A Malicious Committee.

There is a committee of the Republi-
can Senate of New York sitting in that
ctty, investigating its Democratic gov
ernment. It Is engineered by a man
named Ives, who is the henchman of
ex-Mayor Grace, of Peruvian and other
malodorous notOriety. Ives IL a rascal
but that rather helps than hurts him, in
his place as pilot of the inquiry of the
Senate Republican committee into
Democratic misdoing. He Is the sort of
man well adapted to nose it out, but vet
Who IL not TO be believed further than
~ proofs.
The committee has been successful In
'uucovering gross abuses in the sheriff,s
omce; but has now come to grief in a
personal attack upon Mayor Grant,
which IL % obviously unfounded as to
make 1t clear that 1t has been malici-
oSsly made. The story of q per-
nonal enemy was taken under oath by
the committee, charging the mayor with
seeking to bribe the board of aldermen
come yeaS ago with fund Of $50, 900,
- conhrm him as park commissioner ;
md charging also that the mayor when
sheriff divided profits with Mr.. Croker,
ehs Tammany leader, giving Croker's
uttle daughter s25, 900 in the shape of a
present. When the committee took
ehh witness testimony, in the absence
efyhs accused mayor, it adjourned, obyi.
eosly intending the charges to affect the
peblic Judgment until the next meeting.
The Newspaper reporters, however,
vent into the investigating business on
shslr own account, and speedily got
enough antidote to correct the poison.

A Ball of Electrlc Fire

During Sunday afternoons storm the
% foot Flagstaff about fifty feet away from
Lille Saving station 2, on Sandy Hook,
was struck by ball of fire as large as
barrel head. The topmast and main
spar were shattered from top to bottom
Surfman Joseph Riddle sat at window
and saw the ball shoot from the Eastern
sky, preceded by bright white light which
Illuminated the vicinity of the station.
Riddle noticed black streak run down
the topmast and the ball of fire struck the
mast with report like that of a cannon.
1t did not linger As balls of electric light
sometimes do, but disappeared like flash
Of lightning. No thunder or lightning had
been heard or seen before or aflerward, and
this did not resemble lightning.
Captain Jack Edwards and his crew were
dumbfOunded. The former believes IL was
a meteor, but 1t left no trace. Two surfmen
say they have seen such fire balls at sea In
tropical water, but never hereabouts. The
flagstaff was 30 thoroughly shattered that
i was easily pulled over by means Of the
halyards.

MEDIciNEMAN Meat Axe, OF the Sho-
shone Indians has u mysterious rival. 1t
will be remembered that Mr.. Axo pre-
dicted a grent flood and sent out runners to
assemble all tho Indians In the Wind
River mountains, In Wyoming, 80 that
they might descend and possess tho earth
after the whites had been swept away by
the waters Now a strange rumor comes
from just over the Montana border, from
the land OF the Cheyennes and Crows that
these Indians are wildly excited over re-.
port that great leader will -ssas,i appear
who will roll the YC;riid- over on tho white
race u thcy pcfdst In prosecuting the In
,dtiiSaAifS This leader, strange to say, Is de-
scribod AZ whito man who will side with
tho Indians, and they call him the Indian
Christ. Tho commandant at Fort Custer,
Montana, has sent force to watch the In
dians who are holding pow-wows and
religious meetings preparing for tho APP
poarance Of the white leader who Is
said to be In the Big Horn mountains.
This looks very much like a plot of
some rascally medicine man with white
confederate who is determined to outdo
Mr.. Meat Axe at all hazards. Tho food
idea was grand enough, but what is IL to
casually rolling the earth over on the
whites7 There IL something very pathetic

of any struggle OF theirs against white

their own wrongs, proud and defiant

the trial of persons arrested under 1t
will be before military tribunal and ac-
cording 10 military forms. The effect of
the December decree was to muxzle the

ment of several members ofthe provisional
cabinet, who favored liberty of the press
the papers have been very bold In their
criticism of public affairs. DIR. Lobo, ex-
minister Of the interior, has published n
letter insisting that there is mysterious
aud well organized conspiracy against
the government which II has not been able
to penetrate. He notes that the alarming
reports that from time TO time spring up
originate simultaneously at distant points
and spread with great rapidity.

Henry w. Blair, Father of the Measure on
Which the Senate is About to Vote.
1t appears to be exceedingly probable
that Senator Blair will be supported by
the United States senate in the matter of
his educational bill. As long & as
April, 1884, the same august body voted
in the affirmative on his proposal to ap-
propriate S77 900 600 for public educa-
ton. His bill failed to become law, and
he has worked hard since that time to
convince the country and the Federal
legislature that his idea of educati onal
sta ~tesmanship is the correct one. Should
the senate pass the bill now before it, as
seems likely, both the friends and foes of
Senator Blair IS policy will watch its fur
Their progress with absorbing interest. It
must be remembered that the house of
representatives at Washington has a Re-
publican majority, and that President
Harrison is himself Of the same political
party as Senator Blair. To say the least,
there are many things more unlikely than
that Senator Blair's bill, which appro-
PIRATES scores of millions of dollars for
the education of the people, may become
law.
Mr.. Blair has been a United States
senator nearly eleven years. He was
born at Campton, N H., December 6,
1884. Both parents died when he was
young. His education was gained at the
common school, two terms at the Ply
mouth academy and one at the New
Hampshire Conference seminary. He
was admitted TO the bar at Plymouth in
1859. The next year he was elected
F@- n - 49,
Upon the outbreak of the war he entered
the army, and was appointed major of
the Fifteenth New Hampshire volunteers,
of which regiment he was soon after
wards made Northumberland. In 1866
he was elected member of the New
Hampshire house of representatives, and
of the state senate in l867-6S. He served
in the Forty -fourth and Forty-ff:h con-
crosses, but declined denomination.
