believed that there is imminent danger OF general
European war.
The Pail Mall Gazette tonight declares the Minis
ters not merely lack tone as to the present crisis,
but they lack foresight to the probable future

question. The circumstances that have raised the
latter to q great and immediate importance here

CARRIER PIGEoNs 1t has been proposed
to send carrier pigeons to sea with steamers 10
order that in case of accident notification might
be sent to land We might thus have had
news of the City Of Boston. There has how
ever, been discussion as to the distances
which these birds fly. A great deal of popular
misconcep ption exists with regard TO the powers
COMMONLY supposed that it is only necessary to
take carriers to a distance Of several hundred
miles from home, and they will uncrringiy re-
turn. This is contrary to the fact. Although
pipeons of the carrier breed possess wonderful
instinct, end are endowed with extraordinary
''homng" powers, yet, to enable them to fly
great distances. they must be regularly trained.
When properly trained, however, there Is no
doubt that they can perform marvellous
Journeys.
