The "deadly cyclone !' has not been as
plentiful in its visits thus far this year as
it w as last, yet it lias by no means gone out
of business. One of its frightful visita
tions took place near Keeil-lmrg, Wis., on
Monday, and over the limited space af
fected it was siiiiViontly furious. Its track
was about twt-tdy miles ! mg and twenty
rods wide, and in its course destroyed
about '.'' houses and barns, hilled one man,
and injured five. Its track lay ten miles!
through timber, and is marked ly an al
in. ist clear track. In the vicinity of the
path of tlie stiiitn all ( tops are ruined and
every fanner loses more or 'ess live stock.
The country where the -totni passed is
very hilly, particularly where it originated,
and a curious feature of its travels is that
the valley are atripju'd, while some of tlie
intoi'vening hills tire scarcely touched.

Blaine's Dougthnuts.
Many of the peculiarities of lllainc's
growth and development are likely to tie
accountiHl for as the canvass goes on. Al
ready we have had the testimony of eight
or nine persons who preached at lllaine in
his early life in "tlie old New England
way;" and if lllaine went from Pennsyl
vania, as one authority reports, "countint'
the heads of his rosary," and was preached
at hy a battalion of New England parsons
" in the old New England way," that alone
would tend to explain his total demoraliza
tion, for it is well know n that in the con
flict or religions feeble humanity is very
apt to take to the woods.
liut he apparently had harder things
than theology to digest. There was one
parson who lived so near to him that he
could throw a doughnut from his pia.u
into lllaitKt's yard. The parson of course
only learned that he could throw a dough
nut there by actual e.ieriiiient, and so a
grave historical problem is presented as to
whether lie regularly threw his old dough
nuts there, and also how many old dough
nuts he had. It must be observed that the
parson intended to be very previse in this
statement of distance, but" he w as not suc
cessful, as the standard is only local. How
far can h New England parson in regular
practice throw a doughnut? No curious
student of national customs can be exiM't-ted
to vote lior lllaine until his mind is relieved
of all doubt on this topic.
' Probably n New England parson com
monly has a good many doughnuts on
hand! because New England benevolence
as exhibited in donation parties is apt to
take that dreadful form, bid this parson
shoot all his spare doughnuts un Blaine's
premises? And if he did what did Maine
do w ith them 1 le may have tried to eat
them. If he did his friends should make
the fact known. lec:iuse it will be expected
in mitigation. If Blaine was crammed w ith
two religions and a neighltoriu? parson's old
doughnuts, he is not more than half resjiou
sible for the villaniea f his career. - . Y.
