Az ARTIFICIAL PIGEos Here is n
piece OF information which will rejoice the
hearts not only Of Mr.. Bergh and his
kind associates. bu, also of the pigeon
shooters. The Denver Tribune has been
shown an artificial pigeon. so constructed
as to be like thing Of life. The wings
are so arranged as to receive violen,
motion from a spring compressed within a
pedestal upon which the pigeon is placed !;
and the thing is raised in the air by the
pulling Of a trigger. The specimen sceu
by the Tribune flew about two hundred
yards. This is French invention. and
will give spor,smen IN opportunity to
show their skill without making a massa-
ere Of the innoccnts.
