"Wliy isiie So Irritable." This question is often heard and near ly as often unanswered.

It is not always remembered, as it should be, that the occasion of ill-tem-por and irritability is often to be found in the physical condition of the persons affected. What is the use of trying to "harmonize" a man whose liver has gone back on him? If a man is tortured with rheumatism, how can he be expected to be affable and agreeable? Can a confirmed dyspeptic be expeoted to be cheerful and always ready to tell a funny story? The only way to remove the difficulty is to get at the cause. Dyspepsia, rheumatism, impure blood and liver troubles yield to Hood's Sarsaparilla this is why it is an effective tranquilizer, a peaceful messenger, and a preventive of domestic quarrels.

TWENTY-SEVEN PERSONS ARE

KILLED IN A WRECK.

BUT TWO OF- THESE KOASTED ALT I E.

THE SMASH WAS ON THE GRAND TRUNK NEAR BATTLE CREEK,

The Killed and Wounded Were EicurcnrgloiilntN Hound for the World'*

Fair—The Dead Unidentified—Conductor and Engineer Under Arrest.

BATTLE CKKKK, Mich., Oct. 21.—On the stone basement of the morgue are the charred and blackened remains of twenty-five human beings. Another corpse, mutilsited but not burned, lies on a wooden slab. At the Nichols sanit il ium are more than a score of women and men, cut. bruised and mangled. In the Grand Trunk railway yards, at the east of town, are a heap of ashes, two wrecked engines and a row of ruined passenger coaches, burned to black shells.

Two trains met in a head-enil collision here at 3:45 in the morning. One was a Raymond & Whitcomb special excursion train, made up of heavy sleepers. It left Chicago at 8 o'clock and was filled with passengers residing in New York and Boston. This train should have waited at the double tracks for No. 9. The latter is called the Pacific express. It was due here at 1:35, but was more than two hours late.

The special from Chicago stopped at the double tracks. The engineer says that he understood iliat No. 9 had passed. He started to pull out. bout a quarter of a mile to the east are the shops and railway yards, called Nichols station. Here there is a sharp curve in the track. It was just the beginning of a cold, gray daybreak. A drizzling rain had begun to fall. The speciall.rain had gathered a speed of twenty miles an hour.

At the curve it met the Pacific express. Both engines rushed into each other. The Pacific express had thirteen cars. In front were a baggage car and a mail car, then came four day coaches, old flimsy affairs, pressed into service for World's Fair traveL Behind these were the sleepers. Strange to say, the baggage car and mail car escaped. The four day coaches were the wreck links in the chain.

The first one, unlucky No. 13, telescoped into the one behind. The other two jammed totrether end to end. Then the broken lamps set fire to the wreck of these four cars.

Some persons crawled out badly injured. Some escaped almost unhurt, but twenty-five were burned to a crisp in the quick and hungry blaze. It was almost an hour before the flames were extinguished.

Of the twenty-seven dead bodies in morgue conjectures can only be made as to the identity of seven. Twenty remain entirely unidentified. Those identified by letters or articles in their clothing or by other means are as follows:

VAN DUSEN, C. C., of Sproutbrook, N. V.. died at the hospital. VAN DUSEN, MRS. C. C., of Sproutbro/k, N. Y., burned to death after the wreck and before she could be extricated.

HENRY, VV. W., of Woonsocket, R. I. burned to a crisp. McKENZlE, MRS. F. R., of Middle town, Conn. burned to a crisp.

McGARVEY, T. A., of Ontario, Canada: mangled and burned to peatli. BEARiJSLEY, .1. W., of' Watkins, N. Y. burned and mangled.

F. H. SMITH, Fort Plain, N. Y. died at hospital. Immediately after the accident the maimed and injured were conveyed to the Nichols Memorial hospital in this city. The following is the complete list of the injured now at the hospital:

A STRAIGHT SHOT.

