Birds Apartment Burned;
Entire Colony Homeless

: A flock OF English sparrows who had
painstskingly constructed a spsrrows
apartment house, under the ewes Of the
Weaver Ice Company factory, at Fifth
and W streets northwest, are homeless.
They were burned out yesterday morn
ing. 4 spark from the big stack OF the
plant fell in one Of the dozen or more
nests constructed OF paper, grasses,
rAvslled rope and cotton and instaptly
there was blaze.
Cock Sparrow. and Mrs. Sparrow were
forced to hVrriedly vacate their homes to
avoid being cremated- They left behind
all their earthly belongings including
many tiny eggs on which the mother
birds had been setting for a week or
more IN proud anticipation of the coming
OF their fedglings.
The Spsrrows. after being driven from
their home by the fire and smoke,
perched on a nearby point OF vantage
and set up chatter and chirping that evil
denced their indignation. The coming OF
the firemen with their hose and the
splash of water failed to drive them from
the scene. The blaze did $50 damage to
the building.

SHACKLETON RELATES
THRILLING STORIES
Adventures ofAntsrctie Explorer Hold
Local Audiences Spellbound.

Few stories OF human endurance, OF
courage and fortitude have ever thrilled
two Washington audiences as did those
told by Sir Ernest shackleton. the Ant
arctic explorer. in Continental Memorial
Hall yesterday afternoon and evening
before 5000 members Of the National Geo.
graphic Society.
The hardships, the hair-breadth es-
capes, the suffering and the final rescue
OF the Shackleton expedition of l914-l7,
were related with the utmost simplicity
and modesty yet with graphic aid COM
polling realism, heightened by frequent
flashes Of dry humor.
Setting sail for the South Pole on the
very day that England declared war
against Germany, misfortune seemed to
mark the expedition for it's own from the
day that the ship Endurance reached the
Weddell sea, for there was no summer
in the Antarctic in 1914. The vessel was
soon caught in the Ice and finally crush
ed TO pieces, the fragments sinking from
view In 1900 fathoms OF water where the
charts declared there was land.
Then came a voyage of unexampled
hardship on an island of ice Time and
again the foe would open up forcing the
men to fee for their lives. On one oc-
casion the Ice opened Immediately under
the main tent and two Of the men were
engulfed in the icy sea, one managing to
climb out himself and the other, tied UP
IN his sleeping bag, was pulled out Just
as the ice jaws closed again. Ten sec
onds more and he would have been
ground to death.
The most amazing feature OF the story
told by the explorer was the account of
the S0O-mile voyage in n 22-foot boat
through a winter sea in search for aid
for the twenty-five marooned on Eleph-
ant Island. The lecture was illustrated
with remarkable stereopticon lantern
slides. Gilbert Fl. Grosvenor, director OF
the society. introduced the speaker.

U. S. STOPPING u-RoATs
Lloyd George Says We Are Sealing
Their Doom

London, May 25.-Premier Lloyd
George on announcing in the house OF
commons today that more effective
blows had been dealt against subma-
rines in the last three weeks than dur.
ing any corresponding period of the
war, paid tribute to the assistance
given by the American navy, saying
I'VE owe very considerable debt
of gratitude to the great American
people for the effective assistance
they have rendered and the craft they
have placed at our disposal Now that
the American nation is in the war, it
is easier to make arrangements for
the protection of our mercantile ma
rine than it was before"
The premier's statement on subma-
rine warfare was altogether the most
satisfactory heard in England in many
months. 1T is much more difficult,
he said "for me to give a public am
swer on this than on any other topic.
It is very difficult for me to give infor-
.aation without to certain extent re-
vealing things which we had better
keep to ourselves. All can say is
that we are making substantial prog
ress.
During the last three weeks or
month we have dealt more effectively
with the submarines than during any
corresponding period of the war. This
is true OF this week as well as of the
preceding weeks. There is no doubt
the effect will be made manifest in a
considerable reduction of our shipping
losses.

THRIFT IN EARLY LIFE.
That Was the Start Of the Fortunes Of
Our Greatest Fiaarciers.

The early life of the great builders.
the self made iinanciers of this coun-
try, shows the early cultivation OF the
saving habit.
With few exceptions our Rockefel-
lers, Hills. Harrimans. are men who
endured great privations to save their
first few hundreds or thousands of dol
lars.
But in the use of these savings these
great men of business seemed most
reckless.
Each in turn stakcd his all on little
known and decidedly shaky PROPOSE
ton and stuck with 1t until he won
out.
Rockefeller put his few hundreds,
saved from a bookkeeper's salary, into
making a start in the oil business,
business so unknown at that time, so
full of failures, that it was with the
utmost difficulty he was able to Dor
row any additional funds when in des-
perate need
James j.. IIill staked hif few saw
ings, scraped together from his work
as a dock laboter aud clerk, on well
nigh bankrupt railroad, on which the
experienced Gnanclers of his day
would scarcely lend al penny.
Ford staked his own savings on
building gas engine and small car,
of which it was the motive power.
When he was ready TO build HIS first
cars there is no record Of the banks or
the big iinancierS OF Ills day offering to
furnish the funds to gather together
the organiza ton aud build the neces
sary factory 70 make aud market his
product. On the contrary. lis enter
prise was so poor risk that the few
thousands necessary to get his first
start came from wage Gamers and
small business men. the class who no
doubt were considered 'plkers." in
vesling In a business which. had the
so called financial authorities paid any
attention TO it ut all. they would have
pronounced highly speculative.
Yet these and the hundreds of other
successful enterprises that have built
immense corporations and made mil
lions and millionaires are tho kind OF
investments that appeal most TO the
optimistic progressivcness of the Amer
lean INVESTOR Industrial Department.
