Field Trials of Brunswick Fur
NLth

I NIP w. mOeu INTO prominence as oil
owner of finely bred hounds.
The American Field cup, offered for
the dog having the highest general
average, hunting, trailing, speed and
driving, endurance and tongueing be-
ing considered, was awarded to Mrs
Edna NJ. Canpte1l's Breeze, which was
handled by L. M. Campbell Of
WoonSocket
Philip w. Moen of Worcester won the
Pope Memorial cup, to be held for one
year, FOR James splendid work. A
smaller silver cup, the first award in
hunting, was also granted Jane. In
every class, the decision of the judges
was unquestioned, and although Breeze
is winner for the second consecutive
year, there is no dissatisfaction. Breeze
clearly earned the honors heaped upon
him. General excellence as a fox
hunter is stamped all over the gamey
fellow. In each of the trials Breeze
, was conspicuous.
On basis of so for first, 80 for sec
ond and 20 for a third, which is the
scoring system in use by the club,
Breeze scored 100 points, being first
N two Of the five classes and second
N two others. Breeze is owned by
Mrs. Edna M. Campbell Of Woonsocket,
wife of L. M. Campbell, who has acted
| as master of the hunts during the
| trials. Breeze is well built and clever
beyond conception. Careful handling
was shown IN Breeze's performances
! of the past few days For nearly two
months Mr.. Campbell had prepared the
dog for the Brunswick Clubs trials,
in anticipation of a keen contest for
honors. But Breeze won again and no
one disputes his claim to honors.
Of tho five nj IN NH 10
! hounds were considered by the judges,
! Breeze averaged splendidly In hunt
ing he was second to Jane. In speed
and driving Breeze was first. Breeze
won a second for endurance, and was
1 also in the position of honor when
tongueing was under consideration.
| Breeze was originally owned by C. L.
Parker now of Worcester Today Mr..
Parker was in town awaiting the YER
dict of the judges, and when it was an
nounced that the magnificent animal
had again been recognized as the
hound of hounds, he congratulated Mr..
/ Campbell. Breeze is three and one-half
years old and black, white and tan in
/ color. His sire is jeff and dam, Fan;
strain, Goodman native. Breeze will
| be entered for the National Fox Hunt
! ing Association trials Nov. 10, at Estill
Springs, near Irvine, KY. Last year at

! The work of Jane. one of Mr. Moens
entries was a source of satisfaction
to all who watched the clever bitch in
| the runs. Jane scored 100 points Will
| liam Hair, gamekeeper for Philip w.
Moen at Ard ma Clachan, Shrewsbury,
experienced disappointment because of
Rings condition. Ring is considered
every bit as valuable as Jane, but the

softness, and the dogs feet were in
fearful shape after the first days run.
The pair had been out Of the kennels
but a few times in the past two
months. Mr. Hair believes that Ring
under good care will develop into
sure winner. Ring and Jane are beau
tifully- shaped dogs, the heads of each
being, models of foxhound beauty.
Jane has been owned but a short time
by Mr.. Moen, having been purchased
from A. B. F. Kinney of Worcester.
]. H. Baird of Warren, well known in
Worcester, bred the pair and about
year ago Mr.. Kinney purchased

came apparent that Mr.. Moen was de-

Spot Cash, Randolph Crompton's
ungainly white hound, showed what a
little fellow can accomplish. The hound
is small and not at all fast, but he is
especially capable in picking up trail
and following it up to a start. Several
times during the week, Spot Cash has
been shaken by the pack but invariably
he has performed for himself, seldom
failing to get Reynard agoing Bandit
last years Derby winner, got first for
endurance, and a second for speed and
driving, but didn't score in the other
classes. DR.. Heffenger's dogs were
prominent however, Bandit, Resolution
and Bourbon, all place winners, being
owned by him.
Late this afternoon, Barre ceased to
be the headquarters of Brunswick Fur
Club members, the Worcester delega-
ton leaving for home shortly before 4
o'clock and others following.
During the gray of the morning, the
wind was northeast, such "a condition
being generally considered unfavorable
TO a good run. The hounds appeared
ambitious enough to furnish rare sport.
but there was little dew and scent was
not we'll placed.
Although 1t had been agreed to sound
the horn calling the dogs in at 10
o'clock, the hunt was really over two
hours before that time. The dogs were
cast off at 555 o'clock near the golf
links, north of the hotel. A trail was
struck before the pack had gone 2OI
yards. The trail was worked up into
Hancock swamp, where a fox was
jumped at o'clock. With Reward
agoing, the tongueing opened up beau
tifully and the lowlands rung with the
music OF the hounds.
To the Rogers place the pack fol-
lowed, warming on the scent and
racing for the lead on the scent. Near
Moose Brook the fox glided across the
road. and the pack followed about two
minutes behind. The hounds swung
to the south, the voices being raised
