Winter on Mt. Washington.
From the Hartford Times.

From the Hartford Times.
1t is known by investigation that
the climate of the summit of Mt.
Washington, New Hampshire, winter
and summer, corresponds very closely
to that of the lower third of Green
land. It's temperature, its gales, its
deficient fora (chiefy a scanty and
coarse sedge-like grass, and the Green
land sandwort) and it's very form
alton, of jagged, bare, forbidding
granite rocks, all correspond to the
Greenland situation. In that hyper.
borean realm, as on Mt. Washington,
q few scattering tufts of thin and
stunted sedge, and of Greenland sand
wort-which seems to be the searest
American approach to the ed lweiss
of the Alpine slopes-can be found, in
summer, struggling out of rocky clefts
having a handful of soil and a south
ern exposure. And the winter sit
uation of both localities appears to
be as closely alike as possible. Hence
it is interesting tonote that our CORE
spondent on the New England sum-
NIT, in his report Of the weather
for January, 1886, mentions five
gales which exceeded the scand-
ard velocity of 100 miles per hour,
and one of these registered 122 miles.
Such winds often blow away the cups
ofthe thermometer, or break the staff.
They far transcend anything known IN
the character of tornadoes in these
lower lands. We do not recall any
gale In Connecticut-not the famous
September Gales of 1915 and 1921,
nor the local tornado which destroyed
so many buildings in Wallingford-in
which the winds velocity probably
exceeded 80 or 50 miles per hour.
But on the most elevated point in
New England no month passes in
which these Connecticut figures are
notpexceeded; and it is no very un-
common experience, up there, to meet
with gales blowing at the rate of 40
or $50 miles per hour. In April three
years ago, a gale on Mt. Washington
blew at the appalling rate of 184
miles per hourl OF course the few
buildings on that bare. rocky summit
are securely bolted down with heavy
timbers, which meet and are locked
over the ridge, and bolted firmly into
the rocks below. To the two dwellers
in the signal station the question of
life or death is reduced to the simplest
terms, for it is merely u question
whether the building itself shall be
blown, not from its moorings, but
literally into pieces.

AN ODE TO A BRANp-NEw INFANT.

Alas, poor little kid,
How young and fresh you arei
You cannot chew your quid,
Nor smoke the vile cigar.
But you can lie in bed,
And below like a cali,
And wag your hairless head
Until you make us laugh.
And you can howl at night,
And make your poppy bound
From bed in costume light,
And tote you round andround.
And you can kick and scream,
And have the gripes and collie,
And wake us from our dream
With noises diabolic.
All frisky juvenile,
Though joyous now you be,
With mint and castor-oil,
And pap and catnip tea.
The time at length will come
When you must sup and git,'
And earn your daily crumb,
BY toll or trade or wit,
Just like the rest OF us.

He Attacks Two Women with an AK and
Sets Fire To- a Barn.
CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA, Oct. 2S,-0ne OF
the most terrible double tragedies ever
committed In Iowa occurred last evening
near the village OF Shueyville During the
absence Of farmer named Yerba and his
family his barn was discovered on fire by
Mrs. Joseph Navotny and Mrs John Lon
war, neighbors. They arrived on the
scene to fiud the barn aud granary con
eumed. fastening to the house, they
were met by farm hand named Martin
Sankoup, and when they attempted to en-.
ter he struck them both down with an ak,
crushing In their heads. BY this time
other nelghbors arrived. An effort was
made to capture Sankoup,' who hei
up stairs, ak in hand, and threat
ensd to kill any who approached.
Three young men after s severe struggle
mastered the murderer, and he was taken
20 q school-house, where he was bound
and guarded until fears of lynching in-
duced the officers TO remove the prisoner
to Iowa City. Sankoup Is about fifty
years OF age. He was 4 former resident
Of Shneyyille. About four years ago he
was struck by lightning and has never
fully recovered from the effects. He was
not considered dangerous, except when
under the influence OF liquor. He was
drunk when the crime was committed.
There was not the slightest cause for the
incendiarism or murder. The two women
are still alive, but cannot recover. Mrs.
Navotny ~ about forty years OF age, and
the mother OF large family. Mrs.
Lonlvar Is twenty-five, and has two small
children. The Bohemian citizens threaten
TO lynch Saloon-keeper Weber for selling
whisky to Sankoup.

purpose OF arranging and selecting some

house for short time while she was so
engaged, and on their return found that
she had been abducted. The opinion pre-

away by friends of the hotel keeper, who
will keep her confined until after the case
comes on for trial, and, she being absent,
acquittal will be the result.
