A mirage appear ed in the skv tn

A mirage appear ed in the sky to
the south of the city of Washing
ton yesterday afternoon. The mi
rage was as clear and distinct as If
painted with a gigantic brush on
the sky, and showed the dome of
the capitol building, surmounted
by the Goddess of Liberty, at a
point in the the heavens opposite
the side of the building. The sky
picture was vastly enlarged, cover
ing an immense area of the heavens
and the white dome was thrown in
sharp relief against the deep blue
of the upper atmosphere. The mi
rage lasted only seven minutes, aud
then did not fade away gradually,
but vanished as suddenly as it had
appeared. The close proximity of
the mirage to the object reflected is
considered remarkable by scientific
men.
