Dog Show Entries Show Queer
Fancies of the Public.
GREAT DANE POPULAR.
Bull Dogs and Russian Wolf
Hounds Are Numerous.
Boston Terriers, Too, Are Well
Up on Entry List.
SUNDAY.

New York, Feb. e.-Fashions in
dogs are strange and beyond under
standing, but something may be
CLEANED from the list of entries for the
dog show next week in the Madison
Square Garden. One of the features
of the list is the entire absence of
mastiffs for the first time in years.
The falling off in popularity is by
no means a new thing, for ten years
ago only ten entries were made, as
against thirty-seven In 1887, and that
number of twenty years ago was
good representation considering the
total number of dogs shown then,
which was far smaller than it is now.
The st. Bernard, too, was a more
popular dog than it is now. for in 1887
there were SO entries, while in 1897
the total was 149. and this year it has
dropped to IS. Newfoundlands have
about held their own, averaging be-
tween five and ten for the last twenty
years.
The Great Dane rs the most popular
of the big dogs now, the entry list for
this year being 102, just twice as many
as in 1897, while in 1887 there were
only six.
Bull dogs have made good strides
In 1887 there were, %, in 1897 Sc,
while the great number of 1913 has
been reached today Bull terriers, too,
have gained the showing in 1887 being
20: in 1897 it was 10. and this year it
is ia.
extent. In 1886 there were %, in 1897
%, and this year there were only 5.
Russian wolfho unds have made
themselves popular. The first one of
the breed was shown at the Westmin-
ster club show in 1889, in a big mis-
cellaneous class, and won first prize
as a siberian bloodhound The next
year there were three in the same
class and were given their right name.
Since then they have had regular clas-
sihcation, but did not become popular
for several years. the number being
only seventeen ten years ago. This
year the number has run up to eighty.
two.
Boston terriers have had a rapid
rise in popularity. There were seven
shown at the Garden in 1896, classes
having been made for the new breed
and the number has steadily increased
with each year until this year they lead
all breeds with. the grand total of 331.
The chow-chows made their debut
in the miscellaneous class in 1897, and
until a couple of years ago they did
not grow in number, but this year they
have reached a total of forty-eight
Only three POmeranians were shown
in 1897. but the great present popular
ity is shown by the lis entries for next

johnson swears on Tobacco After Six
ty Years and Expires.

Atlantic City, Feb. ST will die
trying to do right. I will not yield to
temptation only to perish in hell fire,
should be old John Henry Johnson-s
epitaph.
Conscious until his last gasp ana
clarifying in his moral strength, john
son, so years of age, died at his home
in Port Republic last night. Up to
a few days ago he had smoked tobacco
necessarily for three-score years.
Johnson and every man and boy in the
little town near here swore off tobacco
after an evangelist in st. PauPs Meth
odist church declared eloquently that
he who burns or chews or snuffs the
weed will burn eternally and cigarette
smokers will be particularly well
broiled. Fired by the sermon Miss
Amanda Blake. who keeps the general
store in Port Republic, made bonfire
of her stock of pipes ana tobacco.
Only a few hours after his renun-
citation of tobacco old Johnson was
taken i'll. His physicians said that his
nervous system, accustomed to the to-
bacco stimulant for sixty years. was
going to pieces for lack of 1t. They
told Johnson that If he took to his pipe
again he might get well. The old gen.
tleman retorted with words that may
be craven on his monument.
Nor did he need the encouragement
to stand fast given him in hundreds of
letters from women and men which
came to him after some of the facts
here were published.
Johnsons funeral will be one of the
largest ever known in the shore viii

TRADE HELD BACK
Recent Stormy Weather Has Re-
stricted New Business.
Difficulties in Delivery Have
Been Greatly Increased.
PRICES STILL ASCEND.
Speculative Interest in Wheat
Has Developed.
Bank Clearings Show Increase
Over Previous Week.

New York, Feb. 9.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
Severe storms restricted new bust
ness in many sections of the country
during the past week and increased
the delay in making deliveries on old
orders. Commodity prices advanced
as a rule Jobbers report a good de-
mand for spring delivery, especially IN
dry goods, but business IS retarded by
slow shipments from the mills. and
collections are only fair Manufactur-
ing plants operate at full capacity in
the leading industries, although there
are complaints of fuel scarcity.
Few variations are recorded in
quotations of iron and steel, the indus
try fully maintaining its remarkably
satisfactory position. although consum-
ers find deliveries less prompt because
of delays by deep snow and low tenn
perature. The difficulty of placing Sc
curities has tended to retard railway
extensions somewhat and new con-
tracts for steel rails are not coming to
the mills as rapidly as IN the closing
months of last year, but the tonnage
already on the books will take all the
output for many months.
Aside from the few upward price
movements there is no change in the
cotton goods situation; unless pressure
to place orders is noticed in some de-
partments, a wholesome condition IN
view of the large contracts already on
the books, while in other sections OF
the market there is still eagerness to
secure future deliveries with little re-
gard for prices. Some reaction at
times in option prices of raw cotton
had no depressing effect on the finish
ed product and the only weak feature
is the absence of foreign trade. In
quiries from China are at prices far
below the present views of sellers and
no business results.
New England manufacturers of foot
wear report a liberal demand from
eastern wholesalers for supplementary
spring lines, retail stocks having been
depleted by the vigorous demand that
has accompanied severe weather. Thus
far western and southern jobbers have
sent in few case orders for fall goods,
but there is ample time for develop
ment in this department. Improvement
is noted in leather.
Packers have sold hides suitable for
sole leather through March sailing at
full quotations, despite the fact that
the take-off this month and next is the
poorest quality of the year.
More speculative interest has devel-
oped in the wheat market, encouraged
by cabled reports of heavy home needs
for Russian wheat in relieving the
famine and increased inquiry by ex-
porters. Corn was firmly held above
last years quotations despite a move
ment that endorsed large crop esti-
mates but foreign demand was poor.
