Yesterday both Haymarket Faultless

fore the veteran Judge, T. S. Belln, in
splendid condition, and it was immedi-
ately seen that bitter contest was

terrier quality. The award was pop

Another sensation of the show was
the run of victories chalked up by John
Sweeneys Mystery Marchioness, a
puppy little more than nine months

hand throughout the day. From the
time the doors were opened at 10
o'clock in the morning until late at
night the three floors were thronged
with visitors, who showed keen interest
not only in the dogs, but in the judg-
ing.
The general interest manifest in the
awards is one of the features of this
years show. Heretofore, especially at
the Garden, the crowd contentcd itself
with strolling by the various benches
and curiously glimpsing the animals.
The various benches, of course, still re-
ceive attention, but the majority pres
ent are to be found around the rings
