AIRSHIPS APPARENTLY LOOK
ING FOR SOMETHING
Mysteriously Holering OTer
And Villages
A number of cities sad towns in
tbe United States appear to bare
been haunted of late by airships that
have here red over them during the
nights. These atrial visitors have
been seen in Deieware and New
Jersey, and also in Illinois, but so
far no town has been able to solve
the mystery, nor has any attack or
damage been reported from any
point. A night or two ago. a mys
terious aeroplane was seen hovering
over the Du Pont Powder Works at
Carney’s Point. X. J. on the Dele
ware River, but whence it came or
where it went has not been esta
blished. The Du Pont company can
give no reason for its presence.
Other towns in Deieware and New
Jersey report seeing a moving speck
in the sky that could be nothing else
than an aeroplane.
In northeast Illinois and Indiana
the mystery is still deeper. The
village of Clyde, IwL, reports an ap
parition in the night sky, a cirilmg
bobbing point of light which, in the
hours before dawn, haunts the alti
tudes above the town. Those who
have seen it believe it to be a night
fiver engaged in some mysterious
patrol duty which involves inspec
tion of the whole area covered by
Clyde. Argo and neighboring towns.
Among those who were startled
by its first appearance was H. L.
Rose, an engineer for the Chicago
railroad.
“I was working near Clyde that
morning about 3 o'clock. I was as
tonished to see a moving light in the
sky over the village- My first
thought was that it was a star,
but tbe regular course of its move
ments and its glow soon forced me
to abandon that theory. I called the
attention of my fireman to the sight
He was no more able to solve the
puiale than h
“Shea we first saw it, jt was well
tc the north of the village. It mo
ved rapidly southward, halted and
then went north again^jow asd 5hen
gliding to the east or west. From
time to time it dropped near the
and again ascended to great
altitude. The light which at first
looked blue changed to orange and
again to white.
“The night was too dark and the
too far away for either
my fireman or me to make out
whether the Light was part of the
equipment of an aeroplane. The only
satisfactory conclusion we could
reach, fcowever.was that this must be
tbe case and that the flyer was
watcMng for something below.
“Wha; it might have been and
how he could have seen from such a
height I do not pretend to know.
But my fireman and I have each
other for proof that we were not the
-dims of an optica] iHuscn.

ABOUT US {
j ... Seattle, Washington,
February 21st-, 1916.
Principal Ketchikan High School,
Ketchikan,
Alaska.
Dear Sir:
Feeling a deep in- j
terest in Alaska affairs, the mem- '
bers of the University Sourdough !
, Club have followed carefully the
distress caused by the recent storms
and wish to extend their sympathy
and hope that you will soon see
bright spring weather.
THE SOURDOUGH CLUB
Of the University of Washington.
j
NOTE:—The above communica- j
tion received this morning by the °
principal of our school, Miss Xeita
| Mitchell, and signed by the Sour
’ dough Club of U. of W.. herewith 1
published is another evidence of the
peculiar idea that people outside ’
have of Alaska: which to them is i
just one bleak spot, all in the ex
treme north, where it is alt snow >
ice. bSiitards and mostly always
night They do not seem to grasp
j the idea that Ketchikan is only
two days from Seattle, though in
Alaska, and that to reach Nome
in winter would take six weeks or
at least two months, that as a mat
ter of fact, we have not suffered
the inconveience hero that Seattle
and the States of Washington and
Oregon have endured this winter,
and front accounts received the coast
of Washington has suffered more
loss by storms than we have. Of
' course we realise that Ketchikan is
especially favored in the way of
shelter and ha? not to contend with
the fierce Taku winds that Juneau
and Douglas have to endure to their
great discomfort and sometimes
consequences.
Query:—What we should like to
know now is whether or not any
member of the "Sourdough Club"
has ever lived in Alaska.
