 There were many pigeons at the show, too. They were also of all colors, buff, white, gray, gray and green, and brown and speckled tails,
 Some of them were standing with their tails out straight. Some of them had their heads held SO far back that they were resting on their tails.
 And some had their tails spread so as to look their very best and were strutting around talking softly to each other and to the people.
 They were trying to say, "Coo, coo, coo, coo, come to see us. We're quiet and we don't make much noise but we try to be sweet and gentle and loving.
 'YouIl find there are many lovely ones among us. Do come, coo, coo, coo"

Makes A Report On Operation
 At Katella

Cordova, June 12.-Falcoa Jos lin, president of the Boring River Coal company, operating at Kat ala says:
 Development work on the coal Is going ahead. Our principal work is driving g rock tunnel tn- to the mountain side north of Car bon creek to cross cut ten oual vein which out crops along the face of the ridge This tunnel ss now in over 900 feet. It hss cut several small seams of coal and sons larger onas, st least one of which We hope will prove to be workable. We have not drdfted on any of them as yet. We are still driviDS on this rock tunnel and hope to cut 8 good vein within the next 700 feet or so.
 "A few days ago We cut into a small seam of dirty coal and slate with a lot of water. There was 8 lot ot caving which delayed us some, put We are past that trouble now and going ahead again. We have been short Of power and are now moving up another boiler from Canoe landing. This ts quite a job on the soft dirt road. We have 500 feet or more Of other prospect tunDel and another vein which we call vein 16. ThLs Is s Vrey prom ising vein of coal. The quality of the coal seems to be sxcel ent, though no doubt much Of 1t will hava to be washed before market ing. It Is good steamtng coal aud cokes good. Our problem is to develop enough Of it to make a commercial mine. It also reInaios Q bA proved whether ws can mine, transport and market It a cost that will enable Us to meet the oompe- tition of oil and other coals. We expect to tram out little coal this summer for tests.
 Work at the oil wells Is also going ahead. We got a little oil in our well No 13 at S35 feet, which has increased as We go down. We are now a little over 800 feet down and the well appeas to be making 25 barrels per day, though it is very difficult to get an acour- ate test while the drilling Is gotng and until the protuction has become settled. It is evidently going to be as good as any well We have and perhaps better. Though the pro duction Is small We feel eRcouTGsed because 1t indicates that We are drilling in the right direction. This well Ia several hundred feet up the mountain side and ws will continue drilling on that lima"
