SUNDAYS UpheayaI.
TSan Francisco Chronicle. I


The British ship Charles Bal arrived on
Wednesday from Hong Kong. The captain
related his experience while passing through
the Straits of Sunda during the terrible vol
canic outbursts which occurred in that re-
gion in August last. On the evening of the
evening of the 22d of August the sky sud-
denly assumed milky white appearance,
changing to a strong white or silvery glare.
This phenomenon, with slight variations,
was repeated on the Oath, 25th, and Goth.
The ship had sailed past Java Head and
Primes Island and was nearing Krakatoa
Island, which was then an active volcano,
but which afterward sank below the sea. On
the afternoon of the Goth those on board no
tieed some agitation about the point of Kra-
katoa, which increased until a terrible roar
ing noise, as of mighty fire, seemed to ema-
nte from the island, while an occasional ex-
plosion sounded like the discharge of heavy
artillery, growing more furious and alarm
ing each moment. A dense darkness spread
over the sky, and a hail of pumice stone be-
gan to fall on the ship, many pieces being of
considerable size and quite warm. During
the night there were chains of fire constant
ly ascending and descending from the Java
coast. The sky one moment would be of in
tense blackness, the next a blaze of fire.
From midnight until 4 O'Clock on the morn
ing of the 9th the wind was strong, but hot,
choking, and sulphurous. AT II 80 O'Clock
that day commenced a downpouring of mud
and sand, and at noon the darkness was such
that the crew were compelled to grope their
way about the decks, while the roarings of
the volcano were fearful. At 2 O'Clock the
fol 1of nd Of 4bo
and upper yards became visible, and very
gradually the ship sailed away from the most
terrible and disastrous volcanic eruption of
modern times

Senator BOtren Meets % Friend.
WASHINGTON Cr;tic


In the lobby of the Riggs House yesterday
morning two old-time friends met. One
was Senator Bowen of Colorado, the other an
old miner, who looked trife seedy. The
Senator had just emerged from the breakfast
room. The miner sto cd idly gazing in the
direction from which the Senator came.
"Hellol Tom Bowen. Why, bless my
SOUL you amt changed d-n bit since 1
met you in the Rockies in 1887 was the I'M
dignifed salutation of the miner.
mo, Bill, " said the Senator, II reckon I
am about the same"
The two held a conversation for a short time,
when the miner was overheard to say:
E'Tom, stake me: I'm dead busted. Amt
got dollar"
The Senator pulled from his pocket large
roll of bills, and counted $50 in money, and
handed it to his friend.
They then separated. The Senator went to
his room, and the other walked toward the
bar, where friend was awaiting him.
''Tom fixed me,,' said he; ''but, after all,
he only did what have done for him many
time. Away back in the good old days,
before Tom struck it rich, l would often
stake him. / remember one time that he
borrowed five ounces of gold to get into a
game of poker with. You know, Tom is a
keen, shrewd poker player, and can come as
near holding four aces in his sleeves and
playing them on the boys as any one 1 ever
saw. Well" he continued. ''Tom got in
to the game, and it lasted forty-eight hours.
When he came to pay me the borrowed gold
l asked him how he made out.''
"Oh," said he. II scooped the boys in fol-
s13,0O0."
But" resumed the miner, "after that
time it was common thing for Tom Bowen
to make as high as s25, 900 inning"

Nominee fo7. Ma,ior.

Mr.. John G. Noe having declined the nom
nation for mayor, the Republican city COM
mittee have substituted the name of Geo. M.
Palmer, Esq, business manager of the -four
ing mill of Hubbard & Co., in which institu-
ton Mr.. Palmer has an interest, and the
gentleman has expressed himself as being
willing to accept the honor conferred, and
will therefore be placed upon the ticket. Mr..
Palmer is young man of about thirty years
of age and has lived nearly all his life in
Mankato. He has acquired reputa-
ton of which any young man
might feel justly proud, and is said to be a
liberal, public spirited citizen. 1t is to be
very much regretted by his friends that he
had not concluded to become candidate be-
fore the convention, as that would have
started him out under very much more ia
vorable auspices. AS it is, Mr.. Palmer is a
very popular young man and if elected
would make good officer without doubt.

Vital Questions!

Ask the most eminent physician
OF any school, what is the best thing In the
world for quieting and allaying all irritation
of the nerves and curing all forms of nervous
complaints, giving natural, childlike refresh
ing sleep always?
And they will tell you unhesitatingly
''Some form of Hops!"
CHAPTER I.
Ask any or all of the most eminent ply

tain urine, and all the diseases and ailments
peculiar to Women''-
sAnd they will tell you explicitly and en-
phatically 'Buchu.'"
Ask the same physicians
ssWhat is the most reliable and surest cure
for all liver diseases or dyspepsia; constipa-
ton, indigestion, billiousness, malarial fever,
ague, &c." and they will tell you:
'sMandrakel or Dandelion!'
Hence, when these remedies are combined
it'll others equally valuable
| And compounded into Hop Bitters, such a
wonderful and mysterious curative power is
developed which is so varied in its operations
that no disease or i'll health can possibly exist
or resist its power, and yet it is

