“That portion of the Hæmus range in which Menelaus is set is a very attractive scene on account of the bow shape of the mountains, and the situation of the bright crater just in the center of the bow. Menelaus and the streak from Tycho can be seen at Full Moon with no greater optical aid than that of a good binocular. On the edge of the ‘sea,’ off a lofty headland of the Hæmus chain, another lone little crater is visible, Sulpicius Gallus by name. It, too, is remarkable for its brilliant reflective power. Behind the mountains, directly back of Sulpicius Gallus, and lying in an upraised part of the _Mare Vaporum_, is a larger, and even brighter, crater ring than Menelaus. It is named Manilius, and is likewise a conspicuous object for a binocular at Full Moon. Below Sulpicius Gallus the Hæmus Mountains broaden out and assume a curious somber tone, until, in the form of a rough plateau, they blend with the wide-expanded southwestern slopes of the Apennines. The latter rise gradually to the chain of huge peaks fronting the _Mare Imbrium_. They contain one notable crater ring named Marco Polo, which lies just above a great square _massif_, which breaks the narrow chain of the illuminated summits of the Apennines. The precipitous front of this range appears very brilliant in the afternoon sun, for here again we have a photograph made after the time of Full Moon. The end of the Apennines touching the strait, of which I have previously spoken, terminates with a high cape called Mount Hadley. In the strait, off this cape, is an array of small mountain peaks, which must have been islands, if the lunar ‘seas’ were once true seas. “Across the strait, on the northern side, stand the lunar Caucasus Mountains. They run out to a point in a long, irregular, broken ridge. The distance from Mount Hadley across the strait to the projecting point of the Caucasus range is about 50 miles. The islands narrow the main opening to a width of 30 miles. In strict fact the Caucasus range is not continuous. The point fronting the strait is, in reality, the end of a large irregular ‘island,’ with intricate channels separating it from the mainland. Still farther north the photograph shows a broad valley severing the mountain range from side to side. The main mass of the Caucasus continues northward to the great ring mountains Eudoxus and Aristoteles. In the center of the range, opposite the lower corner of the _Mare Serenitatis_, is an irregular ring plain, Calippus. West of this the mountains break down in great precipices to the level of a plain that might be compared with one of the ‘parks’ of Colorado. Beyond this, in the shape of a broad mass of hills, it skirts the border of the _Mare Serenitatis_ for nearly 200 miles to a sharp promontory which shuts off the _Lacus Somniorum_ on one side from the _mare_. West of Aristoteles and Eudoxus the mountain mass extends to a curious sharp-angled plain, which it skirts on the north and south.
