. Breeder and sportsman. Horses. Mid-Summer Catch, of Trout. DOINGS IN DOQDOM. Fred H. Bashnell and J. F. Gleason have returned after an extended Eastern trip. Mr. Boshnell went across the Atlantic and visited the principal cities of the Continent. Field trial men here are enthusiastic over the high quality and breeding listed in the Derby nominations, and are sanguine in the expectation of running as grand a lot of purple bred youngsters as were ever cast off in a field trial. Hen Crocker's Chief, winner of last year's Derby, Handler Coutts says is daily showing improvement in style and qnality. Another of his charges, Joe Cnmminge' Boy, is showing up splendidly. P. D. Linville's Maggie F. is a Derby candidate that her owner believes will outdistance her class. The statement was made in these columns three weeks ago that it was probable that Col. J. W. Renfroo would judge the field trials at Whidby Island next November. Since then Col. Renfroe has been requested to judge at these trials, we are reliably informed, and has consented to do so. The gentleman mentioned is a field dog breeder of note and a thorough sportsman. The northern club is to be con- gratulated on acquiring the services of a veteran and exper- ienced judge. We are sorry to announce the meagre list of entries for the Sacramento show that is two-thirds at least less in numbers than it should have been under the circumstances. The Pacific Mastiff Club, which has such a grand array of club prizes emblazoned in the premium list, has not made a single entry. It is to be regretted that a better support of the show has not been given by the fancy at large. The list of entries in each breed is as follows: St. Bernards, rough coats 24, smooth coats 4, Great Danes 5, Newfoundlands 1, Greyhounds 4, American Foxhounds 3, Pointers 14, English Setters h, Irish Setters 3, Gordon Setters 2, Field Spaniels 2, Cocker Spaniels 17, Collies 12, Bulldogs 1, Bull Terriers 4, Fox Terriers, smooth coat 21, wire haired 2, I
