: London, July 24.-Carrter pigeons,
first cousins to the "dove of peace"
are playing their part in the war,
birds of this breed being used by the
allies to transmit messages from one
part of the western front to another.
In localities where it Is impossible
to install telephone lines and too dan
gereus to wig-wag, pigeons are used
almost exclusively and few of them
have fallen into enemy hands.
French troops were the first to use
the "homers," probably introducing
them on account of their use in the
Franco-Prussian war when carriers
were sent by the scores from blockad-
ed Paris, carrying messages and even
private letters over the heads of the
b%esieging German army.
The extreme speed and directnese
of their flight makes the carrier pig
con a difficult mark for soldiers, who
seldom bring them down with their
rifles.