Which Made the Congressman 'Wish H« Badn't. Asked Questions. The congressman was telling stories. "It was on me, once," he said: "I had a friend who was dry as a hu morist, but not always dry as a drinker, and when he was full he did foolish things. One of these was to buy a jackass for S500, and when he sobered up and knew what he had done he sold him back to the original seller for S400. Naturally tho loss of a hundred made him sore and he did not like to be twitted about it. One day I saw him on a mule waiting in front of a store and I spoke to him. He was just full enough to be serious." 'Hello,' I said, and he responded with a nod. 'You are a judge of that sort of animal you are riding,aren't you?' 'I don't know that I am particularly so,' he said earnestly. 'I thought you were in the business.' 'No, I ain't.' 'Didn't you buy a jack for 8500 not long ago?' "The crowd that had gathered giggled, and he looked more serious than ever. 'Yes, I did,'he answered solemnly. 'What did you do with him?' I asked, with a wink at the crowd to be ready. "He looked at me solemnly. 'I helpc-d elect liira to congress,' lie said, without a smile, and the howl that went up made me seek shelter in the nearest place that could be found."

A FLAMELESS LAMP.

Boiling Oil on Phosphorous Will Make One. To instantly obtain alight sufficient to read the time by a watch or clock at night without danger of setting things on fire is an easy matter. Take an oblong vial of the clearest of glass, put into it a piece of phosphorous about the size of a pea, pour upon this some pure olive oil, heated to the boiling point, the bottle to be filled one-third full—then cork tightly. To use the light remove the cork, allow the air to enter, then recork. The whole empty space in the bottle will then become luminous and the light obtained will be a good one. As soon as the light becomes dim its power can be increased by opening the bottle and allowing a fwsta supply of air to enter.

In very cold wwatlna 4 is sometimes necessary to heat the vial between the hands to increase the fluidity of the oil, and one bottle will last a whole winter. This ingenious contrivance can be carried in the pocket and is used by watchmen in Paris in all the magazines where explosives or inflammable materials are stored.

The Indian Had Iliin.

Quinnemore, formerly chief of the Coeur d'Alene Indians has a fine farm of 167 acres on the south side of the Spokane river, about a dozen miles above Spokane, Wash., and the other day the tax-gatherer thought it would be a very proper and desirable thing to tax it a good round sum. So he came smilingly with his bilL But Quinnemore was prepared for him, even on such an unexpected mibsion. He brought forth a paper which in part read thus: "This patent is issued upon the express condition that the title hereby conveyed shall not be subject to taxation of any character, but shall remain inalienable and not subject to taxation for the period of twenty years from the date hereof, as approved January IS, 1881." The assessor withdrew and apologized, not smiling.

A Cable Car Stopped by a Mule. It is seldom that a cable car gets the worst of it in a collision, but a mule proved victor lately in Washington. As a car coming east was just about to enter the curve at Washington Circle, a large black mule wandered ap street and crossed the track. Then he turned and was coming back, with the car but a few yards away. The gripman did hia best, but the two collided. The mule was knocked about four feet, but landed safely, and walked away whisking his tail. Not so the cable car. It had become safely locked on the track, and it was fully ten minutes before they could unloose and start it

The Deacon's Doubt.

Someone came past Deacon Podberry'B the other night about 10 o'clock, and was surprised to find that good man carefully examining his woodpile. "What «je you looking for?" asked the passe* by. "Just 'mining this load of wood to see if was all right" answered the good |an. "I bought it from Brother Lrown yesterday, and tonight in prayer-meeting he called himself so many kinds of a miserable sinner that I thought maybe it was the qualil^r of this load of wood which was weighing on his mind."

A Meeting of the Board.

"There will be a meeting of the board," said the preacher, "at the conclusion of this service." So the official brethren of the church gathered around the pastor after the benediction was pronounced. Among them was a stranger, whom it was necessary as delicately as possible to remind that his presence was not needed. "I beg your pardon," said the stranger "I understood this was to be a meeting of the bored, of which I claim to be one."

REPEAL IS SURE NOW.

CLEVELAND HAS NOT BACKED DOWN AND WILL NOT

Stands by His Message—Responsibility Now Rests With the Senate to Do Its Duty—Voorhees' Bill Sure to Pass.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.—On the very best authority your correspondent was assured yesterday that seven or eight senators who had been occupied the greater part of yesterday in an effort to bring about an agreement among the democratic senators upon some compromise measures which should take the place of the pending Voorhees bill called upon Secretary Carlisle and submitted to him the outlines of a measure which they thought the democrats and the silver republicans might all be induced to support.

