birth. and farm work occupied his
time when not engaged in fortifying
himself with intellectual training.
Later in life he attended the Millers-
Vile state normal school and Ursinus
College, both well-known Pennsylvania
institutions
During the winter OF 'GS and '69 he
taught school. After course OF study
he was graduated as physician IN
March, 1878, from the medical depart
ment OF the University of PennsylVa-
MIA. He returned TO Chester county
Spring City, where he now resides,
and began the practice OF medicine
and continued as practitioner until
1885, when he accepted position as
medical examiner for the relief depart
ment OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. which position he held for
nearly two years, from February, 1886.
He served as postmaster OF Spring
CITY from October. 1888, until August
1855. Senator Snyder has always taken
a lively interest in politics, and has
been an active worker in all OF the
campaigns OF his party. In 1887 he
was nominated for prOthonotary OF his
county and was elected by large ma
iOrity and served In that office until
January 1891. The year preceding his
REIMBURSEMENT of the office he was
made chairman OF the county Repub-
lican committee. At the county prl-
maries in the fall of 1890 while serv-
ing as prOthOnOtary, he was nominated
for member of the house and was
elected. He was a delegate from CheS-
ter to the Republican state gubernato-
rial convention in 1878 and to the
state convention that nominated Gen
eral James A. Beaver for governor in
1882. In 1892 Mr.. Snyder was elected to
the senate. In the session of 1895 he
was chairman OF the committee on
health sanitation, and In 1897 chair
man OF the committee on railroads.
In 1896 he was reelected to the senate
by nearly 5000 majority, having re-
ceived nearly twice as many votes as
his Democratic and Prohibition oppo-
nents combined.
At the opening Of the session of 1899
he was elected president pro tenn, and
filled the position with dignity, credit
and acceptability, as he did in 1901.
During the campaign OF 1900 a deter
mined effort was made by the Demo
Gratis and Independents to defeat Mr..
Snyder for election to third term,
but he won by a plurality Of over 100,

No more popular man sat in the
chair OF president pro TEN. Of the state
senate a fact which was attested by
his second election as presiding ofti.
Ger. a distinction rarely accorded to q
senator At the session or 1903 he was
chairman OF the committee Of apprOpria,
tions During his legislative career Mr..
Snyder was conspicuous as cham
pion Of the interests of the farmers OF
Pennsylvania. He was an ardent, con
sistent and determined advocate of
legislation to protect the pure butter
interests. He stood like stone wall
against the efforts OF the oleomarga-
rine trust, and was largely responsible
for the passage OF laws advocated by
the butter and dairy men. Were II
not for the efforts of men like Senator
Snyder. the farmers OF Pennsylvania
would today be at the mercy Of the

for occupancy by the first Monday In
October The wainscoting is practi-
cally completed and on the interior OF
the building but little more remains
to be done than to hang the doors and
complete the balustrado at the stair

natural wood yellow pine being used.
The beautiful finish taken on by this

rational convention, and therefore IL
is essential that there shall be an
overwhelming Republican majority
rolled up in Pennsylvania this fall
Such a majority will be considered
as Pennsylvania voice in behalf OF
continuance OF the present era OF pros
perity and an emphatic protest against
any and all attempts at tarifr tinkering:
In other words, such verdict will be
accepted to mean that Pennsylvania
is in favor of letting well enough
alone: a policy which, II pursued, will
prevent business disturbances and
the consequent Inauguration Of a pc

horse that stepped in a hole with his
front foot, coming down the mountain
with trail of props, and fell forward
and strained his shoulder blade. That
it swelled 50 fast that we could hardly
get the collar off, and in two hours his
neck was swollen to all the skin would
hold We used your White Liniment

A FIRST CLASS
ATTRACTION

An event Of much Importance Is the
announcement of the coming OF "Tess

rangement with Harrison Grey Fiske,
at the Opera House for Friday even
ing. This IL the late Lorrimer Stod-
dard's dramati2ation of Thos. Har-
dy's already famous novel, which ran
for go long at the Manhattan Theatre,
New York City. A critic speaking Of
its author said, Hardy draws real
men and women and preserves his
faculty OF seeing the touch OF humor
In the most narrowing situations.
The action takes place on English
soil and the play deals with an epoch
In the life of Tess, of the ancient fam
lily of D'Urbervilles, wild and pas
sionRte child of nature, whose great
est fault is her devotion TO her fam
lily 1t is said to be intensely interest
ing, holding its audiences as IL in a
spell throughout its five scenes. The
complete stage equipment that was
used during its metropolitan run is
being carried by the company and Mr..
Frank Burt, who is directing the tour,
has hesitated at nothing to attain the
essentially realistic effects and char
acter work demanded by the play.
Prominent on the program OF Keene
inventor magician, are the Nevarro
children. These juvenile artists are
making q decided hit everywhere by
their clever singing and remarkable
toe e-danoing.
Another strong feature is the refin-
ed speciality Of Trewetz, the musical
wonder, who keeps the audience in a
royal good hnmor by his mastery of
numerous musical Instruments TIE
wetz has the happy faculty of drawing
sweet music from objects which would
fail to respond to the touch of the
average mortal.
These features, added to the remark
able work OF Keene himself, form a
combination that is hard to excel as
al entertainer.
Keene will appear in this city on
Wednesday evening, September 30th.
Next Thursday night. October lst,
the newest melodramAtic success,
THE Johnstown Flood" from the pen
OF the successful author, Mr. Charles

THE BRIDEGROOM's TIP.

There is a young clergyman near
Hagertown Md, who might be, excused
for saying the guilelessness of some
rural gentry passeth AL understand
ing"
A young couple with matrimonial in
tent, fresh from the green fields of
their rural homes, went recently to the
parsonage of the clergyman in ques-
ton. The nuptial knot was tied. In
the pause which followed the newly
made benedict looked even more en-
barrassed than before. He fished
about in his trousers pocket as if look
ing for something.
Whats the price," he finally blurt-
ed out.
THE State allows me a dollar" said
the clergyman, but" and paused.
Some pauses are more eloquent than
words. Evidently this was not
well" finally remarked the groom,
as he handed the astonished divine a
quarter. IF the State allows you a
dollar, take this and the job will have
netted you a dollar and a quarter.

MATERIAL OF THE BRAIN.

Whether it be the brain cell of a glow
worm or one trembling with the har-
monies of Tristan and Isolde, the stuff
it is made of is much the same; it is a
difference of structure, apparently,
rather than of material And the chem
ical difference between brain or nerve
cell and that of the muscles or the skin
seems reducible mainly to a difference
in the proportion of two substances
water and phosphorus. Lean beef, for
example, is from 20 to so per cent water
the brain is from 80 to 95 per cent water
And a brain or nerve cell may contain
from five to ten times as much phos-
phorus as, let us say, the cells of the
liver or the heart. The actual quantity
is, of course, extremely small-by
weight but a fraction of l per cent.
About three pounds avoirdupois of
this very complex phosphorized stuff
make up an average human brain.
There is a lot more of it distributed
down ones spinal column, and little
plexuses all over the body, wherever
"a group of muscles are to be moved,
and others still, the sensory or feeling
nerves, which are everywhere. It is
hard to find a cubical half inch outside
the bones where they are not.-New
