TE WISCONSIN, CYCLONE.-The Janesville (Wis- eonsin) Gazette, of Angus. l7iA, says: On Satur- day evening. about six o'clock, a most disastrous tornado passed over the towns of La Prairie and Clinton. in this county. On visiting the scene, yesterday, we learned the following particulars: A few light, low clouds were seen flying from a northwesterly direction greater part of the af- tenoon. no one in that vicinity fearing any dan ger from the storm. At about six o'clock light cloud was observed coming from the southeast. moving at a very rapid rate At the same time large black cloud passed over the orchard Of Mir. Jacob Schencks It seems that as these two clouds approached each other, they settled down to the earth, low. heavy noise was heard, re- sembling the moving of heavy train of cars accompanied by terrific peals of thunder The cyclone formed in shape something similar to a large balloon; by this time. it had reached the farm of Mr. Holmes, occupied by one Thomas Monahan. The first damage done was the tearing down of q few rods of fence, then to a srall granery, lifting 1t some twenty feet in the air landing it on the opposite side of a fence. Next came barn, l2x2j, which was taken up and torn completely to pieces. the most complete wreck we ever saw Just before the tornado struck the barn, Mrs Ellen Monahan. an infr.n lady, 7S years of age, went out to take care of little boy, who was in the barn with his sister. about nine years of age. Mrs Monahan was ta- ken up in the whirlwind and instantly killed The girl was taken mp also Cncredulous as it may seem)to height of fifty feet (some who witnessed it say one hundred feet, her clothes were torn completely off and carried long distance, doing her no bodily injury When asked how high she was blown, she answered: "Oh, sir, was up al- most to the sky"
