The tornado with hardly an exception in the afternoon, just after the hottest part of the day, and generally disappears before the goiug down of the sun. The hour of greatest frequency is between S and 4 p. m. A tornado very rarely, if ever, begins after 6 p. m., but a tornado commencing about 5 p. m. may continue its cliaracteristic violence until nearly 8 p. m., which only menus that the tornado cloud may be traveling after 6 p. m., but it does not develop, that is, make its appearance for the first time, after thoee hours. Its usual track is from southwest to northeast, its velocity forty to seventy miles en hour, and its width from fifty ynrds to fifty rods. The tornado season is embraced between March end October. The months of greatest recurrence are May and July. In the southern states tornadoes are sometimes known during tha winter and njiriug months Kansas and Missouri rank highest in regard to frequency of all the slates of the Union.

The red Indian dies at the stake, defiant, eagle eyed and undaunted to the last, but a toothache, the reason for which he cannot understand, makee him cry. In the face of natures awful and unexpected wrath the iron nerved grow weak and the cool headed frantic. So, when the other evening the mad might of the whirlwind was hurled down upon the fair city of Louisville it la no wonder that the firat sensation! ware those of panic and dread unutterable. But as to the crash of falling buildings succeeded the rries of the wounded, brave hearts and willing hands were not found wanting to meet the unparalleled emergency, and through the dismal hours till dawn to urge the labor of rescue by the light of biasing structures wherein fin was completing the work begun by the wind. The scene after the storm was heartrending, heroic, sublime, American. FTobably no tornado ever did such swift and deadly work ou this continent as t ha one which chose Louisville for the central object of its wrath. It was of a peculiar nature and defied in many resjiects the laws laid down as governing these natural phenomena. It haa generally been held that a city of respectable size would turn a wind no matter how fierce. This is now disproved. The maximum width of previous tornadoes was placed at fifty yards The Louisville blast extended lrom side to side a full half mile. Former visitations of the cyclone belt have taken place almost exclusively in the afternoon. The latest horror hail an extra terror added to it LOUISVILLE TOBACCO WAREHOUSES. prepared cave situated on the west side of the house. If there is no such retreat, and no time to get from the building, he should avoid taking a position in a northeast room, a northeast corner, an east room, or against an east wall. The tornado creates a vacuum outside, and tlio air inside a closed house expands at the removal of the ordinary pres- sure, causing demolition by explosion. To prevent this, shut all the doors and windows ou the side toward the coming storm and oiieti thoae on the side away from the storm. A frame building is safer than one of brick or stone, because it is more elastic, bolds together longer, and does not so readily crumble and separate into falling masses. ' If one has no appropriate shelter at hand he should run either north or south, preferably to the north. Whichever way he flies ho will have to face a wind, as the approaching whirl pulls all the air to itself. If there is no other way to avoid the swift rushing terror the person in danger should throw himself face down on the ground, head to tha east, and cover the head with the arm. Beware the neighborhood of a tree or stump, and seek a ditch or depression in the ground. A great many plans have been suggested for breaking tho force of a tornado, but none of them is feasible, as the storm is controlled by forces far above the ground. The Impression that electricity Is responsible for whirling storms is erroneous. Electricity is the effect, not tho cause of the tornado. NONE GENUINE WITHOUT OUR NAME: ... fflSAMUEL 179.

Louisville was founded in 1778 and incorporated as a city in 18138. It has never before mot with a serious disaster, that Is serious as compared with the recent horror. The calamity which has fallen upon the metropolis of Kentucky naturally brings up anew the question: What can be done to safeguard the future! A reply may be given in these words: The populous region of the Uni tail States Is forever doomed to the devastation of the tornado. As certain as night follows day is the formation of the funnel shaped cloud." This is the deliberate conclusion reached by Lieut. John P. Finley, U. S. A., after years of careful attention paid to the subject of atBut he declares if mospheric plienomena. the danger cannot be averted it is among the possibilities at least to escape tho extreme effects of its wrath. There are many premonitory signs which denote with almost absolute certainty the approach of a tornado, such as an oppressive, enervating air, the peculiar and unusual silence of bird,the uneasiness of domestic animals and the development of cowardly traits in breeds of dogs usually ferocious, like the mastiff or the bulldog. Human beings feel weighed down with an indefinable premonition of some impending eviL The sultriness of tho day continues, but in the hitherto clear and coppery sky great banks of clouds appear, generally one in the southwest and another in the northwest or northeast, moving towards each otlier. They are entirely different in aspect from the ordinary hora Lis of a summer storm. They may resemble the thick smoke from a burning building, or a bank of tog or steam, or, if heavy and dark, take on a greenish hue, which presages tha quick coming of a fierce and irresistible elemental foe. Sometimes nature marshals these forces of destruction in solid and heavy masses; again they roll up lightly, but black and frowning as the darkest midnight.

