NEW YORK Doe sHOW. KEAUDS IN COFFEE, The Seventh Annual Exhibition of the | Bogus Beans Macquerading as the | Some Inside Views of the American Westminster Kennet Clab—Ladiew Pretty Pews—The Canines that W Be Seen at Madison Square Garden This Week. From the New York Herald. ‘The seventh annual exhibition of dogs, held under the auspices of the Westminster Kennel Club, will be heid in this city on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of this week, at Madison Square Garden. The doors will open each day at 9a. m. and close at 10 p. m. Under the efficient management of Mr. Charles Lincoln, the show promises to outshine all its predecessors. Since the Inaugural exhibition in 1877 the canine world inthis country has been Tevolutionized. Every dog that is now entered for competition has some quality whereon to hang aribbon. As the fancy for dogs increased, judicious breeding was more looked to, so that ‘to-day there is no country that can show as fine a@ class of sporting dogs as America. “Dog show” week in New York has long since been recoxnized among fashionable cir- Cles as the flower shows are during the London season. Only, while the latter are palofully «the Westminster club exhibitions are democratic. There Murray Hill Mott. street. and opposite neighbors of y years’ standing, who have never even nodded before, scrape up an acquaintance be- fore the pens of their pets. The common ground ‘of the canine world. levels all dog lovers. Ladies come to pet their pugs, sporte- men to recount the achievements ot their set- ters. It isa place for little children to pester their parents for pets, their youthful fancy run- ning down the canine gamut from the solemn Mastiff to the tiny toy dog. The dogs bark and way their tails for every one and indulge in an extra wiggle when their owners bear in sight. People who have never been to a dog Show and who have been bred to the knowledge Of the orthodox cur alone gaze with wonder, and say they never knew how many different kinds of dogs there were in the world before, In . & first-class dog show is like @ trick at euchre and should be taken in when the oppor- tunity offers. MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. he return of the Westminster Club to Madi- gon Square Garden, after atwo years’ absence, has given satisfaction to everybody. It is not only the most convenient place to drop into for an hour or two, but It is, as far as ventilation and sanitary conditions go, the place of all others for the benching of dogs. The garden has been entirely covered with a board flooring, and thoroughtyd!sinfected since Jumbo's exodus. The arrangements this season are entirely dif- ferent trom those of previous years. The benching of the large dogs will be on an open platform, raised eighteen inches from the Ground and encircling the whole garden. This will enable every one to take In at a glance the mastiffs, St. Bernards, Newfoundiands, deer- hounds and other classes of dogs. Inthe center of the garden, with an aisle twenty feet ‘wide on each side, the small dogs will be exhib- ited In cages, These last have been constructed more spaciously than heretofore, being two feet square, with open wire netting fronts. At the Madise@ avenue and Fourth avenue ends large Tings for the judging have been laid out. Seatsen- circling them have been rided for ladies. ‘The Judging will be carried on simultaneously im both rings. Mg Lincoin will have nine dep- Uuties this year, under whose direction sixty at- tendants in uniform will have charge of the gene, watering and exercising of the dogs. h dog will be taken from his pen twice a Fd and given @ run in an enclosure at the urth avenue end of the building. In the —— —— floor there ee num- displays of sportsmen’s goods stuffed enknals and birds. THIS YEAR'S ENTRIES. Comparing the number of entries with those of former shows it is found that this year the en- tries are above the average. At the closing of the entry list on April 27 981 dogs had been booked for .ompetition, with an additional list of 34 litters of puppies. Estimating four pup- les to each litter, the number of youngsters Is found to be 152, showing that 1,133 dogs will be on hand to carry out Dr. Watts’ musical pro- gram. SETTERS AND POINTERS. In the setter classes the silky English and the mahogany colored Irish, the latter especially, Will be fonnd to excel in quality those shown in former years. The velvet coated and very beau- tiful pointers will be a grand display. During the last few years this class of dogs has been wonderfully Improved by the judicious breeding by such well-known phiio-kuons as Dr. A. Rus- sell Strachan, of this city: Mr. W. F. Steel, of Piermont, N. Y.; Mr. Edmund Orgill, of Brook- lyn; Mr. Godeffroy, of Orange county’ N. Y., and last, but not least, the St. Louis Kennel Club,of url. Many years ago, when this country was but In swaddling clothes, the pointer was imported to Virginia, and for years was held in high esteem. But although several strains were carefully perpetuated for many decades, they, in time, with their ‘owners, passed away, and jeft the setter in almost full possession. Of tate, however, the pointer stock has been rejuvenated, and now has many strong admirers. GRETHOUNDS AND CoURSING. The importation of greyhounds from England Iwalso on the increase.

