The other day in a big city, down on
the busiest street of all. little sparrow
the commonest kind of gamin in the
bird world-was caught by one wing In
the girder of an elevated railway struc-
ture.
A passerby. attracted by the birds out
cry and peculiar call OF distress. looked
up and saw the little prisoner vainly
fiuttering in his effort for release-looked,
but nothing more. Gradually crowd
gathered, idly watching the struggles of
the pinioned bird, and as one after an
other the noisy trains sped along the
rails the sparrow fiuttered bit more
violently and then settled back; for II
was becoming feebIer all the while.
And the crowds still gathered, still
looked-and nothing more.
But the story would not be worth the
telling but for an inconspicuous figure
in the background, who for the moment
made himself the center OF attention.
He was a workman, and as he hurried
along with his tools in his hand. ne
looked at the crowds, then turned 10 the
family tiuttering bird. He was big. mus
cuIar. and evidently accustomed TO quick
thinking and as speedy action. For
promptly he began TO mount the steel
tie figure lay still.
Almost In a twinkling the bird was
released. but its strength was nearly
spent and II dropped painting to the
street, with the crowds still looking on
nothing more. And this time a boy,
standing on the edge OF the curious
crowds, picked up the little victim ana
protectingly carried him away to the
shelter of the nearest tree. And then
he stood guard for a while to learn that
the bird was able TO fly.
