Blame, who for a Presidential candidate is
engaged in big business.
The New York Tribune- wants Blame |
elected to keep the Republican party in I
power for the next twenty years. That is I
exactly what the country does not want. The j
Republican party has been in power twenty (
years too long already, and the people want
a change. What they propose to do is to I
Tarn the Rascals out.
This only original policy that Mr. Blame j
ever proposed as a statesman was to keep up j
the war taxes, hold the noses of the people to
the grindstone, accumulate a big surplus .
and divide it among the states. But when [
Blame found that he was universally de- j
nounced as a fool he abandoned that knn'v- ■
lib. contrivance of "statesmanship."
Tub Republican Associated Press in en
deavoring to aid Blaiue by suppressing Dem- '
ocratic newa and giving a false coloring to
all it permits to go out concerning the Demo- '
cratic party, is opening the eyes of the country
to what tyrannical force would be employed
against the people if Blame could be elected. '
The only safety for the country is to defeat i
Blame.
The Democrats of Ohio do not regard
themselves out of the fight by any means.
At the Democratic conference at Columbus
last Wednesday 300 commlttcemen from
sixty-one of the eighty-eight counties were
present. If Biaiue get* the electoral vote of
Ohio he will have to tight for it with despera- !
tion. In this case it looks as if the October j
election did not count.
Jim BLUM cries aloud that the Demo- '
cratic party desires to "seize" the govern- i
ment. Well they ought to seize it to prevent '
the aforesaid Jim Blnine from delivering it to I
Jay Gould, Field, Huntingdon, Sage, Roach '
and other jobbers who have furnished the .
money for Powell, Clayton, Dudley, the ;
Augusta post master, and other rascals to
debauch the country with. It is high time
for Honest men to "seize" the government
and Turn the Rascals out.
The Pioneer Press of Sunday says that j
Auditor McCardy, who is a candidate for a ;
third term, made a "witty speech" at the i
Dayton bluff meeting. The sleek and wealthy !
McCardy can afford to be jolly. While- he '
was indulging in his "wit" Saturday night j
Jim rule O'Brien was arranging" to care for a I
wife and eight little children made homeless
by fire. Mr. O'Brien will make no "witty
speeches" thi3 canvass, but he is a gentleman \
and will treat the public gentlemanly when j
he is elected county auditor.
Major Strait has thirteen hired speakers :
in the field, and is expending more money i
in the canvass than his salary will amount to
in four years. Our Watertown correspon
dent, in a letter elsewhere, exposes his free ■
saloon tactics in a suggestive manner. If \
he was not robbing the people he could not
afford such expenditure. > This lavish ex- j
penditure of money on the part of Major j
Strait should put the people of the Third dis- (
trict on their guard. It shows that be will j
feather Major Strait's nest at their expense j
if they give him the opportunity.
There are thousands if not millions of ;
men who will cordially agree with the judg- ,
ment pronounced in the following by the
Detroit Free Press:
No one can read the manly, yet touching, let- j
ter of Orover Cleveland to Mrs. Beecher without
feeling that it is thu sincere protest of an honest
and maligned man — a man willing to acknowl- '
edge his errors and to confess bis sins, but who ;
will not allow his enemies to take advantage of i
bis candor and contrition to slander him with !
tbe pestilential inventions of their prurient imagi- '
nations. The letter was at once dignified and i
virile, tender with the memories of his mother, '
and full of righteous wrath at hit- accusers. It j
is a revelation of a strong and independent mind; ■
honest in it» purpose, childlike in its humility j
anil penitence, but an brave in resenting tin
truilitul accusations as in confessing those |
which were founded on fact.
That frigid representative of the North i
pole, Hon. J. B. Gilfillan, warmed up suf
ficiently to say at a meeting on Dayton' Bluff
Saturday night that the Globe had falsely
accused him of trying to steal the capitol
away from St. Paul at the time the building
was destroyed by tire. He cited as evidence
of his loyalty to St. Paul that he was, at the
time in question, laboring with Gov. Pills
bury for the reconstruction of the capitol. If
he had stated that he was laboring with Gov.
Pillsburr to cut dotm the estimate* for the
building he would have stated the exact
truth. Mr. Gllfillan did not want to see the
capitol building reconstructed in St. Paul on
a permanent basis. In the face of his noto
rious hostility to this city it is brazen
audacity for Mr. Gilfillan to appear before a
St. Paul audience and beg for votes.
Howard Paul once wrote to the Philadel
phia Times that he had seen a letter from a
French nobleman to an American gentleman
then in Paris, asking whether William H.
Vandcrbllt had any unmarried daughters and
whether A. T. Stewart left any. He was on
the lookout for an opportunity to weigh his
title and impecuniosity against wealth in the
matrimonial balance. If Miss Mary Eliza
beth Garrett, daughter of John W. Garrett,of i
Baltimore, docs not become the immediate
cynosure of covetous eyes it will not be for
lack of an almost universal proclamation of
the fact, by the entire press of the country,
that she Is now the wealthiest unmarried i
woman in the United States, and only \
twenty. years — capable, too, if re- !
verse of fortune should ever come to her, of
earning her living as an accomplished steno
grapher.
It Is very depressing to know that even
the integrity of raaecaroni i* not above sus
picion. Four mnnufaclnrera at the comceti
hie were arrested in New York recently at the |
instance of the (ward of health on the charge i
of usins: chrome yellow anil eliminate of lead, |
instead of e'j'js, in coloring the maccaroni. !
Another kindred industry and luxury is
threatened in the substitution of roaches for
sardines. A correspondent asks a leading
journal, after stating that he has a fish pond
abundantly stocked with roachrs, how he
can utilize them, and if they may not be ■
made into oar.iineo for family use. The
monkey and the hand organ alone perpetu
ate the memory of a beautiful at- I «peci.le
nationality, but, ala«, aMen and usurping ,
hands have learned to turn the melodious j
crank, and man's Darwinian footer-brother j
is just as *pry in .retting: the pennies, and as i
obedient I i the behests of these notes origi- {
nally to tin tnnnkev bom, as to his first '
adaptors of Mh Italia.

THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE. MOKD AY MORNING, OCTOBER 27, 1884:
Logan, now the foot of the ticket of which Mr. '
Bluine is the head, with hie . '-bludgeon"" and his
"candid brutality," and for the "political bur-<
glare of Illinois" who wen- hia followers.", It
characterizes the Massachusetts group led by i
Senator Hoar as "political hermaphrodites,"
abuses Grant and says that the stalwarts in gen
eral, "Cameron, Conkling and Logan, have noth
ing to lose by the disruption of the Republican
party." To make assurance doubly sure, fab* ;
similes have been furnished of a letter of in
structions addressed by Gail . Hamilton
to -Mr. Reid as to the insertion :i of
MM articles written by ' her. • - signed
by her real name, Mary A. Dodge. Alto the
conclusion of one of her letters , in regard to
James Freeman Clark, signed with her nora de
plume. The original "copy" has interlineations
by Mr. Whitelnw Reid. There can, therefore,
be. no question that the course of the Tribune nt
that time was dictated to Mr. Held by (Jail Ham
ilton, under the direct authority of Mr. Maine.
who here, as in other cases, had no hesitancy as
to the means use to further his own political
fortunes even if it involved the disruption of the
Republican party. . '
Now the vile anil venal New York Tribune
has the mendacity to say (possibly written by
Gail Hamilton aril surely endorsed by
Blame) that— ,;■:;•;. x-y;'
"The friends of ex-Senator I'onkling. under
the administration of Blame, will stand a* Weil as
the friend* of any other prominent Baa do, pro
ri'Uri they are £epnblirant>."
In 1880, through the channels of his in
fluence, Blame was secretly supplying edito
rials written by a member of his household
traducing 1 and intending to distrov the most
honored leaders In his party. He stabbed
the StahvarU in the back in • 1880,
he sought the destruction of
Conkhng in ISSI and he assassinated I'< >!>_•■. •;•
in 1832. General Grant when he learned
the other day the true authorship of the
Tribune editorial abuse he encountered in
1880 expressed deep regret that he h:*l per
mitted himself to notice Blame in 1884.
In connection with scraps of inside his
tory the address of the Utica stalwart already
published by the Globe has a double force
and big influence. The brutality and ruf.
fianism, the duplicity, treachery and false
hood of James G. Biaiue arc measureless,
and hourly the proofs multiply that he is a
craven knight, who kneels to Mulligan, prays
to Fisber, flees investigation, and hides be
hind a lie when any danger confronts bim-

