Exhausted Land Birds
Find Haven at Sea

New \ ork, and stayed on boun
until she docked in Liverpool, whoi

ably from the north Atlantic statei
to the warm lands bordering on tin
Caribbean. Now many of then
again are free, but in England
thousands of inflos from their des

the questions of interested passen
gers as to whether the birds would
nil endeavor to reach their summer
haunts in the West Indies, or jolt
the robins and linnets of Engl ant
In their winter flight to southeri
Prance and northern Africa.
The great flock, several thousand
in number, settled on the Scythia's
decks when the steamer was about
40n miles from the American shoro
and transformed her into a floating
aviary. Wild canaries, robins, lin
nets, thrushes, sand pipers and
juncos, fluttered around the decks,
perched on the rigging, and oven
penetrated the lounges and engine
room. The passengers and crew cared
for them, giving them warmth, food
and shelter, but even so many oj
the smaller birds died from exhaus
tion. Three owls and a score of
pigeons were easily captured. <
Old sea travelers say they never
have known birds to alight before
in such largo numbers on a single
ship.
