This particular storm, the fiercest ever known In Brltr'u, carried a men near­ ly a quarter of a mile through the ■Jr before dashing him down to death. It threw tombstones about, hurled abop goods Into the street and took the roofs oft hundreds of houses, Cyclones a s a rule occur only In hot countries. Their fierceness is due to a sort of a hole In' the atmosphere. The air all around rushes in with tre­ mendous-force to fill up this hole, So a cyclone Is really a sort of a cart­ wheel of winds, fierce gales blowing along each' spoke toward the hub, which is called the “eye” of the cy­ clone. In a cyclone the "cartwheel” is much smeller than in an ordinary storm, and the Winds are correspond­ ingly fiercer. There are authentic in­ stances of cyclones driving flying nails Into trees and planks right up to the head. Straws, too, have been driven, half through stout doors. A very curious thing about cyclones is that a house caught in the eye of one has its doors and Windows burst Caught a Tartar By SAMUEL. E. BRANT John Riggs and Elmer Burch, two young men of the world, splnutog about ou an auto tour.Tftppped one day at a country hotel and, liking the lay of the land, the scenery and more es­ pecially the cuisine, of the house, com eluded to remain for awhile. They .in discovered li0small game going oh u room behind tjte office and went m to look on. They were adepts at the notional gatae of poker, but only played as gentlemen with gentlemen— for pastime apd not for the purpose of replenishing their exchequers. The game they watched was being flayed by four men, one of whom ap­ peared to be a greenhorn, who was be­ ing fleeced by the other three. They had not been playing long, and Riggs saw that the sharpers were permitting the greenhorn to win. When they left the table for supper he was consider­ ably ahead, and the other* exacted a promise from him that be .would give them their revenge during the evening. The two young tourists felt sure that if the winner played in the evening the. sharpers .would contrive that he should lose not only all be bad won. but whatever he hud. to lose besides. Riggs said be should be warned, but Burch' suggested that he would not take a warning. Fools like that, he said, couldn't be taught-wisdom.

This was noticed ia j was to win his money from him, then Wales, and accounts for the contents, of shops being-hurled into the street. The reason is ri’at the eye of a tor­ nado being empty of air, the pressure of air within a closed house againBt the empty space outside makes tbe house burst outward as if it contained a charge of dynamite. Air everywhere has a pressure of fourteen pounds 'to- the square inch, I t is this suction that makes a cy­ clone draw corks from any empty bot­ tles it finds In its path. Any one caught In a cyclone often finds th a t dust or mud is driven into his dlothes under such pressure that repeated washings refuse to remove it. At 10:^0 a, m.

The tremendous lifting; power at the eye of a cyclone is shown not only by its hurling men and even sheds into the sir, but by- the curious fact that it usually leaves every well in its path quite dry. It is this upward suction that accounts for waterspouts a t sea. In countries where cyclones are com­ mon every house has a "cyclone cel­ lar” Close a t hand for use when a cy­ clone is on its ,way. The only good point about a cyclone as compared with an ordinary storm ia‘that the track along which it trav­ els is always a very narrow one. Its path is seldom, more than 2<%or 809 yards broad.. On each side of the track where a cyclone is spreading' death and destruction the weather is often quite average. Women In the Trades. Has any one aver seen a woman plumber?. There are not many per­ sons who could reply in the affirma­ tive; but according to the report of the census of England and Wales re­ lating ' to occupations and industries, there are 86 women who ply the call­ ing of plumber. Of these 77 are wid­ ows.

After supper, while tbe two were smoking on ‘the piazza, the greenhorn came out, and they began to chat,with him. Burch said to him tba| he had watched Ills poker game and was sur­ prised at his skill, Riggs'chimed In. The result of tbe talk was that they Invited him to cut the men' with whom he bad been playing and join them in a game In their rooms. The fellow seemed indisposed to deny tbe sharp­ ers their revenge and asked the friends if they thought he had a right to do so. "Certainly,” said.Burch. “Every sit­ ting a t poker stands for Itself,’ If these men had won your money they wopld not have played again with you unless they wanted to. Isn't that so?” he added, turning to ills friend. Riggs confirmed bis opinion, and the three men adjourned to a room up­ stairs and sat down for a game. For half nil hour tlie greenhorn was permitted to win with ease. ■He play ed a ' very poor game, but the two friends failed to bet pu their good hands mid always bet on their poor ones. When they had let their oppo­ nent win about $50 they changed their tactics and won it all back again. The greenhorn pullgd out a roll of crisp ten dollar bills, manifesting an inten­ tion to buck against his adversaries for all he was worth. The friends glanced a t each other knowingly. The little game they were playing interested them. They were not used to spending tfceir time with­ out amusement, apd they were getting all they wanted. The greenhorn play­ ed even worse than before, and, losing, his money, he became excited and lost his bend completely.

Electrifying Terminals; An investigating committee, financed by the railroads themselves, Is said ’ to have drawn up a report In favor of electrifying all passenger lines within the city of Chicago, Including thuie devoted to suburban service, Saoh a report should end all controversy on this long-discussed matter, and usher in the era of action. Tbe city council should provide for prompt electrifica­ tion In any terminal ordinance that may be passed, and the executive branch of city government must see toMt that such provision Is enfo.ced.

There has to be free u*e Of barnyard . fertili­ zer, and the plow­ ing, disking, bor­ rowing, rolling and perhaps hoeing must be in proportion to the amount of production required of the land. Such treatment will build up Instead of wear out a plot of ground. These example# may be varied as circum­ stances suggest: Lettuce, radishes, onions, peas, car­ rots and string-beans may be grown and supplied to customers between the 1st of May and the middle of June. Tbe ground'van then be prepared in a few days fov the succeeding crops, and it will he found that between the 1st of July and the 1st of October a .full crop of these products can.be grown: Celery, sweet corn, late potatoes, beets,, cucumbers, cabbage, lettuce, spinach, onions and turnips. At first glance It would seem that there are not many vegetables bn the list that could be sown successfully as late as midsummer, but those tested form quite an spray, Busb beaus, car­ rots. lettuce, beets, corn, parsley.,peas, radishes, spinach and turnips all give satisfactory results when sown as late as August They should be put In ns near the 1st. of July as possible to make all growth possible before frost. The hardy ones cause no anxiety, as they endure light frosts,. The tender sort such as beans, cucumbers and spinach, mny be saved from the cold by a covering of old rugs and similar material.
