It was an engine used to push trains
up the grade from Moingona. The
crew was about to back the engine
across the Honey creek bridge near
the river trestle and was on the look
out for bad track.
The engine had passed the Shelley
cottage and gone onto the bridge
when, with a crash and hiss of steam
it plunged through the span and
dived into the whirling water below.
The girl realized the danger at
once. A passenger train was due
soon. Her only hope lay in cross
ing the long bridge and reaching Mo-

Mistaken Idea OF
Tornado Corrected

The commonly accepted deini-
ton of a tornado, often found
even in dictionaries, is erroneous,
according to the Westher Bureau
eff the United States Department
of Agriculture. The funnel
shaped cloud like a waterspout,
sand column, or dust whirl" is
not the tornado itself, but a pie
nomenon that occurs with it, a
product of the violent and de-
structive winds that constitute
the tornado. In meteorological
terms a sssstornado" is a small, VIC
lent, rotating windstorm, some
times confined to an area of a
Thousand feet or less.
A Cyclone" as meteorologists
understand it, is a system of
winds accompanying an extensive
region of low barometric pres
sure. It may cover an are cf a
thousand miles or more, and is
usually characterized by clouds
and precipitation. A "hurri-
Gene is a cyclone, which usually
originates in the warm waters of
the South Atlantic or Caribbean
Sea, and consists Of violent de-
s~tructive winds that damage prop
erty and endanger life. This
same type of storm is called q ty-
when it occurs in the VII
Of the China Sea and the
Philippines. The probable direc-
ton of g hurricane can be pre-
dicted from observations, and the
speed of its progress IS reckoned
from its measured wind velocity.
The Weather Bureau sends out by
radio and telegraph warnings Of
approaching hurricanes, so that
a sea and persons at all
in their paths may take
.eps to protect themselves.
