own words, "enjoyed" opportunities
OF witnessing the formation and,coursc
OF tornado, says that, in the South.
ern States, the c,ulso Of tornadvcs is
always from point south of west to
a point north of east, the gyration
always from right to left, and that the
gyratory velocity is commonly one
hundred aud twenty or one hundred
and sixty miles an hour. This ex-
plains why trees, houses and every
thing in tho path of tornado are
thrown down or swept away. The
professor once saw ca pine tree, six.
teen inches in diameter and sixty feet
long, float out from the black vortex

ter OF mile, and sail aronnd TO all