The New York San before it had been'
"seized" with a desire for the success of the
Republican party, gave some figures which '
presaged the election of Cleveland, and this
basis of calculation is the correct one now. j
After declaring that the main issue in the !
Presidential election is whether there shall
be a Democratic, honest, economical ad
ministration of the government or Republi
can corruption and profligacy the Sun said:
• Jfiere is not the slightest reason for supposing
that any Stale, North or South, that supported \
Hancock in 18*0 fail to tote for tlu Demo- I
cratic candidate in I**4. If we add the 36 votes j
of New York to the Hancock votes, this would
determine the struggle in favor of the Demo- !
cratic nominee. The fix voles of Connecticut
and the 15 of Indiana would carry the Demo
cratic majority up to a handsome figure. Some !
doubtful states may also fall into line and make !
the triumph of honesty over profligacy especially (
memorable in the history of the country.
The Republican party must go!

The following letter needs uo comment or
introduction except to tell who wrote it. It
was written by Judge Smith of the Supreme
court of Buffalo to his friend Hon. Philo Par- |
sons, of Detroit, in reply to a letter from j
Mr. P. making inquiries for his own inform- |
ation as to the character and standing of I
rover Cleveland. Judge Smith tells the
truth:
Governor Cleveland is an upright, honest
man, of incorruptible integrity, of fair abilities,
of untiring industry and great capacity for labor.
He has administered the various offices he has
held wisely and well, making fewer errors, per
haps, than a more brilliant man might have
done. Ha is one of those men who are always
adequate to the duties of the place they are
called to fill. He has always been considered
here a strong partisan, but I think be is capable
of preferring the good of hi« country to that of
his party, where they conflict and the conflict is
perceived by him. He is a plain man, without
pretense or ostentation, modest in prosperity,
not elated by success beyond reason, and with a
good, solid common sense that stands in good
stead on all occasions. I am personally friendly
to Governor Cleveland, but I shall vote the Re
publican ticket.
The Republican party must go.

Blaise say« the Democrats will "seize the
government" if they carry the solid south. New
York and Indiana. No doubt of it. That will
give them the necessary electoral votes, and if
they do not "seize the government" they will do
an unprecedented thing. We feel quite confident
that the jrovernmont will be "seized" next
March by dor. Cleveland, tho name seizcr who
captured New York two years ago.

the great Chief Decora, died at 6 o'clock on the

Boston Herald: The Jovrnal refers to Mr.
Blame, running his circa* in Indiana, as "the

to come secretly to him! No, no; that i« not

| race. The attendance was small.
The start was made promptly at 3:30 p. m.
Gaudauer getting away with thirty-seven
strokes, and was leading about two and one
half lengths when Teemer st'rtcd five tsec
onds later. Gaudauer maintained this lead
about a mile, when Teemer spurted and
gained one length. Gaudauer turned first,
one length and a half in advance. Teenier
spurted again, after turning, and caught his
antagonist in a quarter of a mile, and in the
next quarter gained a lead of
a clean length. Gaudauer then
spurted and drew up level with Teemer, and
from this point, a bout a half mile from home,
the struggle was hot and desperate, each evi
dently doing his very best. Neither one ap
parently could get away from the other or
gain a lead of even a foot. The finish wan
so close that the referee, Thos. J. Gallagher,
decided neither had won, and the race must be
rowtd over. Teemer and Eph. Morris
claimed the race by two feet, while Parker,
judge at the outcome for Guudaucr, claim- <.
tbe latter was one foot and a half in advance.
The referee, however, whose boat was a little
in the rear of the rowers when they crossed
the line, decided as above, and gave the
friends of the scullers the privilege of nam
ine the day for the next trial. No otllcial
time was appointed. The gentlemen on the
referee boat held a watch on the men and
give the time at 20 :0S for Teenier. .; . - •
Ept. Morris and J. A. St. John, backers
respectively of Teemer aud Gandttucr met to
night and agreed to row the race over next
Sunday afternoon.' The referee declared off
all bets on the race ta-day. ' t ;

