A DISASTROUS FLY.
The Recent 4OO-Mile Race Spoiled by
Thunderstorms.

dred and thirty-one birds from eighteen
lofts were liberated, contrary to instruc-
tons, by Mr.. ]. C. Dove at $50 am. on
May Is in a clear sky and a good south
west breeze.
An examination of the weather map
showed the course covered with thunder
storms, which played havoc with the birds,
and this, together with the fact that sew
eral members did not know that the iber-
alton had taken place. resulted In only
three birds reporting in time for record, al
though several other owners found birls
in their lofts on the following morning
which had been there the evening before
Those who reported arrivals were Messrs.
M A. Talbot, r. A. Hunt and Charles F.
Rupert whose birds averaged 1,O72 yards
1874 yards and 776 yards, respectively, and
who are therefore entitled to first, second
and third diplomas.
