too we'll known to require comment She has taken more prizes than any other bitch of the breed. She is the champion mastiff brood bitch, and her pups. Juan, Hebe and Beau Monterey have equaled her winning abil1- ties. The last named won everything at San Jose last month except the prize for the best mastiff, which fell to his dam, Lola.
 The hour for the closing of the en- tries to the San Francisco bench show is near After midnight of to-day no entries will be accepted unless the postmark shows that they were mailed before that hour. Delay will be fatal. The rule will be rigidly enforced.
 No pedigree Is required to show dog The moment that the animal en- ters the ring and stands before the judge his own merits alone will con- duce to his becoming prize winner; his ancestry will cut no figure. Better a good dog without a pedigree than poor dog with one.
 The office of the San Francisco Ken nel Club at PA Montgomery street will be open all day until midnight, and MT. Sinclair will be on hand to receive the entries.
 Up to date the number of entries re- ceived exceeds that of last year, and if the present rate continues the total will be largely in excess of even that record breaker.
 All is now harmonious in the kennel world. and every fancier of the noble dog seems to be striving hard to make this show grand success.
 Walter Hobart's kennel of English foxhounds will again be feature of the show this year.