Watektown. Oct. 23. -The largest and
perhaps the most enthusiastic political meet-,
ing ever held in • Watertown was held, in
Koehler's hall this eveniug. N The meeting
I was called to order at eight o'clock by Wil
liam McLeod, Esq., who introduced Mr. Don- j
nelly in glowing terms. He said: "It gives j
me great pleasure to have the honor of intro
ducing to you Minnesota's greatest orator,
statesman and author, Hon. Ignatius Don
nelly, candidate for congress from this dis
trict. His literary works are pronounced the
greatest efforts of this age. I now introduce
to you the Hon. Ignatius Donuelly." "
Mr. Donnelly stepped to the stand • amid
loud applause, and spoke for two hours, his
speech being repeatedly applauded. The
audience this evening wa< certainly the most
enthusiastic of «ny ever gathered together
to listen to a political speech
in Watertown. Each and everyone applaud
ing loud and long.
It was reported to me before I reached
Watertown that this was a very strong Strait
town, but the audience which completely
filled the hall showed conclusively by their
enthusiasm that such is not the fact. After
the meeting I talked with some of the lead
ing farmers and citizens of the village and
they say that Mr. Donnelly will carry this
county by a nice majority; that many Re
publicans that have heretofore voted for
Major Stait arc going to vote for Mr. Don
nelly this fall, that the farmers all most to a
man are going to vote for him, their candidate
There were a great many farmers present,
(nearly half the audience being farmers)
some of them coming a distance of eighteen
miles'. When a farmer* will give up his
work and go that far to hear a
political speech shows conclusively that they
are in earnest this fall in supporting a far
mer for congress instead of a banker ami
miller. . The night was dark and cold and
about 7 o'clock it began to snow, but still
the farmers coutinued to arrive. Another
indication of the interest the people are tak
ing in Mr. Donnelly is shown by the fact
that at 7 o'clock the cannon commenced to
boom and did not-close until thirty rounds
had been fired. As we drove up in front
of the hotel farmers and citizens of the vil
lage that filled the sidewalks gave "three
cheers for Donnelly," and before he bad
hardly got his overcoat off the hotel parlors
began to swarm with friends to greet him.
At the close of the meeting two gentlemen
stepped up to the bar in a saloon
underneath the ball and asked
for a glass of beer on Major
Strait and it was furnished without a word, I
asked one of them if that was customary and '
he said yes. I asked him if I could give their !
names and he said yes. Their names arc ,
John*Boylan,and Gco. Sndeith,both residents ,
of Watertown. That 6hows conclusively that
the major is depositing money in' saloons to
buy votes. It so happened both of these '
men are in favor of Mr. Donnelly and got
the drinks to prove what they had beard. '

A STARTLING STOEY.
A Beautiful American Lady is Decap
itated in Japan by Order of
the Mikado.
fpDeciftl Teleeram 'to the Globe. I
New Yokk, Oct. 26. — A startling story is
related here as coming from Japan, by way
of Paris. It is that one of the most beautiful
women America has produced has been be
headed there through a. special edict of the
mikado, secured through the prayers of his
prime minister. The woman was Countess
Pourtales, me Mrs. John Eeecher,of New Yor k.
The decapitation was caused through the
Japanese prime minister's love, jealousy
and revenge. The story of the Countess
Pourtales was as follows : After the war there
came an aristocratic mother and her beauti
ful daughter to New York from Georgia. The
mother and daughter brought letters to many
New Yorkers, among whom were Thurlow
Weed, Hugh J. Hastings, Thos. Murphy,
Henry Clews, and others. The daughter
was so beautiful that she made a sensation
wherever she went. She had many suitors.
The suitor most favored was the wealthy
John Beecher, and many New Yorkers
remember their happy marriage. During
Mrs. Beecher's early married life no pro
fessional beauty received so much attention
as she did. Accomplished, graceful, vivac
i >us, the young wife was always the center
of an admiring groupe. Her toilet in the
park and at the Jerome club house was al
ways the envy of every lady who saw it.
Every New Yorker remembers Mr. Lloyd
Phoenix' flirtation with Mrs. Beecher —
she shot at him as he passed up his sister's
steps on Fifth avenue, and how,
after her husband separated
from her, she fled to Europe
in pursuit of Mr. Phoenix. The newspapers
were full of it at the time. In Paris Mrs.
Beecher, supported by her divorced husband's
money, generously given her, began a life of
luxurious plasure. She drove the handsom
est turnout on the Bois. gave the most sump
tuous dinners and was the sensation of the
gay metropolis. One of her first suitors was
Count Pourtalos, formerly connected with
the French legation at Washington, whose
first wife was. the beautiful daughter of
Ben Halliday. Mrs. Beecher and the
count were soon married. Her beauty was
the craze of Paris, and while the countess
was the talk of the city, she sailed with her
husband for Japan, where the count joined
the French legation. In Japan, as the wife
of an attache of the legation, the Countess
Pourtelas was introduced to the highest per
sonages in diplomatic circles. For a time
she led the court circles but soon, it is al
leged, she tired of her husband, as she
had tired of Mr. Beecher, and
began flirting with a French officer,
the count now claimed that they were not
legally married and sailed for France, aban
doning the countess in Japan. The next
steamer brought the countess to Paris.
About three months after her advent in Paris
Bhe met a French colonel who fell in love
with her. ' They were not married, but he re
turned to Japan with her, arriving as man
and wife. She again met her old
friends in diplomatic circles.
Her propensity to flirt again
manifested itself, and her third husband so
called, abandoned her. As Boon as the
colonel had gone the countess became the
wife of the prime minister, one of the
wealthiest and most influential men in Japan.
Here the countess had every luxury but
liberty. It is alleged that the prime minister
was so jealous of her that he would not let
her talk with any gentleman. Such a life
did not suit the countess, so one day she ran
away and became attached to
another Japanese official. The affair
so exasperated the prime minister
that he went to the mikado and prevailed
upon him to issue an especial edict, con
demning the countess to be decapitated.
Her fourth husband, so called, was impris
oned. The news has now come to New York
that the edict was carried out, and the beau
tiful Georgia refugee, win dazzled New York,
and the lovely countess, who bewildered
Paris, was actually decapitated. In Japan
nobles of high rank consider it a heinous
offence for a woman who has smiled upon
them to ever afterward smile upon another.
This Strange custom cost the Countess
Pourtales her life.

