The San Francisco call., 1908-04-25

William Eliery's collies, which ex-
perts claim could carry off the blue
ribbons at any show throughout the
world, gained fresh honors at the show
of the San Francisco kennel club yes
terday in the Auditorium. They won
the sweepstakes for the best four in
clever style. The quartet which repre-
sented the Ellery kennels was made

Champion Valverde Faultless, Champion
Princess Of Tytton and Velverde We
roma. G. B. M. Grays Irish settlers
were placed second.

the show owned by lady brought
out strong field. The honors went
to Mrs. Irving c. Ackerman's toy Pom
eranian Thunderstorm Masher, with
Mrs. Horton f. Phipps' bull terrier,
Brooklyn Patsy. reserve. The latter
won this class at the Oakland show.
The class was an unusually large one,
some 80 ladies leading their representa-
tives into the ring. Judges p. II. Bry
son and Charles Lyndon acted jointly
in this class in the face of so much
beauty.
In the class for a brace of dogs Miss
Jennie Crocker was first with her Bos-
ton terriers, Clancy III and Dick Daz-
zler. In this class David Cresswells
cookers were placed reserve. These
were the only classes judged last night,