Indeed, but to few are its pleasures known. It must, however, in time follow in the wake of other imported Saxon imes, and with the View of promoting the breed and organizing a coursing club the greyhound tanciers will hold a meeting on Tuesday evening next at Madison Garden. Should an organization be effected English hares will be imported, and no finer coursing ground can be found in this country than the plains of Montauk. In addition to the aboye meeting the mastiff breeders will also Come together during the show. OTHER Dous. There will be @ largeclass of bright and merry Hittle spaniels. The aristocratie fox terriers will count upto three dozen, an increase of eleven over last year. As nearly every dog has been imp ed since last year from the choice kennels of England tt may be sately sald that they will be the finest lot of terriersever seen together in this country.

Now eompare them with these, an@ tell me which you think are the better.” The grocer placed a handful alongslde of the others. The two Wts were of the same dark brown color, and, at a littledistance away, presented no very marked difference. Closer inspection showed that, while the coffee beans first shown were not all of the same size, the second handtul were of extraordinary regu- larity, the beans being very plump and large. “I know what you are going to tell me, and, at first glance, any one would say so. Your opinion is that the last lot is the best, isn’t it? Well, the difference between the two batches is that those which I showed you first are a fair lot of coffee beans,while the others aren’t coffee and never grew on a coffee bush,” hat kind of abush did they grow on?’ “No bush at all. They are a manufactured article. You need not look as if you didn't believe it for it's a fact on which you may safely risk yourlast dime. They are nothing more or less than imitations.made out ot dough,and browned up to resemble the true coffee. They are made in moulds and baked afterward. Each one is almost perfect In shape and are all alike. You won't find genuine coffee beans to have such regularity.” Toor allright, but it strikes me that “They no one would mistake the beverage made from them for coffee ” “You are wrong again, young man. No re- spectable grocer would be foolish enough to give any customer who buys apound of coffee & pound of the imitation. No, indeed. They mix it in the proportion of four or five of coffee to one of the imitation. Nobody examines each bean. You hear persons complaining of vad coffee all the time. ‘I’m sure I can’t tell how it is, says the housekeeper; I buy the coffee in the bean and grind it myself. Iam sure it is not adulterated.” “You see, the grocer can mix chicory with ground coffee, but when coffee Is bought in the bean something's got to be done. Some brilliant mind got over the difficulty by making coffee beans to order.” ——_—_-e-_______. MILITARY INGENUITY. A Confederate’s Effort to Utilize Lame Men and Crippled Guns, From the Arkansaw Traveler, “T never will forgive the Confederate Govern- ment,” sald Col. Wartick, when asked to reiate @ war reminiscence. “I started out with a ripe determination of doing everything in my power for the cause, but men who had more authority than I had pulled against me, and consequently I stepped aside. They even went so far as to court-martial me. Now, if there ts anything in military life that takes @ man’s appetite it is to be court-martialed. It’s pretty bad in civil life to be tried before a Justice of the Peace, but that isn’t anything to compare with a court-mar- tal. and especially when he knows full well beet has done nothing to merit such severe andling.” “Why were you court-martialed, Colonel,” foe one oe company. tinny date seat “Ror the e discharge of my duty. about the time it behooved the Confeds to make every edge cut that could I was sent into ® community to guns and to draft and aria every available man. Well, I went to work and discharged my duty in accordance with my construction of the order. At one place we selzed a large number of double-barrel shot- gaps. In examining them we found many that were 80 greatly that only one ‘barrel could be used. I told my men not to throw them aside, but to keep them, that they would come In handy. In this community there were @great many saw mills and family feuds, and consequently there were a great many one- legged men. One day I issued an order that all the one-legged men to be found within a radius of 25 miles should be brought into camp. The order was strictly obeyed, and wil two weeks we had 75cripples. Forming them in line one day, I ordered the disabled shotguns to be brought out. When I took up a gun whose right barrel was useless I would give it toa man who had lost the use of his right leg, and so on