It would appear that onoof tho enthusiastic climbers of Mount Hood, In Oregon, mado tho statement that from tho summit ho saw tho ponkof Mount Shasta, 870 miles to tho southward. Of courso ho was doubted, but principally boenuso the cu^vaturo of tho earth would prevent the Intervlslblllty of tho peaks, ami so an ap peal was made to a young officer of the United States engineering corps, who com puted, .tho distance at which these peaks would bo IntcrvlslblQ. Mount Hood Is given as 11,768 foot above tho sea lovel and Mount Shhstn as 14,440, and tho dis tance on- tho latost charts Is 278^ miles. By his computation tho “total visible dis tance” wus 277 mllos, which gave “on® mil© to spare” over his assumed distance of 270 miles, upon which Tlio Oregonian and some of t,ho Now York papers have as sumed the Intervlslblllty of tho peaks, and that tho mountain climber was right In Ids declaration of seeing Mount Shasta. That Is all very pretty, Professor David son says, if tho ocean Intervened betwoon tho two peaks, when tho line of Intends!- blllty would bo tangent to tho surfneo of tho 6ca nt a point nchrer to Mount Hood, but imfortunutoly tho surfoco betwcon theso two poaks Is tho baokbone of tho Cascado rango of mountains, and tho In- tervislblllty 1b nn nbsolutophysical Impos sibility. Wo must turn to Alaska If wo e&pcct to obtain tho longest lines of in- tervisibility, bccauso the great mountain peaks like Ellas and Logan of tho 8t. Ellas rango Immediately domlnato n curv ing coast lino. Tho greatest authenticated dlstanco at which theso great master peaks have been vislblo from soa was by Captain H. E. Nichols of tho United Btntes navy when commanding tho United States gun boat Plata. Ho was close Upon Middleton Island, off tho approaches to Prlnco Wil liam sound, in a well determined position, when ho had a vlowot Mount Ellas to tho easi northeast and Mount Wrangell to tho northward. Tho former was distant 187 statuto mllos and the latter 218 mllos. It may havo been possible that Mount Kilns was only purfcof tho mass ho saw, and Mount Lo'gan, 20 miles to tho north by east from Mount Kilns and 19,612 feet elevation, was tho summit of tho vislblo moss. In this onao tho distance was 204 miles. It may bo mentioned that tho consensus of opinion of men who havo been through Alaska and havo seen Mount Wrangell is that tho highest mountain mass is just under 02 degrees latitude und between 147 and 148 degrees longitude, or 100 miles west northwest from Wrangell. This would put tho unnamed Mount Wrangell, Mounts Kilos, Fnlrwcnthor, Cook, Crldon, La Pcrouie, etc., of tho Mount Ellas range In one lino extending through nearly 600 mllos.--San Francisco Bulletin.
