Maryville, Cal.—Finding of the bodies of a huge eagle and a mountain ram on Table mountain in Butte county revealed a desperate battle to the death between the great bird and the mountain goat, in which each was actuated by love for their young. The eagle, according to mountaineers, three days ago seized a small kid from the ram's herd to feed her small eaglets in their nest high on top of the mountain. Returning on a similar mission the ram attacked the eagle and the pair battled to the death.
