Homing Pigeons.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
A story comes from New York
which imposes q severe tax on the
credulity of the reader, if he is called
upon to believe in the deductions
evidently intended to be drawn from
1T. The story is that on July 26,
1889, two carrier pigeons were released
from an ocean steamer 700 miles out
of New York, and that one of them
has Just returned to the home loft,
the story saying, in addition, that
sit is supposed that the returned
waaderer has been flying about con-
stantly in various parts of the world
in his eDdeavors to reach home, and
he is credited with the longest fly on
record.n
The intelligence Of homing pigeons
is an old story, and some of their
feats have been very marvellous, but
TO assume that a pigeon has been on
the wing constantly for over year
because 1t has taken all that time
to get home is as violent presump-
ton as to imagine that messenger
boy has been walking all the time
because he consumes q full hour in
taking a message two blocks.
If the pigeon in question possessed
the gilt of articulate speech, coupled
with that integrity which would for
bid him to tell lie, he would PROB
ably confess that he had been putting
In the most of his year wandering in
paying delicate attentions to one or
more young lady pigeons; and this
hypothesis is strengthened by the
fact that the name of the long-lost
pigeon is "Dude," and that when he
was at last discovered on his familiar
perch he had sort of ennuie look, as
of one who had come to the conclu-
sien that all was vanity. This is GER
tainiy quite as reasonable as TO sup
pose that Dude" had been on the
wing constantly for fourteen months;
for the endurance of carrier pigeon
must have some limit.
Some years ago there was scien-
tific man i'm England who used to
amuse himself In his leisure hours in
inventing instances Of remarkable
animal sagacity, and some of his fab
relations are said to have been at
tended with wonderful success in
making unsuspecting people open
their eyes. This pigeon story would
indicate that the mantle of the Eng
lish Joker had fallen on some Ameri-
can, and that he has begun his career
with story which it is not easy, to
dispute, though 1t is very hard to be-
Iieve. The difficulty Is that the pigeon
can not tell his own story, and that
nobody can tell it for him, but in the
absence of any accurate information
we must adhere to our own theory,
that "Dude" has been on prolonged
spree of somewhat tender nature,
and that he returned to his dovecot
only when his lady love grew cold
and tickle.

that he had been robbed by a hackman
last night. The only thing he knows
about the hackman, is that he gave his

out riding about town, when the hack
man, who saw his game, began to borrow
sums of money from him, and when he
had borrowed quite pile af it, he disap-
peared in the Washington, and left the
