voted for Colonel Quay for United
States senator until the end OF the ses-
sion. This action was made an issue
before the Republicans OF his district
and he won by an overwhelming vote
CHESTER COUNTY SOLID.
Another county went on record last
Saturday on this same issue. The en-
tire delegation from Chester county to
the next legislature came up before the
Republicans Of that county at the pri-
mary election on that day. At the
head Of the ticket was State Senator
w. P. Snyder, who is president pro
tenn. OF the state senate. and who act
ed and voted with the stalwart Repub-
licans on the United Sta1Is senatorship
throughout the entire Session of the
legislature. Senator Snyder had been
threatened with opposition for renom-
ination unless he deserted the caucus
nominee for United States senator last
winter, but when the time came to
spring this opposition the insurgents
weakened. They found that the senti-
ment of the Republicans Of Chester
county was against them and in favor
Of majority rule. No effort was made
to oppose DR.. Snyder's denomination
when. the time for registration Of
candidates came around. and he had a
walkover at the primary election. His
election by large majority is assured.
The candidates nominated for the as
sembly are all stalwart Republicans.
They are: Northern district w. p.
Coryell, North Coventry; Eastern dis
trict, Thomas Lack, West Chester;
Southern district, Fred H. Cope, Lin
coin. and Western district, James G.
Fox, Cain. They are all popular In the |
districts, and there can be |
no doubt about the election Of the en-
tire ticket. This will mean a gain OF |
'our votes for the regular state Repub-
lean organization from this county
alone, as the county was represented
n the last house by two Democrats and
wo insurgents, who co-operated with
he Democrats during the entire ses-
ion under the leadership OF Finn, of
and Martin, of Philadelphia.

LIFE IN ENGLAND IN 1886.
A Letter which Tells How Folks In
Those Days Passed the Time.

In the year 1885 there was housefnl
at certain English country place in the
autumn. II consisted of an elderly dow
ager and her two unmarried daughters. a
member Of parliament, two young otli-
GERS and a clergyman, the writer Of a
letter which has been handed down to
this generation. The letter tells how they
passed their time. There were, besides,
occasional visitors in the ncighborhood.
The first night Of his arrival the writer,
fatlgued by his journey, went to bed ear
ly. In the morning he got up betimes In
order TO enjoy the air. The house, how
ever. was still locked up. Not single
servant was down. Presently boy ap-
peared. who told him that Mr.. LIS gen
tlemen" had entertained the visitors
gentlemen" at cards till In the morn
Ing.
At IL o'clock the party began TO appear
one by one for breakfast. The dowager
and Mrs. L., the hostess, did not come
down because, as the young ladies put t.,
they could not be ''made up" 50 early.
The girls themselves, who had not taken
the trouble to make up" were in rum
pied nightcaps and their hair 'in n brown
paste" over their shoulders. The gentle
men 'joincd with the second teapot" n
very odd way of dividing the meal. Their
heads were still ''in disorder" from the
gin punch Of the night.
Breakfast was got through about I.
The weather being rainy, the gentlemen
played billiards and cards. The writer
would have sought refuge in the library,
but found that the books were for show
and not for use. A box OF things from n
London dressmaker having providcntially
arrived, everybody-men and women to-
gether-spcnt the afternoon in discussing
chiffons.
At they dined. At o the men joined
the ladies', and they sat down to cards.
Farthlng loo was the favoritc game when
the young ladies played. On Sunday some
OF them went to church. The young pco-
pie nodded and laughed all through the
service. They sat in gallery by them
selves; they cracked nuts and peltcd each
other with the shells, while one of them,
who could draw, made caricaturcs of the
country people down below. The clergy
man, however was great fayorte at
the house, because he kept the ladies ac-
