STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.-A dispatch
from Bethel, Fauquier county, gives
the following account of the killing of
two men by lightning, mention ofwhich
was made in the GAZETTE of yesterday:
"While Leroy Blackwell, farmer
near here, and four assistants were tax
ing refuge in large barn from the storm
yesterday evening, the cupola of the
building was struck by lightning and
torn to pieces, while the current was
divided, passing down and splintering
two large posts. Two of the men,
Brady and Allison, were instantly kill
ed. Brady was large fleshy man, and
red streaks were left all over his per-
son, very similar to forked lightning.
His body was black in an hour after the
stroke. He leaves a wife and two little
children utterly destitute.

THE SYCAMORE BANNER.-The Saga
more is the swell uptown New York
Tammany Club. Richard Croker,
Commissioner Gilroy, Judge White and
a thousand other big braves who live in
the Harlem region are members of
it. They have just completed a unique
campaign design, which is pronounced
the finest political effort in that line
ever made in that city. 1t is an cleo
trio banner, made out Of 541 incandes-
cent lamps, and starts new idea in a
pleasing and scientific display of politi-
cal fervor. The clubhouse is four sto-
ries in height, and the whole front of
the building, except that of the first
floor, is covered with incapdescent cleo
trio lights, which form decidedly nov
ell and brilliant campaign banner. AT
the top is the star of victory, composed
of 141 separate white globes. Immedi-
ately below that is the name of the
club, aSagamore," in red. white and
blue, and the space below is filled with
the candidates names in white lights
of double the candle-power of the 9th
ers. Tho whole is finished with bor-
der of red, white and blue. The
Stuyvesant Club in the next district
have given an order for another cleo
trio banner. 1t will be in the form of
an American flag, in red, white and
blue incandescent lights.

SIGNS AND PAss-wORDs.-A most important
matter was disposed of at Toronto, Ont. at
the recent session of the Roman Catholic I'm
ion of the Knights of st. John. The adop-
ton of code of signs and passwords was
often proposed and discussed at conventions
in the United States, but was always opposed
by any of the clergymen who happened to be
delegates In consequence of the general drift
of clerical opinion, as expressed at the con-
vention. no formal request was ever made of
the clergy for permission. A petition, how
ever was recently circulated among the MEM
bers in favor of this addition to the constitu-
ton, setting forth its advantages 1t was
largely signed, aud on Saturday it was pre-
sented to Archbishop Walsh, supreme spirit
ual adviser of the order.
The archbishop replied by letter. approving
the principle and giving his sanction to it.
The letter, when read to the convention,
evoked grea. applause. The convention
adopted a resolution instsuc.ing the supreme
board of trustees to draw mp system OF signs
and passwords. The letter read as follows:
''You may, i'll my opinion, adopt such pass
words and countersigns as will protect your
meetings and deliberations from intrusions by
those who are not members, provided you
agree that such passwords and countersigns
may be made known to rhecompetcnt cccles-
iastical authority if asked for"

A JOINT resolution was introduced III
Congress Yesterday for the creation ola
non-partisan tariff commission to con
slider the whole question Of customs
revenue. and to report to the next Con-
cress. The gist of the resolution lies in
its tail, which provides that each OF the
ten members of the commission shall
receive yearly salary Of $500. For
the good OF tariff reform, Of low tariff,
and of the democratic party, it is hoped
no such resolution MS the one referred
TO may be passed. There have been
several similar commissions, none OF
which has ever benefited any body eX-
cent the members thereof and their
clerks. The democrats have large
majority in the lower branch of Con-
gress. No low tariff bill they might
pass could become a law. with & repub-
lican President and Senate to oppose
them. But they could, and should,
Y,ass a bill to remove the tariff tax on
all raw material and necessaries of life
before they adjourn, in order to show
the vast majority of the voters OF the
country, the poor people, what they
would DO for their relief if they
should have control of all the branches
of the government.
