CARRIER PIGEONS FOR TAKLE
TesMnger Birds from Uncle Sam'i Haty
r Find Way Into Omaha Hotel. ...
BAND ON LEG SHOWS GOVERNMENT SEAL
"IT. S, S. Booaevllle or Uenulnarton"
Appr.ru on One Bird Supposed
to Han Come from
Pad He Caast.
A number of pigeons were bought Friday
morning from the David Cole commission
house by the Murray hotel, and while dress
ing them It wu discovered that two of
them were of much larger size than the
ordinary domestic pigeon, and on a leg
of each of the large pigeons was a stout
metal band branded with the words, "L S.
Carrier Pigeon." This consignment of
pigeons were received by the Cole company
from Sioux City, but further than this
they could not be traced.
A few years ago the 1' nlted States govern
ment undertook to utilise carrier pigeons
for experimental messenger purposes, but
these were only utilised on the radii? and
Atlantic coasts, the service being confined
to the Navy department. On one of the
bands Is scratched "(J. 8. S. Bonneville or
Bennington." though the scratching is sg
neatly obliterated as to be almost unde
cipherable.
The question arises, where did theso two
carrier pigeons come from? The bands
how that they have bocn fastened to the
birds' leg for a long time and the portion
of the leg to which tlu- band was attached
is much abralded from constant friction.
Tho birds evidently have been In cold
storage for some time and it is possible
they may have been received in a shipment
from the Purine coast.
The returns of the Britt-NVlson fight
will be received at Ed Rothery's, 11th and

LEVYS RETURN FROM ABROAD
Mr, LTy Says No Europo for Him go
Long; as t'nlted States
Hold Oat.
Marrls Levy and family have returned
from a three months' stay abroad. They
visited Germany, which Is the home of Mr.
Levy's youth, Italy, Holland and the j
larger cities of France and England.
"America Is the best place to live." said
Mr. Levy. "I cannot understand how any
one who has been In this country for a
long time, can wish to go back to Europe
to live. They haven't the modern con
veniences and comforts we have here. In
many hotels which are considered first
class they have electric lights on the first
floor, and in places you are lighted to
bed with a candle. The railroad service Is
far Inferior to ours. The servant clasi
are all too obsequious, especially to Ameri
cans, bowing frequently and expecting a
tip every time they bow."
Mr. Levy noted great building activities
in the large cities of Germany, notably
Berlin. But hs found numerous smaller
towns no larger than when he left thirty
five years ago. SkJHed mechanics are in
big demand In Berlin. The people of both
France and Germany are lp an unusually
prosperous condition.

Trouble Relieved By Pe-ru-na
The Tonic That Cannot

Mr. George Livingston, ft prominent
architect and buljder of Los Angeles, Cal.,
writes from the Census Office building,
Washington, D. C as follows:
"I do not hesitate, when I see a friend
or acquaintance suffeiini; from a cold
that Is stubborn and threatening to be
chronic, to recommend Peruna.
"It relieved me from a long and dis
tressing catarrhal trouble and Tirought
back the strength the disease had taken
away.
"'I recommend It a a cure and a tonic
that cannot be surpassed."
I'KRSONAL. RKCOMMKNDATIONS
BETTER THAX ADVERTISING.
How often we hear and read the ex
pression, "A friend advised me to try
Peruna. I tried It and found it to be ex
actly what I was looking for."
At lenst ten times as many people have
taken Peruna because a friend advised
them to do so as have taken It because
they saw It advertised.
Advertisements, however attractive they
may be made, cause only a small per
cent of the sales of Peruna.
It Is the advice which friend gives to
friend which sells Peruna.
Peruna cures one person of some phase
of chronic catarrh, and because of this
cure a dozen other people are Induced to
take Peruna.
Attention Called to Te-rn-na.

"I consider Peruna one of the greatest

"Being an active man all my life, and
with the constant strain and ambition to

"I began at once to try to study myself

"I tried every remedy I could think of,
but only temporary relief would result,
