Buencamino and some of the other
Filipino leaders in Manila have about

Independence, Jan. S0.-Today all the
joints in Montgomery county are closed,
and the whole county is dry for the first
time in several years. Yesterday Couu-
ty Attorney Dana sent word through the
postof1ce, notifying all the joints to
close and remain closed He also notife..
all the drug stores not to sell any liquor
except in the regular method prescribed
by law. BY night all these places were
closed and not a drop of liquor could be
had in town.
The county attorney also went to
Cherryvale and Coneyville and notified
the joint keepers and druggists to close
up, which has been done. Since Mrs.
Nation has been making so many raids
here has become very strong, and it is
lately, the sentiment against the joints
thought this is the cause for closing these
esta blishments.

CARRIER PIGEONS.
Where and When Used and What
They are Capable Of Doing.

The New Popularity Of the Carrier
Pigeon" is the title of an article by
George Ethelbert Walsh, which APP
pears in St. Nicholas. Both In war
and peace the carrierpigeon has won
new laurels in the past yea. and its
popularity as a well-bred pet and do
nestle messenger has become as great
as its usefulness as carrier of war
dispatches where telegraph and tele-
phone lines are not established. That
so innocent a creature as the dove
like carrier should be selected for i'm
portant war purposes, and taken into
the service for furthering the bloody
conflicts of modern armies seems out
of keeping with the aims of nature
and an abuse of mans power The
pigeon is eminently peace-loving
bird and its nature is so different
from those of the screaming eagle and
falcon that as an emblem of war it
should be a total failure. Nevelthe-
less, the timid bird has served armies
in times of need, and is cultivated
for its practical war usefulness to an
extent never dreamed of for either the
falcon or eagle. In a sense it is the
war bird of the day.
The pigeon post at Duban, in South
Africa, was The beginning OF the
