persons climb the stone steps which lead up to the
second story from the foot of Beecher's statue in

entrance almost inaccessible. To reach II tlee

SMOKE FROM THE SEA.

One Of the peculiar phenomena of the Arctic
regions is "sea smoke" Explorers tell OF a
steam as If from a boiling kettle which rises
from the water when the temperature is - de-
grees below zero. AT 80 degrees the snow and
human bodies emit this vapcr. which changes
into tiny icicle particles which fiji the air and
make light noise like the rustic of silk. At
80 degrees tree trunks burst with a loud re-
port, rocks break up and streams of smoking
water flow from great cracks in the earth s
surface, knives break in cutting butter and
lighted cigars go out by contact with the ice
upon the beard.-Phiadelphi Record.
