The Cnpe Charles Light.

The new lighthouse at Cape Charles
has been completed and the new light
for its tall tower of 1870 feet, above
mean high water, flashed across the
horizon for the first time Thursday
evening. The tower stands on the
westerly side of the southerly part OF
Smith Island, Cape Charles, about
three quarters Of a mile from the old
Cape Charles light and north side OF
the entrance to Chesapeake Bay.
The new light consists OF u series OF
intensely brilliant white flashes,
worked in a group of four and a
group of five every thirty seconds,
thus: Four flashes and eclipse OF
three seconds, and five flashes with
an eclipse of about sixteen seconds,
the interval between any two success
sive flashes being about one and a
half seconds.
The operations of the new light
were watched with great deal Of in.
terest from Virginia Beach. The old
steady revolving light thai formerly
illuminated the horizon was missed,
and the new, quick, brilliant, fan
like flashes were a novelty. The
night was dark and this brought out
more wildly, and with greater effe ct,
the flashes and eclipses of the new
light. 1t is said that the light may
be seen distance of 194 miles in
clear weather. Judging from its
brilliancy last Thursday night, and
comparing the distance from Cape
Charles to Virginia Beach, the light
could be seen at greater distance
than is stated.
The group flashes-four and five
indicate the official number of the
light-45, as it is said to be the pur.
pose of the Government to change all
the coast lights to this system OF
groups and flashes, so as to indicate
more direct and thoroughly than ever
to the vessels at sea their location
The new light house is an octagonal
pyramidal iron skeleton, with central
Shaft entirely white.-Norfolk Virgin.
