Ti e explanation given in yesterday • Herald as to what constitutes a evclom and what a tornado would .i..tcil\ lie accepted by meteorologists. G" • ng from W aldo's Meteorology, Th. term cyclone is applied by met- . o: dogists to all kinds of atmos- . |d ■ ie disturbances in which the air pi.s^ire decreases, and there is a wind movement, inward toward tli« ceulet. t’y.Jones of the temperate 'i.' i elder zones are of great ext-nt, iiM.aliy covering a region at least ''vei,-,i hundred miles, but sometin.a couple of thousand miles in < into ter. Cyclones are frequently a •H. p.inicd by secondary cyclones limited extent, hut intense energy, manifested by strong windtl. Those tt called tornadoes.” Again. '• \ tornado is a progressive, limited, lo- . I violent whirlwind, characterized b a Tunnel-like cloud which hangs i ■tided from an intensely hiaci: me ol storm clouds." All such 1».-I storms, as that yesterday m*ar i dlmore, are properly tornadoes Tli. v are popularly called cyclones, h r this term strictly applies only to tb ' f'i'st rotary motion of the at nto: pliere always taking pl.ee .•o,ni(i areas of low barometric presmr nnd is not necessarily destine - iv, in character. In fact, the cyclone ' the ordinary distributing agent for our many sorts of weather, fair and toul rhese great circulating urea; move across the country from the west, with an average rate of thirty miles an hour, and they carry with them their burden of clouds and rain fair skies and sunny weather it is by utudying their movement that the Weather Man ondeavot to tell what a day may bring

forth

The process of the formation of 1 V 1 loll. j not yet understood to a certainty, and much investigation " ill atiil he re.iiiired before I lie story >r the making of a tornado can he I ally told. "The wild bloweth where it listeth" is ns true today as ever tunI the wisest can only tell in part "whence it enmeth and whither it Kaeth.” J. i>. n. Tin* Herald stands corrected. The delinitiou given yesterday was that of magazine articles and pseudo scientific writers.

Democrats \ud Itepuhlicaiis Present Plans for a Review of the Vote in Marion County.

WILL BE DECIDED ON FRIDAY

Special Judge Frank T Edenharter heard arguments yesterday as to the recount in this county, as proposed by defeated Democratic ran.lidates for state offices and defeated Republican candidates for county offices, but will not make a ruling until Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Henry Seyfried, William W. Spencer and Willard New were among those who represented tin* Demoeratic candidates, and all of them spoke. Pleadings were also filed for Hie Democratle stale candidates. The 'cond paragraph of the plea in abatement filed by Atlorney General Ringham was overruled on a motion filed by Mr Seyfried on behalf of the Democratic stale candidates. This paragraph took the ground that a local court had no jurisdiction in some of the eases hecaitne this was not • heir legal residence, and the judge 'included that tins was, under the law, their residence as state officers. They had not had much hope for the plea, anyway, Mr. Bingham had explained. 'I'lie Democrats filed a demurrer also to the first paragraph of the plea, and it is on it Hint the case will he decided, d’he paragraph takes the position that the law as to the recounts, passed In 1881. had been repealed and did not refer to voting machines. Mr. Ringham. in arguing • i'is. took the stand that the law providing for the Australian ballot, passed in 1889. and the voting maohine law. passed twelve years later, bo Hi repealed the recount law by implication. Against him in his position were both the Democratic candidates for state offices and the Republican candldatesi for count., offices. John M Weaver and Mr. Moores spoke for Hie local Repuldicaiis. Mr. Weaver argued that a law not pertaining to Hie precise purpose of another law did not repeal the older law and that therefore, the Australian ballot law and the voting machine law, not touching upon tin* subject of contests or recounts, did not affect the law of 1881. Mr. Moores among other tilings, touched on the fact that the law of 1881 was not inapplicable to voting machines, and that since it had not actually been repealed it was still to lx* adhered to. He called attention to the fact that a contest where voting machines are uted is even more IT.'dive than a contest under the Australian ballot law, which provides that the uncontested ballots shall lie burned, because after tin* vote is taken on the machine it stands then*. He suggested, too that the Legislature must have had something in mind when the provision was made in the voting maobine law that Hie machines should he left for thirty days without change. Some of the candidates suggest.* I when Mr. Ringhatn asked for a postponement until Friday because lie said he felt it his duty to go to Andersonville, Ga., for the unveiling of the monument there tomorrow, that he might pay tin* expense of watchers at the storage place where the machines are kept. The local Republican amf Democratic candidates are spending $ 1 (i a day for watchers. Mr. Ringham said, however, that Hie law did not provide for ouch watchers and that the candidates could do as they pleased about hiring them. Indianapolis Star.