Fred C. Dayton. lleauty and Utility In Architecture. Each day the spirit of the age seems not only to sanction, but also to demand with ever increasing insistence the union of the beautiful with the useful. This applies, among other things, to architectural and en gineering designs. It involves no morn expense so experts say to build a house or barn with an attractive exterior than oue that only satisfies the requirements for room and comfort and in outline looks uncompromisingly ugly. Ths same proposition applies to more pretentious structures erected by municipalities or by private citizens for public use. Among these latter are to be numbered water towers. It lias been the rule, until recently, to regard tlio necessary but unadorned iron cylinder as fulfilling all requirements. Of late, however, the residents of cities, including those who are compelled to gaze daily upon an unpleasing tower, have come to the conclusion that lofty structures of this class may be made ornaments to the landscape instead of biota Not long ago the existence of a general but unformed popular opinion In this respect was recognised by Mr. Henry C. Meyer, editor of The New York Engineering and Building Record, and at his own expense he opened a competition for designs for a waterworks pumping station and a water tower. Over fifty architects responded, and the results attained far exceeded what had been exiweted. The first prise went to a Milwaukee competitor, the sacoud to a resident of Brooklyn, and the third and fourth to Boston architects. Outside the technical excellence displayed, the chief point regarded as solved by the competition is that of wedding beauty to utility. It was shown that It costs little or nothing mire to build a water tower architecturally handsome than one phenomenally kidcoui. Monte Carlo outwardly is one of tha most beautiful and attractive places in Europe, hut more suicides occur there than at any of the capitals of Europe. The great gaming establishment Is responsible for an untold amount of misery, and every gold piece of profit might almost be said to be wet with human blood. and $r tragedy occurred recently which has landed one man In his grave and another in a felon's cell. The killing was the culmination of a drunken quarrel, begfln on a train and muled after arrival at the railway station. In detail the particulars seem to be these: John Byron, who was drunk, asked John Wade his opinion of a ballad some one was singing. Wade replied curtly and Byron struck him. Wade threw Byron back in a seat of the car and threatened to do him later on. At the station Byron offered an apology, which was refused, pre-existi- Chances of Death lu War. No doubt every reader haa seen the statement that it takas a man's weight of lead to kill him in battle, and they may have considered it to be merely a rhetorical hyperbole, suggested by the fact that comparatively few out of the whole number of shots fired in heat of battle take effect Marshal Saxe, we believe, first made the assertion which forms the base of the above, when he said it would take 125 pounds of lead and 83 pounds of powder to put each of thq enemy In the long trench. WJUJ and visionary as' this may seem, it appears that there was more truth than poetry in the remark, With all the improvements which have been made in the art of war since the days of Saxe, Cessendl, the French savant, proves that the great marshal's philosophical remark still bolds good. At the battle of Solferino, according to Gassendis carefully deduced calculations, a comparison of tha number of shots fired on the Austrian side with the number of killed and wounded on tbs part of the enemy shows that TOO builets were expended for each man wounded, and 4,200 for each pan killed, Jbp average weight pf the ball use was 3Q grains, therefore It must have taken at least J28 kilograms, or 237 pounds of lead for enoh mail killed Yet Solferino was a most important n and bloody battle. In the war the slaughter caused by the needle gun among the French soldiers shows how much Austrian carbine; superior that gun la po the ' yet with that1 deadly irtapon j.300 phots were fired for every soldier destroyed in tha enemys ranks. Verily there was good founded tlon for pogerfs ungrammatical remark': Wgr la awful, but tha noise of warfare is St. Louis Republic ywfulur. 1 Franoo-Frassla- -- MOUNTAIN DIVISION.

Says At Mimico, a town near Toronto, Canada, a Lieut. Finley: been that of a humble hero. Although the father of ten children, dependent upon his earnings for support, he added to this largo burden willingly and cheerfully. Remarked his wife: When my brother died John said: I won't see his children want. I guess we can feed two more little mouths Bo we adopted them. A little while after his widower brother died, and he said, Go and get poor John btbon. brothers children. I won't see them thrown on the world so young to shift for themselves. That was two more, so we worked to keep our hungry little flock of fourteen. John never whipped the children. When I'd whip 'em because they deserved it hed look wistful at me. When sober he was as gentle as a little child. At the time of the killing Byron was foreman in charge of the asylum now building at Mimico. A Brusli with the Apaches. Advices from Banispe, Sonora, Mexico, say that the Mexican troops came upon two renegade Apaches recently and exchanged shots with them, killing one. Other hostile! came to the rescue and were driven on their stronghold ou the top of the mountain, where they opened fire, wounding three soldiers, one fatally. The Indians kept up the fire from early morning until late at night, forcing the troops to retire. The next moruiug the troops again marched on the stronghold, but tbe hostile! kept up such an incessant firing that the troops, who were nearly exhausted from thirst and hunger, were compelled to retreat The next day the Mexican troops received reinforcements and charged tha stronghold, but found it The Indians had left a large abandoned. amount of clothing, provisions and saddles behind them. They moved north, followed to the line by the Mexican troops. They had horses and plenty of arms and twenty-on- e ammunition. Centered Her Affections on Cate. After the death of her twin children who lived but an hour, Mis. Jane Duncan, of New York city, developed a mania for cats. Her husband, a journeyman carpenter, bore meekly and patiently with her weakness for eighteen yean. Then he died, but beyond notifying a neighbor, his wife paid no attention to the event. Friends looked after the funeral arrangements, and subsequently had the demented woman taken to an asylum. When the apartments were cleaned up the other day for occupancy by a new tenant, twenty-seve- n full grown cats and a large number of kittens were evicted. They seemed to know that their friend had gone, for none of them has attempted to return since receiving notice to quit Tlie rower of the Frees.
