Carried Mile in d Cyclone.


ain the year 1882, about the latter
part of March, /, with some of my
friends who were on a visit to me,
went out to an old editice about two
hundred yards from the house one eve
ming to enjoy ourselves over a game Of
seyen-up.
when we left the house not one of
us had the least idea that the bright
rays OF the sun would be followed by
the black wings Of destruction.
Il remember well, we had been play
ing about two or three hours. I had
the ace, deuce, queen, and jack of
trumps. My opponent had just thrown
down the ten spot of clubs and | was
just in the act Of taking it with my
jack when | was arrested by a loud
numbering noise that sounded like the
roaring of train, but hundred times
harder.
q jumped to my feet and ran to the
door. What l saw as I put my head
through the opening will remain with
me to my dying day.
The space above me was as dark as
pitch, except when the flash of light
ming made little light, and by one
Of these flashes could see old timbers,
shingles, tree tops, and everything i'm
aginable flying in every direction.
Il sprang to the middle of the ROOM
clasped my friend to my breast. and
cried; We are lost! Oh, God, save
usr
The words had scarcely left my
lips when, oh, horrors! | saw the top of
the old barn torn from its bed and
hurried to destruction, folded in the
arms of the mighty destroyer.
The old logs were being scattered
around me. | felt the floor moving
under my feet, everything turned
dark, and knew no more till I open
ed my eyes and found the kindly face
of the doctor bending over me.
Il had been hurled over mile from
the old barn, and how I got there
without being killed the reader can
best imagine. Three teeth Knocked
out, my left arm and two ribs broken
were all the injuries 7 received.
"On inquiring afterWard found out
that my friends never received "a
a scratch. When the top of the old
barn was torn off they ran out in the
yard and lay fat on the ground, hug
ging the roots of a large stump.
ut has been nearly ten years since
that terrible night, and [ never see a
cloud rise but | can almost feel myself
being hurled through the air.

The New Railroad

A correspondent of the Phenix Gazette writing from Ash Fork has the following concerning the pro gress of work on the new railroad:
 aDiamond drills are being used in the extensive excavations near this place. Contractor Lantry IS work ing 254 men and has men m Colo rado and New Mexico securing more teams and men, and by the fifth of March fully 500 men will be at work.
 Dickey and Robinson will be here Inv the second of March and then 1t is thought that work will be pushed from Prescott south. Ash Fork IS a busy little town, something new Tor the place.
 The company has seven months to complete their fifty miles and they not only want to comply with the exemption law, but want to extend the line as rapidly as possible to- wards Phenix.
 Tell the people of Phenix that the Santa Fe. Prescott X Phenix railroad will be built as soon as money and mechanical skill can do it.
 There is no feeling in this camp against the Bullock line or the South ern Pacific, as the building of this road is a purely business proposi' tion, the future of which has beer solved many months ago. An immense dyke was penetrated yesterday by the diamond drill anc the boys were considerably excited by some gold filterings taken out O the excavation. The engineers, Glib son and assistants, are on the ground and are watching the work with botl interest and care"

HoM TO SEE THE COUNTRY.

The Choice of Seats on Different Rail-
 roads to Enjoy the Scenery. There is a choice of seats in the cars of almost every railway, not on account of sun or shade, but for what Is to be seen, unless the scenes along the route are familiar; then the shady side is to be chosen.
 The Piedmont Air hneruns through such varied scenic country that 1t is difficult to choose; either side will do-it will take a round trip to see It all, especially on the Western North Carolina road to Asheville and the Warm Springs.
 On the Queen and Crescent trans out of Cincinnati a seat on the left Is best as far as High bridge; thence the scenery is for the most part on the right hand side of the cars to Chattanooga and around Lookout mountain, though the rear end of the train affords the only good view Of the historic hills; thence southward the left side is the best.
 On New York Central trains leav- ing New York the seats on the left side of the car are the ones best for scenery along the Hudson to Albany and also west of that city through the Mohawk valley.
 On West Shore trains the very op- posite seats are to be chosen; those on the right hand side afford the best views of the scenery.
 On the Lehigh Valley road it is best to take a seat on the right as far as Mauch Chunk, on the left from there to Fairview. then on the right as far as Wilkesbarre-after that on the left.
 On the Erie, going west, take a Jeff hand seat as far as Port Jervis, and then on the right.
 The bulk of the Baltimore and Ohie scenery is best enjoyed from the left windows from New York to Wash ington, also westward from the cap ital.
 On the Pennsylvania railroad, from New York to Harrisburg, seat on the left Is best, thence to Altoona on the right, again on the left to Cresson and on the right to Pittsburg.
 On the Iron Mountain route, south :. from St. Louis, a seat on the left side of the car will show the fine views of the Mississippi river. The great Iron mountain of Missouri is on the west side of the track.
 The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul runs through a beautiful lake region, to be seen from either side of : cars. but beautiful Lake Pepin and the Mississippi are to be seen from the left windows of a west bound train
 ,.. In Mexico the tortuous winding of : the railroads render 1t impossible to offer any suggestions, but seat on the right side of Mexican National train bound south is the best; certainly It : is between Toluca and the City of Mexico, where the grandest views are.
 On the Mexican Central the best general views are on the right lex cept at Zacatecas) as far as Tajo de Nochistongo; then the first view of the plain and city of Mexico and the volcanoes from the windows on the ieft.-Exchange
