The Eagle and the Sparrow (1915)
The "eagle" lives amid wealth and swoops down upon the unwary. The "sparrow" lives in poverty and cannot keep his wife and little one from want. The "eagle" moves in high society and steals the jewels and money from rich homes. The "sparrow" does not wish to steal, but is driven to desperation by hunger. He selects the home of the "eagle" for his first depredation, and while in the dwelling the "eagle" comes home with his prey in the shape of a valuable necklace. The "eagle" discovers the "sparrow" and is about to hand him over to the authorities when the "sparrow's" plea touches his heart, and he gives him food and money for another start in life. Later the "eagle" sees the happy results of his kindliness. Conscience-stricken, he throws away the implements of his nefarious profession and resolves to lead a better life.
