A SUCKER CYCLONE.
what the wind Did at Odsii,
Illinois.


CHICAGO, May l2.-The Inter Oceans
Joliet, ILL.,, special says A most de-
structive cyclone is reported from Odell.
a village forty miles south of Joliet on
the Chicago and Alton road, this after.
noon at about O'Clock. Delegates to
the State Sabbath School Convention
returning here at Q P. NJ, state that as
the train neared Odell they saw the oy-
clone approaching. The first they saw
was the roof OF the elevator raise and
sail of in the air, and the building col
lapsed. Then trees and houses were
raised up and tumbled over and over
like feathers and shattered to pieces
both brick and frame, from shanties
to two.story buildings. The train was
stopped, but as the wind was blowing
parallel with the track 1t was not upset,
though bricks and sticks broke the win
dows. Considerable time was required
to move the debris from the track before
the the train could proceed. After the
cyclone people busted themselves look
ing under ruined houses for those miss
ing. The train resumed its journey
without giving delegates q chance to
learn the casualties, but they report that
several men, women and children are
killed and injured. Local telegraph
agents have been trying to raise Odeil
all the evening, but cannot succeed. and
the real extent of the loss OF life and
damaoe cannot be ascertained.

hail inundated the streets, and thunder
shook the earth. 1.-THE thunderbolts
were deafening, and the electric display
unparalleled. A circus was having a
performance and in the midst of it the
storm struck the tent and turned the
whole show upside down. Women
screamed, animals howled, and general
stampede ensued, amid sheets Of light
ming, drencbing rain and resistless gale,
Three persons were seriously injured by
falling poles and a number were hnri

IT has been said that Chopin often
lamented his insufficient muscular power
in playing the marvellous polonaises and
preludes which are the creations of his
own genius. The accent and the shad-
ings of his beautiful harmonies are at
once trial of perception and skill in the
devotees of his music. And though he
is the greatest of purely piano-forte COM
posers, the changes, the method as it
were Of his melodies, are as suggestive
as thought itself. So those of our ladies
who would excel in the Interpretation of
his music, must not only untiringly study
the phases of his method, but must give
that attention to delicate touch, without
which his melodies can not be Justly
rendered.

The harbor lights are dim with smoke
Which hangs about the under sky,
And wraps the simple fsherfok
In lurid mist as they go by.
Along the shore the wind blows free,
Keen twilight kisses the wan sea
Far out; steer thither, watch with me
The tender stars come out on high.
The sky is deepening overhead
The sail flaps loose the wind has died
The water laps the boat like lead
Faint ripples plash against the side,
And simmer with unearthly light
The ha} Dor lamps are out of sight
We drift into a starless night
Together on the ebbing tide.

MODERN FORTIFICATIoNs.

Tremendous Canaonade Between Two
 Steel Turrets.
 From the London Times
 The experiments now nearly completed at Bucharest possess an interest and importance beyond the mere technical scope. General Brialmont, the author of numerous works on fertilization, was asked to submit a project of defence. Several forts have been already commenced in accordance with his designs, forming the first link in the chain with which it is proposed to surround Bucharest. The important question of armament re- mains in abeyance; but General Brialmont having a predilection in favor of armored turrets, it was determined to carry out ex- haustive experiments with tive structures supplied by Messrs. Gruson, of Buchan, and the St. Chamond Iron works respectively Having decided on sn experimental expendi- ture of some 900, ,000f., the Roumanian gov ernment threw open their practice ground to the representatives of the powers.
 The two turrets are quite dissimilar in
