THOSE LIGHTS AGAIN
ATTRACT NOTICE
Brilliant Eyanescent Orbs Are Seen
Nightly In The Northern
Sky

Those brilliant evanescent lights in
the northeastern sky that were noticed
for the first time on Tuesday night.
were again plainly visible. Wednesday
night and last night.
Residents of the city, but especial
ly those of Arundel-on-the-B Bay, have
watched these bright lights nightly
for the last several nights. They ap-
pear in the northeastern sky shortly
after 8 o'clock. Three of them can
be discerned at intervals, but one
seems brighter than the rest They
appear to be large globules that at
brief intervals burst into flame.
Persons have watched them with
interest at Arundel as they appear and
reappear, night after night, directly
over the point at Bay Ridge that juts
out into the Chesapeake Bay.
The following explanation has been
given of these lights. which are said
to emanate from Aberdeen:
In making tests with heavy caliber
mortars usch things as starbOmbs are
utilized. These funny little things are
equipped with silk parachutes and
Httu INTO luE air. he HTlnS lBnlNtS
a preparation in them and the stars
burn steadily, while the parachute
keeps them somewhat stationary.
Then the large guns are fired and the
course of the shells and speed are
marked by the light of the artificial
star. These stars then float about un-
til they are finally extinguished and
then descend. Their average height
level is about 1890 feet
Another similar device is a para
chute arrangement which is sent up
by rocket and which is a signal for
the artillery from the infantry. These
lights are also vari-colored.
''In the absence of scientific explana-
ton, this theory may be accepted, es-
pecially since the boys now at Fort
Howard. Baltimore, see them very
often floating their way from the
Aberdeen grounds"

Arundel Sand And Gravel
Company Asking Help
BUILD CONCRETE SHIPS

The New York and Philadelphia
capitalists, who are seeking to acquire
the frontage of the Anne Arundel Sand
and Gravel Company on the south side
of the Spring Gardens, went to Wash
ington yesterday instead of renewing

the company. The object of the visit
to Washington was to lay the whole
proposition before the War Industries
Board The visitors were given a
hearing by the board, but they re-
ceived no assurances of approval of
their project. On the other hand they
were not discouraged in the promotion
of their enterprise
When the hackers of the new enter
prise return to Baltimore and present
assurances of the backing Of the War
Industries Board they will receive en-
couragement at the hands of the Anne
Arundel Sand and Gravel Company
in advancing S3.0O0,000. the sum asked
for by the promoters as an addition to
the $10,000,000 or more which they are
willing to invest in the enterprise.
Plans for the enterprise have al
ready been drawn up. They are for
mulated on the extensive yards of the
Bush Shipbuilding Company in Brook
lyn, which are among the most exten-
sive in the world. The building of
concrete ships is among the projected
enterprises.
Directors OF the Anne Arundel Sand
and Gravel Company are anxious that
the would-be purchasers of their shore
frontage shall secure the cooperation
of the railroad companies by which CO.
operation side tracks will be built into
the area to be developed. The plans
included the building of concrete ships.
