ALL FOR SWISHER
SAYS SEN. SNYDER
Republicans of Ohio County
Are Lining Up SolidIy for
the Nominee.

Senator Jacob Snyder, OF Wheel
ing, who a few years ago represented
the first senatorial district in the
state senate and who is an astute and
far-seeing Republican politician, is a
prominent city business visitor
Senator Snyder always has few
moments of spare time to devote to
politics on his visits here and never
fails to express himself plainly on
the issues OF the day and the sItua-
ton as he finds 1t.
"Swisher is my man." exclaimed
Senator Snyder. 81 was not for him
at first, but l do not believe in rump
conventions, and now purpose to
take of my coat and do my best to
bring about his triumphant election.
They can not beat Charley Swlsher.
"Swlsher Is the nominee OF the on
ly Republican state convention. The
other was simply a rump affair. And
Swisher as the nominee of the Re-
publican party OF this state Is en-
titled to the solid vote of the party. 4"
Asked about the situation in Ohio
county, Senator Snyder replied:
I'VE are all for Swisher now.
Hundreds upon hundreds of Repub-
licans have so declared themselves
since his nomination and there is not
one in hundred who takes any stock
in the rump convention. Instead
they are all condemning that action
and openly declaring themselves for
Swisher. Like myself they were not
all for him at first but they are now. +"

at the time.
The caller Of yesterday was met by
Mrs. Shippy and she was in the hall
when the anarchist entered today.
She ran into another room when tne
struggle began, after calling upon her
son to assist his father. Foley had
stopped the chiefs horse and buggy in
front Of the residence and was going
to take the chief down to the latter's
Office. Several neighboring physicians
were summoned to the house immedl-
ately after the shooting to attend
Foley and the chiefs son. Foley was
at once sent to hospital and Harry
shlppy was also taken there after his
fathers reluctance to having him
moved had been overcome.
The young man, who is 21 years
old, and a student at Culver Military
academy, Culver, Ind, is the most
dangerously hurt of the three. Two
bullets pierced his chest and the sur
geons In attendance made no effort to
conceal the gravity of his condition,
Squads Of policemen we're sent to the
chiefs home and the assistant chief
was summoned to take charge OF the
investigation which is following the
shooting. Mayor Busse ordered de-
tectives sent to the undertaking rooms
to which the body of the anarchist
Was removed, and told the officers to
arrest any one who came there at
tempting to identify the corpse. Up
to late hour no one had called at
the rooms.
A crowd of curiosity seekers gath
cred about the place and at one time
became so importunate that the po-
licemen on guard were obliged to use
force in keeping the crowd back.

Masslllon, o., March 2.-The water

most totally unawares by the turbid

TEACHING BABY TO WALK.
BY Or. Maude Kent
Editor Medical Department, "Ameri-
can Housekeeper."


Never encourage a baby TO try TO
walk II 'he seems unwilling TO learn.
The sockets OF the joints are very
shallow In tiny children, and the
bones 80 feeDly connected that they
are easily dislocated. Besides which,
bowed legs are much easier to avoid
than to cure, and standing before the
legs are strong enough to bear the
weight OF the body may result in per.
manent deformity. that will cause
constant regret.
About the ninth or tenth month the
first attempt usually is made to place
the child on its feet. At the eleventh
or twelfth month the child will stand
with some assistance. The first at
tempts at walking are seen about the
thirteenth month. The average age
at which children walk alone is about
the fifteenth or sixteenth month.
Much depends upon the surroundings.
A great difference is seen In different
families I'm regard TO time OF walking.
Previous sickness may retard walk
ing, or, most common OF all. the con-
dition OF the bones known az ricketts,,
In some instances spinal disease may
be the cause.
Massage OF the hips and legs for To-,
minutes after the morning bath. is
the best external treatment; pour q
teaspoonful Of olive oil into the palm
Of the hand and do not massage very
rapidly or vigorously. The even. nrn
pressure Is the best motion In case
of this sort, and combines a soothing
effect and the desired stimulation of
the circulation.
Twice day give half teaspoonful
OF scott's Emulsion. The combination
Of the oil and hypophosphitss OF lime
and soda win assist the other food TO
build bono Tissue rapidly. and u
equally necessary where the spinal
nerves are diseased.
