Represented First Virginia District.
Judge Sener served in the Forty-third
Congress as a republican, representing the
first Virginia district. Born at Fredericks-
burg. he received an academic education
there. He then went to the University OF
Virginia state student and graduated
in several of the departments. He studied
law at the Lexington, Va, Law School
under Judge j. w. BrockenbrOugh, and was
admitted to the bar in 1860 Physical dis
abilities prevented young Sener from par
ticipating actively in the civil war. Dur
ing the period of that conflict, however,
he served as correspondent of the Southern
Associated Press with Gen. Lees army. At
the close of the war he assumed the editor
ship of the Fredericksburg Leader. Judge
Sener was a delegate to the national
publican convention in Philadelphia in
1872, and year later was nominated for
Congress- from his home district and elect
ed by majority of about 300 votes over
his democratic opponent.
Territorial Chief Justice
Retiring from Congress, Mr.. Sener was
appointed by President Hayes in 1878 chief
justice of Wyoming territory, serving in
that judicial capacity until 1882. After
leaving the bench Judge Sener came back
east and practiced his profession here in
Washington and before the Virginia courts.
He also engaged in newspaper work at
times. He served member Of the board
of visitors to Mount Vernon and compiled
an authentic history of Virginia, especially
with reference to the Mount Vernon estate
At the time of his death Judge Sener was
president of the general alumni association
of his alma mater-the University of Vir-
ginia.

Talking of hair restorers," said the captain Of a steamer who has been a whaler. none of them is tn 1t with the air of the arctic regions. A man with thin hair who falls to get a new crop if he goes within the arctic circle is a hopeless case. I have seen whalers who got bald when they stayed at home for a year or two and got new crop of. hair every time they went to- ward the north pole on a whaling eUpe- duion.
 How do I account for 1t? The far ther you go north the land animals get shaggier. It is a provision against the cold. When the arctic winter ap- breaches. the reindeer. the bears and other animals get a thicker coat of hair or fur. Similarly the hair on the hu- man head thickens when you go far north.
 'It is a fact Now, I don't want you to think that once the follicles of the hair are dead new hair always comes, even In northern regions. Sometimes, when a man is apparently as bald as a billiard ball, the follicles are not dead, and there is hope for him."-Phil- adelphia Ledger.

COST OF TRAIN LUXURY.
The Reason That Railway PasssngoF
 Rates Are So High.


 Rates Are So High.
 It may be asked why the railway lo- eomouve does not pull passengers at lower rate. Because it gives pas s.uzers SO much room. comfort and high speed that it has to carry a ton or dead weight for each passenger. A locomotive weighing 100 tons pulls at 4l miles an hour 12 cars weighing GOO tons and containing 760 people weigh ing SO tons. assuming the passenger Co be men. women and children, but chiefly men. and co average 181 pounds each: I40O pounds of dead weight per passcuger when every seat Is taken But cars cannot average moro than scveu-tenths tuR
 The railway carries free the pas seueers 15O pound trunk and sends with him toilet rooms. heating stoves and fuel smoking rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms. These houses on wheels and the locomotive which draws them have to be made very heavy in order to get the great strength made neoes- sary by high speed.
 IT the railway could dispense with these comforts and luXuries and carry passengers packed closely Inside and on top of low rOofed ramshackle. un- heated vehicles like the old stage and at slow speed it could pull passengers at one-tenth to one-twenueth the price  of the old stage-Engineering Maga- yfnn
