 In appearance General Chung Ming represents the highest typo of Chi nese intellectual. His head is large, well-shaped and replete with char acteristics which would interest phrenologist. The forehead is broad and high; the nose somewhat longer snd less broad than is usual among the Chinese: the eyes lack the pro- nounced oriental slant; the mouth is oarge and the chin cquare and deter mined.

If the caller is welcome he transfers to a small scow, which is sculled to the island by an aged boatman.

 If the visitor Is a representative of the press he has had his trouble for nothing, for General Chung Ming refuses to say word for publication or otherwise. He simply states that he Is out of politics for the present that he is very busy with the move

of sunshine, there being 13 clear
 days and 5S per cent. of the pos sible amount of sunshine. In this respect the month was almost an exact counterpart Of February, 1917,
 which likewise had 13 clear days and 59 per cent of possible sunshine Only July 1920 had d larger number of clear days, 15. while November, 1922 equalled last month with 13.
 There was a total of 3.S3 inches of precipitation, included in which was the water equivalent Of l0.4 inches of sncw. The normal amount of precipitation for February is 5.O2 inches. A measurable quantity of rain or snow fell on 10 days of the month, as against February nor nal of 13 days with precipitation.
 The month was the windiest, with one exception, that has been eXper- fenced in the years that automatic wind registration has been made by the Weather Bureau. The average hourly velocity for the month was 7.6 miles, a record exceeded only by that of December, 1917, when the average was 7.9 miles. While the average velocity was higher in that month than in last month, the maxi mum velocity for j-minute period was only 30 miles an hour, as against fl miles an hour on the 18th of February The highest prev iOus record for a 5-mile perod was 36 miles an hour on March 12, 1917. An extreme velocity of 56 miles an hour on February 16th, likewise broke all records.

That the month of February ! just closed. was most extraordinary 1 in some of the weather features is affirmed by practically all the old
 timers of Juneau They contend that 1 they shoveed more coal than in any February for number of years back and that there were more broken windows and damaged roofs than in any previous month. While the memory of the oldest inhabi- tant" is often faulty when il comes to weather conditions, his conten- ton in this instance would seem to be borne out by the Weather Bureaus meteorological summary.
 This report shows that while Feb ruary normally has a mean tempera- tEre of 300 degrees, the month through which we have just passed had a mean of only 23.S degrees, making an average daily deficiency of 62 degrees. It shows, also, that only one other February in 26 years of record had a lower mean, that of 1890, when the mean was 22.4 degrees.
 With a zero temperature record ed on two days,-the 7th and 8th,- the month can again claim distinc- ton, for i'll 26 years of record there have been only other February days when the temperature went that low There were two days in February, 1890, and three in Feb ruary, 1917, one of the latter three having a reading of 15 degrees be- low zero
 An unusual feature of the weather of the month was the large amount
