Sparows to the Rescue.

News of a remarkable case of bird
intelligence comes from Manchester,
London Tit-Bits states.
Several people ut the AsSizes noticed
the peculiar behavior of a sparrow
which was leaping from one OF the
chimneyS and then falling to the
roof as though injured, but nobody~ap-
peared to suspect that the bird was /"
prisoner.
On opening the court the next day
tlie> attention of the officials was at
tracted by the excited chirping of IA
number of other sparrows, and il was
seen that the original sparrow was
still fiuttering feebly on the roof.
In few minutes the watchers
realized that the newcomers were feed
ing the exhausted bird and several
crumbs of bread and biscuits fell 10
the ground.
Ladders were obtained and an at
tendant climbed to the roof and found
that the legs of the sparrow were
held fast by a piece Of thread, the
other end of which was entagIed in
the bric6work. 1t was quickly re-
leased and after being given crumbs
and water was set free to join it's
fellows.
