Nine-tenths of all the ailments tojtrbieh the human family is heir, are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of '-hility of the brain, spinal marrow and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied, and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disapjear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must Bujjplyall the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it a the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary fbod does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nc rves.

WANT A WESTKBN MAN. ThofyowTork Herald Figures Out Democratic Presidential Chances. Tho Now York Iierald presents a table showing the Presidential preferences of tbe Democracy in the various States. Tbe tablo shows that tho masi of the nomocracy Is looking to the West for a man to lead them to victory. The figures are: Hill, 285 i Cleveland, 269; Western man, 850. Mr. Cleveland seems to be the choice of fifteen States California. Connecticut, Delaware, Btalne, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Virginia, Washington. West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Twelve of these are llepubltean, and only three are Democratic. Senator Hill Is the choice of ton States Colorado. Florida, Idaho. Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania. South Carolina, and Texas. Seven are Democratic and three Republican. But tbe real choice of the Democracy is shown In sixteen states. They want a Western man aud are; Arkansas, Georgia. Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri. Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, .North Dakota. Tennessee, and Wyoning. Elulit are Democratic and eight Republican. Their 350 delegates stand solid for a Wontern man, and representing over one-third of the convention, against the other two-thirds hopelessly divided, will probably have a great effect In shaping the convention's action. Alabama, Louisiana, and Oregon are. It Is said, likely to be divided between Hill and Cleveland.

JT'KIKLEY ACT VALID. Its Constitutionality la Upheld by the Federal Supreme Court, The Mc Kinley act was declared constitutional and Speaker Beed's rulings upheld by the United BUtcs Supremo Court.

The court also holds that the reciprocity and sugar bounty sections of the bill are constitutional. It was contended that tho reciprocity section was unconstitutional because it delegated legislative power to tho oxecutlve. Chief Justice Fuller arid Justice Lamar dissented from the opinion of tho ourt. The Supreme Court also decided in the wontsd schedule caseof The I'n'.ted States vs. Ballln, Joseph & Co., from the Circuit Court of New York, that the law Is valid.

Tho receiver was ablo to gain possession of only one barn, and from this ho started twelve cars, manned by strikers, which wore received with wild cheers and were decorated with flags. Later a procession of 2,090 laborers paraded the streets headed by the street car brotherhood and were received with cheers en route.

CRUSHED BY THE CARS.

SEVEN KILLED IN A RAILWAY COLLISION. A Passenger Engine Crashes Into a Train Containing Hundreds of Milwaukee Workmen and Many Are Mangled Reform tjehool Burned. Met Sudden Duath. The absent-mindedness of a switchman, or the physical imvosslblUty of hie being In two places at one time, resulted in the accident on the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Hallway a Milwaukee, which cau&ed the Instant death of seven men. According to a dispatch givinfr particulars, the accident occurred at the foot of I7th street a few mlcutes before 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The fact, that the trains were moving itt a com" paratlveiy Blow rate of epeed alone prevented a railway horror which would have counted its dead by the scores, All the Killed and injured were employes of the railroad company and returning from their wotk at the Wee': Milwaukee shops on the shop train, which consists of seven old -fashioned coaches. The train had just p issed 19th street when the Watertown special came thundering along on a parallel track. Just before It overtook tie sbon train u white-faced switchman rusted out, waving his arms, and the next instant the Watertown special took the switch and plunged into the rear coaches ot tho Bhop train. Three of the Bhop train cottchea wers toppled over and ground into the cinders of the roadbed. Several earsoa tho passenger train left the ralln, but were not overturned. The men In the overturned cars struggled to free them selves. The frightened passengers of the Watertown special recovered their senses and rushed from the ears and ii -side of two minutes SsW men w re nt work rescuing the men from the wrecked cars. Many were out a id bleeding, but by the time the police patrol wagon arrived mos': of them had recovered sufficiently to walk or be i.'arrleil away by friends. Thoso who were killed sufft rod almoiit instant death. They were men who attempted to jump from the side doors oi the old coaches and were onioned io death when the cars toppled over on them. The bodies were all quickly taken from the wreckage and convey ml to the morgue. The picture at the wreck was one which few people could look upon without a shudder. Beneath the overturned cars, which had been raised with levers sufficiently to release the bodies of tho dead, were strewn pieces of Scsli, whila the tracks were stained with the biooa of tho unfortunates. Here was a crush ed hat, and there a battered tllncer-pall. The workmen who escaped huirlodiy wont to their homes orthrfr friendn. and the ground was soon abandoned to the employes ot the company engaged in clearing tne tracKs saia trying to ascortuln the exact cause of the accident. The latter proved an ensy task. Will Battels, the switchman ;n ohargo. went to Superintendent M. Kezina, asked his advice and then ge.ve himself up to the police, to whom he admitted that lie had left three switches open in the performance of his duty . his only excuse being that he forgot to close them. H e was looked up pending Investigation. There was great Indignation among the neighbors of the dead, who talked about hanging the switchman responsible for tne duiaster. row of she mends of 'lie victims heard of the icoldnnt until the remains were brought; to tho oity, and the most affecting scenes were enacted at tne morgue when the work or idemiflcatlon was going on. A slnguhtr feature of the accident was that iiobocy upon tho express tram was injure -1. The railway officials maintained their usual policy of refusltiir to give out ary information concernln.j the wreck, end tho agents of the claim department, who have oharge of the work of settling damage claims against; the comptny tor Injuries, were upon the ground almost as soon as the local police officers. Barrels, the switohman who Is held r e sponsible for the oause of the wreck, was seen at the Con trad Police Station. He hits two men under him its assistants, unci tho three, according to tho statements of Bartels, are kept so bauv that It frequently becomes necessary for him to rely upon his subordinates to sie tnat tne switches are in the proper po sltion. He admits he turned two of tie switches, and may have left them open, He Is twenty-nine years old. He says that he is anxious w make all tie amends which are4n Mb power, or wtl.jh the law may require ol! him ir a criminal way. REFORM SCHOOL FUELED BY GIfU.l1, Inmates of an Indtanii Institution Burn It Down to Cats Their Uheny. It Is likely that Gov. Chas may oull a special session of the Indiana Leirls laturo to arrange tot the rebuilding of the Women b Reform School whlon burned Tuesday night. The building was entirely deetroyiid. The fire was discovered a few toLiutes ai'toraurper In the laundry of tee reform department. The prison department wes the lest to go, and the crashing of the Iron oages as the supports gave way was heard tor many a mile. The institution was situated in the center of a flve-uure field on the eastern edge of Indianapolis. It was a model prison and one of the most noted in the country. From those confined in the prison department the most trouble was anticipated. Miss Kelly, the superintendent, went into the hallwiy, and in a loud tone called the attention of the prisoners to the fact that the building was on lire. "I am going to unlock i;hese calls, but I want you to promise me that you will stand by me and not one attempt, to escape." The women with o;ie voice promised this, and the doors were opened. Of the Inmates of this department there are eight who have been sentenced tor life and a half-dozen or more for long terns. So far as known no.:,e ot the prisoners made any attempt t;o escajie, though some of the reform girls were discovered roaming about the streets of the oity, and they were sent to the police station. The Are was of inoen zllary origin, three girls, Imogene Thompson, Mory Stevens and Lydia Xinseiey, It is claimed by other inmateB, having formed a conspiracy to free themselves la this way, If possible, by creating a stampede. The loss will exceed $300,000. Keeley Mailt Speak. BrcHXtORiDx of oold may have done some killing, but fusel oil is still away ahead. Pittsburg Times. Db.
