MOON BETWEEN

Conditions Favorable to Observe
Years Most Interesting
Astronomical Event,
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Northfeld, Mimi, Aug. 30.-Condi-
lions were favorable for the observa-
ton at Goodsell this morning Of the
last half Of the total eclipse of the
sun. A little cloud on the horizon and
low hill made the sun rise later than
the predicted time.
The first sight Of the horn Of the
crescent was secured at 5:35, and was
preceded by shadows and streams of
light of most beautiful effect. We
nus, looking on the western horn of
the crescent, appeared first and in two
minutes the whole crescent was in
indicated in the drawing in Saturday Is
Journal, but the lines Joining the
horns Of the crescent were perpendio-
ular to the horizon instead Of parallel,
owing to an error made in DRAWN
the horizon line for the diagram.
The maximum observation had al
ready taken place when the sun rose.
AS the eclipse passed off, the moon I'M
covered four. distinct groups of sun
spots, about twenty-one spot centera
and light spot from $4,000 to 10000
miles in diameter. The last trace Of
the black notch produced by the edge
of the moon on the sun 3 disk was
noted at six hours, thirty minutes and
forty seconds.
Two photographs were taken by Pro.
lessor Wilson, who says that If condi.
lions were as favorable in Spain
where the sun was near it's meridian
the results will be valuable.

Special to The Journal.
Mankato, Mimi, Aug. 30.-R. D.

in rooming house in Chicago, Was
Mankato's leading business man, and
the account of his death is a great
shock to citizens as well as to his fami-
~: He was born in Maryland town.
SHIP snip, otgego county, N. Y, Dec. IA,
1887. His parents were farmers and
their ancestry went back to the colonial
days. Some were prominent in the
early history Of New England.
After Is young Hubbard started out
to earn his own living, having received
such education as the common schools
afforded. He was in turn engaged sur
veying, clerking, farming, trading with
immigrants and raising tobacco. He
engaged in the grocery business at Cor
ry, Pa, in 1866, with capital Of $4,000
Then he came to Mankato and erect
ed warehouse and engaged in grain
buying. Later he erected flour mill
it has 1900 barrels daily capacity. -
He became the principal stakeholder
Of the Hubbard & Palmer Elevator
company, which has forty elevators on
the Omaha road. He helped to start
the linseed oil works, and managed it's
business eleVen years, IL lACer Delng aD-
sorbed by the trust. He assisted start
ing the inseed oil works at Sioux City,

to the trust.
Mr.. Hubbard was alderman one term

sisters.
He had been in failing health several
years, and had not been feeling as we'll
as usual the past few days, but disre-
garded all danger signals, and contin-
ued to devote his entire time and en-
ergy to mis- business affairs. He went
to Chicago Monday evening, expecting
to be in Milwaukee today and to return
to Mankato Thursday.
His remains will be brought to Man
kato tomorrow at noon, accompanied by
a Chicago friend, John A. Heusner, a
business man there.

SEEN AT UNIVERSITY
Professor Leavenworth Takes Time of
Eclipse's End.

Francis P: Leavenworth, professor Of
astronomy at the state university, came
in from his summer home at Excelsior
last night and opened the university
observatory: His telescope was trained
on the opening between the library and
the cold main' from an early hour
this morning, but tho the sun was sched-
uled to rise at 5:26, it did not get above
the campus oaks until after 6 'clock,
| and in consequence Professor Leaven-
| worth was unable to make any observa-
ton of the eclipse in it's early stages
He was able, however, to note the time
the observation ended, which was at
1872 star tim tme GT spP2g poF at
| conjunction with observations else
| where, will be of value in determining
| the exact position Of the moon during
| the eclipse. " -. =
The sun, as it rose thru the mists
| which obscured the horizon, could be
observed with the naked eye and pre-
| curious. The indentation Of the moon s
| shadow entered the SUMS disk from
| the left and at the time of greatest
observation extended beyond its center.
Due to Refraction.
Instead Of appearing as true cres-
cent, the eclipsed sun had curiously
| ldGCClCu opPOtIAe"ACOS 90 - ooA1lO viz uc =
taken the two horns of the crescent and
pressed them together; Professor
Leavenworth explained that this was
every cry morning, due to the Tefract!on q
the earth 5 atmosphere, but that it was
emphasized by the mist on the horizon
and the fact that part of the sun was
| obscured.
This same atmospheric condition pre-
vented closer noting of the time OF
conclusion, as the outlines Of the moon :
decidedly hazy when seen. thru the pow
erful ten-inch telescope in the univer
sity observatory. Had the eclipse beer
. visible here at a later hour, it would
have been possible to have marked its
duration to a fraction Of a second:
The morning was very favorable tc
the observer without telescope as
the mist on the horizon made smoked
glass unnecessary during the early anc
most advanced stages Of the eclipse
and all those who were energetic enough
to get up at the inconvenient hour the
sun chose for it's exhibition, were wei
repaid for their sacrifice Of sleep.

The enlarged treaty with Eng

Japan now stands in position

She said he had come to the place
with a you.Gg woman, who. after re-

The Westminster Gazette concludes
with reference to the Anglo-Japanese
treaty saying: zss..
"The alliance is to be renewed and
extended to wider scope than it has
yet had.' - ."
The paper expresses the hope that the
extended alliance may be one which in
the long run may be compatible with
more friendly relations between Great
Britain and Russia.
Mikado's Act Shows Wisdom.
Speaking of Japan s waiving of the
indemnity clause the Globe says:
cit has been an act of extraor.
binary courage and magnanimity on the
part Of the emperor and his council. In
the act, which seems justified by the re-
suits, the emperor of Japan has given
the world lesson in moderation and, as
we believe the result will show, IN prac-
tical WISDOM
The Globe also claims that Japan
gained what she went to war for, and
says; ,;,,a,rons foa,;na
of the old samurai, there must have
appeared something sordid in continu-
ing the conflict, not for glory or for the
safety Of the empire, but for cash
payment, which has assumed the form
we are in the dark. We have no glim-
mer Of the secret conditions, which in
all probability form part of the terms
of peace. Nor do we know how far
the situation was affected by the Anglo
Japanese treaty.

Bergen, Norway, Aug. This por-
ton of the west coast Of Norway may
fairly be called the cradle Of Norwegian
civilization From these fjords issued
the dauntless vikings who conquered
England, Scotland and Ireland; who
gained foothold in and gave their
name to northern France; who settled
all the islands Of the north Atlantic
and even discovered America 500 years
before Columbus lived Hither they
brought with their captives and booty
the seeds Of that civilization which has
made Norway unique among the nations
of the world. Here It was that the bat
tie was fought in S72 that. united the
seven earldoms in one kingdom under
Harold Haarfager-a kingdom that still
exists and is one Of the Oldest in
Europe. It was at Bergen that that
greatest Of medieval monopolies, the
Hanseatic League, established its north
ernmost depot, whence it dominated all
trade il those waters, Bergen is thus

many of Norway's greatest men have
come from this very section. Christian
Nicholson, the great prime minister;
whose name is now on every lip, is a
Bergen man. Ole Bull, greatest Of vio-
linists, was born and lived here, and
you may see his statue, not unlike that
