They were held in the highest esteem, and their departure from the city was a source of keen regret, but 1t was believed that the change would do Mrs. Snyder good, and this hope was justified in the letters which came from them in- mediateiy after their arrival in Pulaski. Mrs. Snyder seemed to improve greatly and her condition was most hopeful until late Saturday night, when she became se- riousiy i'll. Death came early yesterday morning.
 Mrs. Snyder had not been in good health since the sudden death of her daughter, Mrs. Omwake. formerly Miss Netcher Snyder. which occurred in Green castle, Pa, something over two months ago. She suffered 6, great shock at that time, and never recovered. She was 62 years of age and a woman whose beauty and depth of character were reflected in thousand ways.

JsYerson Makes a Record.

Jefferson County has just made a re- cord in the matter of paying taxes which is unparalleled in the history of Alabama and perhaps in the entire United States.
 Taxes were paid in full on every piece of taxable property in the county. The full significance of this will be under stood when 1t fs remembered that Jeffer- son County pays one-sixth of the entire taxes of the State, and that the amount collected for 1902, the collections for which period has now closed amount to approximately A75,ooo.
 The assessed valuation Of all property in the county Is about s45. 100000. and that the taxes on all of this has been collect ed and that 1t has not been necessary to sell a single piece of property. is a mar vicious tribute to the prosperity of the county and the general appreciation of the increasing Value of property within its borders.
 County Tax Collector J. B. Francis. whose untiring attention to the duties of the once has had much to do with the wonderful showing here presented, will settle with the State tomorrow at Montgomery. paying into the treasury $8 100 balance.

Selma and its environment were the scenes of heavy rainfall yesterday after noon and of slighter precipitation last night and this morning. The rain of yes- terday afternoon was of short duration but was a drencher.
 Farmers report that the rain was need ed and that 1t has helped both cotton and corn The corn especially needed water.
 Prominent planters report that though the cotton crop is about two weeks late 1t is far from being ruined and that with ordinarily favorable conditions it should easily make good.

RING WORM AND DANDRUFF.
They are Each Caused by a Pestifer'
 ous Germ.

Ring worm and dandruff are somewhat similar in their origin; each Is caused by a parasite. The germ that causes dan druf digs to the root of the hair. and saps Its vitality, causing falling hair, and finally badness. Without dandruff there would never be badness, and to cure dan druff 1t is necessary to kill the germ. There has been no hair preparation that would do this until the discovery of Newbros Herpicde, which positi yely kills the dandruff germ, allays itching instantly and makes hair glossy and soft as silk.