until the seventy-five men were armed. This was strictly appropriate, for we had no other use tor the crippled guns, and the country certainly had no other use for the crippled men. I took great I wanted it to of,himseif. They elected a captain, atall fellow, who lost his left leg while rafting logs. We presented him, attended by disabled ceremony, with a broken sword and double-barreled pistol, with one hammer gone. It would have tickled you to death to have seen them on dress parade, and their quick-time would have made Napoleon pulloff his hatandgrin. Well pretty soon I had oc- casion to use them. The enemy came upon me unexpectedly, and in the hurry incident upon such occasions, 1 placed the one-legged com- pany in the warmest of the fleld. The bat- ten ers several hours, and was a ose ight. My one-legged company suffered greatly. The Captain's peg was shattered by a ball, and during the fight he sent an orderly into the woods to make him snother leg. Other mem- bers of the company were similarly #erved, and, Sir, the amount of splinterson the battle ground was slmply astonishing. The enemy had fired low, and three out of six wooden lega were dis- abled. Before complete repairs could be made, my General came along, and not being able to understand why so much kindling wood should be scattered over a battle-fleld, asked the rea- son. I explained, expecting him to compliment me on my ingenuity, but the unappreciative fellow had me court-martialed.

Correspondence of the Phitsdelphis Times. Vienna, Aprii 19.—In February last I saw and heard Mr. Edwin Booth at the Residenz ‘Theater, Berlin; I have come over here from Paris purposely to assist at the finish of his Vi- enna engagement, and having thus studied him several times I think I am in.a position to say something about his German tour. Thus far all that i one on to the American news- rs about the “illustrious tragedian’s” suc- ae on the Continent was written by. his “gen- tlemanly agent,” Mr. Wynn Miller, ® fact which that industrious person himecif confessed to me. In Vienna, as in Eer- in, Hamburg, Hanover, and other German cities Booth played to curious, but by 20 means over-enthusiastic audiences. There been at each performance a very large claque present, and acertain number of Americans have also alded these paid auxiliaries in Leetops J upa show of applause, which doubtless satisfied the actor's artistic longings, but which fooled none of us as to its genuineness. These people, both northern and southern Germans, know very little of the English | , and as their ideas about Shakespeare's works are quite different from ours it will be readily understood that the spec- tators, other than those I have just referred to, could not become greatly excited over the ex- cellent acting of a tragédian who is, I think, without a superior in the world. I am tmpelled to assert, then, that quite two-thirds of the pay- ing public have attended these performances out of mere curiosity. Mr. Miller assured me that Booth’s German engagement has been as great an artistic as it has been a financial success, a statement which he said he had already cabled to the Associated Press in America. As it is easy for me to get at the financial results of this engagement, and as, according to Wynn Miller, the artistic success was equal to the financial one, we may thus ar- rive at that also. Mr. Booth gave twenty-elght performances at the Residenz Theater, Berlin. At ordinary prices that house will hold only 2.400 marks (a mark is about 24 cents), but while Booth was there the prices were raised and average receipts amounted to 3,200 marks, or say $800 a night. He playedina larger thea- ter at Hamburg and the average was a little better. At Hanover, where he gave tour per- formances, one house counted up to over 4,600 marks, the everage in that city being close on to $1,000. Here in Vienna the average receipts have amounted to about 8750. Now of the total receipts Booth received one-fourth—that is to Say, 25 per cent—as his share; hence his gain in this continental exhibition of himself has been only $180 to $2258 performance. For a trage- dian who has repeatedly refused to play in the United States tor less than $500 a nigutgasrere teed, this !s quite a come-dowa, is It not The American tragedian and the German ac- tors ana actresses in their intercourse with each other formed themselves into a mutual admira- tion society, which was really touching in its sentimentality. In proof of their friendly feel- ings the native artistes have Mr. Booth with numerous allver , Mugs and music albums as room souvenirs of their appre- clation of hishistrioniceftorts. The lager beer and sourkrout lunches which were served up in exchange for these gifts have fortunately not been very expensive to the