Secretary Carlisle pointed out his objections to the proposed measure and showed wherein its practical operation would be injurious. He also informed the senators that he favored unconditional repeal .•••nd that he believed the pending bill was stronger in the senate than any compromise measure that could be substituted for it

It is not true that the President has yielded an inch. Mr. Cleveland's position is that he diu his duty by submitting his views to congress in his message and it is now for that body to legi late upon its own judgment

When the senate convened Senator Voorhees offered a moiion lor closure. It was almost identical with the motion offered by Senator Hill some time ago providing that a time for voting shall be fixed after thirty days' debate. This was another straw to show how the wind blew. It was a cold wind for the filibusters and they shivered. The motion went over ana the senate went into executive session. All sorts of rumors arose when the doors were closed. Some were that the chief and final debate for closure would take place in secret conslave some that the terms of concessions were being agreed to some that the financial situation would not be 3iscussed at all. L'p to 3 o'clock, when ihe e.. ecutive session was still on, no iefiuitu information had been obtained. at the silverites realize their impending doom was shown to-day when Senator Dubois declared that there uouid be no attempt to prevent a vote on a proposition for the repeal bill to ^o into effect, Jan. 1, 1695. This is more than he has ever conceded before. During the executive session of the senate Senators Gray :iid Co -krell, representing the

IUI wings of the democratic majority, left the chamber and held a consultation in Mr. Cockrell's room, during which they discussed the compromise bill submitted to Secretary Carli-le yesterday. he cabinet is also in session this afternoon discussing the situation. I nfortunately for the public it takes several hours for information of cabinet transactions to filter through the walls.

I here is a report current to-day that much of this delay of the senate is due to speculations of several senators. There is no doubt among those supposed to know that certain senators have a great deal of money out on margins for various securities whose VPlues will I affected by the senate's action. According to one story a group of silver senators, believing fully in the success of their side, had sold short a great many thousand shares, and learning in the last few days of their inevitable defeat had bei'ged their olleagues to postpone the fall of the ax till they should have iiai an opportunity to cover their shorts and get in on the other side. There is a certain lobbyist here who is intrusted with these senatorial orders and who places them in his own name. He was here yesterdav and after along confab with his principal went into the seclusion of a long distance telephone box and worked the line for an hour. Last night he went to New York and is now presumably in Wall street doing his best to get his grave and reverend patrons out of a hole.

It is believed that some of therepeal senators appealed to by their "short" colleagues have not only agreed to delay action for a day or two but are taking a few flyers themselves. Their opportunities for prostituting their great positions are many, and there is no doubt many of them embrace their opportunities. Like Oscar Wilde, they can resist anything but temptation. Meanwhile the country will wait.

Crowds thronged the corridors dur ing the executive session. The debate of the past few days has been very interesting, and there is a struggle for advantageous positions. Representatives forsook the house to listen to those senators who can be interesting when excited. The latter appear to enjoy the interest they excite. They know that upon them the whole financial and commercial worlds are gazing. The telegrams received by them show, too, that the public is fully awake and angry.

VAN ALEN COXFIKSIED.

Senateln Execnt ive Session Acts Favorably on the Nomination. WASHINGTON, Oct 21.—The senate in executive session late this afternoon took favorable action on the nomination of ,T. J. Van Allen, favorably reported to be ambassador to Italy. Speeches both for and against confirmation were made the charges being those set out in the newspapers. The silver question was not mentioned and the democratic caucus committee was in the senate chamber all the time, save a short period when Messrs Gray, Gorman and Cockrell were in the room of the committee on appropriations for a conference of half an hour. At 2:45 a motion was made to send the Van Alen nomination back to the committee, but a motion to lay that motion on the table was carried. Mr. Van Alen was then confirmed by a vote of 39 to 22.

The senate also confirmed the nomination of Kilbreth for collector of customs of New York.
