ALASKA'S "SILENT CITY,"
Wonderful Mirage That Is Said

Wonderful Mirage That Is Said to
Have Been Photographed.
One Of the best stories regarding
mirage is that told in Alaska concern
ing the appearance Of a city In the sky.
This silent city" IS said to have ac-
tually been photographed. and, though
there are skeptcs, enough people claim
to have seen it to make the story inter
esting.
The first account Of this city Of 81.
fence" was told by prospector named
Willoughby. he was miner IN Cali
fornia and went to Alaska, where be
settled in the vicinity Of Muir glacier.
In fact, It was Willoughby who pilot.
ed Professor Muir when he ascended
the immense ice field which now bears
the scientists name. Willoughby al
ways told the story Of this city which
appeared In the sky with much ear
nestness, and be carried a photograph
which be said he took after several
visits to the spot whence the vision
could be seen.
When Willoughby first went to Alas
Ia natives told him that at certain
times Of the year when the days were
longest and the atmospheric conditions
right they saw suspended in the heaV-
ems a town with streets, houses and
many different kinds Of buildings. SO
impressed was he that he engaged the
Indians to take him to the place where
the city could be seen, and in their ca
noes travelled to the spot
After several attempts Willoughby
at length saw this silent city," as the
natives called it He said that the at
mosphere was so clear that mountains
many miles away seemed near and
that as he gazed the outlines of a city
gradually assumed shape, and build
ing after building came to view. He
distinctly saw tall Office buildings,
churches and spires, houses and eV-
ery indication tn the city was In
habited; but, though no saw It several
times, he could never Sctect a human
being. A halo Of light seemed to Gov
er all. As he gazed the vision faded
and gradually receded. So convinced
was he that he was looking at the
mirage of an actual city that he made
records to show that he had been on
the exact spot whence the picture ID
the sky could be seen.
Wi!loughby's photograph was cruoe,
but enough could be discerned to ieao
persons 10 assert that it was q we"
Of Bristol, England, many thousand
miles away. WIloughby told bis story
IN 1888 or thereabouts- Since then sew
eraI persons have said that they saw
the mirage. In every instance the
mirage was surrounded by a halo OF
light which poured soft glow on rool
and waIlA-New. York Sun.

the age of thirty-one, he was made

Andrews sailed on the Titanic, GER
tain, as be wrote to his wife, that the
ship would "do the old finn credit" a
survivor has told how, after the COLI
sion, Andrews busted himself with
helping women into the boats and d.
rectng the rescue work in other ways
This is the story Of his last moments:
One met him bareheaded and carry
ing q hfebelt on his way to the bridge,
perhaps to bid the captain goodby'
Later an assistant steward. saw him
standing alone In the smoking room,
his arms folded over his breast and the
belt lying on a table near him. The
steward asked him. "Aren't you going
to have a try for 1t, Mr.. And7ews?'
BE never answered or moved Just

Others saw him few minutes before

He Obeyed Orders.

Sir Henry Roscoe tells this Of the
scientist Faraday and his assistant,
Sergeant Anderson: Anderson was
the sole assistant to Faraday and OF
course was utterly uneducated in scien-
tifc matters, but he could obey orders,
which is not always characteristic OF
an educated man. One day Anderson
was told by Faraday to keep stirring
q pot containing some chemicals over
q fire until he returned, Faraday being
In the habit Of going upstairs to tea in
his rooms and coming down directly
afterward to work in the laboratory
during the evening. For some reason
he was prevented from coming down
again and forgot that he had told An
derson to watch the pot. On coming
down the next morning he found An
derson still stirring the pot, having
been at it the whole night and thus
carrying out the order which was Civ
en- him"

Horse Of Representatives.

We spent the first week in organiz-
ing.
Our opinion is, we are going to have
session OF constructive Legislation.
There are few members who seem
TO like strife and never miss an oppor-
tuniry 70 stir il up, but these are fast
losing the respect of the others and will
have to change their tactics or lose out
altogether.
Taxese Yes and large increase is
expected.
The last general assembly gave the
board of directors of the State Hospital
for the Insane the right to spend some
thre hundred thousand dollars on build
inss, expecting the asylum bond issue
to take care of the debt. This bond
issue failed of passage so the state will
have to increase the tax levy about one
mill to pay this debt made By the last
session, and this session cannot be held
responsible for this increase in taxes.
Mr.. Eall's compulsory education bill
carries one hundred thousand dollar
appropriation and many other bills will
call for appropriations as large and
larger.
The State institutions are asking for
increase appropriations. All this ap-
preparation meaus more taxes. We
will have an increase as result OF the
work Of the last session and an increase
as a result OF this session coming both
together will make it felt the more.
We expect to have bill to prohibit
the continuous appeal from the decis-
sion of the court as has been done in
the Bethune case.
Mr.. Mitchum's bill is, We believe,
the proper measure if passed to take
care of the trouble arising from the
compulsory education law, in fact will
do away with the necessity for compul'
sorry attendance law.
The Torrers system will come up
and we will fight it hard.
