y The Democracy, this year, have had an
unusually good prospect of carrying elections,
and are improving it BY making blunders. One
of thcir higgcst blundcrs is the superhumsn as
sault they are making all nlong the line against
the tariff. They always -et worsted when they
buck against the tariff The industrial and
manufacturing classes need tariff, and will
stand up for it. Free trade is in the interest Of
European pauper labor, and the American labor
er will not touch it. But the Democracy are
like shrimps They love dead carcass to stick

All About T0rnadoes.

There has been prepared by Gen. Hazen
the Chief Signal Officer Of the county, an
official paper which contains a tabuated
statement Of SIX hundred tornadoes and
some generalzations from their facts. The
six hundred storms cover a period OF
eighty seven years and the whole county,
Their examination leads to the conclusion
that tornadoes occur most frequently in
the month of June. Kansas is the State
that has been most afflicted. The State
has had sixty two tornadoes from 1859 to
1881; illinois has had fifty-four from 1854
TO 1891; Missouri has had forty-four from
1914 to 1881; New York has had thirty
five from 1881 to 1881; Georgia, thirty
three from 1894 to 1881; Iowa. thirty one
from 1854 to 1881; Ohio, twenty-elght
from 1898 to 1881, Indiana, twenty seven
from 1852 to 1881. The States and Terri.
tories that have bad only one each from
1894 to 1881 are Colorado, California, In
dlan Ty., Nevada, New Mexico, Montana,
Rhode island West Virginia and Wyoming
The storms occur most frequently from
five to six In the afternoon, although there
is no hour of the day that has been entirely
lEtC IIOLl JuGll uC dfSldGG NluIu OI the
path of destruction is 1,0S5 feet and the
storm-clouds run with velocity of from
twelve to sixty miles. The wind within
the vortex sometimes attains velocity of
eight hundred miles an hour, the average
velocity being three hundred and ninety
two miles. Among the most valuable
suggestions of the paper are those with
reference to the peculiarly of the move
ments of tornado clouds, containing rules
for arriving at their violence. A tornado
cloud always has centre: and it always
moves forward from west to east. 1t may
however. sway from side to side in its pro-
gressive movement, Changes in motion
are sometimes very sudden. In the event
IF sudden change the observer who is
east or south of east Of the storm
should move quickly tc the south. II
he is northeast he should move 20 the
north. If within a very short distance
of the clouds the observer should run
east, bearing to the south. This indl-
Gates the character of the directions which
have been given tor the avoldance of the
disastrous effect of storms.

Craze For Tops.

The top mania has attacked the boys
not in a mild, gentle form, but with all the
malignity of an epidemic. The rage OF
the 10 puzzle among adults was nothing
compared TO the power of the top craze.
| The German BOY is content to see his top
spin, but the American boy never rested
until he had invented two or three lively
games TO play with tops. The primitive
cheapest top is made by cutting spool In
two, driving hard piece OF wood into the
hole, and working the small end OF the
! spool down TO point. These tops are
spun by twlrling them with the fingers.
The regulation top is made IN turning
lathe about the size of pear, and pro-
vded with a steel point. The best are
made OF box wood and cost ST. The
cheaper varieties vary IN price from TO
20 cents. The manipulation winds string
around the top, (goed fishing line is best)
and then with a sudden Jerk pull of the
cord sends 1t spinning on the sidewalk or
ground. There are numerous fancy vari-
cites OF tops. One Is tin affair, almost
flat on the upper end, where are attached
numerous pieces of bright colored paste
board. Touch these lightly as the top re-
wolves and the dlsarrangement of the
pieces makes kaleidoscope change of
colors seemingly never twice alike. An
other is the hUmmirg top, made below
with hole in one side. 1t makes some
such noise as an irritated hornet. The
practical variety, however, is the plain,
cheap topt
"What game do you play with tops'"
asked the writer of a newsboy.
He opened his big eyes wide with Won
dernent that any mortal should be so igno
rant and said: "Why, peg-a;-ory and
peg-er smallpox. Don't you know how to
play peg-er peg-a-tory2 Oh, yer foohn!
Honest now, don't yer know how2 Wall,
it's this way: We pink for the lne. Plnkin
for line is throwin' out tops at it, maxim
'em spin as they go. The fellew that comes
furthest from the line sets himself in a
ring, an the others spin theIr'n and peg at
MS top with 'em, If a boys top spins and
rolls out o. of the ring, he's all right; but
if it don't spin, or don't roll out o the
ring he's got to put his in tile ring with
th'other one. Then, if all the tops get In
the ring, the first one that got in takes
hisn up and tries TO knock the others out.
AS many as he knocks out he hicks. Then,
the ones that are nlcked are all right, an
they peg at the others TO knock 'em out.
That's peg-a-tory. Peg or smallpox is
where one boy puts his top in the ring,
and the other pegs at it. Whoever knocks
ii out of the ring nIcks it or gives it the
smallpox with his top The feller that's
nicked can then try an knock the top out
that's in the ring. Nickin is takin top
up and punchn' so many holes in it with
the sharp point of your top. A top don't
staad it long. Sometimes we play for 10
and sometimes % nicks.
The best tops will SPIN a wonderfully
long time. O.e boy boosts top that will
go over two minutes and no man with
2 Is horse was ever prouder or received
more proportionate dattenng offers for his
property than the owner of this two
minute top.