Sidney Smith once said • nt breakfast was
so pleasunt because nobody was co&ceK --i
before one o'clock. In truth, most people
are at their best at this hour; th -v have been

prcviuns day hsvo stepped into the back

kss excitement and expectation about It:
who known what pleasant things may happen

starling out to meet us, what tetters the post
man may be at that minute taking from the
mall-bag for us, what checks the publishers
may '*• that instant 4la}arfu in our behalf.
Po&stbiy by the dinner time we may tie
disillusioned and out of temper; the hap
piness we looked for may have failed us. the
friends we counted upon may have disap
pointed us, the editor may have declined our
>Ie which was to make our name a baose

os where to choose, another page of that in

liel.t of our being displays itself —that is to
say, unless we belong to that claM of people
in not "come down to breakfast as if a
piece of uood fortune had happened to them
avtr nigfct," who rise out of temper with
nothing In particular but the world in gen
eral, and continue irritable and disagreeable
till their appetites are satisfied.
It is charitable to suppose that this pecu
liarity is owing to an empty stomach, but all
the same these are not the kind of people
one would wish sit down with : they are a
blot upon the serenity of the hour, a rebuke '
to as. as if our )Ujnt-he*rtnednesft were only !
i makeshift of frivolity, as though they
really believed we were as glum as they, but
not so canid. In short, breakfast should 1
never be slurred over as it is in some house
holds, a* if it were a necessary evil, a piece
of drudgery, to be endured with all possible
dispatch, before the earnest and profitable
business of the day; for in more or less de
gree it is our breakfast which is going to de
termine the day for us, which is to prepare
our system for the day's journey and the
day's worry, and it is highly important that
it should be made inviting, that the room
should be cheerful, the food irresistible, and
the company such as to encourage diges
tion.
A. It ACE WITH A SHARK.
The Episode That Thrilled a Crowd of
Spectators nt Stnpleton the Other tiny.
• There were about fifty strong swimmers
disporting in the sparkling waters of th« Nar
rows yesterday off the old ferry dock at
Stapleton, Staten Island. An. old diver,
John Taylor, who baa been in the service of
the Coast Wrecking Company for years,
stood on the dock. By and by the swimmers
began to scamper ashore and Taylor said
"Sharks." Bare enough a shark wa3 after
the men, who managed to get safely in.
When the spectators were gasping a sigh of
relief, however, a cry of horror broke out
from the diver. lie pointed far out over the
water on the other side of the pier. There
was another swimmer frisking about all
alone in the water, all unconscious of what
had been going on or what a terrible foe had
been encountered so near. This wt;s a young
man named Thomas Kobler. The crowd
sit up a yell at him and beckoned him back
with frantic gestures. He did uot under
stand at first, and paddled slowly in. The
crowd kept up their excited cries, and finally
he, although not understanding the mean
ing of the commotion, started back with ail
his energy, evidently satisfied that there was
some good cause for this solicitude in his
behalf. The shark, meantime, had been
scouting the other side of the pier, where h6
had lost his game by so close a shave, and
seemed reluctant to leave so rich a ground.
"The shark will get onto him, sure," said the
diver to the excited spectators. "He's only
got to sweep around the end of the pier to
| head him off as he comes in on the other
: side." The situation was now thrilling. The
I swimmer at last had cot at the true situation.
: He knew there were sharks in the water and
as be swam it was noted that he looked ap
prehensively at times from side to side to
learn from which quarter he might expect
the attack. His face wore an expression of
desperation. A shriek went up from him a3
hi- drew near and saw the shark rolling on
the opposite side of the pier to that he was
approaching. He swam for dear life, and
the crowd encouraged him with frantic cries
and advice. ,
'•It sees him! It sees him I" yelled the
spectators.
Sure enough the monster turned about
and pointed its nose toward the incoming
swimmer. It was apparent that the young
man could not reach tae pier in time. The
shapk glide i along rapidly and the swimmer,
I too, was making excellent time. The spec
tators could calculate that the converging
lines on which the two were traveling would
meet within a few feet of the dock and there
would doubtless be enacted a horrible scene.
The diver, Taylor, seemed to take a sudden
resolution when it became apparent that
there was no escape for Kohler. He took oil
his hat. coat and shoes and borrowed a long
sheath-knife from a sailor. He than ran out
to the extreme end of the pier, where the
shark, it was seen, would pass close by on its
: course to its victim, who was now near that
point. As it came nearer the crowd saw that
it was a monster more than eight feet long
and one of the shovel-nose species.
Taylor is a large man and an expert
swimmer. As the shark swept up and was
running direct for Kohler. turning.on its
back at the same time, Taylor sprang from
the pier with the sheath-knife in his right
hand. He jumped about eight feet before
striking the water. He landed about one
foot on the opposite side of the shark. The
whole weight of Taylor's body was thrown on
the knife, which he plunged as he touched
the water into the Stomach of the shark. In
stantly Taylor's arm, the water and shark
were almost bidden in blood. The shark
made a terrible plunge and rolled over on
its stomach. The shark was at that moment
within threa feet of the younej man, whom
the crowd expected to see caught It then
turned and disappeared, in deep water. Tay
lor swam ashore without the knife. "I left
it sticking in the cuss," he said. — V. Y.

