USE OF PIGEONS IN WAR.
Japanese Have Scored a Success with
Travelling Lofts.

JdpahCSC hdfC CCoICu a. CuCCCes With
Travelling Lofts
With an army on the march the USE
of pigeons as messengers has so far
proved failure, all experiments to get
these birds to return to a loft continu-
ally on the move having been void of
success, says the Pilgrim. Japan has,
however, with the tenacity of purpose
for which she is famous, scored a suc-
cess with travelling lofts. Such lofts
are stocked with birds as soon as they
are old enough to leave the nest, and
the birds are kept confined within 1t
until required for USE The whole loft
is then transferred to the military
base, or temporary post near the scene
of operations and the birds, then sew
eral months old, are given their liberty
for the first time. Not having flown to
another locality, they quickly settle
down to their new surroundings, and
in a few. days are familiar with the
country for miles around. Every OPP
portunity is seized to give them addl-
tional experience before being actually
used In the service, and to keep open
VIII du dON dnCt COl-
umn, or for scouting work, these tray
cling lofts have proved invaluable.
Should, however. the base of. opera
tons be advanced, or temporary post
abandoned, the birds are at once dis
carded and a new loft transferred to
the altered surroundings.
Scouts, both mounted and on cyclS
each carry from four to six birds in a
bamboo cage, slung after the fashion
OF knapsack and thus reports are
sent back without the necessity OF
their leaving their post Of observation
For great distances two birds may be
flown with the same dispatch, but this
is seldom required, the usual custom
being to repeat each message on sub
sequent birds, so that the final pigeon
liberated would not only carry its own
but also copy of the messages sem
by the birds first liberated. 1t must b.
understood that the flight of the pig
con would be seriously impeded wer,
1t to be burdened with any great
weight, and consequently dispatches
are written on specially prepared slips
OF rice paper. These. contrary to the
general impression, are not tied roun(
the birds neck, but are rolled ant
placed in celluloid holder, fastene;
by two clips to the birds leg, and ar
thus carried close under the tail o
the bird when 1t is in flight. The tota
weight of this carrier, which is manu-
featured by Belgium firm, is undo
four grams.

He Would Like TO Know.

A japanese of an inquiring turn OF
mind has recently addressed a note to
the Village Improvement Society Of
South Orange, N. ]. The subject Of
his investigation is one that is ia
miliar to most parts of the world, but
no doubt the community Of which the
inquiry is made will feel iattered by
this evidence of its popularity.
The honorable of the South Oranges
are asked in what way they rid them
selves of him the much troublesome
mosquito? How do they approach him
in his house among the reeds and
marshes, so as 20 remove him effec-
tually from the dangers that he does
to people of good minds whose skins
he must puncture? All this 1 would
like so much to know.

other drop; that small boys threw
stones at it, and that the town was in
an uproar?
Yet such is history. A book in the
city library says 1t is so. hence 1t must
be so. In fact, there Is not the slight
est doubt Of it. for the night watch

Nothing Too Good.

In the remote Businesses of the
Southern mountains there are many
cabins In which sugar, even of the I'M
refined variety, is unknown. Most
things go unsweetened, but for espe-
cial occasions there is reserved a jug
of molasses or corn syrup, known IA
military as "long sweetening."
1t was In such a cabin that an tin
Grant preacher was called upon to pass
the night. The mountaineers were de-
lighted at the honor of entertaining
such distinguished company. When
supper time came, the usual repast OF
biscuits and frizzled pork was increas
ed by the addition OF boiled potatoes
But when It came to pouring the cot

produced a demijohn of ''long sweeten
