How Homlng Pigeons are Trained.

Belgium is the native abode of these
birds, and there We find that the most
faithful experiments to perfect them have
been made In Europe they are known as
the Antwerp carrier, voyageur, or homing
pigeon.
Their flight is rapid, often averaging
seventy.five miles an hour. To drill them
properly, they must be taken when young
-at about three months old-and trained
to fly in o fixed direction, say north, south,
although having had considerable practice
in flying, will probably not return If car
ried far south from It's home aud then
turned loose. Starting--better early in
the morning-with the young bird, it
should be carried in an open basket, from
which it can readily view the surrounding
country to a distance of about half a
mile on the first day, and then turned
loose. On the following day this distance
may be increased for two miles, and for
the succeeding drills these distances could
be gradually increased at first, and later
on more rapidly, always taking the same
bird in the same direction TO obtain the
best result. The drill must be constant,
and even under such circumstances the
birds may fail to return to their home-if,
for example, while en- route they stop TO
teed, meet other pigeons, and become at
tached to some iarm-yard or other attract
i've place However, this would probably
occur only when flown for long distances.
Whether the weather be stormy or clear
does not seem To make much difference as
To the reliability of their fight, but the
character of the country appears to play
an important part, as in certain portions of
France and Belgium no success whatever
has been attained in flying them. Some |
have been flown in Europe at distances of |
over six hundred miles, but of those
turned loose only small percentage |
reached their home.
When urned loose 10 be flown to their
home, they rise straight into the air for
some distance, poise II moment, and then
start in the proper direction. 1t is sup.
posed that these birds fly correctly to their
home not merely from matter of in
stinct, as is exhibited in other animals,
but from lneir superior intelligence, OBJ

THE MODUS VIvENDI.

fhe Agreement Between the United States
and Great Britain for the Protection of
the Fur Seals In Behring Sea Pending
the Arbitration Signed by Sir Julian
Pauucefote, the British Minister and
Secretary Blaine.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-An agree
ment between the United States and
Great Britain for modus vivendi in re-
lation to the fur seal fisheries in Behr-
ing sea, for the present, was signed
yesterday morning by Sir Julian
Pauncefote, the British minister, repre-
senting the government of her Britain
mic majesty, and by James G. Blaine,
secretary of state. representing the
government of the United States. This
important agreement was signed at II
o'clock at the residence of Secretary
blaine. who, owing to the inclement
weather, did not go to the department.
He at once took it over to the executive
mansion and laid it before the presi-
dent, who in the afternoon transmitted
it to the senate for its action.
The modus is in the form of a supple
menatal convention to the treaty of ar
bitration recently negotiated and rati-
|
fed. The mOdus vivendi states that
both governments will prohibit during
the sealing season the killing of seal in
that part of the Behring sea lying east
ward of the line of demarcation, de-
scribed in article of the treaty of 1867,
between the United States and Russia,
and each government will enjoin its
| citizens and vessels to an observance of
this agreement.
The United States, it is understood,
is allowed to kill for the subsistence of
the natives on the islands of st. Paul
and st. George 1900 seals, the same re-
striction as was made last year, and the
United States binds itself to observe
this prohibition.
The vessels of either the United
States or Great Britain, or citizens of
either country, offending against this
agreement may be seized by either
of the high contracting parties but as
soon as practicable should be handed
over to the authorities of the nation to
which they belong, who shall have
jurisdiction to try the offenders and
impose the penalties for the same.
In general it may be said that the
document is a renewal of the agree
ment of 1891, with the addition of a
clause providing for the settlement of
damages sustained by the Canadian
seaiers through the interruption of
tl.eir business in case the arbitration
goes against the United States.
Under this clause, owners of Canadian
sealing vessels have already begun to
file their claims with commission ap-
pointed to receive and present them.
But Gen. Foster, the agent of the United
States, who is preparing the case for the
government, and Hon. E. J. Phelps,
counsel, are leaving no point uncovered,
and will be fully prepared to meet the
claims on this score in the event that
they shall ever be pressed for payment.
