May Cross Ptarmigan with Homing Pigeon <
To Produce Illicit Booze Carrier for Alaska ,
Fox breeders on islands in Southeast,
ern Alaska are talking about crossing
the ptarmigan with me homing pigeon
to carry whiskey f ern Prince Rupert
to the farms
Ai-lhorit/ for tnt statement whim
may seem extraordinary to people of
the States, i.. Karl Blesocm, newspape•
min of Ju. eau. Blossom said that ir.
h:s opinion however, tlm crossing of
the ptarmiga 1 with the Homing pigeon
is about as likely as he heavy fall of
blue snow that Paul Bu >yan told about
or about as likely as finding ’he
Prince of Wales scrubbing floors in a
poorhouse, which means it isn’t.
However, Blossom said that he is
acquainted with one fox fanner on
Chichagof island, about 400 miles to
the north of Prince Rupert, who week
ly sends five homing pigeons to the
Canadian city and they return with
small flasks of rum tied to their feet.
The Newspaper man declared posi
tively that this is no Paul Bunyan
story. The pigeons are sent away j
from the island with empty flasks and j
have been trained to know the resi
dunce of the Prince lvupert man who i
fills the little bottles. Blossom said |
he didn’t know what would happen if
dee llask filler should move.
I
Historic Cabin Shown
in “Tol’able” David
When “Tolable David,” which Asso
ciated First National Pictures, Inc., is
releasing as Richard Barthelmess’ 1st
starring vehicle, appears on the screen
northerners for the first time wili see
one of the most famous historic spots
i of the Civil War. It is Mosby’s cabin
i in which the famous Confederate guer
; ilia leader took refuge after the bat
tle of Winchester. The story is pie
| turesqUely told in the famous poem,
!“Sheridan Twenty Miles Away.”
Tradition in the Virginia mountains
; to this day insists that any man desir
ing to escape’ cannot be captured in
this territory.
Union soldiers, hot on the trail of
I Mosby, came to the cabin where he had
paused for a bite to eat. Without hesi
tation he climbed into the chimney.
Searching for him, they failed to find
j the rebel leader, as the hot chimney
! seemed inaccessible to them as a hid
| ing place.
| Daniel Boone, the famous pioneer of
Kentucky, is also credited with having
stopped at the cabin, “D. Boone,’ be
ing carved in aged, worn letters on a
log. The cabin is one hundred and
fifty years old.
