noon, in the western heavens and was
a clear and well-dedned picture of a
city, with all its buildings so distinctly
visible that their different STYLES could
be easily distinguished. Owing to the
great distance Of the objects thus re-
tiected however, the steeples of the
churches and the walls of the houses
were slightly inclined. The image was.
of course, inverted, but was life sized,
for the reflection enormously magnitied
the picture though leaving it exquisite
ly sharp, thus causing it to present a
remarkably realistic appearance Of a
large and populous city suspended in
the air, or falling through it, for an
amazing feature of the phenomena was
that, while the city itself was so clear
liz defined. there was no reflection
whatever of the ground on which it
stood.
Though at an angle Of forty-hve de-
grees on the are OF the heavens. the
phantom appeared to be only a few
hundred yards above the earth, and the
ignorant portion of our population be-

The third week Of the Montana racing
tournament has ended, but 10 far there
have been no remarkable speed develop

da has been one of interest and some Renu-
inc sport has been witnessed. Probably
the event of the week in the raining events
was the performance of Olympia in the
run on Thursday. The
shorts were again made happy in this race,
and they really have been very fortunate
during the entire week at Anaconda.

The amount Of water used from the water
works in this city Is a matter Of surprise to
all who visit this city. In other places the
amount OF water is restricted, but here pat
rons are allowed to use all they want from
tho abundance on hand. In consequence
water is kept in motion all the time in the
yards and upon the streets, greatly to the
comfort of the citizens and pleasure of the
households who are thus permitted to beau
tify their yards to an unlimited extent.
Notwithstanding that great deal Of water
il used, over twice a. much runs over the
headgate to the ranches below the reser-
voir. The almost general use of this spring
water has demonstrated the fact that it is
great deal more healthful than the we'll
