RED SNYDER NO MORE.

The Late Prominent Farmer Sudden ly Expires Early Wednesday Morning While Yet in Bed His Death

Due to Paralysis A Shock to the Community. On Wednesday morning a report was current to the effect that, tho protuinc ut flintier Redden 13. Snyder had died ••very B-icl.ieuly during the night before, ami for a tune people were inclined to look upon Uie awful newB :is a practical joke. It proved however to be only too true ami we ire called upon to note the death ui one of .Montgomery county ^inost enterprising farmers and aiubiliou3 men. The account of his death as we get it is about ae follows. Kor several days he had been complaining of feeling poorly, but nothing serious was anticipated. On the night of hi6 death ho had complained as usual and had requested that his wife retire as stio had been loosing so much rest in waiting on her mother, Auut Sally Cray, whose death also we record in this issue. Tho request was complied with and they retired at about nine o'clock. He went to sleep and .vas observed during the night as being in a sound sleep. At about four o'clock on Wednesday morning his wife was awakened by a gurtrling sound and supposing that, he was having a night mare she shook him. He failed to awake and becoming alarmed she turned on the lights and made a heroic effort to resusitate hiin but to no avail, he had passed away. A messenger was eent to tins city summoning Dr. Ensminger who hastened out to the home I place lour miles northwest of here only tu find him dead. His sudden taking I ofl iB a great shock to the community as

Red Snyder was a friend to every one. His home has long been noted as a friends resort and although a strong partisan he never permitted iiis social feelings to become concerned. In 1884 he gave a big dinner and among tho many truests were Vice President Hendricks, Senator Joseph A. McDonald, Secretary of State Myers and many other prominent Democrats. Prom time to time have such dinners been eiven in liia palatial home as well as numerous oth"r gatherings and never will they faue away from memory as will the vision of their genial originator. Mr. Snyder poseeMed a moBt remarkable disposition and waa never known to be in ill huiar.,- towards anyone, but to the contrary was clever and accomodating.

During the time that farmers began erecting signs on their farms forbiding hunting, Mr. Snyder had erected on his place a large and attractive sign bear ing the cheerful invitation of "Wanted men to hunt on this farm, when the bell rings come to dinner." That was but a slight example of his warm heartednenB and in the future he will be sadly missed. The wonderful hospitalities of that rural home will never be forgotten. Mr. Snyder was CO years of age and for years has been an important factor in the success of the Montgomery County Fairs. His surving wife has the sympathy of the entire community in her doubly sad bereavement.

A Railroad Dumntft Suit. On Wednesday John [Olmore tiled a damage suit against the Monon Railway Company for tho sum of 1.000. The cause of such a suit was that at the time of the fatal wreck near by his house the dead and mangled wore brought there, thus turning it into a morgue ami hospital. He further cla'ime that in the phuflle some of hifi household furniture decamped and that all hi6 ready change had gone out for the purchases of medicines for which the said Railway company has never liquidated In fact his grievances are numerous and his damages great. Therefore he requests tho Court to have them fork over a cold and cruel $1,000. '1 he outcome of the case is looked to with interest as the company will enter a strong defence, Hlmoro it is said was paid by the road for the house and in with defeat.
