DAM AGREEMENT HIT. The Senate Irrigation committee yes- terday reached a tentative agreement on the principal provisions of Boulder Dam legislation, but almost immediately it received a setback when Senator Ashurst, Democrat. of Arizona, refused to accept the terms applying to his State. The agreement was on the basis of that reached at Denver last Summer, under which California would have re- ceived 4,600,000 acre feet of water. Sen- ator Ashurst objected to this allocation of water on the grounds that it would not give his State a sufficient amount of water for irrigation purposes. W. K. Thomas to Speak. Wilbur K.

MOVIES ARE SHOWN OF YOUNG EAGLES Pictures Taken 14 Feet From Huge Nest Displayed to National Geographic Society. Motion picture studles of young eagles, taken from a blind only 14 feet from their huge nest in Northern Scot- land, were shown to members of the Nationfll Geographic Society last night at the Washington Auditorfum by Capt C. W. R. Knight of England. The nest, made of a tangle of twigs, was six feet long and four feet wide. On it the mother eagle dropped game which she caught in the surrounding country. As many as nine hares were on the nest at once in addition to grouse and other small birds. A surprising feature dis- closed by the pictures was the gentle- ness with which the great mother bird fed her young. This was in striking contrast to the rough methods shown by a mother wren in forcing food down the throats of her tiny children. Capt. Knight's pictures showed sev- eral nests of golden eagles with their two eaglets each. In one of these eyries | the female fledgling killed the smaller | male and threw him from the nest, but | in the others the two young birds grew up lil‘)tgclhe! and finally flew out into the worl The most remarkable feature of the film studies was the analysis of the SEE EXTRAORDINARY ANNOUNCEMENT flight of adult eagles slow motion pictures, These birds & wing-spresd f more than seven feet.
