Lincoln story,

The Rev. Mr.. Alcott Of Elgin. Ills,
one of Abraham Lincoln's Springfield
acquaintances. tells of seeing him COM
ing away from church unusually early
one Sunday morning. "Thc sermon
could not have been more than half
way through" says Mr.. Alcott. His
son, Tad was slung across his left
arm like pair Of saddlebags, and
Lincoln was striding along with long
and deliberate steps toward home.
ION one of the street corners he en-
countered group of his fellow towns
men. Lincoln anticipated the question
which was about to be put by the
group. and, taking his figure Of speech
from practices with which they were
only too familiar, said, Gentlemen,
entered this colt, but he kicked around

HAS A VARIED CLIMATE.
Curious Meteorological Conditions
of the Island of sashalien.

Curious Meteorological Conditions
of the Island of Saghalien.
Saghalien, off the eastern coast Of
Siberia, presents very curious anom-
ally of climate. The island is> bathed
by two cold ocean currents, and in
winter nothing protects it against the
Icy northwest winds coming from ST.
IBERIA. At the sea level the snow falls
continually and stays ON the ground
till the end Of May, and the seashore is
very cold. Farther inland, however,
especially as we go higher. up. the
climate is modified-just the opposite
to what is observed elsewhere. 1t has
often been observed in Siberia and in
central Europe that in winter the cold
Is greater in the plains and the valleys
and that the highlands have sensibly
milder temperature; 1t is as If the
denser cold air accumulated in the low
lands.
The cold air accumulates in the low
regions OF the island, and on the coast
the higher regions have more elevat-
ed temperature. So 1t happens that the
lower parts have an arctic vegetation,
while the intermediate attitudes have
the vegetation of temperate zone,
sometimes subtropical. The birch, the
pine, the fir, abound in the low regions
and form often impenetrable forests,
but toward the center of the island ap-
pear bamboos, hydrangeas, azalias and
other plants that one Is greatly sur
prised to meet, and whose presence
can be explained only by the altogether
abnormal climatic conditions of the
island. (EngD Chronicle.
