The Lincoln Globe, preparatory

METEOROLOGICAL
Cold Winters in Europe.

The people in this country are dis
posed 70 complain Of extremes in the
I economy OF weather, yet when we
take into consideration the great ex-
tremes that the people OF other eoun-
tries have had to pass through, Ee
are ready 20 conclude that OF all peO-
/ pie We should be the most than kfuI.
For illustration, We will mention 8
few facts which We copy from ancient
records
In $50, A. D.. the Euxius was fro
zen over. In 558 the Black Sea was
covered with ice, and in 76S the ice
was said 20 be eight feet thick.
In s2I the Elbe. Seine and Danube
were frozen over during four weeks.
In 1923 the Mediterranean Sea was en-
entirely frozen over. In I4O5 Tsmer-
lande made an incursion into China.
and lost his men, horses and esneIs
by the excessive cold. In I420 il was
80 cold in France thst Paris was al
most depopulatsd, and the animals
fed on the corpses in the streets. In
1893 snoE fell in Paris for forty dsys
and nights. IN 1870 the intense cold
continued three months, and all the
fruit trees Of Provence and Lzngeu-
doc were destroyed.
In 1907 it was 20 cold that cattle
frOzs IN their stalls, and the river
Siene could be crossed with heavy
carts.
In 1888 one-third Of the population
Of TOuraine died with hunger, and the
cold snap lasted thirteen weeks
17u9 was = win ter OF intense cold all
over Europe. The winter OF I740 was
also very cold. especially in Russia
1865 and l7s6y were also extremely
cold. Since the last year named the
winters were never so severe until
ISL, Is space OF - years. when
Europe experienced another severe
winter. Z.