now become i'll, might have some mutton
broth
One day he left her in tears, and went sob
bing down the street.
"What is the matterln said stranger.
''I'm hungry and so is my mothern
''Well, l can't do much but I'll help you
little" and he gave John Scent loaf of
bread.
When the boy reached home, the good
woman put the Bible on the rickety pine
table, read from it and then knelt and
thanked God for the precious loaf.
In the spriug he obtained employment at
81 so week, but poverty and privation had
fallen too heavily, rested too long upon the
mother. One day, while preparing Johns
simple supper of rice and milk, she fell
dead. All night long the desolate boy held
her cold hand in his; then, in that Christian
city, she was put in pine box, and without
shroud or prayers, carried in a cart, her two
children walking behind it, and was buried
in Potter's field.
For three days afterward, John and his
sister never tasted food. Probably the world
said, Poor thingsl' but it is certain that no
one offered to help them.

Especial Reports from the GLOBE Mankato Office
March a.
Death of capt. Jack Keeler.


At two a. m. yesterday morning, Capt.
Jack Keller, who had been seriously i'll for
some time at the residence of his wife's
father, VIM. Bradley, Esq, of this city, de-
ceased. About the first of March Mr. Keller
arrived from Sioux Falls, D. T., where he
had been sick for a week or more, and on
March 5th DIR. W. R. Mcmahon, the Bradley
family physician, was summoned and
attended him continuously until
death supervened. When the
case became critical Drs. Harrington and
Warner were called in consultation. The
usual symptoms of typhoid fever were not
alarming, but upon Monday, the 10th inst.
hemorrhage of the bowels set in, which was
to such an alarming extent that hope was
practically abandoned by his physicians some
days since, and although his friends hoped to
the last there was little if any real foundation
for it.
Capt. Jack Keller, as he1was Familiarity
known, was at the time of his death, as he
had been for years past, a passenger con-
ductor on the Southern Minnesota
railroad, and had his run
from Wells to Sioux Falls, D. T.
He engaged in railroading at the age of ff-
teen years on the La Crosse division of the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul road. In 1866
he came to Minnesota and engaged with the
Winona 81 st. Peter Railroad company, with
whom he continued ten years, when he went
to the Southern Minnesota road where he has
since continued and where he had earned not
only the most unbounded confidence of the
management but the universal appreciation
and esteem of the general travelling public
for his courteous, gentlemanly bearing and
strict attention to business. In September,
1881, he married Miss Lulu Bradley, daughter
of VIM. Bradley, of this city, whom he leaves
a widow with one child Of about four months
of age.
Capt. Keller was attended during his i'll
ness with the most assiduous care, and all
that love and skill could do to alleviate his
pain and save his life, was done. His
brother, d. Keller, of Dodge Center, and
wife, have been with him during the serious
part of his illness, and his sister, Mrs. w.
II. Taft and husband, of Tunnel City, Wis,
his only other living relative, arrived yes
terday morning too late to see him alive.
Capt. Keeler was more widely known than
any young man in southern Minnesota, and
was universally esteemed. Had he lived
till June 23d, next, he would have been 33
years of age. The funeral will take place
from the residence of Mr.. Vim. Bradley, at
2 p. IN. to-day.

The Railroad Pools.
Special Telegram to the Globe. |

CHICAGO, March pa statement was
given currency yesterday morning that seri-
GUS trouble was brewing in the Northwestern
Traffic association, which would probably
prevent contamination of the pool. Presi-
dent Gable, of the Rock Island, General
Freight Agent Bird, of the St. Paul. and Gen
eral Freight Agent Ripley, of the Burlington,
pronounced the rumor to be without the
slightest foundation. They had no intima-
ton that anything had arisen to disturb the
serenity of affairs. The general freight
agents will meet to-day at Commissioner
Carman's Office to arrange further details of
the internal workings of the pool.
The eastern pool is in bad way and is
likely to be broken I'D.

DR.. G. F. Hewitt, secretary of the state
board Of heath, returned home from Mem
phis, Tennessee yesterday. He went south
under the direction of Governor Hubbard to
investigate the mouth and hoof diseases in
cattle rumored to have developed in malig-
nantly infection form in parts of Iowa, Hi
nois, Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas and Wy
oming.
In an interview to-day the secretary said
there was nothing in the reported spread or
even in the existence of the terrible disease
among cattle in the southwest. The rumor
was founded upon number of cases OF in
fammation around the hoofsof cattle, caused
by lack of care and want of dry stables; an
inflammation similar to that which is developed
on the hands of some persons causing the
loss of finger nail.
His trip was, however, fruitful in results,
as an understanding was arrived at by which
therewill be complete cooperation sesured in
the end throughout the west, by which all
cases Of malignant diseases among cattle
will be at once reported, and the most
efficient measures taken at once to prevent
the spread Of the disease. The secretary sent
his report to Governor Hubbard to-day
showing the results of his investigation and
plans for preventing spread of diseases if any
shnnld annear in the fnt1ra

miles from Seguin, and made inquiries as to
where the father and mother of the family
were gone and when they would return,
whether the little boy, about 10 years old,
was the only one at home, and whether the
dogs would bite, &c. The little boy having
suspicious that Pearley was prospecting to
make raid on his fathers smoke house,
loaded an old musket with large slug, and
