Power Of Man to Endure

One who took part in a tele-
graphic expedition in Siberia
writes as follows: Il didn't be-
lieve that it would be possible
for me to lie out in the snow,
without shelter, in a temperature
Of even 20 deg. below zero, but
| have done it once in so deg.
below, and repeatedly in 45 deg.
One Of Bush's parties, In Feb
ruary OF last year, passed the
night on an open, barren steppe,
with their spirit thermometer
standing78 deg. below zero, or
100 below the freezing point.
Quicksilver they nodded into
solid bullets with four minutes
exposure to the air. 1t is true
they did not dare to go to sleep
that that night, but | believe
that, had they been properly fit
ted out with heavy furs and
wolf-skin, sleeping bags to tie
over the head, they might have
done it with perfect safety.

ture of 30 deg, 40 deg. and Is

COMPLICATED.

A man In Arkansas is the VIC
tim of a complicated series of mar
riages and divorces. He supposed
his first wife was dead, and then
he married a second one. Two
months afterward the first wife
appeared upon the scene. She
had caused a report of her death
to be circulated TO get rid Of her
husband, but on hearing Of his
speedy marriage she couldn't stand
it, and so came back to plague him.
The second wife then instituted
suit for divorce, pending which
the first wife died. Supposing his
second wife had got her decree OF
divorce, he married a third wife.
But the lawyer of the second wife,
it seems. had failed to enter the
final decree in the case, and on
the unfortunate husbands third
marriage. wife number two had
her suit discontinued, and claimed
the luckless creature for her own.
This disheartened him, and he
attempted to run away. But pro-
ceedings were Instituted against
him for bigamy, an indictment
was found. and be was arrested
and held to bail. Poor fellow!
