THE COMING PIGEON RIA CE

In anticipation Of the challenge made
to the Southern California fanciers by
the California Homing club for a race
between San Francisco and Los Angeles
Messrs J. G. Girton, w. X. Crawford
and 0. +. Zahn have selected kit Of
homers In training. The training con-
sists in having the birds liberated at
different points on the road to accus-
tom them to the route and for muscular
development.
Last Wednesday they were liberated
at Lang (forty-four miles by rail) at
8 a. m. They arrived in groups of twos
and threes until all were home. The
first ones came in at 9:35 a. m. This
being their first toss beyond nine miles
and having range of mountains to
cross. the time is considered very short.
The California Homing club, of which
Mr.. H. F. Whitman of Alameda is sec
rotary, has arranged to have several
races among it's members while they are
training towards Los Angeles. They
are as follows: May II, from Salinas:

and w. J. Golcher. The Lincoln club
Will choose as four of the six, Franzen,
Daniels, Bruins and Karney, and has
plenty of good material from which to
pick the other two. In the Empire club
