San Francisco, Feb. 7. A Chrot-
iolo special from Chioo, sayr:
What might have proved a very dis
astrous wreck, but was fortunately un
attended bv loss of life, occurred ut
Iord, about eij;ht mile9 from Chico,
early this morning. The northbound
Oregon express, being 15 minutes be-
hiud time, the southbound train was
ordered to sidetrack at Nord and wait
for tho northbound to pass. As the
train pulled up on the side track, it
was found that, as a box car had been
left standing, it was necessary for the
express to slacken speed and push the
box car ahead. Just then the north
bound train was seen approaching
down the track with no intention of
stopping. It was impossible for the
engineer or the northbound to see the
headlight of the southbound, as it was
behind the box car. Before all the
cars of No. 16 could get on the side
track, the other train struck them.
The engine struck the smoker first.
plowing its way along to the next car,
which was the tourist car, turning it
completely over, but leaving the trucks
on the track. In this car, the passen
gers were thrown from their seats to
the lower side of tho car, which was
lying in a deep pool of water alongside
of the track. The passengers at first
thought they had been throw from a
trestle into some river.
In this car were seven doserters from
tho regular army, handcuffed together
and guarded bysix soldiers. Fortun
ately, tho lamps in the car immed
iately went out, and only a few coals of
fire fell from the stove, and those were
soon extinguished by the water that
came rushing through the broken
windows.
CAN SEE THBOCGH THE BODY.
Edison Alakes a New and Valuable Dis
covery. New York, Feb. 8. Thomas A.
Edison is about to give to the world
another discovery as wonderful in its
way as the fluoroscope, by means of
-which he puts the X ray-to practical
use in revealing the bony structure of
the body.
"It was," said he, "the action of the
X ray on crystals of platinocyanide of
barium which caused Roentgen to
make the original discovery. I immedi
ately afterwards discovered that tung-
state of calcium was more powerful and
I constructed a practical instrument
for utilizing the crystals in connection
with the X ray. Tungstate of calcium
is not sufficiently sensitive to trans
form the strange light discovered by
Roentgen to a light that would so il
luminate the interior of the human
body as to render its most delicate
tissues visible, in other words, to make
it transparent."
Mr. Edison set about to find a crystal
which would possess the quality. He
has discovered one. Its name he will
not yet reveal, saying he is still
experimenting with it, and desires to
exhaust its possibilities befc
nouncing it to the world.

To Carry Big (Sticks.
Tacoma, Wash., Feb. 6. An order
for 100 41-foot fiat cars of 70,000 pounds
capacity has been placed at the South
Tacoma car shops, and it is expected
that the order would be increased to
1000-cars. These cars are being con
structed to carry sticks of greater
length and weight than can be carried
on the present cars. It is expected
that the Union Pacific will place a
large order for general freight cars,
as cars of that description can be con
structed much cheaper on tho coast
that at any Eastern point.

INDIAN NAME?
Irfmdon
Kewspapcrs Find Their Spalllaf
Matter ot DiOI-ulty
The London newspapers occasion
considerable mirth to their Indian con
temporaries by the spelling of Indian
'vords. It appears that, in reference
to the native princes and noblemen
who were present at the opening of
the Imperial institute, we tried to
strike out on an original line, but were
only able to spell '("a-jkwar" in seven
different ways, and "llhownugger" in
four. Indian papers, it seems, are not
wholly sue cestif ul. We still occasionally
see 'Tuna" and "Poona," "Hindu" and
"Hindoo," "Dacoit" and "Dakait," and
bo on, "according to the taste and fancy
of the speller.
Jn n supplement to the Bombay Gov
ernment Gnzettc we now have a re

to." In this list, while retaining sucli
monstrosities as Itirulckazhikkunram,
Suncaraperumalkoyil, Gannamanaynk
kanur and Ammayanayakkanur, a
large proportion of the popular ver
sions are retained, with the thin dis
guise of a "K" for a "C." Three-ai. 1
twenty out of tho thirty-six pages of

of place-names "in which the system
of transliteration has been followed,"
and a wonderful list it is.
A Joke Tried by Jury.
A North Carolina paper tells the
following: At Harnett county superior
court, a few years since, Judge Shipp
presiding, the trial of a cause had been
protracted till near midnight. The
jury wns. tired and sleepy and showed
lla.r;nn;T uttention. Willie Murchi.on,
wiio v.-a3 addressing the jury, thoi:.--ht
to arouse them, so he said: "Gentle
men, I will tell you an anecdote."- In
stantly the judge, tho jury and the few
spectators pricked up their ears and
were till attention, as Murchison was
admirable in that line, had- a fund of
anecdotes and no one could tell ihem
better. But he sotm proceeded to tell
one of the dullest, prosiest and most
pointless jokes possible. Everybody
looked disappointed. The judge, lean
ing over, said in an unmistakable tone
of disappointment: "Mr..Mr.rchison, I
don't see the point to that joke." "Nor .
I, either," replied the witty counsel. '
"But your honor told it to me on our '
way down here and as I thought tho
lack of appreciation must bs due to my
obtusencss I concluded to (five the joke
a trial by jury."
