominent
Philadelphia lawyer was $4,000. Larger
prices have been paid for imported dogs,
but Squanto's price Is said to be the
greatest ever received for a dog Of
American breeding. Squanto is about
~ years old. He won first prize as
puppy and first novice prize at the Bos
ton show in 1896. Later he was placed
first in the Mineola show, and this year,
at the New York exhibition. he captured
first prize in the largest class ever ex-
hibited. Squanto is light brindle in
color, handsomely licked. He has an
even blaze and collar. with a soft coat,
sealskin-like in texture. His eyes are
very large and expressive and as round
as a silver dollar. His tail is Of the cor
rect variety, having two twists in less
than two inches Of length. AS to body
feet and legs, he has all the points de-
manded by the standard.

Dr. Walter Graves, while driving over
his ranch outside Of Lathrop, San Joa-

that seldom occurs. The doctors fox
terrier was following the buggy when
a large hawk swooped down upon the
dog and fastened his talons into it's back,
but the dog caught the hawk by the
thigh and fought it until it released its
hold. Then the dog. by rare exhibition
of gameness and pluck, killed the hawk
It measured five feet ten inches from
tip to tip Of wings, and was as large
as turkey. The dog was badly cut up.
