THE COOLEST TOWN IN THE

In Nature, DR.. Ham gives an in
teresting account of the winter tenn
perature of Werchojansk (Siberia),
deduced from several years observa-
ton. The town, which lies in the
valley of the Jana, about nine feet
above the level of the river, in latitude
Ga degrees "a minutes N, longitude
l33 degrees 81 minutes E., and at a
height of about $50 feet above the
sea, has the greatest winter cold that
is known to exist upon the globe.
Monthly seasons of - So degrees F.,
occur even in December, a mean tenn
perature which has been Observed no.
where else in the polar regions; and
minima of 10 degrees are. usual for
the three winter months December
February. In the year 1886, March
also had a minimum III degrees, and
during that year December and Jan.
uary never had a minimum above -
t76 degrees, while in January, 1885,
the temperature of-89 degrees was
recorded. These extreme readings are
hardly credible, yet the Thermometers
have been verified at the St. Peters
burg Observatory. To add to the
misery of the inhabitants, at some sea
sons the houses are inundated by the
overflow of the river. The yearly
range of cloud is characteristic of the
climate; in the winter season the mean
only amounts to about three-tenths in
each month.
