It is difficult for us to form any
conception of the degree Of cold
represented by the so degrees of
frost recorded from certain parts Of
Russia. Sir Leopold McClintock
tells how in one of his arctic expedi-
tons a sailor was foolish enough to
do some outdoor work at precisely
this temperature. His hands froze,
and when he rushed into the cabin
and plunged one of them into a ba-
sin of water so cold was the hand
that the water was instantly con-
verted into block of ice. At rs
degrees, DR.. Kane says, "the mus
tache and under lip form pendu-
Ious beads Of dangling ice. Put out
Sour tongue and it instantly freezes
to this icy crusting. Your chin has
q trick of freezing to your upper
Jaw by the kindly aid Of your beard.
MY eyes have often been so glued as
to show that even wink was un-

LUMBER BOAT
ARRIVES IN Port
Carries $4,000 Feet Of Lumber
and $4,000 Shingles.
Shooner George Locke Almost Reached
Tarpon Beach Wharf Yesterday After.
noon. but Ran on Sand Bar. Be- :
ing Lightered.

For the first time in two years,
schooner has entered BraZos de
Santiago Pass with a large cargo,
which is now heing lightered in the
Laguna Madre near the Brazos Pass
lighthouse, and being taken to the
wharf of the Padre Island Devel-
oprnent company at Tarpon Beach,
the cargo being consigned to that
company.
Carrying $4,000 feet of lumber
and IS, 900 shingles, the schooner
George Locke of Orange, Texas
arrived off the Pass yesterday
morning at II o clock, and by in the
afternoon had almost reached the
wharf at Tarpon Beach. Near the
| lighthouse, however, it struck a
sand-bar, but not with sufficient
force to do any damage to the boat
or its cargo. Lighters were pro-
cured within short time, and the
work of removing the deck cargo
is now being carried OH with cons
iderable haste. As soon as the
deck cargo is lightered it is
thought that the schooner will be
able to make her way to the wharf
at Tarpon Beach where the rema-
inder of her cargo will be unloaded.
1t will require two or three days
to unload the entire cargo, and
number of men were sent from
this city this morning by the Padre
Island Development Company, to
assist in that work.
The schooner made a fast trip
from Orange. 1t left there on
Sunday April II, and thus spent
nine days on the voyage. Accord
ing to the reports, received from
Point Isabel yesterday evening,
pleasant weather was experienced
during the entire trip.
The lumber, which formed the
cargo of tie boat, will be used in
the construction of the several
buildings which the company has
planned for Tarpon Beach
Another schooner, the Cassadore,
from Orange. Texas, is expected
to arrive at Brazos Pass either to-
day or tomorrow, according to in
formation given out yesterday by
the government pilots at that point.
That schooner is carrying $4,000
feet of lumber which is consigned
to the same company. 1t has now
been on the way for several weeks.
Word has been received that she
cleared from Galveston seven days
ago, which should put her into
Laguna Madre either today or
tomorrow.

Another Of the famous old build
ings of London that will disappear
soon is Crosby Hall. in Bishopsgate
Street Within, which has been sold
to a syndicate and viii shortly be
pulled down to make room for a
bank. It was long the residence of
lord mayors of London, and Queen
Elizabeth once presided there over
a famous feast. It is one of the
most beautiful of London's histor-
ical buildings and worth preserving
if only as a specimen of fifteenth
century architecture, -Argonaut.
