Show FOUND IN AN EAGLE'S NEST. Benlde two Young Kiiglnm were Found Chicken, Lambs and Utile 1'lgs. A few days ago two men were hunting in the mountains near Malad City. They noticed a broad-winged broad-winged eagle circle round high in the air and then, descending, light on the summit of a dizzy peak. Instantly was set up a Babel of loud screeches and shrill screams: they knew they had found an eagle's nest full of young. Ascending the ragged crags they reached the nest with difficulty. The mother, a ponderous bird, darted off with a frightened yell. Two large unwieldy babe eagles were found in the nest, a huge affair, about three feet in diameter and several yards in circumference. cir-cumference. One hopped out ; fell over the precipice and was killed. The other was captured and brought to Brigham City, where it is now in the possession of J. P. Jacobsen. In the great nes-t were also found a number of dead chickens, lambs and young pigs, carried there by the old birds as food for their young. |
