UP IN 'A .TORNADO.
• :During the past throe weeks there
has been a succession of tornadoes in

They last froin.olle to three hours, and
are succeeded , by. a 'perfect calm.—
Their general direelioa is from• north.
west to southeast: • Tho width of , the.
storm truck is not over . a .mile,- its
greatest.vielepee being confined. to a
belt, of' 200 or4oo yards, 'crossing the
valley diagonally a short distance be
low, town, and occasionally , the side
current giying them at lively shaking
up in the village. •The first two was-'

moderate sized.boulders, tossing them
about like jitek-Straws, and just by
way 'of vitrie.ty; Wrenched a couple of

Mr:A.. Elliott reeently:-pnrehased
the Hall fhrm on Cottonwood creck,„a
half mile from town. It has on it a
doubt° log house, ono story ; having •a
roof area of seventeen by forty. feet.—
On it there is dirt roof. Mr. Elliott
was engaged in re-roofing it with
boards, and bad it about completed on
Saturday when the storm began. His
son, a lad of a dozen ycars,was on one
corner, and, boom •the comb..:, As z the:
whirlwind dippedfhe called to•his - son
to jump down, and Mr. Elliott clasped
the comb.projection of-the boards to
prevent being blown, to the ground.—
Suet at the instant the entire roof, raf
ters and all, was lifted fromthe-build
ing, and raising with the whirlwind;
sailed air:ly, attaining altitadd of
about'forty feet at-the greatest,' and
landirtg'ond hundred and - eightyrnine
feet from the'bouse, where Mr. Elliott
was dumped by the''coneussien ; the
roof performed' a soinersault over him,
and waS scattered itra thousand frag
ments over the valley. Stranef l as it
may appear, Mr. Elliott is only slighEi
ly bruised. •The- lad • was uninjured,
the beard , roof gliding out'from Vadar
him,
leaving him' sitting"diseensblate
on the dirt toot, while Lis fattier 'was
abandoning him at the rate' of E.ixly
miles an hour.' When it is considered
that the' roof contained '3200 feet of
lumber, was nailed to heavy log • raft,
ors, and that 'the 'whole affair was car
ried 189 feet intaet, some idea 'of . the
force of the whirlwind may be obtain•
ed. The distance is given by Mr. Cla

ter • the occurrence: The escape of
Mr. Elliott was a miracle.
