there was not one 10 be found after the dark
ness was over. Swallows, however, kept
upon the wing, and a large herd of cattle
feeding upon the prairie kept on uncon-
cerned and paid no attention whatever TO the
great phenomenon. The workmen making re-
pairs on the railroad not far distant thought
they knew more. They packed up their tools
when 1t grew dark, evidently believing their
day work over; but they were soon unde-
celved by the reappearance of the sun, and
went to work again.
Rose-colored projections or beads around
the margin of the moons disc were plainly
visible to the naked eye. They were three
IN number; one upon the lower or southerly
edge of the moon, which was visible during
the whole total phase; one upon the eastern
edge of the moon, which was visible for only
a short time after the sunlight disappeared;
and one upon the western edge, which came
in view a short time before the temperance
of the sunlight. The moon itself looked dark,
almost black, and appeared as a disc and not
as a sphere
The first intimation of the passing off of
the total phase was a lighting up of the hori-
zon in the northwest, which gradually in
creased and moved towards us, until the
great shadow at last swept by and the sun
once more burst in view. The instant of the
passing off of the shadow could not, how
ever, DE detected by Jne eye upon Jne sur
face of the earth. watched for it closely,
but was first apprised of the suns appear
ance by the exclamations of those around
me who were watching the corona. The
time of the total phase was about two min
utes and forty-eight seconds. 1t, however,
seemed much longer, such was the effect of
the scene upon the 5eholder. And can well
believe that an old negro who, the night
before, was giving his recollections of the
total eclipse of 1906, correctly represented his
own impressions and thought he was telling
the exact truth when he said that it was
plum dark for moren half an hour When
the total phase is over the spectator
| (unless he is a scientific mani feels that
he has seen all, and walks away vainly
trying to analyze and understand the
emotions he has experienced He is satisfied
| that however he may fail in communicating
his impressions to Others total eclipse of
the sun, of which he can never expect to wit
ness another, is well worth going thousand
miles to see, and that it's recollections will
always be among the strangest, grandest, and
most beautiful of his life. COrresp0ndenc,

THE SHOOTING OF HARRY LooAS.-Th'
San Francisco Chronicle gives the following
particulars relative to the recent shooting Of
Harry Logan, the well known San Francisco
broker:
In our evening edition Of yesterday Nc
gave an account Of the shooting affair which
occurred at half past two o'clock Yesterday
morning at the saloon of Porter & Lewis, on
Montgomery street, near Bush, which re-
suited in Harry Logan being wounded in
two places-one shot entering the right
breast, and the other penetrating the abdo-
men two inches below the navel. The &C.
count given in the evening edition was such
as common rumor gave upon the street; but
upon making further inquiries we are
assured, BY parties who were present at the
time, that the statement that Harry Logan
drew d knife and made threatening demon
stration toward Guerrero is not true. Harry
asserts that he was unarmed; that the
attack was entirely unprovoked, and was
commenced by Guerrero siapping him IN the
face and then drawing four shooter and
firing three shots at him, two Of which took
effect as above stated; the other passed
through the window panes of the cigar store
and entered the wall opposite. Various
minors were upon the street Yesterday as to
the cOnditlon OF Logan anu tHe eHaiees va
his recovery. Drs. Murphy, Bowie and
Sharp were in constant attendance upon him,
and up to the hour Of writing (half past
,welve) there was apparently little change
for the better; he was kept under the infiu-
ence of anodynes and rot allowed to be as
turbcd. Guerrero, who left the saloon i'm
after firing the shots. made his
escape and although the officers are keenly
IN the search. up to twelve O'Clock last night
le had not been arrested.
