AID rnon mr. SraTr.

A Pennsylvania paper says that great
pressure as being brought r. bear ON
Governor Beaver. Of Pennsylvania. TO
call the legislature in extra session for
the purpose Of aiding the Johustown
sufferers. This pressure is probably
chargeable with the calling out OF a
regiment Of the State National Guard
to do duty at Johnstown. Theiirstan
better judgment of the State authorl-
ties was that there is noneed for troops,
and it is to be regretted we think that
there has been departure from that
judgment.

IT is not altogether courteous IN
Father Dam, author Of Maxims, Phil
osopher and Druid Of the Press, to call
Western contemporary a weird igno-
ramus" The phrase is too much mix
ed with dialect of Morse land and
words Of Seigfried, Neibuslunges, Sauer
Kraut and Celtic legend OF Poteen and
Ossian.
"Ignoramus" is good, and when
properly applied, no ono Will assert
that it has not a good use as generic
term ef high import to designate idiots
OF high and low degree.
"Ignoramus' is classic term Of
broad comprehension, but there are
classiGcations of idiots, and the New
York Sun should not mar the spirit OF
progress of reform by mixing up the
weird IDIOTS" with the aesthetic "Ig-

A st. PAUL gentleman tells of a lawyer by
the name of Hine who once had tho reputa-
ton of being the most artistic and prolific
liar in the United States. Whenever Hines
visited a friend, the friend would say, "Now,
Hines, sit down and tell us a lie" The
lawyer would always vehemently protest
that he was as little addicted to lying as was
the father Of his country" But In n few
moments he would begin to talk, and when
he began TO talk he invariably began to de
velop a remarkable talent for lying. One
timo in n company of gentlemen of which
the st. Paul man was one he solemnly stated
that an old sow that he kept on his premises
had just given birth to a litter of twenty
three pigs. This was too much for any Of
them to believe, and they expressed their
doubts us to the veracity of his statement.
Still he stuck to it. Finally says one of the
party; Come, Hines, well go over 10 your
house with you and tnke n look ut that litter
of t~wenty-threo pigs" ooh" says Hines. 81

BURNED IN THE WRECK.
Horrible Accident Through a
Misplaced Switch.
The Mail, Baggage and Parlor
Car ON Fire.
Two Train Hands Burned to a
Crisp.

BANGOR, Me-. Feb. GA wreck on
the European & North American railroad
near Boyd's station is reported here.
VIM. ID. Mudgett, railway postal clerk
John Campbell, English mail clerk, and
Harry Goodman, fireman, were killed and
burned in the wreck. Angel, engineer,
was seriously injured. No passengers are
reported seriously injured up to this time.
The cars caught fire from the locomotive.
The mail, baggage and parlor car were
burned. together with the express. mail
matter. and baggage.
The Story of the Wreck.
Mail Clerk Caleb Palmer of Bangor ar
rived here on the evening train from st.
John. lie was on the mail car in the
railroad accident and received some severe
bruises. He tells the story of the accident
as follows:
When the train reached Borrod's Mill,
the scene OF the accident, he was sitting
on a table in the front car. Nj. q. Mud
gett of Dexter, chief clerk, was near him.
with his feet on the stove, and John
Campbell, clerk. was on the table. When
the shock came the car went over in a
heap. rolling over several times. The
train consisted of the engine, mail car,
baggage car, Pullman car and three pass
enRer cars. The first five left the track,
but the other three kept on running upon
the side track. The mail car, baggage
car. Pullman and smoker caught fire like
a fash. being entirely consumed in fif-
teen minutes.
The train had been running at full
speed and a misplaced switch caused the
derailment. Palmer, Mudgett and Camp
bell were held like in a wise by the tim
bers of the shattered car and Mudgett was
under the stove. Campbell's back was
broken. The dense smoke from the burn
ing cars and the steam from the engine
boiler hung over the mail car. All shouted
for help. Mudgett cried to Palmer that
he was being burned and babe him good
by. Palmer thrust one arm through the
opening and was seen by Coz ductor Chase,
who attempted to pull him out, but was
unable to do SO. Three others Joined him
and finally succeeded in removing him in
a bruised condition. They were unable to
reach Mudeett and Campbell before they
we're burned to death. Henry Goodman,
fireman, was killed and Julius Angel, en-
glneer, was cut severely. but none of the
passengers were hurt.

In the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-Aiter some
sparring the senate took up Hoar's reso-
luton as to the alleged election outrages.
Daniels spoke in opposition to the resolu-
ton, said he had some newspaper extracts
and sent them to the clerks desk. The
clerk proceeded to read newspaper ex-
tracts descriptive of the negro riots in
Norfolk, Va, and of the shooting of a
policeman by a negro in Charlottesville,
etc. The reading was interrupted by
Harris, who moved that the senate pro-
coed to executive business. Pending
action on that motion various house
amendments to private pension bills were
presented and c%oncurred in. When these
matters were disposed of Harris withdrew
his motion and Daniels concluded his re-
marks.
HOar said there was abundant constitu.
tional authority for the proposed investi.
CATION. As to the spectre of state rights
sought to be called up, there was no such
question involved in the resolution. 1t
was the government generally which the
senator from Virginia and his associates
was trying TO break down in this coun-
try. That senator had asked what facts
were depended upon in bringing forward
the proposition. Did not that senator
know that within SIX weeks the man who
was contesting a seat in the other house
had been shot down while he was making
his contest? Did he not know the history
of political offences all over certain states
in the South2 Gen. Sheridan had de-
clared some years since that more Repub-
lIcans had been murdered for their political
opinions in Louisiana than had fallen in
battle on both sides in the Mexican war.
He denied there was anything sectional
in his proposition. or that it meant an at
tack upon the state of Louisiana. If
the charges we're true, hat state was "
ing bound and helpless at the feet of a
band of conspirators.
Finally, after speaking five hours,
Daniels yielded for a motion to go into
executive session. The motion, however,
was not passed and the senate ad-
journed.
