It takes three hundred bones to sit in. I've about decided it's too rich fur my blood, when next work-out day comes 'n' Hamilton works four furlongs, with Micky up, like a cyclone. That gets my circulation goin' 'n' I takes a shot at it. "'Who's burning this up on the ten mile wonder? says the sec. to me, when I'm payin' the entrance. 'The work seems a little coarse for my old friend Ike.
"You had me wingin' for a while, but I plugged your game with the cowboys. Pawnee Bill and his Congress of Rough Riders think you're a cyclone." "It's the first chance I ever had to wear that silk running-suit. Who knows, maybe I can run!" "Nix, now! Don't kid yourself too far. This thing is funny enough as it stands." "Oh, I dare say it looks like a joke to you, but it doesn't to me, Larry.
Punch was brushed aside like a straw in the path of a cyclone, and that Newfoundland swooped down upon the plate. In spite of his huge maw he must have been trained to quick lunches, for, in the fleeting instant before he received the kick in the ribs I aimed at him, he completely engulfed the contents of the plate. He swept it clean.
The horn, like a cyclone with a whirling breath, bore the music into the forest and an echo repeated it. The sportsmen became silent, the hunters were amazed by the power, purity, and marvellous harmony of the notes.
And the careful housekeeper, to whom some one came every moment and seized her keys to get spare linen or silverware, to open another room, thinking of the throwing open of her stores of treasures, of the plundering of her wardrobes and her sideboards, remembering the condition in which the visit of the former bey had left the château, devastated as by a cyclone, said in her patois, feverishly moistening the thread of her distaff: "May God's fire devour all beys and all future beys!"
It saved me the trouble, too, of bothering with the roof. It blew it right side up and the clothes are all down in the room now." "'Your affectionate father," "'Jonathan." "'P.S. I like this part of the country better than I did Kansas. I think we will stay here, Cyclona." "Until another cyclone comes along," the Professor commented, "and blows him into the Gulf."
But the cyclone himself didn't think there was anything small about him: being Hart's nephew so scared to death all the few wits he ever had was knocked clean out of him who come into Palomitas, white as white-wash, riding bareback one of the coach mules.
Meanwhile Malcolm was saying to himself in his whimsical way, "It is my destiny is it not written in the book of fate? The Parcae Sisters three have willed it so. Good heavens, what an enigma life is! Some winged insect whirling in a cyclone would have as much chance of escaping its doom as a human being under such circumstances."
"They shall see," he wrote in that immortal postscript to The Heart of the Cyclone "the Laws whose existence they derided written in fire beneath them." "But even here," he continues, "there is no finality. Better a thousand times my conclusions should be discredited than that my dead name should lie across the threshold of the temple of Science a bar to further inquiry."
Mr Ross was anxious to hear whether the cyclone had done any damage at home, although he had not much fear, for it had apparently come from another direction. However, it was eventually decided that three of the Indians should return home, and bring along with them another canoe, as well as news from the home.
