PIGEON BUSINESS
 IN THE VALLEY
How the Territorial Fair Will Stim-
 ulate It.

One of the prettiest exhibits at the coming territorial fair will be the pig con department The coups in the poultry house this year will be rear ranged in the form of a cross, inclosed in a square. Above this cross in the center will be constructed wire cages or flying pens large enough to contain fifty or sixty pigeons. A premium of ten dollars will be offered as the first prize and one of five dollars as second prize to the exhibitors who fill their pens with the greatest variety of birds of beauty and quality. The award will not turn on the greatest variety of pigeons shown alone but more upon the beauty and quality of the varieties shown
 When it is known that many breed CTS in this valley and in the territory have as many as twenty or thirty of the finest varieties bred. it is to see the possibilities for a beautiful exhibit to be made. It must be understood that this exhibit is not to take the place of the regular prizes for the first second and third pairs of variety known to the Standard will be offered.
 Pigeon breeding or squab raising is fast becoming one of the recognized industries of the territory. A few years ago the restaurants had to depend upon the uncertain supply furnished by various small boys. who possessed a few pigeons or knew who did. Squads brought ten and fifteen cents a pair Since the introduction of better varie- ties, better methods of feeding and handling. it is easy to get thirty cents a pair for all that can De raised with better prices yet awaiting for anyone guaranteeing a sufficient supply.

 Among the homers the blue-barred and the blue -checkered are the favor ties, the other six or seven sub-varie- ties of homers being raised for beauty and plumage. The white and black dragons are handsome birds. good breeders and fine for squabs. but slower in maturing than homers. And so it goes on through the list like it is with chickens. one breeder declaring this variety is the best and another swearing by that when in fact the best is the one you like best-for you.

quarter, while he advanced few
steps toward the sous-lieutenant, who
stood with his hands still clasped be-
hind his back, and a fine scorn touch
ing the severe line of his lips.
Il am an officer, monsieur, as you
can see," he replied, his tone in keep
ing with his disdainful composure;
"and one who, by training as well as
by nature, cannot but object to see
such display of cowardice in any
man, be he courtier or simple citi-
zen."
"Mille tonnerres!" cried Etienne,
white with rage. But you shall an
swer for such insolence!"
"As you please, monsieur and when
ever you shall say" replied the sous
lieutenant, glancing past him at the
two boys, who were now close to one
another, directly behind Etienne,
their faces filled with surprise and
satisfaction at seeing him thus
brought to bay.

backing off over the grass; "and new

Then he turned, and the trio depart

When they were gone, the SOUS
lieutenant joined the two boys, who
were now standing by the edge OF the
pond, searching for some trace OF
their late captive.
AS he approached, Jean looked up at
him, and, with characteristic impul-
siveness, caught one of his hands,
while Pierre, with peasants dumb
ness, gazed at him with an admiration
his stupid tongue would never have
been able to express.

the younger boy, his face aglow with
enthusiasm. "Ah, but it was fine

blazing angrily as they met those OF
his half-brother.
"Sneaking spoil-sport! How dared
you" cried the boy.
"Daredl" repeated Etienne jeering-
ly, while his companions again
laughed uproariously. "Mais, you i'm
pudent young cub, think it were
well to cool your temper by sending
you after your turtle" With this he
seized Jean by the collar, as If to
throw him into the pond.
The lad, mute with passion, struck
out fercely with his fists, until
Etienne, his rage making him forget
his dandyism and fine raiment,
grasped more firmly the jeweled cane
he carried, and began to rain blows
upon the head and shoulders not so
very far below his own not great
height, while he held fast to Jeans
collar with grip whose firmness was
out of keeping with his frail and puny
build.
A clear, icy-toned voice suddenly
cut the air like a flash of steel.
Pardon, monsieur; but would you
not like assistance?"

look had affected Jean so oddly a
short time before.

CHAPTER /

Paris, in the year 1890, and the gar
den of the Tuileries bright with the
sunshine of an autumnal day. Two
boys, seated in the grass near a path
not far from one of the ponds, were
playing with turtle they had cap
tuTed.
The humble origin of the elder, a
lad Of thirteen, was evidenced by
those physical signs which are usu-
ally associated with people OF his
class; but the other, three years
younger, bore all the indications OF
gentle birth His sire was baron of
the "ancien regime" while Pierre's
father had been a peasant, and his
widowed mother the faithful nurse of
her who had lived but two months
after giving birth to the boy Jean,
whom Margot loved as her own
Pierre.
Presently there came along the
promenade a trio of court gallants,
attired in the extreme of the prevail
ing fashion, beruffied, bejeweled, and
perfumed. One Of them was slen-
derby built young man, whose sharp
features, pale-blue eyes set closely to-
gether, thin lips, and weak chin, gave
ample proof Of his nature and dispo-
sition.
A more striking contrast to the
younger boy could not well be mag
ined. Yet the same blood ran in
their veins, for the newcomer was
Etienne, Jeans half-brother, who had,
for some time past, been occupying
an unimportant position at court.
He espied the two boys before they
noticed him, SO engrossed were they
in heading-off the turtle, whose in
stinct seemed to tell it how to find a
way to the nearby pond.
The three courtiers paused in the
pathway; and Etienne, stepping
quickly over the grass, gave the tur-
tie well-directed kick that sent it
splashing into the water
He and his friends then laughed
boisterously, while Jean and Pierre
sprang to their feet, the formers eyes
