The pigeon post at Durham, in sout

sard, Of the Royal Engineers a staff Of

of the carrier pigeons, and befo,e the
war broke out he had established pigeon
posts between most of the belea gueg ed
cities. From Ladysmith Kimberley and

George Whites first message from Lady

1t was only a short time before the out
break of the war in South Africa that tn
English government had decided to es

the navy, pigeon. posts were recognized
means Of carrying information as carly
as 1886 and there are over a thousand
birds recorded on the books of the roya
navy. The first naval loft was at Ports
mouth and now there are two Others. In
the English army the posts have been
confined almost exclusively to the Cape
where the nature of the country make

The development of the war honine
pigeon service throughout Europe has
been more rapid than elsewhere 6na

In Germany. for instance, every pigeon
raised by private breeders must be regis,

tiles reserve the right to. claim and take
possession of every carrier pigeon in the
land. In addition to this. every fortress and
camp on German soil has it's pigeon
service, and over $4,000 is appropriated
annually for the support of this service
There are upwards Of ten thousand pig

and every bird is carefully trained and

The United States military and naval
authorities have approved of the pigeons

The mourning stamp which may be seen
displayed in some London curiosity
shops, issued by the Firms to mark the
final extinction of their independent is
sues, may recall other instances in which
political changes and developments in
various countries have left their record
on the postal labels, says the London
Globe. We are now familiar with the
'V. r. l." stamped upon the issues OF
the two former South American republics,
but few, perhaps, remember that the
old stamps of the Transvaal were also
used for some time after the former an

''V. R." In something the same way,
during the war of Peru against Chilli,
about twenty years ago, when the vic

Peruvian provinces, the Gillian arms
were impressed on a large number of the
stamps taken in the postoffices.
The political changes of our friends
across the channel are clearly illustrated
