NEBRASKA MIRAGES.
City of Tall Buildings Seen in the
Air-Duration, Etc.
)r. Charl- A. Oats. of Seward.
de-crihes a mirage he saw recently
near Gresham. Nebraska. It was ob
servable f(,r fully a minute. He says:
"Suddenly, while looking to the west,
I saw a strange city rise up from the
open plain and become stationary at
the base of the horizon. It was a city
I had never seen before or heard of.
How large it was I cannot say, but it
covered an extensive tract of ground.
In the central part there were im
mense brick buildings. from six to
ten stiries high. The walls were
pierced with many windows, all of
which had shutters attached to them.
There was a mark in thecenter of the
city. and I saw people walking and
d1riving about. They were dressed
much as the people of all large cities
are. \t the outskirts of the city were
located large and small residences.
! did nt .see any street cars or rail-:
way trains. This is the second mirage
I have seen and the most wonderful."
The doct.Ir is of the c,inion that
the city he saw does not belong to!
the United States. He thinks that
perhaps it war a Canadian city, or
one located in zome foreign coun
try.
A short time ago another mirage
was seen in the western part of the
state at a point midway between Har
vard and Aurora on the open
table land. It showed in bold
belief against the sky, where it
touched the earth to the west,
a modern city of perhaps ioo,
ooo population. To the south, was a
small new village, judging from the
unpainted houses. The village ap
peared to be an addition to the city,
buildings exteuding from one to the
other. It must have been an early
morning scene. for no one was seen
about. but what appeared to be
smoke rose from the chimneys. The
streets of the city appeared to be
paved, but no street car tracks were
discernible. This mirage lasted only
about thirty seconds and passed away
as rapidly as it came.
Late in August, 1903, a mirage ap
peared near Sutton. located about
fifty miles east of the "Aurora mirage
district," that depicted a city of large
proportions. yet foreign in architec
ture. The buildings nearly all had
dome-shaped roofs, indicating that
the reflection came from the far east.
No living objects were seen. It
glimmered for a moment and was
gone. Whether it was a "city of the
dead" or a night scene will remain a
mystery.
Photographers have discussed try
ing to get a picture of the appari
tions, but none have succeeded. No
one knows when thcy are coming. al
though it is generally during the
morning h-''rs.
Little Maggie had been to the den
tist's to have a tooth extracted, and
this is how she explained the pro
ceedings:
"The man grabbed hold with a pair
of big tongs and pulled his best, and
just before it killed me the tooth
came out."
"Mamma," said five-year-old El
mer, who was tired of staying in the
house, "come out in the back yard
and play a game of foot ball with me."
"I can't play, dear," replied the
mother.
"Huh!" exclaimed the little fellow,
scornfully. 'That's what comes of
having a woman for a mother."
"Now, Harry," said a lady to a
small guest after dinner, "wouldn't
you like to take some of the plum
pudding home to your sister?"
"No, thank vou." replied Harry,
who was improving his opporitunity,
"I've got about all I can carry now."
"Marriage is a lottery." said the
melancholy person.
"Well." answered Miss Cayenne,
"it seems to be a pretty even game at
that. I never saw a married man or,
woman who thought they had drawn
a blank who didn't believe in their
heart the partner of their joys and
sorrows had secured the capital
prize."
"But." she protested, "Adam was
n't contented without a wife."
"Perhaps not," rejoined the old
bachelor, "but at that stage he didn't
