in Making Awards.

prises in store for the spectators at the
speciality show of the Pedngese Club OF
America yesterday. Mounted on a green
velvet platform in the centre of the ball
room at the Hotel Plaza. Mrs. Herbert
handed out blues. reds and yellows with a
SAVIOR faire that took small notice Of the
anguish which was occasioned by some of
the awards. Every exhibitor was on the
alert and dogs were Chirped 10. fluffed up
nervou5ly and made to stand a attention
by the display Of pieces Of dried liver,
which were more suggestive Of utility
than esculence.
Mrs. NJ. f. Hardy won a notable victory
with one Of her recent lmpOrtatons, Chu-
Yen OF TOddngton. which captured a leg
on the J. Pierpont Morgan trophy for the
best dog or bitch in the show. Chu-Nen

sourly typical like the funny little China
man that he Is. Even 10 the lay mind IL