American actor and his manager. Mr. Booth really likes Ger- mans, but he has a poor opinion of their knowl- edge of Will Shakespeare. Throughout his con- tinental tour he has failed to discover a single soul about the theater that ever heard of A Winter's version of the immortal bard. Not withstanding that the star played in English and the local troupe in German there was never any reeptible hitch in the tragical ceremony. It ls true that Booth did not know a word of the vernacular except yah and nein, but he {s so per- feu familiar with all the roles of the tragedies in which he acts that he could tell by the meter when the giver of the cue had reached the end of his or her lines. As for the local talent there wasno need at all of their understanding the Queen's English. I do not believe that German actors ever learn their parts. Mr. Booth says they do not, and it will hardly be denied that he has had expert- ence. They attend rehearsals only to learn the “‘business;” as for the words, they rely wholly on their triend the prompter. That useful fanc- tionary takes his place in the little box in the middle of the stage by the footlights, and when the actors are on they listen with all their ears to that which he is reading, and they repeat the lines after him, a little louder, perhaps, but not much. Your good German prompter will not permit his more or less melodious gutterals to be squelched under a wooden hood, and in these theaters we, as a rule, get our money’s worth inthe matter of utterance it not of excellence. The prompter reads right straight along in a go- as-you-please tone with now and then a spurt of rising Inflection when he discovers some one on the stage trying to get past him. When the prompter reached the cue he used to stop to give the American thunder a chance to spend itself. Under the English lines in the prompt book were rows of figures; these asalsted the prompter to eee. track of the meter; he was ‘hus enabled to know when Booth had spoken his part, and then the verbal race aforemen- tioned was renewed. ——___+-e-______ The French System ef Arbitrations. From the Toronto Giobe. A “council of wise men” is created in a manutacturing center on the requisition of the municipal council. It constats of six or more pru'dhommes elected in equal numbers by the masters and workmen, and a president and vice president, appointed by the government, one of them being an employer and the other a workman. The government nomination ef the two chief members is complained of by some work ingmen, but ts sperored of oy others, as experienze gained under a former law tended to show that election by the councils caused strife that was never healed, and led to much party feeling. The president and v ice president hold office for three years and are eligible for reap- pointment. The other prud' hommes are elected for six years, but one-half retire every three years. In case of a vacancy occurring the refect of the munictpalty orders anew election. ‘oman Is eligible under the age of $0, and the electors must be 25 years of age, and, If work- men, must haye served at their trade for five years. Neither president, vice president nor member of the council is paid, a fact which, sur- prising as it may seem to us, Is not apparently looked upon in France as materially interfering with the efficient working of the council. In many towns there are several councils, trades being grouped in a somewhat arbitrary fashion, but with the general intention of securing in some measure similarity in the trade customs and regulations ofeach group, and hence suffi- cient acquaintance on the part of the councilors with these trades to enable them to adjudicate intelligently. The “consells” have in most the powers of a regular law court, and take cogni- zance of disputes between master and work- man and between workmen themselves. The consell ts sub-divided into a private bureau and & general bnreau, the former consisting of two members and Intended to effect a peaceful set- tiement, failing which the dispute must go from “the peacemakers” for heanng before the other and larger bureau of procedure, which is very simple and admirable. Ona complaint belng lodyed the clerk of the council sends a courte- ous invitation to the defendant to attend at a certain time. This invitation 1s generally ac- cepted; but if not, a formal summons Is issued at the cost of the suit, and, if necessary, a third is Issued at the cost of the defendant, who, fall- Ing to then appear, is lable to punishment for contempt of court and to having Judgment by t the hearing default rendered against him. no lawyer or attorney can plead; nor is any dis- cussion between complainant and defendant permitted, as it might by tale en hot temper retard an easy settlement.
