whirlwinds PLAY SURPRISING V ANTICS
The freaks of a cyclone occasionally verge on the miraculous. A wind may tear a path fifty yards wide through a dense forest, tossing the trees aside like stalks of gram, and yet leaving untouched a canvas tent which she! ters a party of campers, and which s right in its path. Men have been lifted from the P ground and deposited high up in the branches of trees. Ii one case, a whirlwind carried an infant from a falling house and set it down unhurt in a meadow nearly a quarter of a mile away. ° ne C^ carried away a wooden house in which the family were at dmner and =et down the structure with force enough to demolish it, yet without injuring the inmates or upsetting their dinner table. Another odd example of the curious action of a whnlwind was a waggon from which every fiagment of woodwork had been been blown, leaving only the iron frame.
