How n CycloneLooks,

The recent terrible cyclone in Macoupin
county, H., is thus described by En-
gineer Cutter of the Chicago and Alton ex-
press train, which was running at full speed,
and met the tempest near Carlinsville. Mr..
Cutter saw out on the prairie what he
supposed to be straw or haystack on fire. AS
he approached it he saw that it moved
rapidly toward the track, and then realized
that it was cyclone OF the most appalling
character. 1t was dark, funnel-shaped
cloud reaching from the ground high in the
air, where it disappeared into the clouds.
1t was black and dangerous looking, and
whirled with terrible velocity. Its voice,
heard even in the distance above the rum
BILE and roar of the train, was frightful in
the extreme. The cyclone seemed to travel
at the rate of twenty miles an hour, and was
so fast approaching that the moving train
must in moment inevitably strike it. Mr.,
Cutter shut of his engine and applied his
air brake just in time, for, despite the pro,
caution, the train touched the cyclones
outer edge. Mr.. Cutter describes the sigh
as the most horrible he ever saw. The ail
was lurid and dark and hot, as if from ar
oven. Everything in the pathway of til,
storm was demolished and crushed and an
initiated. Barns, fences, sheds, telegraph
poles, and everything at all fragile was swcp
up. Mr.. Cutter aud his fireman crouched
down in the tender, and for moment feared
that the whole train would be overturned
The cars were only held on the track b,
their safety chains. The passengers, wilt
at first wondered at the stop, with blanchet
cheeks and terrified countenances viewed
the terrible monster of the. air in lis work
