HOUSE COLLAPSES AT WARWICK
HELPLESS MAN IN A BOAT
Hearing groans near the shore at
West Lafayette last night, Thomas
Whallen of Mnnayunk who was taking
a lone trip in a steam launch, discov-ered
a man lying fiat on his stomach
In a rowboat which had drifted Into
me weeds. The man said he was suf-fering
with cramps and hnd been drlft-ng
slowly down from Spring Mill, hav-ing
been unable to move on account of
ine pain.
Whallen look the man to Spring Mill
where he was relieved by drinking

thought that this was the cause of Its
ultimate destruction.

business and has given his entire life
to tne study of birds.
Some of the richest residents of the
county are among his customers. Many
of his customers are now abroad and
their birds In his care until their
return. The old man Is afraid he will
have to settle for the bird's lives and
Is grently worried about the condition
