The Largest Pigeon Coop In tho
Country.

"I have the largest and most complete col
lection of high-bred pigeons In the United
States and am willing to challenge any fan
cier in this country, or anywhere IN the
world when it comes to that, to show better
collection than that contained in my coop"
said DR.. Bunting Hawkins, of Bordentown,
N. j., yesterday The doctor has devoted
many years and spent fortune in breeding
thoroughbred birds, many of which have
been imported by him from the farthest ends
of the globe. In the centre of the beautiful
lawn in the rear of the doctors residence on
Farnsworth avenue, Bordentown, is nicely
arranged wire 'cloftn or coop, seventy five feet
in length, twenty-five feet in height and about
thirty feet in width Here are quartered the
doctors pets, as he is pleased to call them.
There are over 300 birds at present, valued at
about 81, 600 Among the lumber are any
quantity of prize winners.
A noted breeder from Germany lately
visited the coop, and whilo baiug shown the
birds ran across one which struck his fancy
50 that he declared II must take off my hat
to that Bird and forthwith barred his head.
The bird III question DR.. Hankins declares Is
the finest 'owl' in America. "lhave been so
successful in crossing and recrossing my
stock in the past" explained the doctor,
that I feel warranted in saving=that after
awhile mean to set the pigeon fanciers just
as crazy over my stock as horsemen are over
Vanderbilt's celebrated team. There is one
thing especially noticeable in mating pig
cons" he continued, 'tand it would be well,
perhaps, if some member of the human fam
lily would profit by the example. 1t is this:
After a pair have been mated one never
leaves the other until death intervenes. My
favorites are the carrier pigeons. That one
over there, said the doctor pointing to beau
tiful speckled Antwerp, SIS Snltana, who
once flew from Auck to Brussels, a distance of
500 miles, with 2,251 other birds, and was the
fifty bird in the order of time that made
the passage That little homer over there,
Alexandria, is from the first families of Vir-
ginia. Its mother was one of the ten trained
by the Old Dominion club, Of Alexandria.
There is q strange circumstance connected
with the Matching Of this bird. The mother
was brought on from Alexandria to my coop
on June Is, 1882 On that day she laid an
egg in one of the cages. The day following
she was freed and few back to Alexandria, Il
distance of l56 miles, in 164 minutes nearly
u mile a minute The egg was given to a
pair of nesting fowls, who Matched the little
bird. Every carrier in my coop has a
record of from $40 to $50 miles. They only

OHIO ELECTIONS

The chief political interest at present
attaches to the Ohio election, which
occurs in October next. Both political
parties confidently claim the state.
The contest is rendered the more i'm
portant, because the result in that state
will have large bearing on the next
presidential election. The Republican
platform declares in favor of high Ii
cense for the sale of intoxicating Ii
quors; also a constitutional amend
ment for prohibition. The Democrats
are arrayed against such platform,
and there has come to their aid the Ii
quor Dealers State Association, which
has resolved to support the Democratic
ticket. Besides this, the Democrats
will be aided by the prohibitionists,
who have distinct ticket in the field
Should the prohjbitionists cast 5000
votes, probably 1000 will come from
the Republican ranks, therefore so
much their loss.

to lead to better recognition of the

should not succeed, it will not prove
they were wrong in their demands: it
Will only prove what has often before
been shown, that in all contests be-
tween capital and labor the former al
most Invariably wins in the end. But
whichever side may be the loser, the
general public will Ibe the gamer; it
has aroused public sentiment to govern
ment interference, not to take away
vested rights of telegraph companies,
but to protect the rights of the people
against the wrongs of overshadowing
monopolies. The movement will
hasten the time when government will
take business into its own hands.

PRESIDENT ARTHUR.

A tidal wave for President Arthur
has rolled over the country the past
few weeks. He has suddenly deyel-
oped strength where it was not ex-
pected. The Chicago Neaos has pub
lished some hundreds of letters from
more or less prominent men of both
parties in answer to inquiries adj
dressed to them, asking their opinions
OF President Arthur's administration.
The opinion of no office-hofders under
his administration was asked. The
sentiments elected by the inquiries are
a strong approval of the Presidents
course, and, what adds to their import
ance, many of them came from persons
who have heretofore been regarded as
unfriendly to him. Very many VIII O
did not hold President Arthur in high
esteem when he succeeded Garfield
have changed their opinions, and now
express their decided approval of the
policy of his administration.

PROCESSION.

When the fact became generally
known last week that Father Cleary,
of this city, lad been elected President
of the Catholic Total Abstinence
Union of America, by the convention
at Brooklyn, N. Y, his friends resolved
to give him suitable reception on his
return. AS he was expected to ar
rive here on the IL o'clock train on
Friday night last, torch-light pro-
cession was arranged, and band of
music secured from Racine. At the
appointed hour procession of about
so tOrch-bearers proceeded to the de-
pot where large crowd of people
were found gathered, including Mayor
Newell and other officials. On the ar
rival of the train, Father Cleary was
escorted by the torch-bearers and a
large number of our citizens, preceded
by the band, to Market street, thence
to Main, thence to the park, thence on
Prairie avenue to Ann street, and from
thence to his residence. Here, as at
the depot, large crowd was ga thered.

come, to which Father Cleary re-
sponded in his usual happy manner.
thanking them for their manifesto
lions of kindness and respect. The
compliment paid to Father Cleary is
well merited, for no man has labored
more earnestly and successfully among
the Catholic population to advance the
cause of total abstinence than he.
