IF various lengths. The color WAS markedly
uniform and distinct and bright. Within this
arch was another, equally complete, of creamy
'r smoky white light, with MARGINS, however,
very irregular and distinctly defined. These
NO aurora arches beautihed the heavens in
heir entirety Tor some little time, when the
4 -e-colored one was broken in the apex by the
Intervention of a narrow stream of the smoky
. bite light. and soon after the whole arch van
