Pigeons as a Naval Force.

A number Of pigeons are now official
ly recognized by the British Admiralty
and form part of the naval force, states
a writer in the New Penny Magazine.
Whale Island at Portsmouth is the
headquarters of the homing pigeons
belonging to the navy-the birthplace
of the birds supplied by other lofts at
Davenport, Malta and Hong Kong.
This particular feature of the Royal
Naval Barracks was introduced in
1898 at the instigation of Capt Login,
who was then the commanding officer,
and has been developed and brought to
It's present state Of efficiency by that
gentleman's successor, Capt. Bayly.
The cost of keeping the birds-about
II per month-was betrayed by the
officers and men. The pigeons are
used, OF course, for the conveyance Of
messages, of which several thousand
have been received since the establish
ment of the loft. There is electric com
mun1cation between the huge cote and
the buildings, so that when a bird en-
tiers its dOmicile it causes a bell to ring
and 50 announces it's arrival. Many of
the mlsslves brought by the pigeons
have been of great importance, and