People generally, as the gaze upon the
quiet, pale-faced moon, have no contempla
tion of the velocity with which it performs
its orbital journey. Earth's plodding mill
ions but little reck of the lunar and side rial,
and solar wonders that advanced astronomy
have brought to view, to impress us with the
boundless immensity of creation, and tin;
illimitable resources of the great arthor of
all. What can finite man do, in the con
templation of creation's boundless array but
wonder and adore. Professor Langley, pre
sents the following picture of the moons
startling, bewildering velocity:
"We can faintly picture, perhaps, how it
would seem, from a station near the lunar
orbit, to see the moon — a moving world —
rush by with the velocity greater than that of
the cannon-ball in it 3 swiftest' flight; but
with equal speed its shadow actually travels
along the earth; and now, if we return from
our imaginary station 1., a real one here be
low, we are better prepared to see why this
flying shadow is such a unique spectacle; for
small as it may be when seen in relation to
the whole globe, It is immense to the ob
server, whose entire horizon is filled with it,
and who sees the actual velocity of one of
the heavenly bodies, as it were, brought down
to him. The reader who has ever ascended
to the Superga. at Turin, will recall the
magnificent view, and be able to understand
the good fortune of an observer (Forbes) who
■ nee had the opportunity to witness thence
this phenomenon, and under a nearly cloud
less sky. ■] perceive*, he says, 'in the south
west a black shadow like that of a storm
about to break, which obscured the Alps. It
was the lunar shadow coming toward us.'
And he speaks of the 'stupefaction' — it is his
word- -caused by the spectacle. 'I confess,'
he continues, 'it was the most terrifying
sight I ever saw. As always happens In the
ca*es of sudden, silent, unexpected move
ments, the spectator confounds real and re
lative motion. I felt almost giddy for mo
ment, as though the massive building under
me bowed on th-j side of the coming eclipse.'
Another witness who had been looking at
tome bright clouds just before, says: 'The
bright cloud I saw distinctly put out like a
eain.ic. The rapidity of the shadow, and the
tensity, produced a feeling that something
material was sweeping over the earth at a
speed perfectly frightful. I involuntaritj
