A Wo1derfnI Ar city.

Many stories have been written about

been more interesting and curious than
that OF the Silent City mirage which
makes its appearance near the Pacific
glacier IN Alaska. The discovery Of this
wonderful mirage was made by the In
dians. who would tell Of the city which
was built in the clouds. The mirage
can be seen In the early part Of July
from 5 to 6 p. m. 1t rises from the side
Of the Pacific glacier. 1t first appears
like . heavy mist and soon becomes
clearer, and one can distinctly see the

to recognize the place. There IS no city

claim it is a city in Russia, others say

The story goes that when Allah de-

The Creator then took handful Of

But the horse complained against his
Maker. His neck was TOO short 10

march: his back had no hump TO steady
a saddle; his hoofs were sharp aud
sank deep into tie sand, and he added
many similar grievances.

The trajectory of a thing IS the path
Of a bullet or anything else passing
through the air from the gun 10 the
place where 1t strikes. Generally the
word is applied only to bullets and can
non balls. In shooting at an object
near at hand you aim point blank, be-
cause the bullet practically reaches the
target before it falls at all. but when
you lire at a distant object you must
aim above It. so that the bullet may
have room 10 fall and yet hit the object.
The desire OF every marksman is to get
a trajectory as hat as possible, so that
the bullet shall have no need of falling
very far. A fiat trajectory Is obtained
By Increasing the speed Of the bullets,
By diminishing their size and increas-
ing the powder charge.
