English settlers again furnished the
sensation of the evening. winning first

were shown. All day long as well as
during the evening session these dogs

spectators.

all the owners. Three judges will be
required to decide and the votes of
two of them viii be final

has been completed. Last night a few
special prizes were awarded, but still
the crowds did not desert the coops
