It baa not been given to man to know the whys and wherefores of cyclones and tornadoes that carry death and destruction In their wake; It Is enough to know that such visitations are not at all uncommon on the American continent. Europe may have her earthquakes and other disasters, but the cyclone and the tornado are peculiarly American Institutions, and the havoc they wreak ts truly American In proportion.

When cyclones or tornadoes swoep the middle west or the far west, their work Is done on a great scale; there are no half measures. The balance of the world reads and wonders at such visitations, but does! not experience them.
